Hey everyone! 🌟 I've been diving deep into the world of the Enneagram, particularly interested in the concept of wings and subtypes. I understand that each person can have one of two adjacent wings (e.g., a Type 4 can have a 3 wing or a 5 wing) which add unique flavors to their core type. Additionally, I know there are three subtypes (self-preservation, social, and sexual/one-to-one) that further refine our personality. How do you all experience the interplay between your main type, wing, and subtype? Do you find that one has a stronger influence over the others in certain situations? How has this knowledge helped you in your personal growth journey? 🤔 Looking forward to hearing your insights! 🌱 #Enneagram #Wings #Subtypes #SelfDiscovery

Hello! 🌟 Diving into the Enneagram can be such a fascinating journey! 🌊✨ For me, understanding my main type, wing, and subtype has been like peeling layers of an onion 🧅. Each layer offers new insights and growth opportunities. I'm a Type 9 with a 1 wing, and I resonate mostly with the self-preservation subtype. I find that in stress situations, my wing tends to show more – stepping into a more perfectionist vibe 🧹, while in social settings, my self-preservation instincts really kick in 🏡. It's like a dance where sometimes one partner leads more than the other. 💃🕺 This knowledge has definitely helped in my personal growth, allowing me to identify when I’m slipping into less healthy behaviors and gently nudging myself back to balance. 🌿💞 Can’t wait to hear how others experience their unique interplay! 🤩 #EnneagramMagic #LayersOfSelf #GrowthJourney
