Quote:

Your temperament is choleric. The choleric temperament is fundamentally ambitious and leader-like. They have a lot of aggression, energy, and/or passion, and try to instill it in others. They can dominate people of other temperaments, especially phlegmatic types. Many great charismatic military and political figures were choleric. They like to be in charge of everything. However, cholerics also tend to be either highly disorganized or highly organized. They do not have in-between setups, only one extreme to another. As well as being leader-like and assertive, cholerics also fall into deep and sudden depression. Essentially, they are very much prone to mood swings.

P.s. late to the wizard nerd ****, but in light of recent events it's very likely that the hat missorted nonbinary kids.

And now for my real results:

Choleric: 7
Melancholic: 9
Sanguine: 18
Phlegmatic: 17

Quote:

Your temperament is sanguine. The sanguine temperament is fundamentally spontaneous and pleasure-seeking; sanguine people are sociable and charismatic. They tend to enjoy social gatherings, making new friends and tend to be boisterous. They are usually quite creative and often daydream. However, some alone time is crucial for those of this temperament. Sanguine can also mean sensitive, compassionate and thoughtful. Sanguine personalities generally struggle with following tasks all the way through, are chronically late, and tend to be forgetful and sometimes a little sarcastic. Often, when they pursue a new hobby, they lose interest as soon as it ceases to be engaging or fun. They are very much people persons. They are talkative and not shy. Sanguines generally have an almost shameless nature, certain that what they are doing is right. They have no lack of confidence.

Written a bit like horoscopes and doesn't seem to take my phlegmatictude into account.

Yes, supposedly there's an ancient astrology connection.

Wiki excerpt:

Quote:

Modern astrology takes many of its insights on personality from the field of psychology. Traditional astrologers of the past, in contrast, considered the four elements of Antiquity and their qualities as these manifested in human health and behaviour. The four temperaments are:

Choleric (hot and dry) equates to the fire element and the signs Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius.
Sanguine (hot and moist) refers to the air element and the signs Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius.
Phlegmatic (cold and moist) connotes the water element as well as Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces.
Melancholic (cold and dry) indicates the earth element, and Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn.
