Me. I’m a 9. I struggle with personality tests because I always make it the most neutral option, but from reading the paragraphs it made it a lot easier to determine which one I was
Idk about y'all but I relate cuz I've got borderline personality disorder. One of the symptoms is a tendency to take on the personality traits of the people you surround yourself with, and to frequently experience change in personality
Most personality tests are bs, but I feel like this one has definitely helped me to understand myself and others better. That has made me more aware of how I can grow as a person and extend compassion and empathy towards others.
Did the short test and I am a type 4. Having done this before they are sooooo valuable. Not because you get to know yourself but you get to know and understand others and how they are different from yourself. Made a massive difference to my home and work life being able to better understand the other persons point of view 😁💁♂️
I agree with this completely. It’s very important and useful, not just for getting to know yourself better, but for learning how to relate to others better.
Dodie's so right, I'm a nine and I think it's the worst one. I've taken different tests and almost every time I get a different answer which made me happy at first but then I realised it's such a nine thing to do to see myself in every number 😅
I related to 9 the most when reading the paragraphs. And i think it's pretty dang cool. I feel like a triple agent being able to relate and spy on all the others. I could do so much evil with this, but the world is lucky enough for me to use my wisdom for peace and harmony. I am basically the avatar, master of all nine (8?) elements. Seems like i am in a very humble mood right now
5 wing 4! I'm also an INTP, Ravenclaw, and a Pisces 😂. I personally find the Enneagram test to be the most productive of all the personality tests that I've tried. For example, the bit in the 5 paragraph where it talks about enjoying reliving something more than the actual experience. That's extremely true for me and so I am making an effort to be more in the moment instead of constantly analyzing things. I often need time to come to a conclusion about how I feel about something. And then it's always based on logic. So if someone asks me what I thought of a movie I have the tendency to talk about the historically accurate costuming and the cinematography and the sound score, etc, before I even mention whether or not I liked it! So yes, no personality test is perfect but they can be fun and insightful nonetheless.
i'm a 6, (I think with equal wings) and while I've been really back and forth about my MBTI, I really relate to my enneagram (not that I know much abt it). I think its becos each enneagram results automatically gives you 4 types - wings & growth/stress (instead of just boxing u into one) and describes changing moods of humans better so you feel less "thats not me" and more "yes omg I relate"
i hate when people call the enneagram nonsense when they just take a test. it’s not supposed to be a scientifically accurate tool used to be measure the population, it’s supposed to be a spiritual tool for personal and relational growth. you can’t just take the test, you have to delve deep into it for it to actually be useful. but when you do, it is extremely powerful and can be life changing.
it took me FOREVER to find out i was a 9, which i think is common for a lot of nines because we see ourselves in everyone. once i listened to other nines talk about it, though, it instantly clicked into place in my brain
i did a free version of the test a few years ago and i believe i'm a 9?? i've heard that if you feel like you can relate to every single enneagram type in some way then you're a 9 and that's pretty accurate for me hahah. i remember i watched lucy moon's video about her being a type 9 too and i fully related to everything in it. might invest into doing the proper test though so i can actually find out what type i am.
your wing is how you manage/ express your core. you could also look into instinctual variants as that explains the variations with in a type. and even more you could look into to tritype. Im a 5w4 and a nerd of the enneagram
OMG the enneagram is by far my favorite of all personality tests (until i find another one, lol) I'm a 1, and I become a 4 when under stress (which I believe is why I relate so much to dodie's emotional music and content) and a 7 when I become excited! this is so cool, I now feel like I have a connection to both of you lol! also, if you ever felt like reading into it more, there are some great books that delve into the development of certain types through nature and nurture, beginning at birth! its so cool. And everyone should check out sleeping at last! even if you don't care at all about his enneagram series, which is amazing, all of his other songs and covers are so beautiful and help me calm down so much!
I’m a five. I don’t think many people really understand the five or realize how someone’s deepest desire could be to observe and gather information. Simply put: I feel as though I’m looking out at the world from the vantage point of being backed up into a cave, and I need to figure out how to face the dangers outside before I can leave the cave feeling less vulnerable and more prepared. I see all the people outside my cave just living their lives seemingly without fear and I wonder if I could ever have the courage to do that. So what I desire is to possess the tools I need in order to avoid being overwhelmed and tossed about by the world. Detachment is my temporary solution. PS: I love learning youtubers’ enneagram types. God bless Tessa Violet for making the enneagram a thing in this community.
I am a 7 and I did a narrative enneagram course and it was so helpful to accept my restlessness and understand how I am always looking on the bright side of everything and this can result in me accidentally, unintentionally suppressing my emotions instead of accepting my experience.
Hi! something i love about the enneagram is that you're supposed to be able to work out which one you are without taking a test, because we all have the potential for each core need/desire - it makes it feel less personality test-y and more like something you have to explore and learn about with regard to how you perceive yourself
i absolutely get two vibes from dodie!! i’ve always related a ton to her & I’m a two too. i always say it’s about being caring to a fault, but that “fault” isn’t always obvious
Ha! You think THAT’S confusing... start looking into the tritypes! I’ve been studying this for months now and I still can’t tell if I’m a 945 or a 952. But there is no denying my 9ness. I neither hate it nor love it. It just is. It’s definitely both a blessing and a curse- but it’s who I am. Loved the video
From reading the paragraphs I'm pretty sure I'm a type 8! Love this series, it's so fun doing the tests myself and seeing you finding out your own results.
I'm a Four, but I had a hard time figuring it out because when I took tests online I got a bunch of different numbers and I just ended up being confused! But the paragraph you put up about Fours is completely accurate for me, so I'm glad I don't have to have an existential crisis about it again!
I'm a 4w5! As a hardcore enneagram convert, the tests are so painful! Tests are a starting point, and reading more about the enneagram is the only way to confirm and understand your number. Giving you multiple numbers with scores is the test's way of encouraging you to explore those numbers first. Also, 4s go to 2 in stress, so you at your worst would sound a lot like a 2. And in my experience, wings are difficult to nail down. So glad you made the video :D
The Enneagram is my favorite of all the personality tests, because it feels the most like it could be accurate. I’m a 4 too! But a 5 wing which is very accurate for me. I didn’t expect the 4, since I originally took the test years ago and got a 9.
I’m a type 9. I took the test for the first time about 5 years back and I got a 7, and was convinced of it, but I’ve grown and learned a lot about myself over the last few years and can see that I was trying to live up to some imposed idea of who I was to people more than trying to be myself. I just took it again recently and got type 9. I’m quite proud to be a 9. 😊
I'm a 9 w 1! also I trust researching the types and identifying yourself over quizzes bc they're a lot more complex than some other personality types. For the longest time I thought I was a 6 w 5 bc that's what a test said but over time I've realised I identify more towards 9 (which goes to 6 in stress) also as far as I'm aware, you can have both wings, I think generally people tend to lean to one side more than the other
I'm a nine with a one wing, which means I have a lot of opinions, and i always think I'm right, but I very rarely voice any of it for fear of confrontation.
i’m a type 2 and i’m SUCH a type 2 like i’ll catch myself doing stuff or look back on things and am like “omg my type 2 is showing” and am genuinely embarrassed ?? I find it so so interesting and also especially that dodie came out as a type 2 because the way she gives back to her audience is such a type 2 thing but idk because obviously i don’t know her personally to know so 🤷♀️ this video was so interesting though so thank you for that !
Love this. I'm a 5, wing 4. I took the test and read also the description and it is pretty accurate for myself. I love to observe and learn new things but usually from an outside perspective.
I’m a 4! I don’t think I would have ever learned I was a 4 without Suzanne Stabile! She’s my favorite enneagram teacher, and she has an awesome podcast, too: The Enneagram Journey. She is a well of wisdom!
First did the enneagram in like 2013/14 and hadn’t looked at it in ages so decided to redo it and I got exactly the same : 6. Everything was almost the same except my next highest score had switched places with my 4th highest (5 to 2) which was interesting. Loved this video, love seeing my two TH-cam favourites together 💘
Generally it's the one that makes you cringe the most, that's your type. I'm a 6(w5), so I'm loyal but consistently terrified, and I'm always learning from mistakes lol. It is also quite common to be miss-typed in the test depending on how you answer at the time and whether you're in a healthy place or not.
I’m a 5w4 & it’s been hard to accept because it’s so true (which is ironically a very 5 thing - wanting to know so much about everything around you but feeling intruded upon when someone understands how you work & feel)
I think the enneagram is the most accurate personality test that you can find on the internet (obviously not as accurate as "professional" done ones). I'm an 8 and once I found out which type I am it helped me so much to understand why I behave how I behave in some situations. I always thought I need to proof myself, don't show weakness, never back down - now I know, I can come on really strong and need to stay calm, especially during conflicts. Your wing isn't "fix", you can tend to the one or the other (I'm more a 8w7, but also have tendencies of 8w9). And no, you can't choose which type you want to be, your core fears and desires won't change just because you find another type more "attractive" (but maybe that behaviour also helps you to find out your type ^^).
I‘m SUCH a 6, I‘ve never felt so seen and understood from any other personality / horoscope / whatever type thing... I‘m such a 6 and my partner is such a 5 and it‘s eerie how much I relate to this above all other personality concepts I love it so much
4w3 here, and yeah, i absolutely hate my number, because being that type essentially means being at constant war with yourself (the need to be alone and the need to be with people, being connected with people and being special and alienated).
i’m a 5 - it’s all about wanting to be seen as capable and competent and you make up for insecurities by learning a lot so that you feel better in yourself because you’re capable kinda
Right? Haven't decided between 5 or 3 yet, but if I'm a 5 I'm definitely more into conspiracy theories and figuring out the most random things than silently observing...
I wouldn't say personality tests are complete bullshit (at least these more well-known ones, fleshed out ones). It's just that they're more like guidelines and educated guesses about you. It is possible to feel that your results don't match who you feel yourself to be at all, of course. But usually they get enough right that they help you understand yourself and give you words that help explain yourself others and relate to them better. All that said, haven't done the official test, but the unofficial ones say I am a 5, which is what my brother (who is very into enneagram) thought I would be.
The enneagram is actually more fundamental than the big 5. It is about identity through ego strategy, and is therefore about what motivates us. Certain numbers are going to be quite consistently agreeable/disagreeable but others (type 6 for example) may shift depending on context
There's definitely a quiz that lists all of the questions used for sorting your house on Pottermore and shows your percent-likeness to each house. That would be a fun extra personality test!
I really like the enneagram because it's very insightful and has really helped me understand others better. P.S. Dodie is DEFINITELY a 4w3! My sister is a 4, and it makes total sense to me. :)
I took the official test and it told me i'm a 6 but im definitely a 5 (with a 4 wing nonetheless!) tests aren't the best way to determine your type bc its based on internal motivations which don't always translate! you know you better than a test! ur a 4 dodie!
i found the enneagram through dodie so i was unsure if i was identifying as 4 cuz she had talked about how SHE was a four but when i took it out of that context... like, i am a writer at heart and my desire is to be known and to be understood and to have a REASON to be alive and a reason to write and so the more i think about it in my own context the more it makes sense i know these tests can be silly but i think ultimately if they help you feel like you know yourself better and the way you fit into the world then its okay!!
fun fact! y’all can take the test for free at eclecticenergies.com and then read up more on the enneagram institute website (which is great for looking at compatibilities and levels of development). the second one makes you pay for the test but doesn’t charge to help you learn about different types, while the first one doesn’t charge at all but doesn’t have as much info.
Weird that dodie said she was most confused by five - cause I’m a 5! I feel like it just goes along with my ravenclaw-ness and just being quiet and listening to learn
right so i think i'm a type 6? but i think that when i'm like, actually calm i'm a 9 and when i'm in high stress situations i'm a 8. that video was incredibly interesting !! and for the first time ever i actually understood what the ever loving duck was the enneagram! so thank you :))
When I did the test the person doing the talk said that a lot of women may show up as a 2, while actually being another type because a lot of it lines up with how women are supposed to be seen in society. They chose how they think they are supposed to be based on cultural conditioning, rather than necessarily what they are. (but again, it is just a test)
OKAY SO for the longest time i thought i was a 4 because i'm very dramatic and artsy etc but then my friend and i sat down and re-did the actualy proper test from the wisdom of the enneagram book (written by the people who came up w the system in the first place) and i got high results for 2, 4 , 6 and 9... i then went through individual trait checklists for all of those and 6 jumped WAAAAAY out and yeah when we read the full description for it i felt very called out. i then later looked into the wings and felt even more called out by 6w7... so yeah that's me!
Aella Lee I did a search on the website and I think this is the correct link: fbcrichmond.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/essential_enneagram_paragrah_test.pdf If not, just search ‘enneagram’ into the search bar on the church website, go into ‘Adults’, then you can find it in there. Hope this helps! x
I had to do this test after watching your video. Going into it I thought I would be a 5 (it was a somewhat close second), but I am a 1. I feel really called out after reading the description and that is 100% who I am (as much as any of these tests really let you know who you are)
It kind of bothered me that you kept saying it was all BS. I understand it's not for everyone but if you really dive deep into it it's an amazing tool to better understand your own, and others, behaviors/thoughts/fears/desires. That being said i do agree that most of the TESTS are BS... in order to truly figure out your own type you need to do the research, read multiple books on the topic from experts and do a lot of introspection. i'm a 9w1 sp/so/sx :-)
I'm a 1 wing 2 buttt I've been reading the Nagoski sisters book Burnout and it dives into the Human Giver Syndrome... And I feel like that is more so where my wing 2 is coming from and that I am actually more a wing 9
I love my sped up voice!!!?
THANKS FOR HAVING MEEEEE
HAHAH the floating numbers
WE ALLL KNOW THAT ITS BOLLOCKS lmao
@@doddleoddle the live commenting 😂
You’re welcome!!!! Pleasure having you! xx
R they carpet burns on ur knees just been nosey???
I'm unable to fill in any type of personality test because I have no idea who I am
Me. I’m a 9. I struggle with personality tests because I always make it the most neutral option, but from reading the paragraphs it made it a lot easier to determine which one I was
Idk about y'all but I relate cuz I've got borderline personality disorder. One of the symptoms is a tendency to take on the personality traits of the people you surround yourself with, and to frequently experience change in personality
After reading the paragraphs I think i'm a 7 or a 9
I like that your tops are collectively spelling out "Hump Day Buns"
(also same Dodie, i feel like such a 4 now omg)
Hannah: maybe you've just been stressed?
Dodie: *looks at the camera like she's on The Office*
“I don’t have time for another identity crisis” love her 😂
Yessss Sleeping at Last is amazing. His song for Two speaks to me so much. Love that you got to be a part of that project, Dodie.
Firstly you look amazing in orange. Secondly love this series 😍
“You can’t tell people who they are” BUT YES DODIE UR A 4
LOVED THIS. I need to do the proper test!! I am also 100% sure I’m a 9
Most personality tests are bs, but I feel like this one has definitely helped me to understand myself and others better. That has made me more aware of how I can grow as a person and extend compassion and empathy towards others.
I'm a one so I tend be be judgemental and have strong morals. Knowing that about myself has helped me to notice it and be less critical of others.
Did the short test and I am a type 4. Having done this before they are sooooo valuable. Not because you get to know yourself but you get to know and understand others and how they are different from yourself. Made a massive difference to my home and work life being able to better understand the other persons point of view 😁💁♂️
I agree with this completely. It’s very important and useful, not just for getting to know yourself better, but for learning how to relate to others better.
two of my faves in one video?? life is good 💕☀️
I'm a 4w5! A perfectly confusing mix of emotions & logic lol
I’m such a 5. Learning new things to avoid facing my problems. Oops.
Dodie's so right, I'm a nine and I think it's the worst one. I've taken different tests and almost every time I get a different answer which made me happy at first but then I realised it's such a nine thing to do to see myself in every number 😅
there is no winning
ya 9 sucks. D= haha
I related to 9 the most when reading the paragraphs. And i think it's pretty dang cool. I feel like a triple agent being able to relate and spy on all the others. I could do so much evil with this, but the world is lucky enough for me to use my wisdom for peace and harmony. I am basically the avatar, master of all nine (8?) elements.
Seems like i am in a very humble mood right now
AS A NINE I FEEL SO CALLED OUT BY THIS
Yeah, I am a 9, too and not proud of it. As a typical 9 woman I was sure I am a 2 but if I am really honest I am just a 9 😅
“I do not have time for another identity crisis”
Same dodes, same

9 wing 1. INFP, Hufflepuff, Leo.

it took me FOREVER to find out i was a 9, which i think is common for a lot of nines because we see ourselves in everyone. once i listened to other nines talk about it, though, it instantly clicked into place in my brain
I saw the description for Type 4, and I just sat back in my chair and said, "Yup."
i did a free version of the test a few years ago and i believe i'm a 9?? i've heard that if you feel like you can relate to every single enneagram type in some way then you're a 9 and that's pretty accurate for me hahah. i remember i watched lucy moon's video about her being a type 9 too and i fully related to everything in it. might invest into doing the proper test though so i can actually find out what type i am.

Very well put. As a 5, this resonates with me. Information feels comforting.
I'm a type 5 with a wing 4. Seemed accurate ;)
I love seeing Dodie and Hannah together!
Always so excited to see you both in the same video 🖤
Keep going beautiful humans!
I am a 7 and I did a narrative enneagram course and it was so helpful to accept my restlessness and understand how I am always looking on the bright side of everything and this can result in me accidentally, unintentionally suppressing my emotions instead of accepting my experience.

I feel dodie's struggle of being caught between a 2 and a 4. it's a big MOOD
i absolutely get two vibes from dodie!! i’ve always related a ton to her & I’m a two too. i always say it’s about being caring to a fault, but that “fault” isn’t always obvious
According to the shorter test, I'm a 2w3, but I still think I'm a 4. Maybe that's a thing for 2's, that they always want to be 4's....
Ha! You think THAT’S confusing... start looking into the tritypes! I’ve been studying this for months now and I still can’t tell if I’m a 945 or a 952.
But there is no denying my 9ness. I neither hate it nor love it. It just is. It’s definitely both a blessing and a curse- but it’s who I am.
Loved the video
I'm a 4 too, Dodie! And it took me a while to decide between that and 2, so I think they're very much intertwined.
This is the only personality test I’ve ever truly related to. Type 1w2. The reformer/perfectionist, but without being emotionally constrained
From reading the paragraphs I'm pretty sure I'm a type 8! Love this series, it's so fun doing the tests myself and seeing you finding out your own results.
The level of cynicism mixed with fascination in this video is absolutely me
this is so calming to watch :,)
I'm a 9 and I don't know wether I hate it or not because it describes me perfectly ✌️ PS, I LOVE YOU BOTH AHHHH 💕💕💕💕
Legit the best combo for a video :o
Dodie is the most 4 4 i’ve ever seen
I'm a Four, but I had a hard time figuring it out because when I took tests online I got a bunch of different numbers and I just ended up being confused! But the paragraph you put up about Fours is completely accurate for me, so I'm glad I don't have to have an existential crisis about it again!
My entire personality type right now is love for this Collab and my two favourite gals chilling together I am so overwhelmed
yayyyy finally you two together in a video again
I'm a 4w5!

Oh my god! My mind is blown, I've listened to those Sleeping at Last songs and I never knew that they were written about the enneagram types!
I'm a nine with a one wing, which means I have a lot of opinions, and i always think I'm right, but I very rarely voice any of it for fear of confrontation.
Ok that he fact that just ‘buns’ is poking out of dodie’s dress makes me so happy
i’m a type 2 and i’m SUCH a type 2 like i’ll catch myself doing stuff or look back on things and am like “omg my type 2 is showing” and am genuinely embarrassed ??

And no, you can't choose which type you want to be, your core fears and desires won't change just because you find another type more "attractive" (but maybe that behaviour also helps you to find out your type ^^).
Never took this test so HAD to after watching this video. I’m a type 2 wing 3. Scared me how accurate the description related to me!!!
Love y'all's collab, thanks v. much! I am pretty sure I'm 4w3
I‘m SUCH a 6, I‘ve never felt so seen and understood from any other personality / horoscope / whatever type thing... I‘m such a 6 and my partner is such a 5 and it‘s eerie how much I relate to this above all other personality concepts I love it so much
Hannah AND Dodie omg I love you guys😭 I know Dodie loves it
4w3 here, and yeah, i absolutely hate my number, because being that type essentially means being at constant war with yourself (the need to be alone and the need to be with people, being connected with people and being special and alienated).
That's interesting because I'm also a 4w3 and I love being a four.
So I'm an Enneagram Three, and i finally listened to the Sleeping at Last song and I cried for like 10 minutes. Wow, emotions
I had never heard of the enneagram before but took the test after this video. I'm type 3 wing 2, which is scarily accurate!
Love the editing!
i’m a 5 - it’s all about wanting to be seen as capable and competent and you make up for insecurities by learning a lot so that you feel better in yourself because you’re capable kinda
I love the Sleeping At Last songs so much
I'm a type 5 with a 6 wing. In the list of scores, 8, 4, and 3 were omitted as they were my lowest ones.
we did these in school and I noticed that 4s are often enthusiastic and proud of being a 4 (I am guilty of that too) so I'm sure dodie is one of us!!!
Discovery Insights personality test is the only none BS one I’ve found... highly recommend it! Crazy accurate
i always guessed dodie was a 4
also im a 5 and literally no one describes it right😂
Right? Haven't decided between 5 or 3 yet, but if I'm a 5 I'm definitely more into conspiracy theories and figuring out the most random things than silently observing...
What the frick YES for this collab!!
I wouldn't say personality tests are complete bullshit (at least these more well-known ones, fleshed out ones). It's just that they're more like guidelines and educated guesses about you. It is possible to feel that your results don't match who you feel yourself to be at all, of course. But usually they get enough right that they help you understand yourself and give you words that help explain yourself others and relate to them better.
All that said, haven't done the official test, but the unofficial ones say I am a 5, which is what my brother (who is very into enneagram) thought I would be.
Yes yes yes THE BEST COLLAB EVERRRRR ❤️❤️
The enneagram is actually more fundamental than the big 5. It is about identity through ego strategy, and is therefore about what motivates us. Certain numbers are going to be quite consistently agreeable/disagreeable but others (type 6 for example) may shift depending on context
super interesting video, and thank you so much for the subtitles! i really appreciate them :)
There's definitely a quiz that lists all of the questions used for sorting your house on Pottermore and shows your percent-likeness to each house. That would be a fun extra personality test!
Off to do the test right now!
I really like the enneagram because it's very insightful and has really helped me understand others better.
P.S.
Dodie is DEFINITELY a 4w3! My sister is a 4, and it makes total sense to me. :)
I took the official test and it told me i'm a 6 but im definitely a 5 (with a 4 wing nonetheless!) tests aren't the best way to determine your type bc its based on internal motivations which don't always translate! you know you better than a test! ur a 4 dodie!
i found the enneagram through dodie so i was unsure if i was identifying as 4 cuz she had talked about how SHE was a four but when i took it out of that context... like, i am a writer at heart and my desire is to be known and to be understood and to have a REASON to be alive and a reason to write and so the more i think about it in my own context the more it makes sense
i know these tests can be silly but i think ultimately if they help you feel like you know yourself better and the way you fit into the world then its okay!!
fun fact! y’all can take the test for free at eclecticenergies.com and then read up more on the enneagram institute website (which is great for looking at compatibilities and levels of development). the second one makes you pay for the test but doesn’t charge to help you learn about different types, while the first one doesn’t charge at all but doesn’t have as much info.
Weird that dodie said she was most confused by five - cause I’m a 5! I feel like it just goes along with my ravenclaw-ness and just being quiet and listening to learn
OMG. I didn't believe it when you talked about the ah-ha moment but I read the description of 1 and just OMG SO ME
right so i think i'm a type 6? but i think that when i'm like, actually calm i'm a 9 and when i'm in high stress situations i'm a 8. that video was incredibly interesting !! and for the first time ever i actually understood what the ever loving duck was the enneagram! so thank you :))
omg i never knew dodie helped sleeping at last!! love that dude
I’m a 5! Also my sister is a psychologist and she believes this test is the best one to use when trying to figure out yourself.
When I did the test the person doing the talk said that a lot of women may show up as a 2, while actually being another type because a lot of it lines up with how women are supposed to be seen in society. They chose how they think they are supposed to be based on cultural conditioning, rather than necessarily what they are. (but again, it is just a test)
OKAY SO for the longest time i thought i was a 4 because i'm very dramatic and artsy etc but then my friend and i sat down and re-did the actualy proper test from the wisdom of the enneagram book (written by the people who came up w the system in the first place) and i got high results for 2, 4 , 6 and 9... i then went through individual trait checklists for all of those and 6 jumped WAAAAAY out and yeah when we read the full description for it i felt very called out. i then later looked into the wings and felt even more called out by 6w7... so yeah that's me!
Question Hannah: why is the link in the description for describing the types a link to a church instead?
Aella Lee I did a search on the website and I think this is the correct link: fbcrichmond.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/essential_enneagram_paragrah_test.pdf If not, just search ‘enneagram’ into the search bar on the church website, go into ‘Adults’, then you can find it in there. Hope this helps! x
I had to do this test after watching your video. Going into it I thought I would be a 5 (it was a somewhat close second), but I am a 1. I feel really called out after reading the description and that is 100% who I am (as much as any of these tests really let you know who you are)
It kind of bothered me that you kept saying it was all BS. I understand it's not for everyone but if you really dive deep into it it's an amazing tool to better understand your own, and others, behaviors/thoughts/fears/desires. That being said i do agree that most of the TESTS are BS... in order to truly figure out your own type you need to do the research, read multiple books on the topic from experts and do a lot of introspection.
i'm a 9w1 sp/so/sx :-)
omg we're literally the same exact type hahahahah
Reading the paragraphs knowing about the types is so bad looool it makes it so easy to be like 'yep, nope nope nope'
Im a type 2! I love Sleeping at Last, when I first heard the Two song I cried it was such an experience!
julz yes his song is sooo good, a dear friend of mine sent it to me and I spent a good 15 minutes silently crying in my room... so good!
@@kylar.8859 agreed! I love all the enneagram songs but as a type two my god that song hits me... especially with synesthesia!
I'm a 1 wing 2 buttt I've been reading the Nagoski sisters book Burnout and it dives into the Human Giver Syndrome... And I feel like that is more so where my wing 2 is coming from and that I am actually more a wing 9
Definitely a 5. I do love trying to know as much as possible about almost anything.
