Graphology – Your writing can reveal everything!

A good handwriting is what you are. Mahatma Gandhi has said in his autobiography The Story of My Experiments with Truth that bad handwriting is a sign of imperfect education. Good handwriting or the lack of it can reveal more truths about than what just meets the eye.

For ages now, graphologists have used handwriting—called as handwriting analysis— as a tool to understand what lies under you and what defines you. Handwriting analysis is used to identify, evaluate and understand a person’s personality. Experts say how you write your “p”s and “q”s and dot your “i” and cross your “t”s say a lot about how you think and behave.

Although handwriting analysis is a debatable science, handwriting experts have used it extensively to determine a person’s nature and personality traits, physical, emotional and mental states. One cannot deny the fact that handwriting is a brain print—you write on paper what and how you think. Your brain decides what and how you write.

Research over five decades has proved that emotions guide you on paper. On your personality, researchers say writing reveals our identity, our health, and whether or not we are intoxicated.

Handwriting experts say there are basically five types of handwriting—

1. Even all around: where your handwriting is even and common at all places in the page.
2. The second type of handwriting is an overly wide left margin where your handwriting wider when you begin on the line thinning while extending on the end.
3. The third type of writing is overly wide right margin which is opposite of the second type.
4. Too wide all around is the fourth kind where you write bolder giving wider space between words and spaces revealing the pressure within you and
5. Finally, the fifth one is narrow lower margin which shows you’re afraid or confused.

There are four more types of handwriting—although these are common, they are actually far and few writers of this kind.

1. Uneven Left Margin shows you are not a confident writer. You think while writing but unable to put them in words.
2. No Margins at All- also shows how you try to pack in more information within the available space.
3. Wide Lower Margin is a kind of inverted pyramid style where you reveal the important information in the top trying to reduce the impact on the bottom.
4. Crushed Wide Right Margin shows the anger in you.
