Evidently there is a new movie on the horizon called “The Golden Compass.” At the movie site, they are offering to ask you a few questions to establish your Daemon personality match.

My daemonic match is “Aeschylus” the butterfly: Modest, a leader, sociable, shy and fickle. Since my daemon is for some reason supposed to be the opposite gender, it is male (do they have it confused with anima/us? or perhaps a familiar? a totem?) I don’t think of Aeschylus and butterflies in the same visionary set myself.

He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. – Aeschylus

In war, truth is the first casualty. – Aeschylus

Death is better, a milder fate than tyranny. – Aeschylus, Agamemnon

For somehow this is tyranny’s disease, to trust no friends. – Aeschylus, Prometheus Bound

It is a profitable thing, if one is wise, to seem foolish. – Aeschylus

Hmmm. Well. If you like, you can affect the final result. My friends can decide if this is a representation of the “real me.” Changes will be allowed for 12 days. This display will update in response to differing assessments.

So, if you have a sense of me, go ahead and affect the results.

It should be interesting to hear more about the movie. Marketing by quiz results.
