Borrowed from D.J. Conway's By Oak, Ash, & Thorn. Modified this test is aimed toward the Celtic faiths but can be applied to any, fill in appropriate words where needed. Also, i am not looking for anyone to answer these openly online, just a way for each individual that reads it to take a closer look at themselves.

Do the phases of the Moon affect your moods? Cause bouts of nervousness or lethargy?

Do you have an affinity with animals? Can you communicate with them in some way?

Is it important to you to attain/maintain a certain social position, or do you value privacy and personal expression above what other think of your lifestyle?

Can you keep silent about your personal life, beliefs and actions, or do you rush to share them with anyone who will listen?

If someone tells you something in confidence, can you keep the secret?

Can you be happy spending time by yourself, or do you feel the need to be surrounded by other?
