This is probably going to be another one of those personality tests that everyone ends up taking before blogging about it across the virtual world like wildfire.

According to this test, which was first spotted here, this is me:

Ki System
Natal Year number: 1
Jikon has the ability to adapt himself to a variety of challenges, and thus has a creative potential that may find expression in art, design, music or literary work. But with a cautious approach to life, he rarely discloses his innermost thoughts.

Natal Month number: 7
Jikon is a good communicator and enjoys discussion, but he will avoid stressful situations and arguments. He is a fund of new ideas that spill from his active brain with great rapidity, but his business dealings will always be constrained by his desire to be liked. He therefore lacks those long-term goals that would bring him prosperity.

Natal House number: 8
Somewhat stubborn when pushed too far, Jikon is inclined to be one of those people who cannot see the wood for the trees. In effect his methodical approach leads him to become immersed in the detail and thus lose touch with the ultimate aim. Although he may be financially successful, he is not one to display that wealth in an ostentatious manner.

Comments based on Western Grid
1
Although Jikon may be reasonably talkative in public, he finds it difficult to express personal feelings to those closest to him. In employment terms, this inhibition is of little consequence.

22
Highly intelligent and acutely sensitive, Jikon is a good judge of other people’s motives and character. He enjoys high intelligence, and with a number 7 (in the Western Grid) he would be suited to a vocation in the priesthood. Sensitive to the needs of others, Jikon should be employed to the benefit of those who lack the advantages enjoyed by others.

3
With a creative mind and a good memory, Jikon is honest, straightforward and optimistic. He will achieve his aims. He is capable of creative thought, and will appreciate art and music. He also enjoys an excellent memory - a significant advantage in any employment.

7
Jikon will find life’s lessons hard to learn. He will suffer from loss (of possessions or those he loves) before questioning the cause of that loss. It is likely that Jikon will develop a faith of some sort, and although it need not necessarily be a religious faith, it will nevertheless be something that he holds onto against all the evidence. Potential employers need to find out what that faith entails.

8
Good with details and with a methodical approach, Jikon nevertheless is someone who enjoys constant new challenges to maintain his interest. He is a methodical individual with attention to detail, but is inclined to leave tasks unfinished if his active mind alights on something of greater interest. Routine tasks that fail to challenge his intellect are at greatest risk, so Jikon needs a job that offers variety.

9
Ambitious to improve his lot, Jikon will constantly push forward to achieve something in his life, yet this ambition will be balanced by humanitarian ideals that will lead him to support causes that may demand self-sacrifice.

[The Arrow of the Planner: the numbers 1, 2 and 3] Although less interested in the detail, Jikon is a well-organised individual who plans ahead. If he absorbs knowledge through study, he will achieve great success, quite possibly in an artistic field. The essence however of this combination is his desire to plan, and to organise himself to achieve his goals.

[The Arrow of Frustrations: lacking the numbers 4, 5 and 6] Jikon finds it difficult to accept other people as they really are, and is constantly disillusioned with life. Once he accepts that others are only human, the frustrations will cease.

[The Arrow of Activity: the numbers 7, 8 and 9] Enjoying the outdoors, Jikon is someone who will perform best by being busy. He dislikes confined spaces, and needs both physical and mental exercise. A good walk in fresh air is an intellectual catalyst like no other to Jikon, whose need to be constantly occupied is an asset to any employer.

Comments based on Chinese Grid
11
Jikon will be reasonably successful in financial terms, and enjoy a degree of luck.

22
Unless he also has the numbers 4 and 9 in the Chinese Version (but I do… thank God), Jikon will be lethargic, and likely to suffer from ill health.

4
Intelligent and logical, Jikon is not someone who acts rashly on the spur of the moment.

7
If the numbers 3 and 5 in the Chinese version are missing (and yes, they are), Jikon is something of a perfectionist who seeks to achieve detailed accuracy, and has a natural instinct to unearth the truth. If the Chinese Grid also contains the numbers 3 and 5, he will be attracted to work in a spiritual or humanitarian field.

9
Although Jikon is ambitious, his ambition is tempered with humanitarian ideals.

[The Arrow of Intellect: The numbers 2, 4 and 9] Jikon is intelligent, articulate and enjoys a first-class memory. He has a logical and analytical approach that suits him to the legal, medical or accountancy professions.
