Brief Type Descriptions

Detailed 2,800+ word reports for all types (with new material on relationships, the Instincts, personal growth, and more) are provided with the full Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator, and in our books. See a free, complete expanded type description of Type Eight ("The Challenger") as a sample. Type One
The Reformer
The principled, idealistic type. Ones are conscientious and ethical, with a strong sense of right and wrong. They are teachers, crusaders, and advocates for change: always striving to improve things, but afraid of making a mistake. Well-organized, orderly, and fastidious, they try to maintain high standards, but can slip into being critical and perfectionistic. They typically have problems with resentment and impatience. At their Best: wise, discerning, realistic, and noble. Can be morally heroic.

Type Two
The Helper
The caring, interpersonal type. Twos are empathetic, sincere, and warm-hearted. They are friendly, generous, and self-sacrificing, but can also be sentimental, flattering, and people-pleasing. They are well-meaning and driven to be close to others, but can slip into doing things for others in order to be needed. They typically have problems with possessiveness and with acknowledging their own needs. At their Best: unselfish and altruistic, they have unconditional love for others.

Type Three
The Achiever
The adaptable, success-oriented type. Threes are self-assured, attractive, and charming. Ambitious, competent, and energetic, they can also be status-conscious and highly driven for advancement. They are diplomatic and poised, but can also be overly concerned with their image and what others think of them. They typically have problems with workaholism and competitiveness. At their Best:: self-accepting, authentic, everything they seem to be—role models who inspire others.

Type Four
The Individualist
The introspective, romantic type. Fours are self-aware, sensitive, and reserved. They are emotionally honest, creative, and personal, but can also be moody and self-conscious. Withholding themselves from others due to feeling vulnerable and defective, they can also feel disdainful and exempt from ordinary ways of living. They typically have problems with melancholy, self-indulgence, and self-pity. At their Best: inspired and highly creative, they are able to renew themselves and transform their experiences.

Type Five
The Investigator
The perceptive, cerebral type. Fives are alert, insightful, and curious. They are able to concentrate and focus on developing complex ideas and skills. Independent, innovative, and inventive, they can also become preoccupied with their thoughts and imaginary constructs. They become detached, yet high-strung and intense. They typically have problems with eccentricity, nihilism, and isolation. At their Best: visionary pioneers, often ahead of their time, and able to see the world in an entirely new way.

Type Six
The Loyalist
The committed, security-oriented type. Sixes are reliable, hard-working, responsible, and trustworthy. Excellent "troubleshooters," they foresee problems and foster cooperation, but can also become defensive, evasive, and anxious—running on stress while complaining about it. They can be cautious and indecisive, but also reactive, defiant and rebellious. They typically have problems with self-doubt and suspicion. At their Best: internally stable and self-reliant, courageously championing themselves and others.

Type Seven
The Enthusiast
The busy, productive type. Sevens are extroverted, optimistic, versatile, and spontaneous. Playful, high-spirited, and practical, they can also misapply their many talents, becoming over-extended, scattered, and undisciplined. They constantly seek new and exciting experiences, but can become distracted and exhausted by staying on the go. They typically have problems with impatience and impulsiveness. At their Best: they focus their talents on worthwhile goals, becoming appreciative, joyous, and satisfied.

Type Eight
The Challenger
The powerful, aggressive type. Eights are self-confident, strong, and assertive. Protective, resourceful, straight-talking, and decisive, but can also be ego-centric and domineering. Eights feel they must control their environment, especially people, sometimes becoming confrontational and intimidating. Eights typically have problems with their tempers and with allowing themselves to be vulnerable. At their Best: self-mastering, they use their strength to improve others' lives, becoming heroic, magnanimous, and inspiring.

Type Nine
The Peacemaker
The easy-going, self-effacing type. Nines are accepting, trusting, and stable. They are usually grounded, supportive, and often creative, but can also be too willing to go along with others to keep the peace. They want everything to go smoothly and be without conflict, but they can also tend to be complacent and emotionally distant, simplifying problems and ignoring anything upsetting. They typically have problems with inertia and stubbornness. At their Best: indomitable and all- embracing, they are able to bring people together and heal conflicts.

I knew it before I took it, the peacemaker ...

[deridan]

Yours Exo, is a strange one. Typically I've seen them say, that if you one number, you typically operate sometimes on the neighbouring numbers.

I've known I'm a type 4,
but this test had me even on 5 (acting too evenly from 4 & 6..[same score]..)

4:.."feel disdainful and exempt from ordinary ways of living"
& a 6 description I liked:.."they foresee problems and foster cooperation"

I AM TALKING IN GENERAL TERMS PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS PERSONAL (everybody is unique):

~if I want to be 100% truthful & honest to myself, it conflicts with others if they are not able to be open & honest to others just for the sake to "fit in" to show how loyal they to others are! For multiple possible reasons, afraid of rejection, exclusion, "breaking the peace" (...remember MLK speech? about being silent? & silence? http://youtu.be/0k5dptjc3LY ), playing nice is sometimes worse than allowing yourself to be heard ... not because you like to " judge or stir or shout or being "rude" etc. no, because you give a damn you care enough to share your TRUE feelings/thoughts/concerns! By doing so you allow possible misinterpretations, misunderstandings to be cleared to be corrected IF it is the case. If you do not do this for let say half a year to "preserve the peace" is a FAKE PACE ... why? Because there is (metaphorical speaking) a war inside your head, almost to explode! People who "sacrifice" themselves for the "greater good" to serve the peace and claiming to be a "better" diplomat & in "balance" is just the surface what we see. Often they are perceived as "social & loyal" meanwhile they could feel/think totally different as they allow themselves to be seen. THIS IS WHY WE HAVE A SYSTEM BASED UPON CONFORMISM! To be be a conformist is a "career move" a "tactical political correctness". I urge everyone to study this: http://goo.gl/3rEaI (not the content of that TED video, but the mechanism (human template) of self imposed limitations & self-denial to "serve others".

I can talk for hours non stop about the deeper meanings why certain people do what they do without claiming to "know better" but to comprehend & better understand (out of compassion) why people are trapped in certain belief-systems just "feel good" not "hurting" other feelings ... because they are so aware how they feel when it is done to them ... the so called "empathy" card in psychology. Empathy may be a good excuse NOT to be "rude" (assumption) NOT to be "blunt" (assumption") to others. What if those assumptions are based upon your own incompetence to deal with new confrontational insights, unable to cope (transform) what is happening in the now. The now now. (not yesterday not tomorrow, now now). Because some people do not give themselves space & time to exercise to live in the now 100% in purity of heart with no filters (maybe afraid what will come/show up). As if you are not allowed to have any real emotions. The robotizing of a society is the mechanisms of people that want to "fit in" and asking others to copy that behavior for the sake of "peace" (meanwhile it a total fake peace).


'Normal' is not normal 20 years ago, and is not normal 20 years in the future. Most 'normals' want to fit in the program, 'to belong', afraid to commit the 'crime' to be different. Be proud that you can exceed the mad programmed world! (...) So should you not be more worried about, if you're being called 'sane' by an insane world?

cheers,
John Kuhles

What with all the spying and mind-control theories (Realities) going on I steer clear of any online inner-me knowledge sampling sites. Apart from Avalon where I choose to show my inner self and hope's.

In the early 1990‘s, my sister attended a workshop with Don Richard Riso and Richard Rohr, and had extra copies of the 144 questionnaire test. The first one I took was after a life altering experience. I retook it three years later with the same result: 5 with a 4 wing.

At the time it was a life-saving tool. It's helped me understand strengthen and weakness. I also notice the natural affinity to 7 & 8. Five's goal is to move towards 8, and when in destructive mode, 5 drop into 7 mind-sets and behaviors.

I’ve read several books on the Enneagram. My two favorite ones are:

• “Personality Types: Using the Enneagram for Self-Discovery,” by Don Richard Riso
• “Discovering the Enneagram: An Ancient Tool for a New Spiritual Tool for a New Spiritual Journey,” by: Richard Rohr and Andreas Ebert
