Daimonic
The idea of the daimonic typically means quite a few things: from befitting a demon and fiendish, to be motivated by a spiritual force or genius and inspired. As a psychological term, it has come to represent an elemental force which contains an irrepressible drive towards individuation. As a literary term, it can also mean the dynamic unrest that exists in us all that forces us into the unknown, leading to self-destruction and/or self-discovery.
==Etymology==
The root of the word has a referent from ''daiomai'', which is translated as something like ''to divide'' or ''to lacerate''.〔
Marie-Louise von Franz delineated the term ''daiomai'' (see ref.), and indicates that its usage is specifically when someone perceived an occurrence which they attributed to the influence of a divine presence, amongst the examples provided by Franz, are from attributing to a daimon the occurrence of a horse becoming or being startled.
According to another source, the term is thought to have originated with the Greeks, by way of Latin—dæmon: "spirit", derived from Greek "δαίμων" (daimon, gen. daimonos): "lesser god, guiding spirit, tutelary deity",〔D Harper - Etymology Online. http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=demon〕 a meaning which is attested to elsewhere.
