The Enneagram is a personality typing system that consists of nine different types. Everyone is considered to be one single type, although one can have traits belonging to other ones. While it's uncertain whether this type is genetically determined, many believe it is already in place at birth.
The nine types (or "enneatypes", "ennea" means "nine") are universally identified by the numbers 1 to 9. These numbers have a standard way of being placed around the Enneagram symbol.
They are:
1- The Reformer
2- The Helper
3- The Achiever
4- The Individualist
5- The Investigator
6- The Loyalist
7- The Enthusiast
8- The Challenger
9- The Peace Maker
The test is about 14 pages long which quite possibly might get me flamed (Be Gentle) for suggesting. But since I mostly lurk around here, I figured it would be an interesting way to break out of my norm and show people a little about myself while hoping to learn a little about them. That Said! My results!!
I am a Type 1w2.
Reformer with a dash of Helper. 2 and 5 were tied in score but that is explained on the site.
It certainly explains why I lurk so damn much. I tend to start writing replies and unnecessarily re-read everything repeatedly, always resulting in my not being happy with the way I'm getting myself across and ultimately ending up in me deleting it and seeming as I don't have an opinion at all. Over the internet I tend to be quiet and shy but in actuality I'm an quite opinionated and talkative once I get to know people. And I'm hoping for this to be the start of some change and I'll reflect that by being more active here and elsewhere <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... nceman.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> .
