Expecto Petronum

For the A-Z Blog challenge, I will be addressing some of life's big questions. Perhaps together we can find the answers to many heretofore unsolvable mysteries.


is for Petronus


This really is the question of a lifetime: What is your petronus?

Well, there is a simple way to find out. Warner Bros has an official petronus app that you can access here.

It's a Facebook app, so you might need a Facebook account to make it work. But it's the easiest (and fastest) way to determine your petronus.

Hint: if you follow the link and click allow and it doesn't work. Close the window and try the link again. That worked for me the first time.

Hint #2: You have to really think hard about the questions to make it work. (As I recall, there are only two.)

Here's mine:
How cool is that?

Did you take the quiz? What is your petronus? Even if you don't take the quiz, tell me what you'd want or expect your petronus to be.

Bonus: Expecto Petronum

Although it always bothered me that we don't see the stag in this scene.

Tomorrow's Question:
May the Force Be You?

  1. I haven't taken the quiz and avoid Facebook apps so I probably won't take the quiz (even though it sounds awesome) but I'd definitely want my patronus to be a wolf too.

  2. I got a doe. Not sure how I feel about that.

    1. You got a doe because they are gentle and motherly. :) Happy Birthday!

  3. I got a stag (I think?), but I'd love my patronus to be a horse, kind of like the Black Stallion. I'm a Sagittarius, so I really identify with centaurs :-)

    Several family members would say I would be a snake. And wouldn't you know it! I'm a Snake in the Chinese zodiac...

    1. A stag is awesome. Horses are cool too. In Chinese Zodiac I'm a monkey...

  4. I am sure mine would be a photo of John Wayne or a Krakken. That would be sweet. Haha

    1. A Krakken petronus would totally rock. It's official, that's what I'm giving you for a petronus.

  5. The problem is...I want a REAL patronus. And magic. And a wand. I don't want to be a Muggle!

    1. I'm right there with you. I want a REAL patronus and everything magic too! Why is make-believe so much for exciting?

  6. I would hope my patronus would be an earthworm. They're just so... flexible...

  7. No. No earthworms allowed. Too close to a leach, and you know the kinds of trouble we have with those.

  8. I took two different patronus quizzes and I got two different results. Toad and Lynx. I didn't take the one you have here because I couldn't get the link to work. BTW I'm disappointed that you chose patronus as your P word instead of the obvious P for Priscilla

    1. I wanted to do Priscilla, but I couldn't think of sarcastic, snarky, or scathing question to ask. Other than WHY DID YOU MOVE AWAY?

    2. PS: I'd stick with the lynx if I were you.
