I
developed the Wiccan Personality Test just for fun. We are all unique
individuals with unique qualities. But, I have noticed that people
tend to favor particular habits and likings and that these preferences
can be related to the four elements. For each element, I have used
the traditional colors but I have added colors between the original
four. Personalities are related to qualities associated with those
elements. The following is a chart of those elements and colors
as laid out in the traditional equilateral cross turned into a grid
pattern.
Review
the qualities of each of the four elements and relate them to the
human personality and you will see the correspondences. Here's how

Scoring The Test
Refer
to the chart above. You will be finding your place within the
grid. Starting from the center, count outwards in the directions
indicated. Count the number of As and Bs.
Subtract the lesser number from the greater. If the As
are greater, mark the remaining number on the Water (blue) side.
If the Bs are greater, mark the remaining number
on the Fire (red) side. Count the number of Cs
and Ds. Subtract the lesser number from the greater.
If the Cs are greater, mark the remaining number
on the Air (yellow) side. If the Ds are greater,
mark the remaining number on the Earth (green) side. You should
now have two marks on your grid. Follow the lines to find where
the two intersect. This point is your personality color. You can
see how much you are influenced by surrounding colors.
For
example, if I had scored 8 As, 5 Bs, 10 Cs
and 3 Ds, I would look at the number of As
and the number of Bs and subtract the lesser
of the two (the Bs) from the greater of the two
(the As) and get 3 (8-5). I would do the same
for the Cs and the Ds and get
7 (10-3). I would then count 3 toward blue (because the As
were the greater number) and 7 toward yellow (because the Cs
were greater). I would be considered a Yellow personality with
a lot of influence from Purple.
Using the Information
By
seeing where you are on the grid, you can get an idea of your own
personality but you can also see how you might get along with others
if you can assess their position on the chart as well. The following
arrows show relationships within the grid.
The
closer one is to the center of the grid, the more balanced the personality.
The chart can help you find ways to better balance yourself as well
as work with others.
