Destructiveness is the area of dynamic energy. Some authors call it Executive Energy. It stands for force, dynamism, fighting spirit (for any cause). It accumulates energy, basically for self-preservation. If untempered by the Moral faculties, which may direct its innate energy to higher aims, it will express itself in anger, violence, cruelty, vengeance.
Destructiveness is located above the ears; if this faculty is strongly developed, the area above the ears will appear convex.
