You’re direct, intuitive, and in tune with energy fields. Try pendulums, muscle testing, or dowsing to get fast, energetic feedback.
Mostly C: Astrology or Everyday Oracles
You notice patterns, rhythms, and cosmic echoes. Astrology, numerology, dream tracking, and signs in the mundane world are your guides.

As a writer and teacher of literature, I am not surprised that I lean toward visual imagery. I am curious to learn more about Tarot.
I actually found it challenging to answer the questions. I ended up doing the quiz twice, the first time was heavily B, which I may have been overthinking, and the second time equally B and C (4 each) and 3 A's, with 1 D.
It's funny because I lean heavily into Astrology (side note, recently delving deeply into True Sidereal vs Western Tropical) but I started seeing patterns in the questions and leaning into that brought me the mostly B's. Then I just did it without thinking and it brought the C's (astrology) back in!
Anyway, very fun, and a also I think it was a great exercise to learn a little more about your own process, be a bit more self aware.
