A self-reflection worksheet for comparing insights across reading systems
By Mindy Park
Keep a reading’s words, your own contribution and real-world observations separate when comparing two symbolic systems.
Compare insights across reading systems by recording what each reading actually said before deciding what it means to you. Do not combine matching phrases into a single verified prediction. This worksheet is an original editorial exercise for organizing reflection, not a validated assessment.
Keep one row for each statement
| Field | What to record |
|---|---|
| Source and date | Which reading, report or session supplied it |
| Original statement | The wording before you reinterpret it |
| Material used | A chart feature, a card, or context you supplied |
| Your response | Agreement, disagreement, uncertainty or no relevance |
| Outside observation | Something you could observe independently |
| Next step | An ordinary action, or a decision to do nothing |
If you need a starting point, read the comparison of Saju and tarot. Knowing how the input differs makes it easier to label each row accurately.
A hypothetical example
A fictional Saju report suggests preferring clear routines. A tarot conversation prompts the same person to reconsider a crowded schedule. The person writes both statements down, including that they told the tarot reader about feeling busy.
Their independent observation is that they missed two planned drawing sessions after accepting extra commitments. Their optional action is to protect one evening for drawing next week. That action can be sensible without proving either reading identified a hidden fact.
If the protected evening does not help, they record that too. They do not revise the original reading into a different prediction after seeing the result.
Similar words are not independent evidence
Two readings can use ordinary themes such as work, relationships and change. A shared theme alone does not establish that both methods reached a tested conclusion. Ask whether the statement was specific, whether you supplied the relevant information, and whether disagreement would also have been recorded.
Pew’s October 2024 survey found that 30% of U.S. adults consulted astrology, tarot cards or fortune tellers at least annually. Read the original source. The survey measured participation among 9,593 U.S. adults; it did not test agreement between methods or validate this worksheet.
Leave disagreement visible
You may find one interpretation useful and another unconvincing. Write “does not fit” instead of searching indefinitely for a hidden explanation. A reading is not entitled to define your identity.
For statements about a future event, use the separate prediction record, which asks for an outcome and a timeframe. For reflective language, keep the action small and reversible. The worksheet’s purpose is to preserve your judgment while making the conversation easier to revisit.
