Instead of focusing on the particular Enneagram types I want to talk a little about the Lower Level of all of numbers.

Like many terms of phrases that have been used with the Enneagram for decades, recently we have begun to expand on the original ones - not change their core meaning but dig a little deeper into the words themselves. So what if I restated the original childhood message for type 5s in this way…. “It’s not ok to let your guard down because you won’t b…

Today, let’s look at the childhood message for type 4: It almost seems impossible to think of a child hearing these words and the truth is….these exact words were most likely, never spoken but somehow the message was received that “It’s not ok to be too functional or too happy.” Take just a few seconds to FEEL that deep inside. Imagine how that fee…

Who doesn’t love being applauded for a job well done? And which of us as parents or adults don’t love applauding the young - sometimes literally clapping after a performance? That’s natural and it’s necessary to encourage achievement. This is part of life…competition, endurance, challenge and success. But when the trophy doesn’t come, when the grad…

What was the childhood message for enneagram type 2s? It was……“It’s not ok to have your own needs.” How did that message get embedded in the unconscious mind of a young type 2? Every childhood is different and every child interprets their experiences differently. Each of us has a filter through which we understand the world around us. But young typ…

You have to know where you're going.” I have been PASSIONATE about the Enneagram for many, many years. 12 to b…

The Passion for For type 1s is ANGER. Type 1s are often called the Reformers and hold themselves to very high standards which is a good quality, right? SO…the deceitfulness of the passions is that it seems GOOD to be conscientious and ethical, with a strong sense of right and wrong. And being ANGRY goes against what seems to be GOOD. So they resist…

As we continue to look at the deceitfulness of good through the enneagram perspectives we see how the passion, which comes from the latin word 'passeo' which means 'to suffer', of each type is tied to an attempt to resist the suffering by doing good. But, in the words of Carl Jung, what you resist not only persists, but will grow in size. When we r…

"What we resist not only persists, but will grow in size." ~ Carl Jung There are a couple of different words for what each Enneagram type resists - but typically they are referred to as The Passion or The Vice.
