Can you tell what a person’s handwriting looks like?

The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle pointed out that handwriting reflects a person’s personality. Phrography is the science of handwriting.

The same characteristics based on handwriting characteristics:

1. The weight of handwriting determines a person's personality and work ability.

2. Letter size, such as capital letters that are too large, fonts that are too large or too small, prove the intention and desire for personality expression. Abuse of arcs and flower suffixes indicate certain limitations in self-perception and mental state. People who are meticulous and organized often have these characteristics in their handwriting - clear and complete letters and accurate punctuation.

3. Uneven lines are the handwriting of a witty and cunning person.

4. Angular handwriting indicates firm views and intentions, and a tendency to intensify conflicts; smooth handwriting indicates a sophisticated and easy-going personality.

Judge a person’s character based on the above characteristics.

First of all, look at the weight of the strokes. The weight of the strokes is even and moderate, indicating stability, self-control, and the ability to be fascinated by the things you like.

People with uneven strokes like to destroy, have a bad temper, and get sad over trivial things.

People with heavy strokes are sensitive; people with light strokes have low self-confidence and like to blame themselves.

Lines of text can also speak volumes.

Straight lines indicate stability, while ups and downs indicate diplomacy and good at discovering the weaknesses of others.

The more you write, the upward slope indicates strong self-esteem; the downward slope indicates a depressed temperament.

Large font size indicates the ability to express oneself under extreme conditions, overconfidence and casual behavior; small font size indicates restraint, calculation and observation.

People with compact handwriting are stingy and cautious.

Looking at psychology from handwriting

Many scholars in ancient my country and Western European countries have long studied the relationship between handwriting and psychology. It is said that "characters are like people", that is, a person's handwriting has a certain relationship with personality and psychological state. For example: Zongze, the famous anti-gold general in Beijing, saw the handwriting of Yue Fei Long Feifeng Wu and said: "This is an extraordinary thing", so he promoted Yue Fei to the army.

In recent years, "graphology" has been recognized as a branch of psychology in some developed Western countries, and many prestigious universities have made it an elective course. On the basis of inheriting the reasonable elements of ancient "graphology" and modern Western European graphology theory, some scholars continue to explore and study handwriting and writing activities from different angles such as physiology, linguistics, sociology, and calligraphy art. Put forward the perspective of psychological analysis of handwriting. The application scope of relevant theories of handwriting psychological analysis is also becoming wider and wider. For example: More than 300 companies in the United States have hired graphologists as consultants. They believe that the psychological state of applicants can be understood through handwriting analysis. Applying handwriting analysis method to the company's recruitment and management work can enable employees to do work suitable for their own personalities and make the best use of their talents. In addition, many hospitals in the United States also use handwriting to analyze the patient's condition, because the patient's mental state has a lot to do with the condition. Some psychotherapeutic experts believe that "handwriting is the writing of the human brain." For example, when a patient writes with a horizontal line of letters sloping upward from left to right, it indicates that the patient is an optimist and his disease is easier to cure; on the contrary, , if the patient's word space or line space is large, it means that he is a pessimist and should do some ideological work before treatment. Some people also use it as a scientific research technology in criminal investigation and interrogation practice.

William Hitchcock, a famous American psychotherapy expert, has been studying graphology for 20 years. He has a collection of 40,000 handwriting files, from which he has drawn some specific conclusions:

Handwriting is a concrete reflection of a person’s personality, intelligence level and thinking logic. If the weight of the strokes is uniform and moderate, it means that the writer has self-control and stability, and can do his best to complete the work he likes; on the contrary, the writer of uneven strokes is probably a bad-tempered person who likes to destroy, is jealous, and likes to hide behind the scenes. A "conspirator" who makes small moves. People with heavy strokes tend to be more sensitive, while people with too light strokes tend to lack confidence.

Uneven lines are the handwriting of a witty or cunning person; angular handwriting indicates that the writer is a person with a strong will, a clear point of view, and will not change his position, but generally speaking, this kind of person will Argue with those who have different views and become red-faced. On the contrary, people with smooth handwriting are easy-going, sophisticated, able to sing lily, and good at public relations work.

Anyone who writes cleanly on the upper part of the word and can tightly protect the lower part symbolizes being enterprising, receptive and eager to learn. These people are good materials for cultivating leaders.

Anyone who has rich fonts, well-proportioned strokes, and fast writing speed is a person with strong understanding and loyalty to his duties; and a person who is strict, square and strong in the structure of the words is a person with good memory. People who are strong and conscientious in their work; those whose fonts are square and round, long and short, and well-proportioned in size, have strong adaptability and adaptability, and are suitable for communication and public relations work.

Anyone who can imitate other people's handwriting but lacks new ideas has strong reliability but can stand alone; if the handwriting is small and the handwriting is moderate, the Arabic numerals will be beautiful but the signature will appear more formal. He is a person who hides his inner scheming, does not show his emotions and anger, and can deal with major events calmly.

Those who dare to break the rules, find new ways, and seek changes in handwriting are adventurous people; writers who have uneven lines between the lines are diplomatic and good at discovering the weaknesses of others; the more they write, the more they Those who write more and more upwards are optimists, while those who write more and more downwards are pessimists.

Font size is also an expression of personality. People who write in too large fonts are casual, overconfident and hasty; people who write in too small fonts are observant and calculating. People whose handwriting is too compact will be stingy and calculating.

In short, the above theory considers the weight and symmetry of the strokes of the characters, the edges and corners of the handwriting, the speed of writing, the frame structure of the characters, the shape, length and size of the fonts, and the imitation or creativity of the characters. The arrangement and combination of the height, inclination and other characteristics of the word lines can look at people's psychology, and some can even predict the future and life.

Handwriting and Mental Health

We can roughly analyze a person’s personality from his handwriting. For example, the strokes of a person with a strong personality will appear clean, square and hard; while for a person with a weak personality, the handwriting will be relatively weak and much softer. Yang Xiong, a Chinese writer of the Western Han Dynasty, once said: "Books are the heart. The heart draws shapes and distinguishes between evil and right in human beings."

At present, in the West, handwriting analysis has penetrated into all walks of life, such as recruitment, further education, career selection, judicial appraisal and other aspects.

Handwriting psychologists also believe there is a significant link between handwriting and mental health. They can accurately determine the psychological problems of the writer by analyzing the strength and slope of the characters, font and character structure, spaces and blanks, signature style, etc.

Graphologist Yaman divides the results of graphology research into seven categories:

1. The pressure of writing reflects the energy of human spirit and body.

2. The structure of strokes represents the writer’s attitude towards the external world.

3. The size of writing is a reflection of self-awareness.

4. The degree of continuous strokes reflects the coordination of thinking and behavior.

5. The direction of words and word lines reflects human autonomy and social relationships.

6. Writing speed is related to the speed of human understanding.

7. The layout of the entire text reflects the writer's attitude and way of occupying the external world.

Exploring personality and mental health through handwriting is a young science, but it is also an interesting and dynamic undertaking. I believe it can bring us new ideas in the near future. message.
