Feature: How do you write?



By Nayyier Masood


Graphology is the art of judging character from handwriting. Perhaps you have seen detective programmes on television where a graphologist is called in to give an opinion of the character of an unknown criminal simply by studying a piece of the offender’s handwriting. Grapologists are able to tell the character of a person whose handwriting they have seen but whom they have never met. This is not fortune telling, but only claims to reveal personality.

Do you make use of very small letters or large letters? Do you write tidily or untidily? Does the writing slope to the right, to the left, or is it bolt upright? Do you place your letters close together so that you get a maximum of words into a minimum of space, or is your hand writing scrawling or ‘elongated’ so that you cover many lines without saying much?

Now if your writing slopes to the right the graphologist will tell you that you are of a determined character who likes planning ahead, even if the plans do not always work out to your liking. You feel you must sketch out tomorrow’s programme on paper in advance.

If your handwriting slopes to the left you are not a planner. You would rather think about what has been than what is to be. In fact, the future does not worry you at all.

The upright handwriters are ambitious personalities with strong will power; and though they may not always achieve the goals they plan, they will get near to them. They are usually creative, have their wits about them. Often they are very good judges of other people’s character.

Now, do you write in an elongated way? That is, do you spread your words across the line, using a great deal of space without slopping to right or left? This, say our experts, reveals a person of unruffled calm who is not easily upset about anything and who is a very good friend who is sure to stand by you in time of need.

If you always employ close writing that is, considering your words and letters, you have an artistic or literary temperament, are a quick thinker and also something of an economist. You like to daydream, but for the most part you are intensely practical. Let’s look at the small letter writer. We have to be careful here because small writing is not always characteristic of the writer. People in a nervous state, who are recovering from an illness or are experiencing an acute lack of confidence in themselves, often find themselves writing in mini-style. But those who always write in small characters are usually the very careful types who take great pains in any task they have to perform. They are often very precise about money and details, and therefore very careful in all they say and do.

The large letter writer is a good humoured, generous individual with no particular ‘phobias’. Such people are very friendly and will never betray your confidence.

Graphologists do not say that all these people have all these attributes but it is likely that each may possess one or more of them.
