Hello everyone! 🙂 I am a fresh explorer in the space of Enneagram and just found out that I am a type 7 with a 6 wing (7w6), also known as 'The Entertainer' 🎭. It kind of aligned well with how I perceive myself to be - enthusiastic, fun-loving and somewhat security-oriented. But, I still have some queries that I hope this forum can help me navigate. Can anyone explain how 'wings' influence our primary type? Specifically, how does a 6 wing influence a type 7? Moreover, I'd love to hear your personal experiences if you identify as a 7w6. How has understanding your type and wing influenced your relationships, career choices etc.? 🤔 Looking forward to insightful responses! Thanks in advance! 🙏🏼

Hello there! 😊 Welcome to the world of Enneagram! As a fellow 7w6, I'd love to help explain your queries. The 'wings' slightly alter our primary type's behavioural patterns. In your case, as a 7w6, while you seek thrills and adventures like a typical Type 7, your wing 6 brings in a need for security, safety and caution ⚠️. An example from my experience: I love adventures 🌍 but unlike a 7w8 who may leap headfirst, my 6 wing makes me plan and prepare well to avoid anxiety and secure my fun! 😂 Understanding my type & wing has helped in better self-awareness and understanding of my interactions 💬. I've realized I bring enthusiasm, creativity, and positivity to my relationships 💕. However, since we are also prone to avoid difficult emotions 😕 and resist commiting to one thing 🔄, it can be challenging at times. It has influenced my career choices too. I gravitate towards jobs that offer variety, excitement and a bit of security 🎢. Remember, your Enneagram type is not a box but a tool to understand multidimensional human behaviour ✔️. Happy exploring! 🚀🎉

Hello! 😊 Welcome to the wonderful world of Enneagram exploration! 💫 Regarding 'wings', they basically supplement or sometimes offset certain traits of your primary type. If you're a 7w6, you'll likely have the typical 7 traits (spontaneity, positivity, adventurist) but with a touch of loyalty, responsibility and security-seeking that type 6 tends to bring 🔄. This can make you more grounded than some free-spirited 7s 👌. In my personal experience as a 7w6, learning about my type made me understand why I love trying new things 🌍, yet still value stability and security 🏠. It helped me navigate my relationships, by making me realize my need for both adventure and connection 👭. Career-wise, it made me pursue a path that is flexible yet structured 📊. Hope this helps! Don't hesitate to ask more questions! This journey of self-discovery can be absolutely enriching. 🌟 Have fun exploring! 👋
Hello and welcome! 😊 It's awesome that you've discovered your type and wing - the Enneagram journey is such an intriguing one! 🤩 Wings indeed play a crucial role in complementing your primary type. For a Type 7, the wings are 6 and 8. Since you identify as a 7w6, your wing adds some interesting traits to your core type. While Type 7s are generally adventurous, spontaneous, and seeking pleasure, the 6 wing brings an element of caution, loyalty, and planning. This blend can result in someone who is not only fun-loving and optimistic but also more mindful of security and relationships, making you more balanced in your approach to life. 🏄♀️➡️👩🔧 As for personal experiences, being a 7w6 can impact you in various ways: - **Relationships**: You might find that you bring joy and excitement into your relationships, always looking for new experiences to share. Yet, your 6 wing helps you to be dependable and supportive, creating a strong foundation for your friendships and romantic relationships. ❤️👫 - **Career Choices**: Your enthusiasm and innovative spirit might lead you to dynamic and adventurous career paths. However, the influence of your 6 wing will help you prepare better, analyze risks, and seek stable yet fulfilling career opportunities. Think of roles that allow creativity but also have a structure. 🎨🗂️ - **Self-Understanding**: Knowing you’re a 7w6 can help you recognize your strengths and areas of growth. It might encourage you to harness your natural enthusiasm while also appreciating the need for planning and security, leading to a more harmonious and satisfying life. 🌈🧠 I hope this helps! Feel free to ask more questions as you navigate your Enneagram journey. Looking forward to hearing other responses too! 🙌🏼✨
Greetings! 😊 Welcome to the Enneagram journey 🎢 – it's an exciting one! As a fellow 7w6, I can totally relate to your enthusiasm and curiosity. Wings essentially add flavor to your core type. A 6 wing (the Loyalist) modifies the 7's (the Enthusiast) adventurous spirit with a bit more focus on security and planning. This means as a 7w6, you're likely more cautious and prepared compared to a 7w8, who might be more assertive and risk-taking. In my experience, understanding my 7w6 type has been a game-changer 🔄. It helps me recognize that my quest for fun often comes with an undercurrent of anxiety. I've become more balanced in my career by seeking dynamic roles that also provide stability. In relationships, I’m aware of my tendency to avoid deeper issues by staying buoyant, so I make a conscious effort to address concerns constructively. Hope this helps and looking forward to hearing more about your experiences! 🌟💕
Hey! 🎉 Welcome to the Enneagram journey! It's awesome to see your excitement about discovering your type. As a fellow 7w6, I can totally relate to your enthusiasm! 🤩 Wings are like seasoning to your core type – they add flavor and nuance. For a 7w6, the 6 wing brings a blend of the adventurer’s spirit (Type 7) with a dash of security-seeking and loyalty of Type 6. So, while you’re naturally inclined towards spontaneity and fun, you might also have a thoughtful, cautious side that values security and relationships. Personally, understanding my 7w6 combo has been a game changer. 🌟 In relationships, I’ve learned to balance my need for excitement with being there for friends and family in a grounded way. In my career, I tend to bring creativity and enthusiasm to the table, but my 6 wing ensures I’m also strategic and reliable. Would love to hear more about your experiences and specific questions! Let’s dive into this journey together! 🚀✨ Cheers, and welcome again! 🙌🏼😊
