Writing is the representation of language in a textual medium through the use of a set of signs or symbols. And the person‘s handwriting express unique movements which have their meaning and interpretations. This analyze the study of handwriting – graphology.
Most of what we know about Graphology dates back over the last few hundred years. The first known book about Graphology was published in 1622 by Camillo Baldi, an Italian doctor of medicine and philosophy. In 1872, Jean Michon published his book on Graphology which became the Authoity on the subject at that time. Soon, European universities started to offer a Ph.D. or Master's degree in graphology. With the advancement of psychology as a profession so did the study of Graphology advance.
One of the most insteresting question is what does descending handwriting show? So I will try to present short review of few: direction of lines, pace of writing and size of letters.
Direct of lines:
- If a person writes in a precisely straight line graphology could say that person is unyeilding.
- People who write in convex lines (a line that ascends then descends) start their project with ambition and enthusiasm only to lose interest and give up before the task has been completed.
- People who write with concave lines (a line that descends than ascends) approach their task with little optimism but gain self confidence as the task nears completion.
- Lines that are ascending steps are often found in people who have little stamina.
- Descending steps are often found in writers who bravely fight off depressive moods.
- Wavy, meandering lines may be indicative of moodiness.
Pace of writing:
- Spontaneous Writing : Ambition, activity, insability, restlessness, impatient, quick thinking.
- Unspontaneous Writing : Inflexibile, cautious, sluggish, plotter, schemer
Size of letters:
- Tall capitals are people who tower above the rest.
- Tall initials come from impressive people.
- Small capitals are people who are modest in nature.
- They concentrate on facts, not ideas.
- Wide letters are extroverted people.
- Narrow letters come from loners.
Finally, it is important to mention that psychology of handwriting has many oppositions. It is hard to prove it is true or no. So everyone should make a desicion about it. But in each day it is being developed and perhaps one day we will habe evidence about handwriting.
