	Agathos Daimon
		Agathos Daimon is said by some to have been an aspect of the World Serpent deity venerated in the most ancient of times by the sauroids, one of the five creator races.
		Daimon was distraught by this, for although he respected Selune greatly and admired her fair-mindedness and good judgement, he was apalled at the vanishing of his love.
		Daimon's anger is shown by the discovery of shattered bone dice, wilted vegetation, and of mysterious disruption in a family home, as when a favourite toy is lost for a time, or an item of furniture overtoppled, or a family member is unexpectedly and inconveniently late.

	Personal Daimons
		Philemon was clearly such a daimon for Jung, who emphasized the crucial part this strange Gnostic figure played in his life and work.
		Plato's mentor, Socrates, had a daimon who was famous for always saying "No." It did not enter into rational discourse with Socrates; it merely warned him when he was about to do something wrong (especially something displeasing to the gods), like the prompting of conscience...
		Like Jung, he takes it as read that daimons are objective phenomena and thinks to emphasize only that, paradoxically, they manifest both inwardly (dreams, inspirations, thoughts, fantasies) and outwardly or transcendently (visions and apparitions).

		It is in the Alexandrian middles, Greek-Egyptians, that the Houses were folded back on the zodiacal cycle, and that an artificial system of analogies were set up (12/12), undoubtedly for the needs of the horarist practices.
		There are only eight Houses (The houses 3, 5, 8 and 12 of the twelve folded organization don't exist); they follow one another in the direction of the diurnal movement, because they represent the successive phases of the apparent course of the sun starting from its rising; finally they are centered on their "cusps".
		Moreover I believe to have found the ancient organization of the octotopos in its initial order: horoskopos, agathos daimon, mesouranema, Theos, dysis, kake tuche, hupgeion and aidou pule, the gate of dead which closes the daily cycle.

		Whether the person who handled the money (and the persons who ordered it made) called it Glykon or Agathodaimon or both interchangeably is what I cannot ascertain, though opinions can be found.
		The fact is that agathos daimon means just that, and the household snake is certainly an agathos daimon (while Glykon purported to be more and other than that) suggests that ANY of the four-coiled snakes could be referred to as an agathos daimon, while at Alexandria they had a specific cult of their own.
		The Danube region more likely shared the Pontic cult, but we don't know which of the unlabeled images were referred to as Glykon and had a sub-Asklepieian cult.
