“Handwriting is civilization’s casual encephalogram.”
–Lance Morrow (American journalist and essayist, b. 1939)

Jennifer and Kevin rarely see eye-to-eye on anything.

Marsha has a tough time holding down a job.

Alice’s emotions are all over the place – all the time!

Sam is not easily influenced and unwilling to compromise.

Would you believe that these personalities are revealed in the person’s handwriting?

Graphology, or handwriting analysis, applies universally to men and women from teen-age to old age; from people of all social and financial and intellectual areas. It is a fascinating way to understand yourself and others. Graphology is the study of the formations of handwriting to diagnose the personality traits. Each person writes in a manner that is unconsciously expressive of his or her individual personality.

The handwriting analyst examines each handwriting in the same way a fingerprint expert does his work, realizing that each person has his or her own unique characteristics.

Graphology has a definite place in personality testing; it is of valuable use in the fields of psychology, personnel selection, and other aspects of personal counseling.

But for the lay person, handwriting analysis can point out the basic traits in order to have better self-understanding.

Consider these examples:

  • When the writing is done with angular formations, the person is more critical and less gullible than the one whose writing is rounded.
  • When the rounded writing is very small and clearly legible it is a sign of a rare combination of a personality that is not aggressive plus a mind that is keen and searching. The heart is sympathetic and cooperative, but the mind is careful and individualistic.
  • The one who writes with a medium pressure of the pen or pencil is usually able to adapt with ease to each situation as it occurs; such a person is neither completely introverted nor extroverted but combines much of each and can be called the ambivert.
  • If the writing pressure is heavier on the horizontal strokes, this is a sign of much will power and a desire for good living. Such writers usually have vital personalities to which other people quickly respond, and so it is good for them to do work when they can deal with people.
  • The mood of the writing is shown in the way the handwriting runs uphill or downhill on the paper.
  • When there is a sudden drop at the end of the line of writing, it reveals the person who is greatly inhibited, unhappy because of temperamental depression, and difficult to understand. Such people generally bring misery to themselves as well as others.
  • When there is an ascending baseline it reveals an optimistic attitude, a “looking up” toward happy times. This person does not become discouraged over each little disappointment which may occur.

I could go on and on. The point is much can be revealed through handwriting analysis.
