enneagram 8

Hi All! It's Toxxic1Kitty (otherwise known by my avatar name as the DarkIceQueen666 mwuahahahaha) and I am particularly interested in clearing up the differences between 4 and 8. When I take the enneagram test, I tie as both numbers. Is this possible? I'm not an all out believer in these...

I have taken so many tests it's ridiculous.I often type as a 1, 5, 6, 8, or 9. There's no major consistency to where I can really narrow it down to two numbers in the same group/triad. Any help is greatly appreciated. :proud: 1. What drives you in life? What do you look for? I like learning a...

i just realised this: lust is always referred to with a very powerfully negative connotation, right? but i've always had an appreciation for certain kinds of lust - for instance, the first time i came across the phrase 'lust for life' it quite thrilled me. in terms of behaviour, i love it when...

hey. i've been struggling to come to grips with this ever since my divorce (about 3 years ago now). if someone can help, i'd be SO grateful. ever since the divorce, each time i go out with more than one other person i feel really left out. i feel really isolated and lonely the more the number...

Do you think we can excel at both? It's common for 8s to have high IQ but what about EQ? So is IQ + EQ = constant OR IQ + EQ =/= constant Do you think 8s can develop real high emotional awareness? Directness and control seems for me to be just opposite.

hey. i've been battling with this for the last five years, so any other INTJ 8s... i'd greatly appreciate your inputs. i've had experiences which have made me grow up faster than my peers. while i'm fond of my close friends - love them in a way, i still feel incredibly isolated and lonely...

Myers-Briggs and Enneagram Interaction E - I S - N T - F J - P There is little talk on how the enneagram interacts with ones Myers-Briggs (MBTI) configuration. I've had the fortune to read at least one book discussing this, Pat Wymans Three Keys to Self-Undestanding. However, the...

I have read that the heart traid is driven by shame, the head triad driven by fear, and the gut triad driven by anger. So, eights, what sorts of things fuel your anger the most?

I've taken the Myers-Briggs test too many times to remember, and my results are continuously fluctuating. I've been an ESTP, INTJ, and ISTJ, none of which fit my temperment. For ESTP, while I am a outgoing, fast-paced, and straight-shooting to the point of being blunt, I don't get bored by...

Okay, so I read up on the whole Enneagram Type 8 thing. I'm also INTJ. Apparently, we are the most lethal of all enneagram types and the most dangerous criminal Personality Type... if we are considered "Unhealthy". Luckily, I fall on level 6 of 9, 9 being the worst. I am Average, but close to...

EDIT: Okay, so I was confused due to some UNRELIABLE source. Ahem. Anywho, still trying to figure out my wing, but I'm definately an 8, level 6... which is the first step to average. I'm almost unhealthy. So that explains all that 5 crap. Okay, so I just retook the Enneagram Test and I ended up...
