Graphology is a science with its basis just like all the other sciences; empirical, and scientific exploration of hypothesis and experimentation.

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.

This sample was from the Declaration of Independence. It is difficult to determine much of the qualities of this sample, so I used a composite of his other writings.

The keys to Jefferson's hand are narrow word spacing, narrow line spacing, straight baseline, overall visual and gracefull picture of writing, strong rightward slant, upper zone arcades, and many creative forms.

Jefferson was intellectually minded, and unorthodox. He was very creative, and utilized it in some form of visual manifestation. He was capable of unorthodox solutions to problems, not missing even minute details, and expressing himself in an eloquent manner. He had an easy going manner about him, and was rarely prone to forcefull tactics. He was a quiet and subdued man, charming and gracefull.

Jefferson was a cautious man, who was prudent. He was not rash, but moved slowly. He used his excellent planning skills to thoroughly analyze a problem before acting. Sometimes, he could be accused of overanalyzing a situation before acting; then the timing might be too late.

The high degree of upper zone arcades attest to the fact that Jefferson cared for and was a "protector" of others. He liked people, was warm and compassionate. He worked with people, rather than ordering, bossing, or trying to dominate others. Instead, he used his creativity and easy manner to get cooperation from others around him.
