Hisseki-jutsu: Writing for Good Luck
Hisseki-jutsu is a special way of writing. It can bring good luck. There are different styles, and each style gives a different kind of luck. Here, we will introduce five styles that can improve your fortune.
What is Hisseki-gaku(graphology)?
Handwriting is a record of actions. It shows personality, emotions, and habits. It can also reveal how someone interacts with others. The way we write comes from deep inside our minds.
Handwriting analysis is called “Hisseki-gaku”(graphology). It is a study that uses psychology and statistics to understand a person’s character and behavior. Personality appears in actions, and those actions show up in handwriting. For example, impatient people have handwriting that looks rushed. People who feel unhappy often have handwriting that reflects their emotions.
What is Hisseki-jutsu?
Hisseki-jutsu uses the ideas of handwriting analysis in a special way. Instead of just understanding a person’s character, it helps change the future. By adding certain elements to writing, people can attract good luck and become the person they want to be. In other words, writing with hope and dreams can improve fortune and bring happiness.
Besides the writing styles introduced here, there are also “forms” and other elements in Hisseki-jutsu. By combining them, one can add multiple wishes for good fortune into a single character. This makes Hisseki-jutsu very deep and meaningful. In this section, we will introduce five handwriting styles that can improve luck.

Five handwriting styles
Writing for Talent Luck

If you make the left side of a horizontal line longer, it means talent and energy. People who write like this are often very smart. One famous example is Prince Shotoku, a historical figure in Japan.
Japan’s oldest handwritten Buddhist text, “Hokke Gisho,” also has this style. A longer left stroke shows strong intelligence. Writing like this can increase your talent luck.
Writing for Fame Luck

Some people get attention and success because they have a special charm. Their handwriting often has long strokes that extend to the left.
This style is common among famous singers, actors, and business leaders. It shows strong inner energy. People who write like this often shine and attract others. This way of writing can help you gain fame luck.
Writing for Health Luck

If you write with strong upward strokes, it shows strength. Many people who have overcome illness write like this.
This style means you have the power to overcome problems. Writing with strong strokes can improve health luck. It is said that energy flows from top to bottom in letters. By controlling this energy, you can gain better health.
Writing for Money Luck

Some kanji characters have square spaces inside. If the first stroke is open but the last stroke closes the space, it is said to bring money luck.
Writing in this way helps control the flow of money. The first stroke is like an entrance for wealth, and the last stroke is like a gate to keep it. Using this technique can help you save money.
Writing for Big Success

This style shows strong ambition. People with this handwriting often break limits and achieve great success.
Famous people like Hibari Misora, Yujiro Ishihara, and Tokugawa Ieyasu had this handwriting style. A long downward stroke means strong willpower and confidence. People with this style are ready to take big risks for success.
Conclusion
Hisseki-jutsu is a way to use handwriting to bring good fortune. MADARA, a Shodo (Japanese traditional calligraphy) artist, has practiced this art for over 20 years.
One day, a mother asked MADARA to write a lucky name for her child, who was very sick. She hoped the child would live longer. MADARA carefully wrote the name with a wish for health. Years later, the child lived beyond the expected time, and the mother called to say thank you with tears of joy.
Hisseki-jutsu is not just about writing. It is a way to bring hope and happiness to people’s lives.
