A fun quiz to take-

I am-

You're the child! Jung also referred to this main archetype as "the Innocent". He believed that we all posses it, but some manifest the archetype more strongly than others! As the child, you're full of faith and optimism. Some may say you see the world through rose colored glasses or that you're living in a fantasy, but you really just see the good in all things. You're very close to your mother and you have a strong desire to prove yourself by doing things "the right way". Beware of being too naive and sheltered. Use your optimism and imagination to help others see the good in the world!

You're the sage! According to Carl Jung, the sage represents wisdom and the search for truth. You are wise beyond your years, patient and a deep thinker. You're driven by a thirst for knowledge. One of your greatest fears is being ignorant, misled, or duped. You're incredibly intelligent but you risk over analyzing until you're incapable of actually making a decision. You're an old soul and wise beyond your years, but Jung would tell you don't get lost in the clouds!

No offense but those ""quizzes"" are put together by advertisers and they're data mining every person who clicks on them. I had a long thread about this with articles alerting people to the fake ""quizzes."" Only thing they tell you about yourself is you're somebody who clicks links and answers marketing surveys.

I am also The Child. Did anyone notice the typo on about the third question? Loosing instead of losing, LOL.

But they really didn't ask you to reveal anything even remotely personal about yourself. Some quizzes asked pointed questions, but these were more philosophical, IMO. Anyway, it was a fun quiz.

Here: "#### BEWARE "Fun Quizzes" are Data Mining and Collecting, Personal Information ####

Warning: the quizzes we've been taking are more than entertainment. We know they don't tell us anything really because they're written by office staff or advertising copy writers. The bad thing is . . . "

The Caregiver

You're the caregiver! Jung identified this archetype in many goddesses and female role models throughout history. You're the mother figure: the selfless caregiver and helper. Everyone comes to you for advice. You truly love others as yourself and your greatest fear is selfishness and ingratitude. You manifest compassion and generosity. A Jungian psychologist would tell you to be careful not to be taken advantage of and never let yourself play the martyr.

Thanks for your nice answer Topaz. They don't have to ask personal things, from what I got from the different articles from experts they get the cookie info on your computer.

Exactly. It is the ones that ask pointed, personal questions that you have to beware of. This one does not.

Explorer

You're the explorer! According to Jung we can find this archetype in many myths and fairy tales. You're a restless nomad, always full of wanderlust. You see life as one big adventure and you're always planning your next move. This archetype thirsts for new experiences and new people. You're independent, adaptable, ambitious and true to yourself. Your sense of adventure is your greatest strength, but you may risk wondering aimlessly and you may find it difficult to choose a direction. Channel your adventurous spirit into something productive!

O/T: Even this quiz has trouble with Lose and Loose. One of the questions was about ""loosing"" it. LOL

ITA. I clicked on a Facebook post that offered to give you your horoscope. Once I clicked on it, they wanted your exact date and time of birth. I got out of there so fast I practically burned rubber, LOL. It may have been legit, but I wasn't taking any chances.

Hmmm, I found the summation of me pretty much spot on. Anyone else? Some of them are quite interesting to read.
