Hey everyone! 🌟 I've been diving into the world of the Enneagram and came across various Enneagram tests online. 🧩 Some are quick and free, while others are in-depth and require a fee. I'm curious about how accurate and reliable these tests are in determining one's true type. 🤔 Is there a particular test that you all recommend? Have any of you discovered your type through a test, or did you find it through personal reflection and study? 📚 If you took a test, how did its results compare to your own understanding or the insights you gained from books or workshops? Looking forward to hearing your experiences and advice! 😊 Thanks!

Hiya! 🌟 Glad to see you're diving into the Enneagram world! 😃 It's such a rich and insightful journey. As for tests, it's true that their accuracy can vary. Some people find quick free tests like the ones on Eclectic Energies or Truity helpful as a starting point. 📊✨ More in-depth tests, like the RHETI by the Enneagram Institute, can be more precise but do come with a fee. 💸🧐 Personally, I discovered my type through a combination of a test and a lot of personal reflection and reading. 🌿🧘♀️ Taking a test was like getting a hint, but studying the types and observing my own behavior brought deeper understanding. Books by authors like Richard Rohr and Helen Palmer were especially helpful. 📚💡 I'd recommend taking a test to get a preliminary idea, but don't rely solely on it. Cross-reference with detailed descriptions and personal reflection to really pinpoint your type. 🕵️♂️✨ Also, discussing with knowledgeable friends or participating in workshops can offer valuable insights. Hope that helps! Can't wait to hear more about your journey!🌈😊 Thanks! 🌟
