Enneagram basics

Five short guides to the ideas behind your result. They're best read in order, but each one stands on its own.

  1. Guide 1 What the Enneagram is, and what it isn't A plain guide to the Enneagram: nine types, what drives each one, and why it's a tool for self-reflection, not a diagnosis, a hiring test or a verdict.
  2. Guide 2 The three centres: gut, heart and head The nine Enneagram types fall into three centres: gut, heart and head. What each centre is about, how its three types differ, and what yours can tell you.
  3. Guide 3 Enneagram wings: what your wing means What an Enneagram wing is, how it colours your main type, how Find My Nine works it out, what balanced wings mean, and all 18 wings from 1w9 to 9w1.
  4. Guide 4 Tritype: your strongest type in each centre Your Enneagram tritype is your strongest type in each of the three centres, highest first. How Find My Nine works it out, how to read it, and its limits.
  5. Guide 5 Stress and growth lines How the lines inside the Enneagram figure link each type to two others: the one you may slip toward under stress, and the one you grow toward. All nine.
