Graphology


            
             Graphology is the study of handwriting and determining a person's character. The acknowledged father of modern graphology is French abbot and novel writer Hippolyte Michon. He published his first book in 1875 and introduced the term graphology. Many research professionals have studied and researched graphology in countries like France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Holland, and England. I am going to begin by telling you certain aspects to look for while analyzing a person's handwriting.
             Size and Width of Writing.
             The first thing you should notice when looking at a person's handwriting is the size of the words. Large size writing shows ambition, self-confidence, and enthusiasm. It also shows lack of objectivity, lack of consideration, and lack of modesty and courtesy. Small size writing shows realism, the faculty of observation, accuracy, and reliability, but also shows lack of self-confidence and inferiority complexes. There is also the relative length to observe when analyzing handwriting. Exaggerated middlelengths means that a person has social self-assurance. Exaggerated upperlengths indicates a tendency towards the intellectual and spiritual spheres, personal culture, many-sided interest, and ideals and illusions, but also indicates dreaminess, lack of self-discipline, of a solid basis and of a sense of reality. Exaggerated underlengths symbolize realism, the tendency to put everything on a firm, material foundation, and the qualities of an organizer. It also shows lack of illusions, moderation, and materialism.
             Now we will look at the specific points in a written manuscript where special exaggerations and shortness may occur. Often we will see capital letters are above normal length, this is a sign of showing off and a call for attention. An adjustment of capital letters to the size of others, on the other hand, shows a tendency to understatements often acquired by education.
