And finally, choose a word:

The foremost of the Muses, she presides over epic poetry. You probably love stories of adventure and quests and of course, exciting battles! You watch shows like “The Witcher” and “Game of Thrones” because you love twists and turns and are dying to know how it all turns out!

Calliope

The protector of history and also the guitar, Clio is the perfect Muse to play you a tune and pass on the stories of old! You probably love learning about the past and enjoy listening to music as you read!

Clio

The protector of lyrical and romantic poetry, you are a lover of all things LOVE! Whether it’s sonnets by Shakespeare or just a good rom-com, you love it when characters know JUST what to say to sweep someone off their feet!

Erato

The protector of songs and poetry about death, love, and war, Euterpe is arguably the goth muse. You may not romanticise death, but you do love books and movies and tv shows that don’t shy away from the darker sides of humanity and you aren’t afraid to explore your feelings about them.

Euterpe

The protector of tragedies and the creator of rhetoric speech, I think it’s fair to say Melpomene leans a little more towards the emo side of things. You love books that touch you, but completely shatter you at the same time, and movies that let you cry it all out. Maybe an evening with “Madame Bovary” and “The English Patient” is in order?

Melpomene

Protector of divine hymns, creator of grammar, inventor of geometry…is there anything you CAN’T do? You are the definition of a STEM queen, and who knows, maybe you sing in a choir on the weekends?

Polyhymnia

Protector of the dances, creator of both the harp AND education, seems like the modern equivalent of this muse would be that awesome, amazing, inspiring, talented music or theatre teacher that every school deserves. Maybe you’ll have your own ballet studio or go into musical education? No matter what, you’re sure to inform and inspire wherever you go!

Terpsichore

Protector of comedy and sciences, Thalia is essentially the opposite of her sister Melpomene. Sis, you’re out here designing rockets and curing cancer and STILL making your coworkers smile while you do it!! Way to make the world a better place!!

Thalia

Protector of celestial bodies and creator of astronomy…your head may be in the clouds (or the stars) at times, but you are also brilliant, observant, and detail-oriented. Maybe you’re that person who everyone assumes is a bit slow until you bust out some SERIOUS wisdom on them…Luna Lovegood was a Ravenclaw for a reason, y’all.
