Nine points on a circle, joined by a triangle and a six-sided figure. Each point is a type, and the two beside it are its wings. The symbol reached Europe through G. I. Gurdjieff early in the twentieth century. The nine personality types were set out later, by Oscar Ichazo in the 1960s and Claudio Naranjo in the 1970s, and many teachers have built on them since. The names, questions and descriptions here are our own.
The types sit in three centres. Eight, Nine and One react first from the gut, Two, Three and Four from the heart, and Five, Six and Seven from the head. Each question has one answer from each centre.
Research on the Enneagram is limited and its findings are mixed, and a short self-check like this one can’t settle anything about you. If the result doesn’t ring true, trust yourself over it.
