Enneagram

Post Reply New Topic

Have any of you taken the enneagram test? There is a simple, online test that can help determine what your number is at http://similarminds.com/personality_tests.html. I'm just curious to see what you guys all are. I'm a 5 with a slight 4 wing, but that is up for dispute.

More information about the Enneagram types can be found at:

Wow, that's pretty accurate stuff right there. Although Calmness tied, why did Hypersensitivity get picked as my main type?

I took the longest one (not Jung, the one beofre it), and now it makes a lot more sense.
