http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/To take the free sampler test, click on the image on the front page in the center where the text says "Discover your type". Then, within the first paragraph of the page it says "free sample test", underlined in orange. Click it, and read the directions. I found the test to be accurate, however I have yet to order the book version. I'm simply curious to see what other's scores are. I scored a tie between 1 and 4 - either traits tend to come out depending on my surrounding environment. Put terribly, terribly simply, I express 1 traits when I'm in a serious environment, and those of 4 when in a lax environment. So... What's your score? Do you feel that it's accurate? Do you like personality tests? Is the moon made of cheese? (there's a few other tests I'd like to post, but I can't find the links to them sad )

I got a type 2 - The Helper. Thisis what they said to me:
The Caring, Interpersonal Type: Generous, Demonstrative, People-Pleasing, and Possessive Basic Fear: Of being unwanted, unworthy of being loved Basic Desire: To feel loved Enneagram Two with a One-Wing: "Servant" Enneagram Two with a Three-Wing: "The Host/Hostess"
I'd say that's pretty accurate, lol xd

I'm type two (I got eight dots there.. >.>), which describes me pretty well. 3nodding 100%, really... sweatdrop

Type Two The Helper The caring, interpersonal type. Twos are empathetic, sincere, and warm-hearted. They are friendly, generous, and self-sacrificing, but can also be sentimental, flattering, and people-pleasing. They are well-meaning and driven to be close to others, but can slip into doing things for others in order to be needed. They typically have problems with possessiveness and with acknowledging their own needs. At their Best: unselfish and altruistic, they have unconditional love for others.
The Meaning of the Arrows
When moving in their Direction of Disintegration (stress), needy Twos suddenly become aggressive and dominating at Eight. However, when moving in their Direction of Integration (growth), prideful, self-deceptive Twos become more self-nurturing and emotionally aware, like healthy Fours.

Im type 4 and 9 i didnt know those could mix :-X
But describes me pretty well i got 6 in each.
Type 4 describes me 90%
Level 4: Take an artistic, romantic orientation to life, creating a beautiful, aesthetic environment to cultivate and prolong personal feelings. Heighten reality through fantasy, passionate feelings, and the imagination.
Level 9: Despairing, feel hopeless and become self-destructive, possibly abusing alcohol or drugs to escape. In the extreme: emotional breakdown or suicide is likely. Generally corresponds to the Avoidant, Depressive, and Narcissistic personality disorders
First line true. I occansianly have emotional breakdowns but gotten better biggrin So much happier now WEEEEEEE!
EDIT: Yes the moon is made of cheese i just dont understand why we dont eat it yet >.<

I got Type Nine
The Peacemaker The easy-going, self-effacing type. Nines are accepting, trusting, and stable. They are usually creative, optimistic, and supportive, but can also be too willing to go along with others to keep the peace. They want everything to go smoothly and be without conflict, but they can also tend to be complacent, simplifying problems and minimizing anything upsetting. They typically have problems with inertia and stubbornness. At their Best: indomitable and all-embracing, they are able to bring people together and heal conflicts.
I think that's pretty much accurate. I got 7 dots in this one. I also got 6 dots in Type 2 if that counts for anything because that one is pretty accurate for me as well.

wow, mine are both very accurate. I got 7, The enthusist and 9 The peace maker. Its pretty close, even some of the things it said in the 'unhealthy' levels has happened to me when I'm very depressed or stressed out.
Type Seven The Enthusiast The busy, productive type. Sevens are extroverted, optimistic, versatile, and spontaneous. Playful, high-spirited, and practical, they can also misapply their many talents, becoming over-extended, scattered, and undisciplined. They constantly seek new and exciting experiences, but can become distracted and exhausted by staying on the go. They typically have problems with impatience and impulsiveness. At their Best: they focus their talents on worthwhile goals, becoming appreciative, joyous, and satisfied.
Type Nine The Peacemaker The easy-going, self-effacing type. Nines are accepting, trusting, and stable. They are usually creative, optimistic, and supportive, but can also be too willing to go along with others to keep the peace. They want everything to go smoothly and be without conflict, but they can also tend to be complacent, simplifying problems and minimizing anything upsetting.

Type Six The Loyalist The committed, security-oriented type. Sixes are reliable, hard-working, responsible, and trustworthy. Excellent "troubleshooters," they foresee problems and foster cooperation, but can also become defensive, evasive, and anxious—running on stress while complaining about it. They can be cautious and indecisive, but also reactive, defiant and rebellious. They typically have problems with self-doubt and suspicion. At their Best: internally stable and self-reliant, courageously championing themselves and others.
This sums me up WAY too much xd Of course, I now expect a response from one of my friends saying "YOU AREN'T TRUSTWORTHY OR RELIANT!" blaugh

This sums me up WAY too much xd Of course, I now expect a response from one of my friends saying "YOU AREN'T TRUSTWORTHY OR RELIANT!" blaugh Sorry, no such luck, that's you down to the ground, especially the "They typically have problems with self-doubt and suspicion." and "running on stress while complaining about it." This is what I got Type Four The Individualist The introspective, romantic type. Fours are self-aware, sensitive, and reserved. They are emotionally honest, creative, and personal, but can also be moody and self-conscious. Withholding themselves from others due to feeling vulnerable and defective, they can also feel disdainful and exempt from ordinary ways of living. They typically have problems with melancholy, self-indulgence, and self-pity. At their Best: inspired and highly creative, they are able to renew themselves and transform their experiences. Yeah that's me, as much as I hate to admit it. I also got an equal Score for Type 5 (although it said I was a type 4) Type Five The Investigator The perceptive, cerebral type. Fives are alert, insightful, and curious. They are able to concentrate and focus on developing complex ideas and skills. Independent, innovative, and inventive, they can also become preoccupied with their thoughts and imaginary constructs. They become detached, yet high-strung and intense. They typically have problems with eccentricity, nihilism, and isolation. At their Best: visionary pioneers, often ahead of their time, and able to see the world in an entirely new way. That's me too, especially the "they can also become preoccupied with their thoughts and imaginary constructs." This post is getting too long. Adieu!

I got 6 dots for 3 and 5 each. And it's freaky, they totally describe me! With 3 I'm competive, concerned with my image, and ambicious... With 5 I'm isolated and innoative. I'm not very social. I always put it down to the fact that I was about the only person who was mixed-blood, but... And then I got 5 dots each for 1, 7 and 8.
Three The Success-Oriented, Pragmatic Type: Adaptable, Excelling, Driven, and Image-Conscious Basic Fear: Of being worthless Basic Desire: To feel valuable and worthwhile Enneagram Three with a Two-Wing: "The Charmer" Enneagram Three with a Four-Wing: "The Professional" Probably a 4 wing, I got a 1 in two, not a very friendly aspect. :/
Five The Intense, Cerebral Type: Perceptive, Innovative, Secretive, and Isolated Basic Fear: Being useless, helpless, or incapable Basic Desire: To be capable and competent Enneagram Five with a Four-Wing: "The Iconoclast" Enneagram Five with a Six-Wing: "The Problem Solver" In this case, probably a six wing.

"Type Eight The Challenger The powerful, aggressive type. Eights are self-confident, strong, and assertive. Protective, resourceful, straight-talking, and decisive, but can also be ego-centric and domineering. Eights feel they must control their environment, especially people, sometimes becoming confrontational and intimidating. Eights typically have problems with their tempers and with allowing themselves to be vulnerable. At their Best: self-mastering, they use their strength to improve others' lives, becoming heroic, magnanimous, and inspiring."
This really fits the changes I'm going through. Also, bear is one of my totem animals so I thought the other section was interesting.
"Enneagram Eight with a Seven-Wing: "The Maverick" Enneagram Eight with a Nine-Wing: "The Bear" "
Though, I don't think they meant it as the animal. LOL
