    Hello,
    differents "methods" of self-knowlegde can indeed help you toward a deeper
    understanding of yourself.

    Namely astrology, the enneagram , the Myers-Briggs personality test ,etc...can
    all be nice pointers,and source of meditations,but with the huge disavantages
    of telling you who you are (the danger beeing believing it blindly, adopting a
    baised point of vue, or create confusion mixing all systems)

    Bardon tells us to use the mirror work as pointer, and gives little information
    indeed.
    Guenuine self-knowledge can only come from our own observation and
    introspection.

    How about imagining a fictionnal character with all your traits and write a
    little story about him? could it help taking a step baCK from the forest?
    Or using painting, music, and describe yourself throught those medium, the
    result could give you a larger perspective .
    Personaly, music seems the more efficient, ever changing.

    I found Rawns "center of stillness" meditations quite helpul to gaIN a sense of
    perspective.

    Good luck.
