Today’s psychology is trying to deepen knowledge about person not only through verbal communication but also through body language, the style of how we behave. Psychologists interested in nonverbal behavior suggest that it can say a lot about personality's traits, interpersonal communication, and characters. This idea can be explained by structure of personality which is composed not only of traits, minds but also different style of behavior.
Graphologists suggest that it is possible to interpret characters from such a graphic signs:
1) Ascending handwriting which is associated with self-love and pride;
2) Handwriting composed of thin lines, saying that it is very shy person;
3) Personality's strength is associated with a thick letter "t";
4) Long "t's" stem means toughness
5) Writing letters "a" and "o" roundly shows reserve, reticence.
There are four symbolic directions where we can write: high, low, right and left and there are these types of handwriting which can “say” a lot about ones personality.
Size:
The size of a person's handwriting reflects how outgoing they are. The larger the handwriting is the more outgoing and expressive the person typically is. Which means that those with tiny handwriting are withdrawn and tend to bottle things up inside. Handwriting that's in the middle is just that, a person who's in between the two extremes, and handwriting that varies shows rapidly changing feelings. This might be a sign of deeper psychological problems, or it could simply mean they're in a confusing mood at the moment.
Slant:
Handwriting will lean either to the left, the right, or be almost totally vertical. Handwriting that slants to the right, or leans in, means the person is more expressive of their emotions. They're more likely to tell how they are feeling, whether it's an outburst of anger, joy, or sadness. Leaning to the left is the opposite. These people hide their feelings and try to control their emotions. Vertical writing shows someone who can vary to either side depending on their mood and the situation. The degree of how intensely the writing is slanted shows how intensely a person holds back or how much they express themselves.
Position:
It’s the way people write on a piece of paper. If the paper is lined, do they write on the lines or do some words go above or below? This shows whether or not they like to conform to other people's standards. More non-conformist types tend to write away from the lines. If the piece of paper has no lines, where do they start writing? If they start in the middle then they like to be the center of attention. If they start more to the left they are focused more on the past. Starting closer to the right edge shows a person living more in the future.
Even something as small as a word or something that irrelevant as a size of written letter can show in what mood the writer is, what is on his or her mind and what kind of person he or she is. the psychology of handwriting should not be underestimated, because it is a quite powerful tool to glance into our soul.
