Tell Me How You Write and I'll Tell You Who You Are.

A lot of information

No one in adulthood, writes as they wrote at the age of 6,7, 10 or 20 years. Family heritage, environmental conditions can have their say, but it is above all experiences, contacts, life itself that grows us, changing our way of writing year after year, month after month.

The writing test always starts from the whole, evaluating the harmony and discord of the layout, the strength and tension of the part, the impression of peace or tranquility that appears from the lines, from the words and finally from the letters, a difficult part but that reveals a lot about the whole discipline.

HISTORY

In the half of the 18th century, writing and character began to be classified in different typologies. But the basis of the graphic was defined only after the 1800s with the creation of a specific system of signs, where each sign refers to different psychic characteristics.

Apart from a white sheet of paper, a pencil and the willingness to play and practice graphology, you don't need anything, maybe a thin transparent villa and a magnifying glass to enlarge and see the details well.

•    The page should be seen from beginning to end, or from the placement on the sheet of how the writing looks at first sight and the form as well.

•    The latter is the essence of graphology because through the form we present ourselves and according to the size, progress and work on the page it takes on different colors and shows what we think only about ourselves.

•     Alignment, slope, space, none of these are accidental, everything must be evaluated carefully, according to precise instructions and not forgetting the jargon that graphology has been structuring over time.

A good character, theoretically, corresponds to a regular, pleasing and clear calligraphy. Order on a page, that means order in the head. But very rarely, really genius, concerned, problematic and interesting people write in a clear and understandable way.

Each of us is a small world, which we seek to direct and function: often and with good results. But all the fears, conflicts and contradictions that we keep inside ourselves still undiminished continue to be part of us and graphology, with its careful, detailed analysis of the writing, helps us bring them to light.

I loved when my daughters started learning cursive in school, and was surprised to hear from parents at other schools that their children weren't learning how to write in script.

Writing things by hand has numerous benefits that we should not be in a rush to lose sight of.

1. It Improves Learning

2. It Encourages Brain Development

3. It Makes for Better Composition

4. It Helps Achieve Goals

5. It Fosters Intention

Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, but some traditional skills are too lovely to lose, especially when they come with so many benefits that don't require an office full of electronics to receive.
