Hey everyone! Just joined this amazing community and have a quick question about Enneagram tests. 🌟 I've taken a few different ones online and I'm getting varied results each time. Sometimes I'm a Type 2, other times a Type 6. 😅 1. Are there any highly recommended, reliable tests you trust? 2. How much should I rely on these tests versus self-reflection and reading about each type? 3. Is it normal to get different results and how do you navigate this? Would really appreciate your insights on how to get the most accurate understanding of my type. Thanks in advance! 🙏🎉

Hiya! Welcome to the community! 🌟 So happy to have you here. Let's dive into your questions: 1. **Reliable Tests**: While no test is perfect, tests like the RHETI by the Enneagram Institute and the Truity Enneagram Test have good reputations. But remember, they’re just starting points! 🌐 2. **Tests vs. Self-Reflection**: Tests can give you a hint, but self-reflection and reading about each type are crucial. Consider journaling your thoughts and feelings, and see which type resonates most deeply with your personal experiences. 📚📝 3. **Different Results**: Totally normal! Our personalities are complex, and sometimes the tests pick up on different aspects of us. Think of the Enneagram as a journey—keep exploring until you find the type that fits you best. 🕵️‍♀️✨ Finding your type is a blend of guidance from tests and deep personal insight. Take your time and enjoy the discovery process! 🌈💖 Feel free to ask more questions as you go along! 🎉

Hello! Welcome to the community! 🌟🤗 So glad you joined us. 1. 📊 For reliable tests, many people recommend the Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator (RHETI) or the Enneagram Institute's official test. These tend to be more thorough and accurate. 2. 📚 While tests can give you a good starting point, self-reflection and reading about the types is super important for deeper understanding. Sometimes your type isn't immediately obvious through a test alone. 3. 🤔 It's totally normal to get different results! Tests can vary based on your current state of mind or the way questions are phrased. The best approach is to use test results as a guide but pay attention to what truly resonates with you on a deeper level. At the end of the day, the Enneagram is a journey of self-discovery, so take your time with it. 🌱✨ You'll find your true type as you explore and reflect. Happy Enneagram journey! 🚀🔍 Thanks for reaching out and feel free to ask more questions! 🙏😊

Hey! Welcome to the community! 🌸😊 So glad you brought this up. It's totally normal to get varied results from different Enneagram tests. Here are some thoughts: 1. For reliable tests, many find the RHETI (Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator) to be quite thorough. Truity's Enneagram test is also popular and user-friendly. But remember, no test is perfect! 📝✨ 2. While tests can give you a good starting point, self-reflection and reading about each type are essential. Dive into Enneagram books, join discussions here, and observe your motivations and fears. 🔍📚 3. Getting different results happens! It might mean you're close to those types or you're in a phase of growth/change. Try comparing your results with type descriptions and see which one resonates deeply with you. Trust your intuition. 💖🌱 Hope this helps and happy exploring! 🙌✨ #EnneagramJourney #SelfDiscovery

Hey there, welcome to the community! 🎉 1. For reliable Enneagram tests, you might want to try the RHETI (Riso-Hudson Enneagram Type Indicator) which is pretty popular. Truity also offers a decent one. 🔍 But remember, no test is infallible! 2. Tests can be a helpful starting point, but self-reflection and reading about each type tend to give the most accurate results. 📚 Spend some time exploring the core motivations and fears of each type to see which resonates most deeply with you. 3. It's totally normal to get different results! Enneagram is nuanced and can be influenced by your current state of mind or how you interpret the questions. 🌀 Navigating this involves looking for consistent patterns in your behaviors and motivations. Some people even find they relate to multiple types before settling on their core type and wing. Take your time and enjoy the journey of self-discovery! Thanks for sharing and feel free to ask more questions. We're here to help! 🙏😊

Greetings! Welcome to the community! 🎉 1. While there are many tests out there, the RHETI from The Enneagram Institute and the Typology Central's forum test can be quite reliable. However, no test is 100% accurate! 2. Tests can give you a good starting point, but self-reflection, reading about each type, and even discussing with others can provide deeper insights. 📚✨ 3. Yes, it's totally normal to get different results! The Enneagram is quite nuanced, so our behaviors and stress levels can influence outcomes. Try focusing on motivations behind your actions rather than just behaviors to identify your core type. It's all part of the journey, so enjoy discovering more about yourself! 🌟🔍 Feel free to reach out with more questions – we’re all in this together! 🤗
