Graphology and pen pressure​

What is meant by pressure here is the extent to which the writer pressurizes the paper he is writing on. You may be wondering how to determine if the writer who wrote those lines was using a heavy or a light pressure. The solution is simple, when checking the papers below the one the writer was writing on you may find deep marks that resulted from excess pressure on the top paper. The more the number of papers that have the sings the grater was the pressure used.
  • Heavy pressure: heavy pressure indicates that the writer has got a great deal of energy. The energy mentioned here is not only physical energy but it may be mental energy too, this type of person may keep fighting to the end until he gets what he wants, he may also complete his task in spite of the difficulties that he face and he may like physical activities. Its worth to mention that a heavy pressure in writing may show that the writer is having a type A personality.
  • Light pressure: light pressure indicates that the writer have got less energy than the a writer writing with heavy pressure, this person may prefer activities that require less physical work and he may also be a little sensitive. This person may also be more flexible than a person writing with heavy pressure and this may make him more adaptable to changing situations. Light pressure is sometimes referred to as feminine writing.
 
Graphology & Slant
​

The slant of the writing is the direction where the writing is tilted to,The slant of writing could be either to the left, to the right or vertical.

Right slant: the writer who has got a right slant is usually impulsive; he may take fast decisions then regret them later. The writer may also be looking ahead; he may be planning for the future and can’t wait for the time to pass.

Left slant: a writer with left slant may be a shy and a reserved person; he may not find it that easy to deal with strangers. He also focuses more on the past events that happen to him, he may have problems forgetting bad days in his life.


Vertical slant: the writer who has got a vertical slant is independent and self reliant.
This person has a balanced approach concerning time, he may not be that attached to the past nor that impulsive.
 
Graphology & Size Of Letters
​

Some people use big letters in writing while others use small ones, you can determine if the writing is big or small by relative comparison, for example if you write twelve words per line while a friend of yours write five words per line then his hand writing is of bigger size than yours.

Big letter size: the person writing big letters is usually an extrovert, he may be a confident person, enthusiastic and generous. Its worth to mention that if you were writing something you are confident of, your letter size will become bigger and vice versa. Think of it as when in an exam, when you are sure of your answer, you may write it using big letters, while if you were not sure of it you may write using smaller letters.


Small letter size: the person writing small letters is very good at concentration and has got a great deal of precision. Hey may also be reserved or lacking self confidence. Hey mat not be as social as the person who writes using big letters.

Variable letter size: the person using variable letter sizes ( letter size vary from big to small within the same article) is usually a moody and unpredictable person.
 
Graphology & Line Spacing
​

When we do write, some people leave large spaces between lines while others do leave small ones. Large line spacing can be determined by comparing how many lines will fit into a page, people who leave large spaces between lines will usually have fewer lines in a page compared to someone who leaves small spaces.

Wide line spacing: writers who leave large spaces between lines are self assured, far-sighted and may be a little hostile. If the line spacing is even through out the page such that the spacing does not change when approaching the end of the page this could indicate good planning abilities, Simply because if the writer planned to use the page well, he wont have to change the spacing of his lines to fit the page when approaching the end of the page.

Close line spacing: writers who leave small spaces between lines are usually afraid of being isolated; they may be lonely or at least have fear of being abandoned. Their unconscious mind lets them place the lines close together to compensate for the need of intimacy.

Evenly spaced lines: usually in graphology whenever you come to an even way of writing it indicates that the person is balanced. For example If we are assuming that line spacing may represent the need for intimacy, then the person with even line spacing will have a balanced need for intimacy.

Unevenly spaced lines: when lines are unevenly spaced, such that some lines have large spaces between them while others have small spaces, it indicates that the writer is moody and unpredictable.
 
Graphology & Margins
​

Margins are the space left with no handwriting either to the left or to the right of the handwriting. Margins could either be narrow or wide with each showing certain personality traits about the writer.

Narrow left margin: a narrow left margin may indicates that the writer is attached more to his past than to his future and that his past could have an effect on his future decision making.

Wide Left margin: a wide left margin indicates that the writer may not be much attached to his past and that he could leave it behind and continue moving.

Wide right margin: a wide right margin indicates that the writer may be afraid to take a future step as he may still be making his mind about it.

Narrow right margin: a narrow right margin indicates that the writer is willing to take a forward step and that he may not be experiencing uncertainties at that period of his life.
 
Graphology & Space Between Words​



Word spacing is the space that is left between the words while writing, It can be either wide or narrow, Differentiating between wide and narrow spacing is easy, just see if the space between two words can fit for a letter like “k” or “w” using the writer’s handwriting dimensions, if the space is too narrow for another letter to fit in then spacing is narrow and if the space is too wide so that It can bear more than a letter then the spacing is wide.

Wide spacing: a writer with wide spacing between words may be independent, cautious and reserved person, he may also be experiencing loneliness at the time he wrote the sample.

Narrow spacing: the writer with close spacing needs constant contact with people and that could make him sociable and warm hearted, he may also have a feeling of insecurity.
Normal spacing: as usual whenever there is a balance in the element under consideration then the person usually has got a balanced attitude towards the traits related to the element.
 
Graphology & Line Direction​


When doing graphology analysis make sure that you write on a white paper instead of a paper with lines. This is because one of the items we analyze in graphology is the direction of the line (whether the line is ascending or descending) which can’t be noticed if the page was already lined because in this case the writer will write on the lines that are already present.

Ascending line: an ascending line is a line where the words keep going up through it so that the last word becomes a little higher than the first word in the line. The person who writes using ascending lines may be an optimistic person or at least may be experiencing good mood like being happy while writing.


Descending line: a descending line is the opposite of the ascending line. In the descending line the last word in the line becomes lower than the first word. The person who writes descending lines may be a pessimistic person or at least may be experiencing a bad mood like depression while writing.
