Your handwriting can tell almost everything about your personality. The study of psychological analysis of handwriting is known as Graphology. You must have seen the use of Graphology in some crime fiction or movies. A very popular movie which has shown the use of Graphology is the SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS. In real world also, Graphology finds its use in
solving criminal cases or to understand the personality and psychology of criminals. No scientific evidence exists that supports Graphology and is generally considered a pseudoscience or scientifically questionable practice. But, still many studies show that it’s accurate and many that don’t consider it accurate and therefore, it’s under the category of pseudoscience. One thing which you must keep in mind is that the Graphology can only tell about the thinking of the person at that point when he wrote. The change in mood, behavior and situations also changes the strokes of your handwriting making your strokes extremely dynamic. Now, let’s dive in Graphology and let’s see how your handwriting shows your personality traits.
The strokes of each letter that you write tells some of the things about you or in easy words, the formation of each alphabet tells about your traits!
If your handwriting is round or writing with rounded letters shows a sign of good imagination (it can be controllable and intractable). The intensity of the imagination can be If your handwriting is round or writing with rounded letters shows a sign of good imagination (it can be controllable and intractable). The intensity of the imagination can be judged by observing the strokes more carefully.

If the handwriting is a bit pointy, or rigid then it shows that the person might be in stress or takes stress for even small things. If the strokes are observed more precisely then severe conditions like anxiety, depression, overthinking, etc. too can be detected by your strokes.

If the dot of your “i” is bubble-shaped then it tells that you are still childish in nature. If throughout the paragraph or text the person is not having bubble-shaped dot on “i” at every place then this shows that the person is childish only under some situations where he\she finds themselves comfortable or in front of their parents or some of their friends.

Crossing your “t” lower on the stem shows low self esteems, crossing your “t” middle on the stem shows realistic goals whereas crossing your “t” higher on the stem shows very big goals which may sound unrealistic to others but, don’t change your goals just on the basis of judgement given by others. JUST DO WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS!

The heavy pen pressure gives the confirmation that the person was in stress while writing at that point of time whereas a light pen pressure shows a sense of feeling relaxed and refreshed.
The letter “e” tells whether the person is an introvert or an extrovert.
The slant of a person’s letters tells you their emotional direction. If the letters themselves angle back to the left, the person is likely defensive and fearful of the future. If the letters angle forward to the right, the person tends to be very expressive, intense, and impulsive.
