Numerology Personality

Most of the stuff on the world wide web is a bit…well, let’s just it’s just a little bit sketchy sometimes. The internet isn’t quite the first place that you’d look when it comes to trying to find out more about yourself – unless you want to see that the various masks that people place on themselves online can reveal some very interesting things.

But every so often, comes something that just might be a bit accurate and a little bit scary in its analysis, even if it lacks empirical evidence. Thanks to Kelly of Geekoric, I happened upon this little numerology analysis of your personality based upon your full, birth certificate name. For me, it was eerily on-target, pegging me as a person with a penchant for charm and diplomacy, able to build relationships with others easily, and someone who has ended up in leadership positions where I am respected. Now that seems like an ego-stroker, so it also put me down for various aspects of my personality that weren’t so rosy, too.

Now don’t get me wrong – anything on the Net that tries to tell you who you are is something that should be taken with a grain of salt and not as something that is definitive. But it is interesting to see how something online that isn’t proven can showcase parts of yourself that are pretty accurate. And because of the fact that it is electronic and online it is easily shareable among friends. The dawn of social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter show that such tests and analyses can spread like wildfire within minutes, and even something as simple as asking your various friends a bunch of questions can turn into a nice little distraction to an otherwise boring day.

Besides, a popular personality testing app is guaranteed traffic. One of these days, maybe I’ll have the foresight to actually think of one of these interesting little questionnaires on my own. Until then, you’ll have to live with checking out what the numbers say about you.
