Graphology is a science with its basis just like all the other sciences; empirical, and scientific exploration of hypothesis and experimentation. The various character traits that match up with the various graphological traits have been thouroughly tested through the traditional scientific methods.

Graphology is a science and should be best left to experts in the field. It takes years of study and training to become a qualified graphologist. However, there are simple and logical explanations that can show you; how and why graphology works, and the implications for its practical uses.

The following handwritings are samples of famous people. We have provided a mini-analysis of some of the main features of these writings. It is for the purpose of your review. In no way is this to be determined as a complete and in-depth analysis. We have chosen a variety of samples purposely selected for their unique graphology characteristics and others simply because of their fame. Please enjoy these as they are meant only for the purpose of public interest.

It is uncertain when Washington wrote this particular letter. I will make one assumption especially considering the wonderful rhythm of the handwriting. Therefore, I believe he was not under any particular and special stress that wartime could cause.

The graphology traits that Washington had innate were good form level, good intellect, strong imagination, and creativity. The writing is not fast, but a moderate speed. There are plenty of garlands at the baseline. It has a strong right hand slant. The upper zone has rightward tendency. There are arcades at the top of the middle zone.

While the writing is not fast, it is meticulous without rigidity. Washington calculated and planned his moves to minute details. He anticipated his enemies counter moves and was well prepared. The tactic of hit and run is best shown up graphologically by his lower case "y" loops. [notice how they are sharply turned rightward. This is a classic sign of impatience. However, it is highly unusual in a writing that is not fast.] This leads to the conclusion that Washington would plan hard and well, cover all the details, anticipate his enemy; then when he attacked would "impatiently" or quickly run away. His elusiveness is easily explained by the graphology traits in his writing. But make no mistake, Washington was not impetuous, impulsive, or a risk taker. Each tactic was the result of careful planning.

Remember the arcades at the top of the middle zone. Washington kept constant watch over his soldiers. He was concerned with them, and treated them as his resources. Since his resources were minimal, his men were not expendable. He could not afford heavy losses or waste. He was very protective of them, and this graphology trait also means that Washington had something to "hide". It was his Army, and he kept their location a secret from the British.

There are many angles at the baseline, and trianglular lower case "t" stems. Besides Washington's intellect, imagination, and creativity; he was a leader. He was firm, and often inflexible. He felt he was the authority. And when he gave an order, he ensured that it was carried out. His writing is extremely legible. He went to great pains to clearly communicate with his officers. No one left Washington in doubt or uncertainty. Everyone was on the "same page"; essential for the style of Washington. Everyone had a job to do, and do it precisely at the right time. He was a master at this. He kept the overall planning to himself. He delegated each officer the information they alone needed. Secrecy was a top priority in the Washington camp.

The overly high upper zone and overyly high "i" dots depict a very spiritual soul, and with the disconnected breaks in words; Washington "listened" to his strong intuition.

In conclusion, Washington hid his troops well, cautiously planned his attacks and maneuvers to the utmost detail. This would include anticipating the British counter maneuvers. He moved slowly and cautiously, and protected his Army. The crashing right margin showed the lack of caution, so if the circumstances were right; he would take what would appear to be a risk, but was more a gamble where the odds were in his favor.

In addition, Washington had no difficulties with his mother, but he hated his father. While his writing is simplified, his signature is flourished. He wanted to be viewed as larger than life. A sign of the aristocracy that he grew up in.

As far as a president is concerned; he has such innate talents that are listed above as a general, that he would have no problem converting these skills and talents to any field he chose.
