Are You a Tracker or a Dreamer? Quiz

Are You a Tracker or a Dreamer? Quiz
20 comments

Adapted from Toltec Dreaming, by Ken Eagle Feather (Inner Traditions, 2007).

Trackers and dreamers experience energy very differently and connect to the world in very different ways: trackers plan and carry out their plans, where dreamers jump into reality without regard for plans. See if you are more of a dreamer or a tracker with this fun quiz:

Examine these pairs of statements and see which of each pair sounds most like you:

I purposefully consolidate energy.
I keep awareness open to radical transformation.

I develop flexibility and fluency among different worlds.
I am often black-and-white, totally in perspective or totally out of it.

I tend to be lighthearted.
I often become morose or obsessed, seemingly lost within the energies of my world.

I find knowledge through shifting social identities.
I find knowledge through shifting the various dreams of reality.

I find meaning in stability, then hook dreaming into the physical and build it from there.
I take my awareness, fixate on it, then project that onto others.

I have a difficult time accessing the full robustness of dreaming.
I have a difficult time relating to what I consider the limitations of the physical world and the requirements of building something over time.

I isolate components of a problem, then apply strategic pressure to open doors.
I sense options, then open doors.

I need training to stretch my energy body.
I need training to get down to earth.

I may get lost in the nuances of my wondrous accomplishments.
I may get lost in the currents of my own dreams.

If you identified more with the first statement of each pair, you are a Tracker.
If you related more to the second, you are a Dreamer.

I have this fave little saying "If you don't mind where you're going, any road will take you there." which to me means that I am open to possibilities, comfortable with change, and oh, how I hate setting goals. So when I read that "dreamers jump into reality without regard for plans" I thought yeah, thats me. Then I began the quizz ... Most of the statements had me going "huh????" and when I thought I had them figured out, it seems that I am 4 parts tracker to 5 parts dreamer. Heck no!

we all live for our dreams, and try to turn them into reality?? i think? does that make me a dreamer, or a tracker? i found that i related to some of the questions, in more ways than one.

Going by the options, I am about evenly matched with both sides..the balance being tipped to tracker because I am generally more lighthearted than obsessed. Ask anyone around me though, and they all agree that I am a dreamer, contrary to evidence otherwise! lol

People usually know already if they are dreamers or not without the statements, although it's always interesting to use quizzes like this which come from another's perspective. In this way I believe we can learn more about ourselves.
I found the language difficult - some of the statements were vague - I was able to attribute more than one meaning. I don't think the quiz would lose anything if the statements were concise and clear.
"Less is more".

from what i understood of the pairings anyway i think i am a tracker, but i do get lost sometimes in the clouds and i have to ground myself back to reality.. ha ha.

Hm, I think I'm a little of both, though more of a tracker than a pure dreamer.

Nicky Elizabeth

I'm a dreamer, what wonders never cease

Martha Fontanna

I am a tracker that at times wishes to be a dreamer. I think being a little of both is probably the best place to be. I am not an astrologer and I understood the statements. I know myself and go to various sources to understand myself better and this life I live.
