What Does Your Handwriting Reveal?: The Best Handwriting Analysis Ever

Handwriting analysis is a powerful tool for learning about yourself, what makes you tick, your personality characteristics, and what potential obstacles stand in your way. In addition, it has been used as a compatibility tool for relationships, and as a forensic tool for developing criminal profiles and cracking forgery cases.

Graphology is another name for handwriting analysis. It is the study and analysis of handwriting especially in relation to human psychology. The term is sometimes incorrectly used to refer to forensic document examination. In the medical field, it is used to refer to the study of handwriting as an aid in diagnosis and tracking of diseases of the brain and nervous system.

In this lens, I will discuss the basics of handwriting analysis and provide some resources for learning how to analyze anyone's handwriting yourself using a few simple tools.

The Basic Ideas Behind Handwriting Analysis

Handwriting analysis is based on a few assumptions:

When we write, the ego is active but it is not always active to the same degree. Its activity waxes and wanes; being at its highest level when an effort has to be made by the writer and at its lowest level when the motion of the writing organ has gained momentum and is driven by it.
When the action of writing is comparatively difficult, the writer uses those forms of letters which are simpler or more familiar.
The muscular movements involved in writing are under the direct influence of the central nervous system. The form of the resultant writing movement is modified further by the flexibly assembled coordinative structures in the hand, arm, and shoulder; which follow the principles of dynamical systems. The specific writing organ (mouth, foot, hand,crook of elbow) is irrelevant if it functions normally and is sufficiently adapted to its function.
The neurophysiological mechanisms which contribute to the written movement are related to conditions within the central nervous system and vary in accordance with them. The written strokes, therefore, reflect both transitory and long term changes in the central nervous system such as Parkinson's disease, or alcohol usage.
The movements and corresponding levels of muscular tension in writing are mostly outside of conscious control and subject to the ideomotor effect. Emotion, mental state, and biomechanical factors such as muscle stiffness and elasticity are reflected in a person's handwriting.
One must examine the handwriting or drawing movements by considering them as movements organized by the central nervous system and produced under biomechanical and dynamical constraints. Given these considerations, graphologists proceed to evaluate the pattern, form, movement, rhythm, quality, and consistency of the graphic stroke in terms of psychological interpretations. Such interpretations vary according to the graphological theory applied by the analyst.
Most schools of thought in graphology concur that a single graphological element can be a component of many different clusters, with each cluster having a different psychological interpretation. The significance of the cluster can be assessed accurately by tracing each component of the cluster back to their origins and adapting the meaning of the latter to the conditions of the milieu in which the form appears.

What do the Individual Letters Mean?

The letter "t" has the largest number of interpretations. For example where the horizontal "bar" of the t is placed on the vertical "stem" indicates where one places their goals, while the height of the t stem indicates the potential to accomplish those goals.

* A low "t" bar indicates goals set lower than what can be accomplished.
* A "t" bar high on the stem indicates goals set high.
* A "t" bar that is above the stem indicates setting goals higher than can be accomplished.

If a small "g" is drawn like a figure 8, it indicates a strong sense of humor.

An indented "notch" in the upper oval loop of a small "h" is the result of an arrhythmic heart beat.

A small "r" with a square shape indicates someone who is good with their hands

A small or capital letter E which is drawn with rounded edges like a reverse "3" is known as a "Greek E" and indicates someone who is well read.

The First Graphologist

Prospero Aldorisio is considered to be the earliest graphologist. Aldorisio authored two works about the subject, Idengraphicus Nuntius, and Gelotoscopia, both published in 1611.

Apparently, Aldorisio observed that all writers use varied and different signs in their handwritings, and that certain people tended to display specific handwriting traits. Thus, he came to the conclusion that one could infer specific characteristics and qualities about a person based upon their individual handwriting. Aldorisio called this early form of handwriting analysis "Idenography".

According to Aldorisio, handwriting analysis was useful in predicting when a person would experience accomplishments, dangers, riches, marriages, travels, inheritance, as well as who would be involved in such events. He not only predicted the time (in seasons and months) of these events, but also the well being of the body and mind.
