How much can you analyse using a single stroke??

Whenever someone analyses handwriting, it is important to get the whole picture. One cannot conclude about personality on the basis of just one stroke.

First of all, the frequency of the manner of writing should be taken into account. Usually if a particular stroke is found which repeats less than 4-5 times in a page, then it could be an occasional characteristic of the writer. If it repeats for, say about 5-7 times, we can call it a trait, but if it repeats for more, it can be inferred as a habit.

But the bottom line is one just cannot conclude about the writer even if a particular stroke repeats for many times in a page.

For example, it is generally said that if t bars are crossed high on the stem, the person will have high self esteem and theoretically sets very high goals. The difficulty is, we cannot tell anything about the writers willingness and commitment to meet his goals, and we are also not sure if the writer has the energy to go on and complete his goals. Information about these is extracted from other parts of the handwriting. Hence, what is preferred by analysts is an holistic approach.

Analyzing based on a single trait would be like playing a team game, but only individually,and not as a team. For a team to do well, all its components(players), have to do well, and work as a team. There is no use if the players give excellent individual performances, but the team doesn't do well. Just like that, the analysis will be effective if one considers all different possibilities of a stroke and looks at them objectively.

I guess this is enough to convince you of the importance of the need for a holistic approach in handwriting analysis.

Intuition from Handwriting !!

Your handwriting can give a measure of how much you follow your instincts, or you take a decision based on your instincts. Intuition means " Derived from or prompted by a natural tendency or impulse. " It could also be called instinctive.

Intuitiveness can be seen in handwriting (graphology) by the breaks given between letters, that is the words are partly in cursive and partly disjoint. These people have unique physic abilities, also known as the sixth sense. They might possess special prophetic characteristics.

Look at the disconnected 'o' in the word

So, are you intuitive?? It sometimes does help to be, and remember never ignore your gut feeling, who can tell, you may be right.

The power of ' Will Power'

A blind man is able to read, a person who is dumb is able to communicate, there are many more inspiring examples in real life .
In daily life situations we see some businessmen or even ordinary working people who are very busy, but yet make their own time to pursue their hobbies. We often do see people get out of impossible situations quiet frequently by their sheer will power.
On the other hand we also see some people as talented and capable as people of the first category, but generally do not tend to do things according to their wishes.The worst part is they might even stop trying after just a single failure, which is not a very encouraging prospect. Invariably people who fall in the first category mentioned here will be more successful. The difference between these two categories is their 'Will Power'.

How to know about will power from your handwriting ?
Will power can be seen in graphology in the letters 't' and sometimes 'i'. The pressure given by the writer on his 't' bars indicates his will power. More the pressure, stronger the will power of the writer. Sometimes pressure on the dots on the letter 'i' in the writer's handwriting sample also gives a measure of his/her will power. This is a desirable quality and intensifies other individual traits of the writer.

Look at the heavy pressure on the 't' bars and the dot on the 'i' indicating the strong will power of the writer.

Will power is the strength to carry out one's decisions, wishes, or plans. It is unwavering firmness of character and action. It is a mysterious energy gifted to living beings by the almighty which when used in the right direction creates wonders which one can only dream of.

And who can forget the good old proverb : When There is a Will There is a Way
