Does Your Myers-Briggs Personality Match Your Hogwarts House?
@hermionegranger_official

If you are by any means a Harry Potter fan, it is likely that you have given some thought to which Hogwarts House you would be placed in if you were a witch or wizard attending the school of witchcraft yourself. These houses separate students according to their personalities, whether their dominant attributes include things such as bravery, loyalty, knowledge, ambition etc.

As the normal muggles we are, we find various ways to separate ourselves based on personality as well; such as extroverts versus introverts. In fact, many people have taken what is called the Myers-Briggs Personality Test to discover which of the 16 different personality types they are. Each of the different personality types is comprised of four letters. The first letter can be an E or I, standing for extrovert and introvert. The second letter is either an N or S, stands for intuition or sensing. The third is a T or F, standing for thinking or feeling. And the fourth is a J or P, standing for judging or perceiving.

You can take this quiz here!

What if your Myers-Briggs personality type somehow correlated to what your Hogwarts House would be? According to the test, here is which Hogwarts House you would supposedly be in based on your results.

Gryffindor

ENTJ, ESFJ, INFP, ISFJ

Known for their bravery and leadership, some Gryffindors may be described as being reckless or blunt. Other staples of your average Gryffindor include chivalry, nerve and being daring. They put their actions to noble causes.

Hufflepuff

ENTP, INFJ, ENFP, ISFP

Known for their hard work and loyalty, a Hufflepuff is a true friend to have. Other staples of a Hufflepuff include patience and dedication. It is the most accepting of all the four houses.

Ravenclaw

INTP, INTJ, ISTJ, ISTP

Known for their wit and creativity, other staples of an average Ravenclaw include originality, intelligence and wisdom. It is hard not to love a crafty mind.

Slytherin

ENFJ, ESTP, ESFP, ESTJ

Known for their ambition, a Slytherin is willing to do whatever they can to succeed. Contrary to popular belief, not all Slytherins are "evil". Their cunning and resourceful nature often leads others to wonder how they always find a way to the top.

Did your Hogwarts House match up the way you expected it to?

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
