is in the moment I discover it in the act of writing."

Frequently Asked Questions
My handwriting changes all the time, can you still analyze it?
Even though your handwriting may change, your essential personality does not and therefore, it will show in your basic writing movements in your handwriting.
What can handwriting reveal about the writer?
Handwriting reveals the emotional nature, intelligence, self-esteem, motivations, integrity, adaptability, communication, and any other special skills or aptitudes of the individual. It is possible to assess over 100 different personality traits using handwriting analysis.
What are the limitations of graphology?
Handwriting analysis cannot tell certain information such as the race, gender, or age of the writer and it cannot predict the future.
Is handwriting analysis a credible science?
The Library of Congress categorized handwriting analysis as a science in 1981.
Why is handwriting called "brainwriting"?
Handwriting is called "brainwriting" because it is a subconscious function
that precisely duplicates the thought patterns, emotions, and personality of an individual.
Impulses from the subconscious mind are carried as thoughts, attitudes, and feelings through
the brain down through the hand and pen registering within the letter structures as
symbols which can be interpreted by a trained graphologist much like interpreting a foreign
language.
How is handwriting analysis used in everyday life? There are over 1500 companies nationwide that use handwriting analysis for
hiring employees. 80% of all companies in European countries such as Germany, France,
and Spain use handwriting analysis in their hiring process. Other uses include: jury
selection, marital compatibility, personality profiling, forensic document examination, and
graphotherapy.
Does it invade a person's right to privacy?
No. Handwriting, like speech, is repeatedly displayed to the public. (U.S.
Supreme Court vs. Mara, 1973).
I'm left handed. Will that affect my handwriting?
No. It is a common
misconception to think that left handedness affects the results of handwriting
analysis. Your personality traits will be revealed whether you write with your
right or left hand or are ambidextrous.
