Tea Leaves Shmee Leaves... A Less Messy Look at Your Personality
Take out a piece of scrap paper and a pen, or pencil, or writing utensil of your choice, then jot down your name. Or a Bible verse. Or a stanza from a song you've got stuck in your head. Whatever, it doesn't really matter, except that you do it. Go on. I'll wait.
See, that was painless, eh? Now then...let's get down to business. Today we're going to find out what some of your personality quirks are by deciphering your handwriting. Don't worry. I won't be selling you snake oil after we're finished. There's actually a technical term for this - Graphology - so you know it's got to be legit.
So look at what you've written. Which way does it slant?
NO SLANT: You don't let your emotions get the best of you. You tend to be logical and practical.
LEFT SLANT: You like to work behind the scenes and generally keep to yourself.
RIGHT SLANT: You like a good adventure, are open to new experiences and meeting new people.
Is it legible?
YES: You are confident and comfortable. You don't need to pretend to be someone you aren't.
NO: You are a private person, hard to read and/or understand.
Is it very small, cramped writing?
You might have Parkinson's.
Does the slant vary from letter to letter?
You might be Schizophrenic.
What kind of space do you have between the words?
WIDE: You enjoy your freedom and don't like to be overwhelmed.
NARROW: You don't like to be alone.
How are the shapes of your letters?
ROUND: You are creative and artistic.
POINTY: Agressive, intense, very intelligent and curious.
CONNECTED: You're a logical kind of person, very systematic.
And those are just a few. Check out this handy dandy infographic if you'd like to go even more in-depth in deciphering your handwriting.
While this won't necessarily foretell your future like reading tea leaves in a cup, it is a heap of fun, and in my case, was a pretty darn accurate predictor of my personality.
