What is Graphology

What does it reveal?

Graphology is the science of determining from a sample of handwriting th

e character of an individual in a thorough and insightful way. As we express our personality in words, actions and gestures, handwriting is another indicator of personality. While the spoken word can hide our feelings and thoughts, genuine emotion cannot be disguised in handwriting and gives a current picture of the person - at that moment in time. It reveals a wealth of information such as, thinking patterns, goals, emotional responses, energy levels and drive, sociability, fears and defences, controls, strengths and weaknesses, self-image, imagination, organisation skills, integrity and many more character traits. Anxieties and fears which may begin in childhood, can also leave an indelible impression upon us and the writing will reflect this. We are all complex beings and as we mature, we accumulate life experiences which shape who we are and become, and as such our handwriting changes as we change with the passage of time.
