Our
“Forgotten Angel”
|
For the fourth
year in a row, I spent a wonderful autumn afternoon doing handwriting analyses
at The Cat Doctor & Friends veterinary clinic in Santa Clarita,
California. In addition to honoring all
things “cat” and introduce residents to Dr. Tracy McFarland and the other
wonderful veterinarians and technicians who work at her clinic, the open-house
event was also a fundraiser for the Forgotten Angels Cat Rescue. My
family adopted our kitty from this rescue four years ago, so I donated all donations
I received from the analyses to help support this organization’s rescue
efforts. Following is a description of how I use the information I learn about
you from your writing to facilitate your hypnotherapy session with me so you
can achieve your vocational and avocational self-improvement goals.
Handwriting is a manifestation
of what you consciously think, but it is motivated by a subconscious ideomotor
(automatic physical) response. The way you write—the shape and size of each
letter, whether you connect the letters and even the speed of your writing—are literally
a reflection of your behavior and personality traits. Your handwriting
does not reveal your age or gender;
nor will it enable me (or anyone else) to determine whether you are right- or
left-handed or to predict your future. However, your handwriting will reveal your
mood, personality traits, suggestibility and subconscious motivations at the
time of writing this sample. Following is a list of some of the characteristics
I analyze in every writing sample. I do not focus on the content of what you have
written; however, the form and characteristics of each letter will help me identify,
confirm or negate your specific personality traits and how those traits may be affecting
behavior.
·
Baseline slant: This handwriting
characteristic indicates the mood of the person at the time the handwriting
sample is done. An upward slant would suggest that you tend to be optimistic. A
downward slant suggests a more pessimistic attitude or possible depression,
which would necessitate a referral to a licensed medical or psychological
professional for further evaluation and/or treatment. A baseline that undulates
like waves indicates moodiness, which could be associated with low blood
sugar/hunger.
·
Connecting strokes: Writing samples whose
letters are connected and flow together indicate someone who has a very
methodical and systematic way of thinking. Writing samples that feature little
or no connection between the letters could indicate someone who is very
analytical and can intuit information or results from just a few pieces of
information.
·
Margins: Do you start and/or finish
writing at the edge of the page? The more room you leave on the right-hand
margin of the page indicates that you tend to be generous with the amount of
time and space you leave for other people. If you have wider margins on the
left-hand margin of the page, you are more generous with yourself.
·
Pressure of the writing: I can tell by
feeling the grooves on the reverse side of the page how much pressure (intent
or emotion) the writer invested in writing this sample. Someone who is very
passionate or emotional about the topic would tend to exert more pressure when
writing. Conversely, areas of lighter pressure (no groove) could indicate less
emotion, indifference or even physical weakness.
·
Signature: A person’s signature indicates
how he or she would like to be seen by others. It is not necessarily indicative of who the person really is/what the
person is really like. Someone whose signature matches or is most like the body
of the writing tends to be very no-nonsense; “what you see is what you get.”
The opposite would be true of an individual whose signature is very different
from the rest of the writing.
·
Slant of letters: The degree of angle or
slant of your letters indicates whether you tend to repress or express your
emotions. Someone whose writing has a left-hand slant tends to hold in emotions
whereas a person whose writing that slants to the right will express how he or
she is feeling. The greater the degree of the slant indicates the degree to
which emotions are repressed or expressed.
·
Zones: Each “zone” of writing indicates
where the person puts the greatest emphasis or priority in his or her life. The
upper zone is where thought/fantasy/analysis occurs. The middle zone concerns
daily life, communication and responsibility. The lower zone is dedicated to
fulfilling physical or materialistic needs: sex, clothes, shelter and money. A
similar model is also applicable in terms of where you begin writing the
sample.
These are just a few of the indicators I look at when I analyze handwriting
in my hypnotherapy practice. For more information about handwriting analysis,
or if you would like to request an in-depth analysis of your own writing,
please contact me via my website at www.calminsensehypnotherapy.com.
I am also available to do handwriting
analyses at fund-raising events to help you raise money for your preferred
charity; please let me know if you are interested in this, too!
