Quick!

Before you start reading this article, take out a blank piece of paper and sign your name.

Ready?

The signature represents the most personal and intimate handwriting we do. The way you sign your name can reveal a lot about your personality– both in life and business. Signatures are an insight into one’s persona.

Legibility

A clearly legible signature indicates someone who, generally speaking, likes to appear socially open. It usually means that you are happy with who you are and have nothing to hide.

Illegible signatures tend to signal quick minds. They also tend to mean you are not bogged down by detail. Sometimes, it also means that you are arrogant.

Size

Small letters are an indicator that you are quiet, shy, and possibly withdrawn.

A large signature shows that you have a sense of high status, while medium-sized writing reveals a balance of modesty.

Embellishments

If you have lines going through your signature, it’s a sign that you aren’t happy and are self-critical. If you underline your name it’s a sign of importance and the need for recognition and status.

Do you draw a circle around your signature? If so, this is a sign that you want to be protected and could be defensive. Ending your signature with a period is actually the sign of a strong business leader.

Pressure

If you apply heavy pressure to your signature, this is a sign that you are good with commitment and taking things seriously. However, light pressure can be a sign that you lack vitality.

Flow

If you connect your letters, it might mean you’re very logical and most of your decisions are based on facts and experience. If your letters are disconnected, you might be more imaginative, and impulsive, and base your decisions on intuition.

Angle & Slant

A signature that slopes downward reveals a sense of pessimism toward the world around you. Whereas, the signature slanted upwards, reflects ambition and a tendency to look toward the future.

A leftward-leaning signature will indicate someone who is very reserved. They’ll likely also be polite. A rightward-leaning signature shows an ability to easily make contact and connections with others.

General Style

A rule of thumb is that graphologists say the simpler the signature, the more straightforward the person. A rounded signature shows someone who likes to get on with people and avoid conflict. A spiky or pointed signature is someone who can be critical and possibly aggressive. A thready signature that looks like a straight line indicates someone you have to be careful with. They could be evasive and manipulative.

Whatever your signature style, bear in mind that you may be revealing far more about yourself than you bargained for next time you scrawl across the dotted line.
