What's your enneagram type?

"The Enneagram is a personality typing system that consists of nine different types. Everyone is considered to be one single type, although one can have traits belonging to other ones."

Basically, it's a different personality typing system that takes many different factors into account, generally focusing on motivation. It's not uncommon for there to be a lot of enneagram variance between communities of the same MBTI type and vice versa.

[Tarrick]

I tested out as a "Type 1" but was very close as both a "Type 8" and "Type 5"

Type 1 - 9.3
Type 8 - 8.3
Type 5 - 8.3
Type 9 - 4
Type 2 - 2.3

Very curious...

[qwerty]

Very weird results -
I was type 3 with a wing of 4 on the first test
And type 9 on the second test.
Between the two tests type 3 and 4 did not appear highly on the second test and type 9 did not appear highly on the the first test.

[Jezebel]

My results are never consistent, but I get 5 most of the time, followed by 6, 9, 8 and 1. I got 5w6 again this time around. I don't particularly like the enneagram system much.

[Jack]

Type 4-balanced.

[Rei]

I have no clue what these mean... Will read up on it later...
[hr]
Test 1:
Type 1 - 10
Type 5 - 9.3
Type 3 - 8.7
Followed by type: 2, 8, 4, 7, 9

Wing 1w2 - 13.8
Wing 1w9 - 13.2
Wing 2w1 - 12.7
Wing 5w4 - 12.7

Test 2:
5, 8, 1, 2, 6, 7, 3, 9, 4

That's wierd...
I didn't like the second test though. When the scale to choose from is that large, it's really hard to decide how extreme you are. =/

Edited with second test results.

[Firelie]

How do you tell what the wings are?

[Jezebel]

How do you tell what the wings are?

I just took the first test he linked to. My results said:

"You are most likely a type 5.

Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 5w6."

[Rei]

What exactly are "wings" anyway?

[Jezebel]

Usually one has characteristics of one of the types that lie adjacent to one's own that are more prominent. This is called the wing. So someone who is a type 5, might have a 4 wing or a 6 wing. This may be abbreviated to "5w4" and "5w6". If one doesn't have a dominant wing, it is said that the wings are balanced.

[Firelie]

You are most likely a type 5 (the Investigator) with 4 wing.

[Rei]

I see... thank you

[Apococlock]

"You are most likely a type 9.

Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 9w1."

"Type 9 - 9.7
Type 6 - 9
Type 1 - 8.7
Type 2 - 8.7
Type 8 - 8
Type 5 - 7.7
Type 3 - 7
Type 7 - 6.7"

I'm a peacemaker eh? Not surprising.

edit: After reading the description, I'm not sure that I entirely agree with it. This does seem to be a fairly inaccurate test =/.

[Capwolf]

I find it interesting how many of the people responding really don't find enneagram at all useful. I find that it describes me better than MBTI, as MBTI describes my behaviors and general preferences - which I was already mostly well aware of - while the enneagram describes my motivation, basic/driving need, and (for lack of a better term) emotional fixations, which still sometimes trip me up through lack of understanding. I find MBTI far more useful in categorizing other people (whose internal worlds I'm not privy to), but enneagram gives me insight into myself, and lets me better understand what's behind the behaviors that lead to (or confuse) a Myers-Briggs type when I know someone else's E-type.

It might be difficult to figure out which type fits you best, but (like with MBTI) online tests won't necessarily give you the answer right away, and you might need to poke around to see which one works best for you as a whole. What I found most useful for enneagram was looking at the nutshell descriptions and then the basic fears & desires and see what hits you. For example, from here (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.):

1 - I do everything the right way.

4 - I am unique.

5 - I need to understand the world.

6 - I am affectionate and skeptical.

9 - I am at peace.

But maybe I just find it easy to decide and easy to see myself in the nutshell descripton because I very clearly identify with one type.

[Firelie]

I dunno, mine fit pretty darn well. 5 (which sounds a lot like the INTJ description), combined with 4 as a wing... there's a lot on the 4 description that really fits (my obsession with being unique and indulging in fantasy, for instance)

[Rei]

I don't think this system is as well rounded as the MBTI system...
Don't like it that much... but maybe if I read a little more about it

[StJimmy]

Type 5 - 9.3
Type 8 - 7.3
Type 1 - 7.3

[deicruxified]

You are most likely a type 1.

Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 7w8 or 8w7.

It is not clear from these test results which Enneagram type and wing you are.

To determine your true type, you might want to start by considering the types with the highest scores on the lists below. Also, there are many fine books and other websites that contain detailed descriptions of the types. Consulting these might give you the information you need to determine your true type. As knowing your Enneagram type involves self-knowledge, you might want to observe and analyze your behavior and motivations. You might also benefit from taking the test again later.
(Note that your lowest scores may be omitted.)

i got 5 on the other one

[Jbmontag]

I scored highest on both as a 5. A couple more tests seem to indicate a 5w6.

[Max T]

Type 1 - 10
Type 5 - 7
Type 8 - 6
Type 9 - 5.3

Wing 1w9 - 12.7
Basically driven, curious and peaceseeker.

I agree with Capwolf- MBTI is more behavioural and E-gram more emotional.

For those of us with say 3+ point difference between first and second type, E-gram's first type is likely something we can quickly relate to.
For those with less than 1.5 points separating first and second, probably need more reading into it (and risk selectively retaining bits of types!).

[Frank]

Im a 5w6 and i think it is accurate for me.

Very strange test, this anagram or enemagram or whatever it's called.

The first test said I'm a 7, with "wings" possibly 5w4 and 7w8, whatever that means.

The second test said I'm a 5.

I'll go with 5, but I think the descriptions are not that accurate. It reads like I am the way I am due to my fears, which is pure unadulterated shite. First of all I'm not that afraid of anything, and second of all I think we are more defined by our interests rather than by our fears and aversions.

I really do feel like both the 4 and 6 are equal as ''wings'', those other numbers didn't stand a chance.

[GOD]

You are most likely a type 3 or 8.
Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 8w7.
It is not clear from these test results which Enneagram type and wing you are.

Wing 8w9 - 11.8
Wing 1w9 - 11.5
Wing 7w8 - 11.3

Actually I quite like the 8w7 title, To be a challenger and an enthusiast. Hmm there's a lot of 2 in there.. Hmm.. I'm slipping to the dark side... I care about people.. *:scared:

Eights are essentially unwilling to be controlled, either by others or by their circumstances; they fully intend to be masters of their fate. Eights are strong willed, decisive, practical, tough minded and energetic.

Sevens are essentially concerned that their lives be an exciting adventure. They are future oriented, restless people who are generally convinced that something better is just around the corner. They are quick thinkers who have a great deal of energy and who make lots of plans. They tend to be extroverted, multi-talented, creative and open minded. *

Test 2...

Your main type is Type 8

Eights are natural leaders, Frank and direct with large personalities, they are unlikely to back down in the face of adversity. They motivate others. They have strong sense of justice and are often protectors of the weak. 8s can be domineering tyrants :-X

[INTJoe]

I didn't care for this test.

I "scored" as "We couldn't figure out what you are but you are most likely Type 5, or Type 6."

My scores:

Type 6: 10.3
Type 5: 10.3
Typle 3: 9.3
Type 7: 6

Wings: 5w6 or 6w5.

Wing 6w5 15.5
5w6 15.5
6w7 13.3
5w4 11.5
7w6 11.2
3w4 10.5
3w2 9.5
7w8 6.7

...whatever all this jargon means. :o

[Nomad]

I'm apparently a type 1sx, with a close 8sx and a close 5sx following up. I can see what they say, but I lack the temper. Most things don't bother me, let alone piss me off. I am a bad one in a fight, though.

My type 8w7

I have consistetly tested as an 8. The profile fits me spot on. I, like a few of you like the Enneagram system. I find the MBTI to be a bit boring. I tend to think about people and their behaviors quite a bit, and the Enneagram system seems to explain alot about the motivations behind many peoples behaviors . This tends to get my intuition going more than the MBTI. Just my opinion. There are many good things about both systems.

I tend to be very business oriented with the goal to accumulate as much money and resources as possible, which is consistent with the type 8 profile. All i do all day is think about how to build my empire. Feels weird say that in a public forum, but other INTJ 8's probably can relate. There dosn't seem to be very many INTJ=8 here. Anybody have any thoughts on why that is? I'm curious to see what other people think about the reason behind all the different Enneagram types and the same MBTI type results. I have some theories of my own and would like to see if thee are any similarities of thought.

Hmmm... I can agree with you entirely (As I used to think), although you should examine the absolute reason why you are trying to accumulate as much money as possible.

Just maybe, in the process of the "accumulation" you will realise that you have had to sacrifice (trappings of wealth) so much that the acquisition of that wealth obliviously is not what drives you forward.

You'll see, the joust of intellectual combat.. The ability to say "I can do" and compete others in different industries (and beat them) is just maybe what it’s about... The challenger.

[chocky]

5w4

Curious that both intps and intjs seem to frequently type as fives.

[OneBadMother]

When I was younger, 5w2. Now I think it's 5w6.

My results are never consistent.

This time it said :

Enneagram Test Results

You are most likely a type 5.

No personality test is completely accurate. Although several measures were taken to make this test as accurate as possible, there's always a chance that you are not typed correctly by it. Therefore, when deciding which Enneagram type and wing you are, you might also want to consider the types with the highest test scores on the lists below.

GOD,

Cool nickname by the way.

I see what you are saying. The motivtions behind the accumulation of money vary for me. I was born into a poor family and my father was an type 8 as well. He was an immigrant and had the appetite for money, but could not get out of his own way to make it. When this happened he took it out on my mother and I. To sum it up, i'm one of the commonly abused type 8's that are described in our type profile.

The Challenger nickname actually fits great for me. The main motivations for me are
1. The Challenge my father bestowed on me since he failed, plus many other peoples unbelief in me
2. My intense fear of being poor again
3. Basically proving peoples judgements about me wrong, and in a huge way
4. I like to challenge people to do better in a positive way, so i need to back it up by example
5. I enjoy the challenge of building an empire. Long term challenges are fun for me, but the payoff has to be huge.

The only way to prove this to the people i feel the need to prove wrong is wth success and money. Naturally i turned my attention to making money for this reason (i have always been interested in money, but at this point i started coming up with ideas to make it), and as i worked on ideas to make money i kept toppig my last idea until i got into the realm of being wealthy with my business ideas. Once i came up with a idea/plan that has more potential for accumulating wealth with less work by me i could not turn back to the previous idea. There is no way i can stop progressing now. When i stop thinking about my business or other things that require focus i get extremely bored and anxious. Like i want to jump out of my own skin because of my energy levels being so high. Very uncomfortable sensations. I tend to avoid boredom as much as possible.

sorry for rambling on, but it feels good to be able to get this out of my head. By the way i'm not complaining about being this way. I actually like who i am. I just wanted to show the motivations that end up accumulating wealth in the process. I know there is more but it is hard to think of it all on the spot.

OFL *:thumbsup:

I can see where you've come from and your primary initial reasons.

However, I still think that as you become successful then you'll see the accumulation of money to appear successful in other people’s eyes; disappear (Hopefully). And then what will all this effort be really for? (You’ll have to think and work until you're half dead to achieve it).

If you treat it as a game, and do it because you enjoy it. You don't give a damn about what other people think (rich or poor) (And you have to deny yourself a lot of the trappings of wealth to achieve it) then it might be a positive thing to do. If you just require status then just study hard and become a lawyer or CPA etc.

If you don't have money to start with and your smart enough to succeed in the academic system then you'll probably go for the low risk option of the 9-5 job initially (That pays well) and then slowly build up your business ideas.... Then you'll work 24/7. Many people who are successful are more "lucky" than people give them credit for... to definitely achieve straight out huge business success is a tall order. You'll see.

Also, from this stats thread it appears that type 8's are at most c6% of INTJ's which are 2% of society.

[maai]

Tested again today. Was beginning to have doubts? Still INTJ

so - INTJ 51647 sp/so/sx

[OFL]

GOD,

I see what you are seeing. For me, now, it is not really about the money itself or the people i wanted to prove wrong. It used to be a few years back. That list i gave was the motivations that got me to where i am now. I literally enjoy the challenge of taking on such projects. It is just like a game like you said. Some people have fun playing sports (which i do too), playing video games, etc. I like thinking of business ideas that will pay off. I already have quite a few that i have fully researched already and I have a financial backer. I already have been to the university and got through my junior year, but got so bored that i dropped out to make my ideas a reality (i could never work a regulr 9-5 job for very long, it drives me crazy, way too routine for me). I'm not trying to compete with the likes of Gates, Buffet, The Waltons. Those were very smart people that came up with ideas at the right times and capitalized on the situation as best as possible. I think it is a little more than just luck on their part. I am fully aware of what makes these people successful. I have studied them and other very successful people(financially or not).

Work for me is not a big deal when i'm working for myself. Hard work is like play for me. I have a powerful drive that has nothing to do with anybody doubting me. I'm doing this to prove it to myself that i'm capable of being very successful, like i said not success like the top of the financial world. Just enough to not have to worry about money and something to leave my futue generations. Empire sounds like such a big word in the financial world, but i don't mean it in the gigantic way. I mean it in more in the sense of a regular empire in a less crowded buisness arena. Where you might not even here of my name if i was at the top of the game.

I have so many more angles covered, but it is just to hard to write them all out. To sum it up your idea about me treating it as a game is where my head is at now. My health level in the enneagram is actually between levels 1 & 2. I'm doing all this for the right reasons now. A couple of years ago i was how you are describing as an unhealthy. I was mad at many people, but i have distanced myself from those people and think much more clearly now.

I'm not trying to argue with you, just elloborating more on what i said earlier. I see where your coming from.

I think it is a little more than just luck on their part. I am fully aware of what makes these people successful. I have studied them and other very successful people(financially or not).

Work for me is not a big deal when i'm working for myself. Hard work is like play for me. I have a powerful drive that has nothing to do with anybody doubting me. I'm doing this to prove it to myself that i'm capable of being very successful, like i said not success like the top of the financial world. Just enough to not have to worry about money and something to leave my futue generations. Empire sounds like such a big word in the financial world, but i don't mean it in the gigantic way. I mean it in more in the sense of a regular empire in a less crowded buisness arena. Where you might not even here of my name if i was at the top of the game.

I have so many more angles covered, but it is just to hard to write them all out. To sum it up your idea about me treating it as a game is where my head is at now. My health level in the enneagram is actually between levels 1 & 2. I'm doing all this for the right reasons now. A couple of years ago i was how you are describing as an unhealthy. I was mad at many people, but i have distanced myself from those people and think much more clearly now.

I'm not trying to argue with you, just elloborating more on what i said earlier. I see where your coming from.

OFL *;D

Don't worry about disagreeing... that’s what it’s all about.

The main thing is to have enough energy to never give up (If you can work till 2am and then go and do a day job then you have what it takes)... and think so much that you can overcome anything that gets in the way. Hopefully you'll think of so many ideas that you can prioritize them to take on the one that has the best payoff for the least risk and meets all the other parameters that exist (maybe lack of capital etc etc).

Goodluck..

[OFL]

I'm so used to regular forums where people can take offense to the way i speak. I have to get used to being around so many INTJs.

I totally agree with you on your opinion of what it takes to be that successful. Have you ever done research into Dabrowski's Positive Disintegration Theory. It is a developmental potential theory that is very interesting. It is related to intelligence levels and the nervous systems response to the different levels. Th reasn i mention it is you seem to be caught up with the energy levels required to accomplish such great feats. This article answers alot about how these people get the drive, motivation, energy to make thier vision happen. I seen you have an IQ that is tested as high as 145. Some or all of these traits might apply to you. I have many traits in every one of the groups that are listed. Especialy the energy levels. All the greatest minds in the world have had many traits from this theory (Sir Isaac Newton, Albert Einstien, Wiliam Sidis; Business leaders Bill Gates, Donald Trump, etc). You don't havet have very strong OE's (over-excitabilties) to a genius or beng highly intelligent, but it does make a diference if you hve a IQ generally over 160. The srength ofhe OE's are dependent usually on how intelligent te person is as an individual. If you choose to read the theory yoight undersatnd where i'm comng from, because i have very strong OE's that have disruptd my life in the past until i got a handle on them. This is why i might come off as over confident in my abilities. It took me a very long time to get where i am now and had to endure some nasty thing in my life, but that has only proved my strength and will. If i can get out of that and still be healthy as i am. I know that any obstacle that may come my way is nothing compared to what i already have went through, so i have geat perspective about hardships.

It also helps to be a very independent thinker and have looser morals compared to most people. Nothing illegal, to be that successful you can't be too morally correct because many things in business require you to dominate your opopnent in many ways and most are not that nice if at all. Thankfully i'm a very aggessive and assertive person when i'm in competition. I have been that way since i was old enough to display that kind of behavior.

I don't believe it is arrogant to have so much confidence in my abilities to say that the empire i envision everyday is going to happen (i'm not saying you accused me of this). I believe it is completey needed in order to make things happen, there has to be little doubt about the overall picture. The smaller details can be doubted and worked upon.

What is your variant by the way (on the test)? I'm thinking self-preservation. The way you express your concern for what it takes to be that successful really reminds me of my INTP best friends dad, who is a Type 8 INTJ who tests strong on the self preservation variant. I test as a Sexual variant, like my father. That is the variant that takes the most risk out of the 8's. that might explan why we see thinigs a little different. Were you adventurous when you were young, taking risks. I have been a risk taker my whole life (calculted risk of course. im not reckless). I think that risk taking is vital to the entreprenuer way of life. You can not be scared of much because it is a volitle business, and you can lose so much very fast. From reading through the forum it seems there are alot of non-risky INTJs here. I'm not judging, just observing.

I'm going to wrap it up now. If you want to talk about business or how personality theory relates to the entire world, I have many more insights. Let me Know.

Mine came out as:

I identify with the 5w4 more though. Like Jezebel, I'm not crazy about the system.


2nd test: 1 - so/sp/sx Very inaccurate. Crappy test.

[Gabrielle]

I don't know if I'm 5w6 or 3w4. I keep switching.

[justmeiguess]

I'm 5w6, apparently.

On the second test I'm a 6.

Both fit quite well. I suppose it depends on your mood when you take the test as to what your preference will be.

[timewarpson]

As with several others here, I am a 5 with almost even wings but typically leaning slightly towards the 4 side.

[Maverick]

1/8w9 here.

I find the enneagram system inspiring in order to think of possible hypotheses concerning the motivations of a person. However, I do not put much stock in it considering that little scientific evidence exists in favor of it. It still remains pop psychology and is completely disregarded by proper psychologists in academic circles.

The descriptions of the wings and some parts of the main tendency don't really fit me, though.

5w6 on the first test, I liked the results. Fairly accurate.

type 4 on the second test. Didn't really fit me much though...

[Danisty]

I really hate the questions on this test. Each one had too many variables for me. Depending on which part of the question was important, I could have said yes or no to most of them. Type 8 is probably fairly accurate, but I think this test really puts you into a box too much.

I took the other 2 tests, one gave me the same results but a self-preservation variant, which I don't agree with. The other one gave me type 1 which I don't agree with and a social variant which i also don't agree with. I believe out of the options, I'm the sexual variant (not to be confused with sexual deviant ;D) I'm probably closest to a type 8, but I'm nowhere near as violent as they make me out to be and if I could have any type as a wing rather than just one next to mine, I'd choose 5.

[Booko]

I seem to be a tie with types 1, 5 and 8.

Reading the thread that seems pretty common for us INTJ types.

I found some of the questions darned difficult to answer. Maybe mom is right -- I think too much. :laugh:

People of this personality type essentially fear that they don't have enough inner strength to face life, so they tend to withdraw, to retreat into the safety and security of the mind where they can mentally prepare for their emergence into the world. Fives feel comfortable and at home in the realm of thought. It's all explained here, no wonder why I haven't tried to get my driver's license yet, I've been preparing the whole time subconsciously. They also know I live with my parents.;D


Trying to bridge the distance can be difficult for Fives, as they are seldom comfortable with their social skills, but when they do manage it, they are often devoted friends and life long companions. My social life described in one sentence...

[karen]

I took both tests and came up as a 1 1st, 5 2nd, and 9 3rd on both of them.

[Richard0612]

I've taken a few enneagram tests and nearly always come out as 5w6 [not surprising, seeing the similarities with INTJ]. However, I took the shorter test and came out as a 1w9. Odd, eh?

[errrzarrr]

I took the test #2 (instinctual subtype) from eclecticenergies.com and I came out with these results:

I've taken this twice about 2 weeks apart and got the same results both times. Both 5 and 7 tie each time.

You are most likely a type 5 or 7.
Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 7w8 or 8w7.
It is not clear from these test results which Enneagram type and wing you are.

To determine your true type, you might want to start by considering the types with the highest scores on the lists below. Also, there are many fine books and other websites that contain detailed descriptions of the types. Consulting these might give you the information you need to determine your true type. As knowing your Enneagram type involves self-knowledge, you might want to observe and analyze your behavior and motivations. You might also benefit from taking the test again later.
(Note that your lowest scores may be omitted.)

the Individualist (identity seekers, who feel unique and different) and the Investigator (thinkers who tend to withdraw and observe)
- not inaccurate

Many of the descriptions seemed a bit negative though, focussing on insecurities rather than things we do well on. It was interesting but didn't seem as comprehensive as the mbti - though it is more motive-based rather than behaviour-based (as someone above pointed out).

The Enneagram Type is new for me ... probably depressing, if :undecided: I understand what it means.

This is the read out from the Enneagram Institute Sampler (36-Qs):
[Maybe I should just kill myself now ...]

TYPE1 - 7 Reformer
TYPE2 - 0
TYPE3 - 6 Achiever
TYPE4 - 3
TYPE5 - 7 Investigator
TYPE6 - 2
TYPE7 - 3
TYPE8 - 5 Challenger
TYPE9 - 3

:scared:

[eMachine]

On the first test I scored

Type 5 - 11
Type 9 - 7
Type 6 -5.7
5w6 - 13.8
5w4 - 13.2
6w5 - 11.2

On the second test

Type 5 - 19
Type 6 - 16

I think that 'deep down' I am a Type 9, but conditioning and environment causes me to be Type 5 or Type 6. It says that Type 9 tend to take on traits of people they are very close to, I feel this is definitely correct for me. My constant interaction with my husband causes me to have his Type 6 traits, and he also intensifies my 'natural' Type 5 traits. If I were still single and independent (no husband or kids) I would be predominantly Type 9 still, but no original thought passes through my mind without being immediately and unconsciously followed by answers to WWHD ("what would hubby do?").

Type 5 - 12.3
Type 1 - 10
Type 8 - 6.7

Wing 5w4 - 15.2

Other test:

Social variant
Type 1 SO
Type 5 SX
Type 8 SP

I can see some of the 1w9 influence in myself, but think I'm predominantly 5.

[skc127]

I have known about and studied the enneagram (as well as MBTI and Keirsey) for years. I am a 5 with a slight 4 wing: an observer type (5) with strong individualistic leanings (4).

8 and 1. 8 is pretty weird for INTJ :S and besides that one, all mine are SX :S What's wrong with me :(

[ArchonAlarion]

5wb self preservation variant

[lancelot]

Type 1

[pavman]

I took the intuitive test first and then the main one...below are the results. I have no clue what these mean. I did Enneagram years ago, but forget what I got (probably 8 ;)


Intuitive Test: Type 8 Challenger with a strong SX (sexual varient)
Regular Test:
You are most likely a type 1.

Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 1w2 or 8w7.

It is not clear from these test results which Enneagram type and wing you are.

To determine your true type, you might want to start by considering the types with the highest scores on the lists below. Also, there are many fine books and other websites that contain detailed descriptions of the types. Consulting these might give you the information you need to determine your true type. As knowing your Enneagram type involves self-knowledge, you might want to observe and analyze your behavior and motivations. You might also benefit from taking the test again later.
(Note that your lowest scores may be omitted.)
Type 1 - 11
Type 8 - 10.7
Type 3 - 9
Type 5 - 7.7
Type 2 - 3.7
Type 9 - 3.3

Wing 8w7 - 13
Wing 1w2 - 12.8
Wing 1w9 - 12.7
Wing 8w9 - 12.3

Wing 2w1 - 9.2
Wing 9w1 - 8.8
Wing 9w8 - 8.6
Wing 2w3 - 8.2

[Snowdragon]

3 with a dominant 4 wing.

[nonentropic]

i've taken these test several times before over the past year or 2. i don't use the wing theory...i just focus on the first 3 or 4 types that i scored highest on...for these are the ways in which i function most often (concurrent admixtures of all the possible ways of bieng and acting in sum but distilled to a theoretcial specific). ie. 5-1-8 ...as for global sloan/big 5 i'm RCOEI.

[simplisticjoy]

I'm a 5w4, and I find the Enneagram AMAZINGLY helpful. Where the MBTI is very behavioral focused, it is also very positive. The Enneagram is motivationally focused, not emotional - so it often opens up for me those little things under the surface that I would prefer not to look at when I want to 'just be okay' with myself (but that usually is my point of disintegration coming out, the 7).

All that to say that it's helpful because it has so many options - wings, points of integration/disintegration, and dominant type. Once I began to understand how the system worked, it really pulled out key aspects of my character as well as my personality. I like that.

[Terian]

5 and 7 are tied for me.

[ssrprotege]

Depends on which test it is; I get either 5w4, 5w6, or sometimes even 1w9.

[tp6626]

1w9. Whats that mean?

[cctip8895]

You are most likely a type 8 (the Challenger) with 7 wing

[Jane]

5 wing 4, spot on for me.

Type 5: 10
Type 1: 9.6
Type7: 7

Followed by 8, 3, 9, 4, 6, 2.


Especially this: They sometimes deal with this by developing a minimalistic lifestyle in which they make few demands on others in exchange for few demands being made on them.

Ditto for me =)

[Malotis]

My strongest number was 5 followed by 6 and 7. It labeled me as a 5w6 and I think it's accurate.

[Neuro]

I got type 1 for the first test. 1w2 for wings. Pretty strong over all the others.

The 2nd test gave me type 6 with type 1 following. I think the 2nd test is a bit more accurate, a mix between those two. Not as profound as the MBTI tests surely but I'm looking forward to learning more about the enneagram types still.

Type 4 - The Individualist

Identity seekers, who feel unique and different, though I have gotten 7 before.

Enneagram type 4 - The IndividualistPeople of this personality type tend to build their identities around their perception of themselves as being somehow different or unique; they are thus self-consciously individualistic. Fours tend to see their difference from others as being both a gift and a curse - a gift, because it sets them apart from those they perceive as being somehow "common," and a curse, as it so often seems to separate them from the simpler forms of happiness that others so readily seem to enjoy. Thus, Fours can manage to feel superior to others while also secretly harboring some degree of longing and envy. A feeling of being a member of the "true aristocracy" alternates with deep feelings of shame, and fears of somehow being deeply flawed or defective.

Fours are emotionally complex and highly sensitive. They long to be understood and appreciated for their authentic selves, but easily feel misunderstood and unappreciated. They have a tendency to withdraw in the face of a world that seems harsh or crude, and are often somewhat moody or temperamental. They are emotionally centered and spend much of their lives immersed in their internal mental landscapes, where they feel free to cultivate and analyse their feelings. A desire to manifest this internal world often leads Fours to an interest in the arts, and some do become actual artists. Whether artistic or not, however, most Fours are aesthetically sensitive and concerned with self-expression and self-revelation, whether it be in the clothes they wear or in the overall nature of their often idiosyncratic lifestyles.

Fours are somewhat melancholic by disposition, and under stress tend to lapse into depression. They also tend to be self-absorbed, even under the best of circumstances, but when unbalanced, easily give way to a self-indulgence which they perceive as being fully justified as a way to compensate for the general lack of pleasure they experience in their lives. Rather than look for practical solutions to their difficulties, Fours are prone to fantasizing about a savior who will rescue them from their unhappiness.

Yup, that's me all right! I've done a lot of reading on the Enneagram and find it endlessly fascinating. For a long time, I couldn't decide whether I was a 5 or 4, but I think I am primarily analytical and introverted, secondarily emotional and imaginative.

[Antisocialite]

I'm an Eight and I found this funny description the other day:

Leader


Your core personality is probably Enneagram Type 8, the LEADER, also known as the BOSS or the ASSHOLE.

You like to be in control and assert your will on other people -- especially children, the elderly, and service employees. You often shout, swear, get red in the face, pound on or throw things, and tug at your pants. You claim not to care what other people think, yet you want them to fear you as often as possible. You love to protect other people, especially women, then ridicule them as weak and incompetent.

Your SECRET JOYS are turning a screw or locknut extra tight, haranguing clerks or waitresses about bad service, imposing senseless work procedures on helpless underlings, installing The ClubTM on your car's steering wheel, and cleaning your shotgun.

Some of your SECRET FEARS are that you will feel afraid, that you will feel afraid of your fear of feeling afraid, that you will have a prostate exam, that you will thrill to the prostate exam, that you will take a shower with a homosexual, or that you will be insulted by a car full of black teenagers.

Under STRESS you begin to move toward Enneagram Type 5, the THINKER. You develop insane justifications for your need to control others, and may succumb to conspiracy theories or unbridled hatred of government. You spout intricate rationales for segregation, euthanasia, and a full deployment of stealth technology.

AT YOUR BEST you begin to move toward Enneagram Type 2, the HELPER. You become infatuated with your supposed ability to help others, intrude yourself into a variety of highly visible charity roles, and develop self-serving stories about your desire to "give back to the community" -- all the time making sure you get a nice little kickback on the side.

[Linwenilid]

I'm a 5w6 or a 9w1, with a self preservation variant. I'm especially puzzled about this statement, about Nines:

"Nines frequently mistype themselves as they have a rather diffuse sense of their own identities. This is exacerbated by the fact that Nines often merge with their loved ones and through a process of identification take on the characteristics of those closest to them.[...]Intellectual Nines, especially males, frequently mistype as Fives, but Fives are intellectually contentious whereas Nines are conciliatory and conflict avoidant."

I think I might be mistyping, then.

A wing can only be one of the two numbers on either side of your enneagram type. So if you are a type 1, you could only be 1w9 or 1w2. As a type 3, you could only be 3w2 or 3w4. There's a theory called a trifix and another called a tritype, each involves a 3 number type, one number from each center (head, heart, and gut), but each of those numbers can also have a wing (for an example, see my profile).

Edit:

Pretty good, although jealousy - I have reservations there. I don't consider myself jealous at all. What good does it bring other than pain and in extreme cases foolish behavior?

1w2 - Seeking Rightness and Love

* LifeExplore

This wing generally brings more interpersonal warmth. High standards are tempered by humanism. May understand and partly forgive humanity for not doing its best. Work hard to improve the conditions of others, sacrificing time and energy to do good works. When more entranced, can be volatile and self-righteous. Authoritarian inflation and moral vanity on the low side. Can give scolding lectures or display a kind of touchy emotionalism. "Do as I say, not as I do" attitudes possible. Hypocrisy likely because the person is so convinced they have moral good intentions. Overlook inconsistencies in their own behavior. Dependency in relationships. Far more likely to be a jealous intimate subtype than Ones with a 9 wing.

The wings are like an addition to your main personality type, so yours for instance would mean you're a type 5 with inclinations of 6, I don't know if you can have a double wing though, but I'm a 5 too but I could go either way with a wing of 4 or 6 myself. I tested higher as a 4 than a 6 on a different Enneagram test before. Personally I like the MBTI and Jung's theories of personalities better than the Enneagram system.

[Synapse]

I'm sure a thread similar to this died a long time ago, so let's bring it back. What is your Enneagram type?

For the uninformed, an Enneagram is one of 9 types, with each type corresponding to a number (yes, they don't have that familar ring of MBTI, only simplistic things like "1" or "5"). Each type has some familarity to an MBTI type, however, like a "5" a.k.a a "Thinker" is like an INTJ, an introverted and analytical individual who prefers to be themselves and challenge collectivism and all that. You can get tested for yours here (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.). What's unique about the test is that you can simply say "no preference" if one of the questions makes you uncomfortable with leaning towards a specific side. Since some of them reek of extroversion, that's what I put for some of them.

Anyways, I am a 5, a Thinker. A Thinker is basically just another INTJ, like I said, so no difference there, but my secondary type is a 4, which I found quite interesting... It's normal to have a secondary one number away from you, but it's interesting to note their differences, almost like a "shadow": some unconscious that exists but is never fully expressed.

"The Enneagram is a personality typing system that consists of nine different types. Everyone is considered to be one single type, although one can have traits belonging to other ones."

Basically, it's a different personality typing system that takes many different factors into account, generally focusing on motivation. It's not uncommon for there to be a lot of enneagram variance between communities of the same MBTI type and vice versa.

5 followed by 4 (4 wing or w/e) on both tests.

[Alienated]

An interesting thing I noticed was that a Type 5's line of growth points towards a Type 8 which is equivalent to an ENTJ. This says to me that personal growth for an INTJ in becoming more extroverted equates to marketing ideas as products rather than remaining a hardcore Type 5 thinker trapped inside their own head.

The usual descriptions of an INTJ are better at describing me than this test's results.

[BallentineChen]

Not an INTJ, but interesting to see a handful of other type 3w4 Ni's. I partly agree with a previous comment that the enneagram is more accurate when describing behavior vs. "emotion" for the MB, though I think MB is what it is because of the personalities of the its creators. The INFJ description doesn't include the need for recognition at all, and that is a huge part of what I seek, whether I like it or not (and also whether I allow myself to pursue it or not), it's there. I also think that grouped MBTI's seem to have less variability than compared to enneagram types, for 3w4's at least, judging by descriptions I've read on enneagram discussion boards.

This all makes me consider the success of the MBTI among laymen. I think some of its marketing strengths is that it does 1) Focus on more positive traits than the enneagram, which has some focus on rooted fears 2) The descriptions of personality types are more story-like, in terms of creating an image of a person (which might be why there seems to be more variability with the enneagram types), and 3) the whole enneagram "w" deal.

Other interesting things: I have equal scores for 3w4 and 5w6, and I can see definite aspects of all those descriptions in me - four different descriptions. The next closest for me in MBTI is INTJ, and that's the only one.

I thought I was 5w4 (my two wings are fairly balanced, though, but I use 4 wing more than 6 wing). But that belief has been shaken, so I am exploring other personality types. I still put majority of bet on 5w4 (sx/sp or sp/sx) though.

Hmmmm. I've taken this several times and never been completely satisfied with what I've found.

You are most likely a type 7 or 9.
Taking wings into account, you seem to be a 1w9 or 9w1.


Interestingly enough, I have usually tested as 4w5. But after reading the 9 "Peacemaker" (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater.

9w1 SX or, slightly less likely, 5w4 SP. The descriptions of the latter sound equally apt to me in terms of long-term tendencies rather than current-state reflections. But the "most likely" 9w1 result seems about right in the here and now, so I perhaps I just didn't do such a good job considering the big picture instead of the current one. Or maybe I'm just a typical 9 in that "Nines frequently mistype themselves as they have a rather diffuse sense of their own identities." ...

Conflicted between trust and distrust


People of this personality type essentially feel insecure, as though there is nothing quite steady enough to hold onto. At the core of the type Six personality is a kind of fear or anxiety. This anxiety has a very deep source and can manifest in a variety of different styles, making Sixes somewhat difficult to describe and to type. What all Sixes have in common however, is the fear rooted at the centre of their personality, which manifests in worrying, and restless imaginings of everything that might go wrong. This tendency makes Sixes gifted at trouble shooting, but also robs the Six of much needed peace of mind and tends to deprive the personality of spontaneity. The essential anxiety at the core of the type Six fixation tends to permeate the personality with a sort of "defensive suspiciousness." Sixes don't trust easily; they are often ambivalent about others, until the person has absolutely proven herself, at which point they are likely to respond with steadfast loyalty. The loyalty of the Six is something of a two edged sword however, as Sixes are sometimes prone to stand by a friend, partner, job or cause even long after it is time to move on.
Sixes are generally looking for something or someone to believe in. This, combined with their general suspiciousness, gives rise to a complicated relationship to authority. The side of the Six which is looking for something to believe in, is often very susceptible to the temptation to turn authority over to an external source, whether it be in the form of an individual or a creed. But the Six's tendency towards distrust and suspicion works against any sort of faith in authority. Thus, two opposite pulls exist side by side in the personality of enneatype Six, and assume different proportions in different individuals, sometimes alternating within the same individual.
The truly confounding element when it comes to typing Sixes is that there are two fundamentally different strategies that Sixes adopt for dealing with fear. Some Sixes are basically phobic. Phobic Sixes are generally compliant, affiliative and cooperative. Other Sixes adopt the opposite strategy of dealing with fear, and become counter-phobic, essentially taking a defiant stand against whatever they find threatening. This is the Six who takes on authority or who adopts a dare devil attitude towards physical danger. Counter-phobic Sixes can be aggressive and, rather than looking for authorities, can adopt a rebellious or anti-authoritarian demeanour. Counter-phobic Sixes are often unaware of the fear that motivates their actions. In fact, Sixes in general, tend to be blind to the extent of their own anxiety. Because it is the constant back drop to all of their emotions, Sixes are frequently unaware of its existence, as they have nothing with which to contrast it.
Because Sixes so frequently fail to appreciate the extent of their own fear, they often mistype themselves. It is common for instance, for female Sixes to mistype as Twos, especially if they are identified with a helper role, but Sixes have a much more ambivalent attitude towards relationships than do Twos, who generally know exactly what they want. Sixes, failing to recognize their anxiety, can mistype as Nines, but Nines have the ability to relax and to trust in others, neither of which come easily to Sixes. Sixes can mistype as Fours, especially if they have artistic inclinations, but they lack the Four's self-absorption. They can mistype as Fives, especially if they are intellectual, as many Sixes are, but unlike Fives, Sixes tend to be practical. Finally, counter-phobic Sixes can easily mistype as Eights, but they lack the Eight's self-certainty.

5W6. Sounds about right.

Wing 5w6 - 10.7

Wing 8w9 - 7.8

[Austin018]

I have taken tests like this before, and read a book on the subject. Most tests I have taken say I am a Four or a Five, sometimes a Five with a Four Wing (5w4)....I took this latest test, as indicated in the first post this tread...here is what came of that:

Type 5 - 8.7
Type 1 - 7.3
Type 9 - 6.3
Type 4 - 4
Type 6 - 3.7

Wing 5w4 - 10.7
Wing 5w6 - 10.6
Wing 1w9 - 10.5
Wing 9w1 - 10
Wing 1w2 - 8.5
Wing 4w5 - 8.4
Wing 6w5 - 8.1
Wing 9w8 - 7
Wing 6w7 - 5.2
Wing 4w3 - 4.9

I'd say this is pretty accurate, as the description fits me quite well.
The test seems to be thorough enough, certainly better than some of the garbage that is passed off as tests on the Web.

You are most likely a type 5.

More like it. no matter how many times I take this test. I bet you if I took the test again, the 6 might pop up (8 is usually my lowest of the low.) The numbers bump up and down though... but typically 9 is always up there.

[OwenF]

4w5 on the first test and 5w4 tied with 5w6 (flying with two wings) on the second test. I'm usually 5w4.

On both tests I had high 1 and 8 scores, and the high 8 is a little unusual. It could be that I’m feeling a bit more aggressive today, or it could be that some of the 8 questions were tilted more toward an “I am autonomous” kind of 8-ness rather than a “Kneel before Zod!” kind of 8-ness.

Ah well. The Enneagram is always fun.

[Zsych]

I don't know - keeps changing.

First time: 3

Clear 5 with balanced wings.

Type 5 - 10.3

Type 9 - 9
Type 7 - 8
Type 1 - 7.7
Type 4 - 2

I'd say that is a pretty good evaluation.

[fabon]

mine is 4w5. I did it maybe 6 years ago and second time a year ago - the same score. However I think that wings are constantly changing, balancing around our main score. Ie. I had situations when I had a good fun and enjoyed people company and doing some things for the first time like singing in the bus for my schoolmates etc. gave me enough respect and appreciation to cooperate with people and being the part of a group rather than being typical "4" individualist.

It's my first post in the forum, and regret I didn't discover it before. There is something here as I got quickly thru many threads. Avatars are very specific and the pictures on them never attracted me so much on other forums. Interesting point is also that people here are almost not using smiles - like me. Besides topics are really similar to my thoughts etc. thanks for the place!

Type 7, wing 8
The wing is definitely a big complimentary part of my type - and they work together very well except for the fact that I am a great deal more introspective than being outward looking. Also, I don't have anger problems either. Good quiz nonetheless.

It's interesting in that a couple years ago I would have been much more fitting Type 7, wing 6. Kind of glad that I got through that phase.

so = social variant (compliant, friendly)

Just a quick survey from the responses here..it appears that INTJ correspond to type 5 of the enneagram.

I am both. And I think that both describe me pretty well..although neither is completely accurate. After all, we are all complicatedly unique.

I always score the highest on 5, second to that is 1. So, between type 5 & 1

[LifesEcstasy]

Type 1 Reformer....

I'm not sure I agree. I don't often find myself to be practical, tense and unable to relax. The perfectionistic side fits but the rest really doesn't.

The sexual variant does fit - People of the sexual variant are very much interested in one to one contacts. They are looking for intimacy and this may show in sexuality, though not necessarily. Being in a relationship is very important to them. They are the most passionate of the subtypes, being temperamental and having more energy. They have less of a problem with getting into a fight and care less about rules and responsibility.

My 9 wing really hasn't much to say except I'm an introvert, well duh!

Overall I think this test is crap.
