About This Quiz

Here's a personality quiz that's out of this world! Answer a series of fun questions, and we'll do our best to match your personality with a celestial body. Are you a control freak like the Sun? If you feel no shame answering with an affirmative, then you must have a good reason. The Sun is the center of the universe. Do you hold down the fort for your family or community? Or maybe folks flock to you because you tend to deliver the right answers?

On the flip side, you might be more of the free-spirit type. If you are, you're in great company. There are quite a few celestial objects that roam the galaxies freely and untethered to major fluxes. But be careful, those who roam freely may roam forever. Perhaps you're like planet Earth, our sacred planet. Like Earth, do you strive to attain balance no matter what life throws at you? Most of us share a little or more of many celestial traits. Let the stars be your guide and let this test be a reflection of your personality type. Scroll through to see how many traits you share with some amazing heavenly bodies.
