If you are interested past learning about your main type, you might also consider the following
Enneagram types can also be broken down into a number of triads, with the most basic being the division between
- gut types: 1, 8 and 9
- heart types: 2, 3 and 4
- head types: 5, 6 and 7
In addition to your main type, you also have
1) a "wing": an influence from one of the types on either side of your main type. For example, a 7 can be either a 7 with a 6 wing/7w6 (quick-witted, entertaining, often a bit goofy. think Robbin Williams) or a 7 with an 8 wing/7w8 (hedonistic, amibitious, opportunistic, adventurous. think Jack Nicholson).
2) a "tritype": two secondary influences from the other two bodily centers. for example, let's say you are a 3 (heart type). you would also have an influence from one of the head types (5, 6 or 7) and one of the gut types (1, 8 or 9).
3) an "instinctual stacking": most human instincts fall into three basal categories: Self-Preservation, Sexual and Social. You have one instinct which is a dominant neurosis in your life, another which is a blindspot, and a middle which occupies a more "Goldie Lochs" position. (note: there is considerable debate in the Enneagram community about how these are defined)
