There's a nice picture of [livejournal.com profile] aelfgyfu's polycandelon here, if you're still wondering what a polycandelon is.

Also-- perhaps to no-one's surprise-- I am phlegmatic.

You are Phlegmatic!
You're Phlegmatic! You are ruled by the Phlegm. As
a Phlegmatic, you are calm, quiet, easy-going,
dependable, objective, diplomatic, efficient,
organised, practical, and humourous.
Unfortunately, you can also be unmotivated, a
procrastinator, selfish, stingy,
self-protective, indecisive, fearful, or
worryful at times.


Which of the four Humours are you?

I am Choleric! I am ruled by the Yellow Bile. As a Choleric, I am strong-willed, independent, visionary, practical, productive, decisive, and a good leader. Unfortunately, I can also be cold and unemotional, too self-sufficient, impetuous, domineering, unforgiving, sarcastic, angry, or cruel at times.

I'm glad I got to see a picture! It's very pretty -- congratulations! :) (I had been imagining something much darker, something in a Byzantine church or whatever.)

Well, it would actually be a *light* thing in a Byzantine church. :-)It looks way better when lit - then it glows because the glass reflects the flame. Islamic glass hanging lamps were compared with God, the one light glowing in the darkness...

Heh...I guess I usually think of Byzantine churches as dark, although I've been in enough Greek Orthodox worship places to know that precious metals are often involved, and that can be light.../end rambling

Cool. :) Makes me want to go back in time...or at least travel.

The Polycandelon is beautiful. I especially like the quality of the glass.

And I came out as Sanguine. Woot! Sanguinity was something to be desired, if I remember Eldred's class on the four humors. Not a very interesting test, though. Ah well.
