Graphology, a way to determine a person's character by handwriting, has been known for a long time. The first work on this science was published in 1622, it was called "On how you can find out the character and properties of the writer by writing" and belonged to the Italian Camille Boljo. In Boljo's time, work on graphology went unnoticed: at that time, a small percentage of the population could write at all.

Briefly about graphology

In the seventies of the 20th century, graphological examination began to be used in forensic science, when hiring. Today, official psychology also has more accurate methods of diagnosing personality.

Until now, when applying for a job in some companies in the USA and Holland, the applicant writes a resume by hand in order to pass the graphological examination of the employer.

It is quite simple to determine the traits of your own character or the character of loved ones using graphology:

• It is enough to take a white (not lined) sheet of paper or a ballpoint pen (not gel!).
• Write a few lines about yourself in your usual handwriting.
• Then we will examine what has been written according to the following parameters.

Handwriting tilt

Handwriting straight, no tilt

Indicates prudence, restraint, inner harmony. This is what a very balanced person writes.

Slight tilt to the right

The most common type of tilt. This is what open, moderately bold and benevolent people write, who sometimes tend to surrender to impulses. Handwriting speaks of emotionality - its owner cannot always control himself.

Strong tilt to the right

So writes a person of instantly appearing and rapidly dying enthusiasm. A strong tilt to the right speaks of energy, originality and amorousness.

Slight tilt to the left

Indicates masculinity of character. Women with this inclination of handwriting are guided by reason more often than others. They are smart, reasonable.

Strong tilt to the left

In the owner of such a handwriting, there is a struggle between internal emotionality and external restraint.

Tilting sharply "back" indicates that the person is hypersensitive, but very rarely manifests it in people.

Direction of lines

Lines go up

The owner of this handwriting is an optimist. He can be a little childish, naive, childishly spontaneous. Or maybe he is in a particularly good mood today.

The lines run straight and straight

Smooth lines indicate inner discipline. Even if the lines look even on a non-lined sheet, it means that its owner is neat, prudent and collected.

The lines go down

You are in a bad mood. Often the lines go down when we write something boring or sad. If the lines are always downward, chances are the writer is mildly depressed.

Handwriting size

Large handwriting

Such handwriting is found in open, warm-hearted and self-confident people. Often indicates high self-esteem.

Handwriting is too large for people who are fixated on themselves. To put it simply, selfish people.

Medium handwriting

Calm, confident people with adequate self-esteem usually have medium handwriting. If the average size increases towards the end of each line or sentence, its owner is open, independent and free. If the handwriting decreases, on the contrary, the subject wants to hide something.

Small handwriting

Miniature handwriting can be associated with visual impairment. Also, a small, neat handwriting speaks of an analytical mindset, some pedantry and increased attention to detail. Many people with small handwriting are rather shy.

Handwriting shape

Rounded handwriting

Most often found in cheerful and rustic kind-hearted people. Its owner is not too cunning and does not like intrigue. She treats others with an almost maternal concern, understanding and kindness.

Sharp handwriting

Sharp corners can tell us about two things that are often combined: aggressiveness and very high intelligence. Those with a sharp handwriting are often shrewd, cunning, and clever people. Along with this, sharp handwriting is found among not too good-natured people.

Angular handwriting

When the handwriting is not too sharp, but there is some sharpness in it, right angles, even "sticks" of letters - we are talking about an observant person who deeply understands what is happening around. Often such people are good at managing others.

If the angular handwriting is large enough, this indicates a tendency of its owner to manipulate.

Letter tips

If the "tails" of some letters (for example, the letter "P") go down strongly, this indicates sexual activity, passion and strong sex drive.

If the upper "tips" prevail, for example, when writing "b", then the owner of such a handwriting is a spiritual person, "exalted", often a believer.

Accuracy

Scribble

A quick scribble indicates that the wearer is unbalanced. In many cases, scribblers do not have a strict daily routine, go to bed late and wake up late, and work on a nervous job.

Besides, scribbles are the handwriting of geniuses. Most geniuses had absolutely illegible handwriting.

Clear handwriting

The easier it is to read what is written, the stronger and calmer the person is. Clarity of handwriting is found in people with a stable and healthy psyche, in excellent physical shape.

Pressure

Iron the back of the sheet - can you feel the letters?

Medium pressure

It is found among strong-willed, purposeful people. Its owners value themselves quite highly, they know how to keep everything under control.

Weak pressure

It is found in people who are timid and inclined to compromise, who are easy to manipulate. If there is almost no pressure, this may indicate some complexes, low self-esteem.

Are you into psychology?

	Yes, I regularly read something about psychology.
	Sometimes it’s useful to read something, but I’m not looking specifically for books.
	Only in practice!
	I do not need it.

Very strong pressure

It happens with real hedonists. People who push hard on paper when writing live a world of bodily pleasures, sexual experiments and the satisfaction of their animal needs. In addition, strong pressure is often characteristic of people who are emotional and even hysterical.

Graphology is a deep science. Many self-confident individuals sometimes have small handwriting, and shy people have a sweeping one. Therefore, for one hundred percent analysis, contact the specialists - graphologists.
