Enneagram Type and Wing 8w9

theofficialcompany • 5/31/2024 4:27:57 AM

Hey everyone! 👋 I'm diving deep into understanding the nuances of the 8w9 personality and would love some insights from those familiar with this type and wing. From what I gather, the 8w9 combines the assertiveness and protectiveness of an 8 with the calm and go-with-the-flow nature of a 9. This seems like a fascinating combination, but I'm curious to hear more personal experiences and observations. How do you typically see the 9 wing influence the core characteristics of type 8? For instance, does it temper some of the more confrontational tendencies of the 8, or is there still a strong drive for control and challenge just in a more laid-back manner? 🤔 Also, how do 8w9s usually handle conflict and relationships? Any tips for better understanding and connecting with an 8w9 in personal or professional settings? Looking forward to your thoughts and experiences! 😊 Thanks!

Hey everyone! 😊 I've been diving deep into the Enneagram recently, especially the 8w9 type, and I'm curious about others' experiences. How do you find the balance between the assertiveness of Type 8 and the more laid-back, peace-seeking aspects of the 9 wing? I've read that while Type 8s are naturally confident, decisive, and protective, the 9 wing can add a layer of calmness and a desire for harmony. How does this dynamic play out in your personal and professional relationships? Do any of you find it challenging to manage the potential inner conflict between wanting to stand your ground and wanting to keep the peace? Would love to hear your insights, tips, and stories about being an 8w9. How do you integrate these seemingly contrasting traits into your everyday life? Thanks! 💬 #Enneagram #Type8 #8w9 #PersonalityTypes #SelfGrowth

Hey everyone! 🌟 I'm trying to understand more about the 8w9 type on the Enneagram. I've read that people with this type can be fiercely independent and strong, but also have a calmer, more laid-back side due to the 9 wing. It's fascinating how these two seemingly different aspects blend together. For those who identify as 8w9 or know someone who does, how do you see this combination manifest in everyday life? Are there particular challenges or strengths you've noticed? And how do you navigate the balance between the assertiveness of Type 8 and the peacemaking tendencies of Type 9? Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated! 😊

Hey everyone! I'm fascinated by the nuances of the Enneagram, especially when it comes to understanding my own Type 8w9. I relate strongly to the assertive nature of the Type 8, but I also see a lot of the peace-seeking, laid-back traits of the Type 9 wing in myself. Sometimes, it feels like a tug-of-war between these two sides. What I'd love to hear from you all is how do you balance the intense energy of Type 8 with the more composed, chilled-out vibe of the 9 wing? Also, how does this dynamic play out in your relationships and work environment? Any tips on harnessing both aspects effectively? Looking forward to hearing your insights! 😊 Thanks!

Type 8 is the Challenger 🛡️, which resonates with my assertive and protective nature, but I’m wondering how the 9 wing (Peacemaker ☮️) influences this type? How do you balance the driving force of Type 8 with the calming, peace-seeking traits of the 9 wing? Do you find that the 9 wing helps you manage conflict and aggression, or does it create an internal struggle between wanting to assert control and desiring harmony?
