About the Enneagram
The Enneagram is an archetypal framework and psycho-emotional-spiritual tool that provides deep insight into individuals, groups, and collectives. It empowers people to take responsibility for their behaviors and growth by offering a clearer understanding of why they act and react the way they do.
What the Enneagram Is
A Tool for Self-Awareness: It reveals subconscious patterns and motivations, allowing individuals to make more conscious choices and break free from reactive habits.
A Map for Growth: It supports personal and interpersonal development by providing insights into personality, instincts, energy, and awareness.
A Holistic Framework: It integrates multiple dimensions, including:
Three Centers of Intelligence (mind, heart, body)
Nine Types and their dynamics
27 Subtypes, wings, and instincts
A Sense-Making System: It helps individuals understand and navigate complex human behaviors and relational patterns.
What the Enneagram Is Not
Not a Personality Box: It doesn’t confine or label people. Instead, it opens pathways for self-discovery, personal evolution, and freedom from automatic patterns.
Not a Quick Fix: Growth through the Enneagram requires reflection, intentionality, and practice. It’s not a surface-level solution.
Not Just Personality Mapping: While often simplified as a personality tool, the Enneagram encompasses much more, addressing deeper layers of intelligence, motivation, and being.
Not a Static System: It’s dynamic and adaptable, offering lifelong opportunities for learning and development.
The Enneagram’s value lies in its capacity to awaken individuals to their true selves and help them live with greater awareness, compassion, and wisdom.
Core Concepts
Type-Specific Patterns: Each person is born with a unique psycho-emotional pattern—a specific way of thinking, feeling, and being. These patterns are shaped further by childhood, family dynamics, social influences, and trauma. Often this connects with temperament.
Self-Awareness: The Enneagram reveals subconscious patterns and motivations. By bringing these to light, we can:
Make wiser choices
Transcend reactive behaviors - respond versus react
Develop healthier ways of being
A Framework of Growth
The Enneagram is a multidimensional tool for self-knowledge and meta-awareness. It’s a rich map for personal development, integrating items such as :
Three Centers of Intelligence: Mind, heart, and body
Dominant 9 Types/ Energies: Core personality patterns
27 Subtypes: 3 Instinct variations of each Dominant Type. Instincts x Dominant Type
Instincts: Self-preservation, social, and sexual instincts
This system offers insights into personality, instincts, energy, and awareness, going far beyond mere personality mapping.
