Cursive writing used to be a rite of passage an elegant flow of letters that felt personal, intuitive, and powerful. But over the past couple of decades, it quietly vanished from schools. Now, entire generations can’t read handwritten letters from their own ancestors. Why? And more importantly: what deeper power were we disconnected from?
As someone deeply invested in personal growth, spirituality, and ancestral wisdom, I had to dig deeper. What I found? Cursive writing isn’t just pretty penmanship it’s a spiritual tool. And the reason "they" removed it is rooted in control, disconnection, and digital dependence.
Let’s talk about why this sacred skill is worth reclaiming.
The Digital Switch & Systemic Erasure
When technology took over the classroom, cursive was one of the first things cut. Schools began teaching typing instead of penmanship, claiming efficiency and tech-readiness. But when you really look closer, cursive writing isn’t just "old-fashioned" it’s energetically activating.
Typing might be fast, but it’s cold. Cursive, on the other hand, is your energetic fingerprint. It flows from the heart, and when you write in it, you’re literally moving energy through your body, brain, and spirit.
They didn’t just remove a skill. They removed a spiritual practice.

Strengthens intuitive flow
When I script affirmations or write to my inner child in cursive, I feel more grounded, more connected. It’s a meditative act a sacred ritual of reclaiming my voice.
To enhance this ritual, I always begin by setting the vibe. I use this gorgeous Mindful Meditation Candle Set with beeswax mini tapers and a brass holder to open the space with intention. It brings such grounding and clarity to the journaling process.

Here’s the truth: anything that helps you think freely, feel deeply, or reconnect to your power is a threat to systems built on control. Cursive makes you pause. Reflect. It slows your thoughts down so you can actually feel them.
In a society obsessed with speed, cursive asks you to be present. And that presence? That stillness? It’s where your spiritual downloads come from.
I also use this powerful Root Chakra Meditation Candle with Red Jasper Bracelet when journaling. It keeps me grounded, especially when I'm diving into deeper emotions or inner child work. The grounding aroma of patchouli and the red jasper bring me back to my center.
Relearn the Flow
Even if you haven’t written in cursive in years, you can relearn it. I used The Art of Cursive Penmanship, and wow it felt like reawakening a dormant power. The exercises are meditative, healing, and incredibly relaxing.
Choose a Tool That Feels Luxurious
Writing in cursive feels more intentional when you use a pen that glides. I love this Fountain Pen Set with Gold Finish. It’s elegant, smooth, and feels like writing royalty. It even comes with ink cartridges and a converter a full sacred setup.
Journal in Something Worthy of Your Spirit
Your words deserve a sacred space. I use the LEATHER VILLAGE Vintage Leather Journal it's handmade, rustic, and gives me major ancestral vibes. Every time I open it, I feel like I’m writing a piece of legacy.
We weren’t just taught to forget cursive. We were taught to forget how to feel. How to express. How to listen to our inner voice. But now, we know better. Cursive is a portal a sacred, spiritual portal to self-expression, reflection, and ancestral connection.
Let’s bring it back. Let’s write again. Let’s flow.
