Discover what your handwriting says about you.Every character you write out on paper is guided by two things: your brain and the motor reflex muscles in your hand. Just as everyone has a unique mind, everyone has a unique handwriting style.
The way you create letters can be analyzed and interpreted to reveal details about your personality.
To analyze your handwriting, you'll need to write down a few phrases that incorporate every letter of the alphabet. So get a piece of plain white, unlined copy paper and a pen and write down the following phrases to use as your go-by for this analysis:
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
"I couldn't believe it when the mad boxer shot a quick, gloved jab to the jaw of his dizzy opponent."
"While making deep excavations, we found some quaint bronze jewelry."
Now let's take a look at what your handwriting says about you.
The Pressure
This is a representation of your emotional energy. Feel the back side of the paper you used. Can you feel the lines from your writing? Is the text particularly dark from the pressure applied?
Typically,
heavy pressure writers are highly successful with high energy levels.
Average pressure represents those with moderate success and energy levels. Light pressure can be a sign of insecurity and frailty.
The SlantWhen you hold the paper straight and look at your writing, does it slant to the right, left or stay relatively vertical?
If it
slants to the right, the writer is usually caring, generous, well-balanced and has no qualms about letting their heart lead their mind.
Left slanted writers are generally quiet and reserved. Sometimes seen as cold or uncaring, these folks have a hard time revealing their emotional state.
Writers with
no slant tend to keep their emotions in check and lead with their minds. These individuals are usually very independent thinkers.
Space Between WordsTake a look at the average width of the letters you've written. If the space between full words is larger than this average width, your handwriting is saying that you crave more personal space and like to keep an emotional distance from others.
If the space is smaller than your average letter width, you either desire much closer contact with others or you have a tendency to overcrowd others.
The Letter IAnalyzing your letter
"I" is pretty simple.
This represents your vision of yourself.
Take a look at the size of your
capital I in the second sentence you wrote down.
If it's much bigger than your other capital letters, this means you have a high opinion of yourself or want others to think highly of you.
The smaller it is in comparison to other capital letters, the lower the opinion you have of yourself.
If the capital "I" is roughly the same size as your other caps, you have a well-balanced view of your self and interact well with others.
The Letter TTake a look at the lower case T's throughout your handwriting sample and see how you typically cross them.
If the
cross is to the left of the stem, you take your time with your decisions, weighing every outcome and making sure you approach situations cautiously.
If the cross generally
resides in the middle of the stem, you are a responsible person who follows most of the rules and is good at managing and delegating to others.
A cross that
balances more to the right represents a reliable, dependable worker with a high potential for leadership.
Handwriting analysis, also known as
Graphology, is a fun and easy way to take a look at how you represent yourself in your mind's eye.
If you'd like to know more, there are plenty of resources available online or at your library with even more in-depth analyses of writing styles and what they mean about you.
And remember, if you're unhappy with what you learn about yourself through your results, you always have the inner strength to change the way you see yourself.
