Ever wondered what each Enneagram type would be like as a dog? Here's a quick breakdown of their type ! 🐕

Want to dive deeper into each type? Check them out here : One / Two / Three Four / Five / Six Seven / Eight / Nine

xNFPs are some of the most popular types of people within this community, but the two types are often misunderstood. Primarily, INFPs are seen as “emotional crybabies” and ENFPs are seen as “overly-excited manic pixie girls”. In this post, I will mainly summarise the primary functions of both mbti types and also debunk misconceptions and stereotypes. Since my previous post became quite popular, I will debunk <all> function combinations in MBTI, and if I have time I will also go over the jungian combinations like IN(IF) (Ni-Fi, aka ISFP in loop), ET(EN) (Te-Ne), etc.

I am not sticking 100% to Jung’s own interpretations and I included some modern MBTI interpretations. I have not fully read Jung’s works and when I have, I will make posts talking about the types in detail (the book is like 988 pages, I ain’t reading all of that).

*ೃ༄Introverted Feeling*ೃ༄

Fi: Introverted feeling is a function focused primarily on subjective viewpoints in terms of emotions. Opposite to Te, which focuses on objectivity and the truth outside of their own viewpoints, Fi is determined to understand their personal perception of everything. Fi builds a personal, internal moral compass, one that does not necessarily align with external social values or group harmony. Fi is a judging function (in jungian), meaning it filters experiences through a personal lens of what feels right or wrong, good or bad, beautiful or ugly. Like Ti, which values internal logical consistency, Fi values internal moral consistency and makes decisions based on if the action aligns with their values and beliefs.

How it manifests: It is still a cognitive function related to thinking. Contrary to misconceptions, Fi is often not the “whiny emotionally expressive crybaby”. Fi, as described by Jung, is oftentimes very emotionally distant and has a hard time expressing their feelings. Fi is a rational type in jungian, meaning that the focus is on analyzing subjective values rather than <experiencing> said feelings. Generally, Fi users excel at empathizing on an individual and deep level, rather than a broad social one. Fi prioritizes individuality more than collectivism, making them rebels when their integrity is questioned. Fi usually makes a person who is oftentimes very sensitive to being misunderstood or being hurt. Introspective, deep, and philosophical, high Fi users are often very good at understanding who they are outside of societal expectations and norms.

Behaviors that can exist due to dominant Fi:

Reclusiveness, quietness, refusal to express and explain their feelings. Finds it hard to open up

Fells things deeply. Sentimental, poetic, and introspective. As a great understanding of why they feel a certain way

May appear stoic and unassuming on the outside. However, they have an intense inner emotional life

Can be self-oriented and biased when making decisions, can be stubborn at times and dogmatic with their viewpoints

Has a love for abstraction of emotions: ideas such as love, patronism, passion, loyalty, and pain are appealing

Attached to internal moral code. Indifference to socially accepted morals  / ethics

Dedicated to finding their true self and personal identity. Trusts their own intuition and conscience

*ೃ༄Extroverted Intuition*ೃ༄

Ne: Extroverted feeling is a function that values possibilities, abstract patterns, and exploration. Ne craves novelty and open-endness, neglecting the focus on reality or the current state of the world. Ne is a very scatterbrained function: it jumps from idea to idea, lacking focus on any particular idea. Ne is good at spotting hidden connections and spotting trends between abstract ideas. Overall, Ne is the function that generates “what ifs” by connecting dots. It takes one idea/information and generates dozens of ideas/concepts, like a funnel. Ne has a frustration against reality, wanting to break boundaries and seek things that are outside of their current capacities and circumstances. Hating the past and the present, Ne constantly dreams of a future that is not grounded. Ne is very opportunistic: it is a type that has an eye on potential ways the future can enroll.

How it manifests: Ne’s manifestation in behavior can be erratic. Oftentimes, people associate Ne dominants to be sporadic, scatter-brained, and talkative. This is not always true. But what is true is that this is not a very practical type. Ne users are not focused on “seeing the existing stable situation”, as Jung has said, but rather focused on the future, possibilities, and what could happen. Because Ne users are not rational types (leading with F or T), they are highly impractical, oftentimes excited for the future. The most visible manifestation of Ne is the habit of escapism aka. consistently making plans to escape reality. The other is having a dislike towards routines. What I mean is that Ne goes against Si, which tends to favor routines, predictability, and nostalgia. Ne constantly seeks for the new and novel. Adding onto the hatred for routines, Ne also hates restriction. Ne oftentimes makes a very adventurous person, interested in exploration and disliking those who are not open to such ideas.

Behaviors that can exist due to dominant Ne:

Oftentimes has a sanguine attitude towards life. Easily excited for the future, but oftentimes drops ideas coldly after feeling a burning passion towards it. Lacks the ability to commit to any particular idea or goal

Has issues with being concise or explaining their ideas in a concise way. Scatterbrained and random, that is their thinking style. A trivial habit is the tendency to write walls of text without breaking them into concise paragraphs that sort based on main ideas. 

Similar to above, Ne users do not know the difference between important and unimportant ideas. Likes the idea of all possibilities being open

Hates rules, regulation, and restriction

Has a liberal look towards life (not always political). Likes change and dislikes people who are attached to traditions and practicality

Curious, adventurous, and excited for what life can be like. Dreamy, out of touch, and dislikes the current reality

Most common ENFP enneagram = Sexual 7 , self preservation 2. Wings include 2w3, 2w1, 7w6, 7w8

Most common INFP enneagram = all e4s, mainly social 4, self preservation six. Wings include 4w5, 6w5, 4w3

Most common INFP trifixes = 469, 459, 461, 451, 269

Most common ENFP trifixes = 479, 279, 478, 278

Social 7 "Sacrifice"

Similar to SO6 the SO7 craves happiness through the formation and progression of social circles. The social 7 finds true enjoyment in life through the understanding of community and friendships. Social 7s can have a wide or a small desire for this type of enjoyment. Some so7 will have small circles who they keep close in order to find enjoyment. While some others will have a general overview of people and the need to share their enjoyment of life with them. Whether it is by improving their social and emotional well being or just being a good friend to others. And IMO they are the most extroverted of the types in the enneagram. This subtype can look like a 9 (but more assertive and focus on immediate enjoyment)

Characters: Jayce tallis, Ashoka Tano, Tony Stark, Elena, Mabel Pines, Aang, Buffy Summers and Spongebob.

Self Preservation 7 "Family"

Unlike the So7 the Sp7 is all about self enjoyment and indulgence. This subtype is described as the most gluttonous of the type 7. This is usually due to their constant need to feel pleasure and avoid distaste or discomfort in life. These 7s have a 3ish look to them to their obsession with easy fast results, assertiveness and luxury. However, a clear distinction to take into consideration is the root of the desire of luxury. The Sp7 looks at luxury as something they simply enjoy. Luxury permits the SP7 to have a broad taste for the things that brings them joy. While the 3s desire for luxury is more about symbolism and promotion of the self.

Characters: Satoru Gojo, Flynn Ryder, Gabrielle Sollis, Agatha Harkness, Wallace Wells, Deadpool, Jessica Riley and Fleabag

Sexual 7 "Fascination"

To the SX7 the idealization of romance comes from the rush of happiness and excitement from falling in love. This subtype in specific focuses on the millions of possibilities there are to live in a romantic relationship. For them finding this partner and understanding the possibilities and the different factions of their personality comes first. To SX7 the enjoyment of love and inter personality comes first and foremost. This subtype tends to look like a SX8 due to their assertive approach to romance or a SX9 due to their desire for connection with another.

MBTI

Dominant Se

He is always on the move and quick to take action. When Elphaba puts the whole class to sleep he took action first to free the lion from its cage and asks Elphaba to tag along.

He dislikes when his movements/choices are restricted by the regime because he has to pretend to go along with the propaganda (which includes his forced engagement). When he dislikes people talking about Elphaba and he sees Glinda dislikes it too, his instinct is to act quickly.

He also tries to control situations quickly before everyone else, such as being the leader of the Gale Force so he can reach Elphaba first before anyone else.

When he saw Elphaba for the first time in years, he came up with plan spontaneously to buy them some time to escape and made a split second decision to join her instead.

When the Gale Force arrested Elphaba he immediately jumps into action without thinking the consequences too much.

Auxiliary Ti

When the people from Munchkinland believe the rumors about Elphaba, and one of them is that she can be melted by water, he got frustrated because people are so empty headed that they'll believe anything without thinking about it on their own.

When he hates people saying these things about Elphaba and sees Glinda also hates it too, he then sees that staying there is illogical and useless ("Then what are we doing here?") and his auxiliary Ti helps his dominant Se to come up with a quick logical solution, which is to leave.

Ti notices inconsistencies both in their own thinking/arguments and someone's arguments and could use someone's false/inconsistent/illogical argument to their advantage as a loophole.

He sees the inconsistencies in what Glinda says when she says that she hates to see people saying those things about Elphaba but then when he proposed the logical solution, that is to leave, she says that she can't go along with his proposed logical solution when people are relying on her to raise their spirits then he's frustrated and annoyed by her inconsistencies and illogical choice. He also uses the same sentiment about the melting to buy Elphaba and him some time to escape.

Tertiary Fe

Fiyero is introduced as a charming prince, trying to get out of trouble by his charms and flirting at everyone for fun. When Elphaba rejected his attempt to flirt he was surprised and just played it off.

When he starts to see how illogical the people in Munchkinland can be with the rumors that they believe about Elphaba, he tries to mask his frustration, maintaining harmony, but it doesn't last long because an auxiliary function (in his case is Ti) can't be silenced. And as the rumors grow even more illogical, he finally drops his tertiary Fe mask and no longer want to maintain the social harmony and just say his frustration at the illogical statements.

His tertiary Fe sees through Glinda's motivation (just as a means to serve/complete his auxiliary Ti solution) and he knows when someone is basked in that kind of attention for too long, they will be afraid to lose everything, and hence why she refuses to leave with him. But knowing all this, he still insists his Ti solution to leave and frustrated that Glinda choose otherwise (since he prefers and can't silence his auxiliary compared to his tertiary function). He then resorts back to societal expectations and offers to marry Glinda if it makes her happy.

When Elphaba gets arrested he's exploiting the social dynamics by pointing his gun and threatening to shoot Glinda knowing fully well that it will not look good for the guards if they stay idle if Glinda is (threatened to be) shot and then they released Elphaba.

Inferior Ni

The first time we know him is him actually appearing to be shallow and basically just going through life without thinking too much about it. He avoids engaging deeply with himself until Elphaba forces him to reflect.

Shadow Functions

Opposing Si

No data.

Critical Parent Te

When Elphaba is deemed as national enemy, he ensures that he secures the most effective and strategic position that he could get, being the captain of The Gale Force, so the wizard's troop wouldn't reach her first, not under his control, and thus protecting Elphaba quietly.

Trickster Fi

He actually cares (whether or not he realize it) but he pretends to be shallow and self-absorbed. He basically becomes the devil's advocate when he sees Elphaba is passionate about the animal cause, asking her why she always have to cause commotions and comes off to her as him critiquing her for caring too much.

She then in turn reads his vulnerability and sees him beyond the mask, pointing out that he's actually unhappy and he was taken aback by this. Fi in trickster position refuses to be seen as vulnerable because they have no idea on how to structure their feelings and thus cannot structure it to make those feelings as their own personal values, so in context of vulnerability they will grossly attribute vulnerability as something bad without knowing the reason why such is the case, what structures those decisions to see vulnerability as something bad. So without knowing the structure, they can't navigate through their feelings very well and choose how to display vulnerability while still being comfortable with themselves.

Years after Elphaba left Shiz, Glinda had a surprise engagement for him, which he doesn't know about himself, and she announced it to the public and despite him not happy being together with Glinda and having time to speak to her privately, he still offers to marry her if it makes her happy and dismiss his own feelings.

Demon Ne

When Elphaba says, "Can you imagine a world where animals are kept in cages and they never learn to speak? This poor lion cub seems so frightened, what are we gonna do?" and he replied confused, "Sorry, we?" shows that he can't see beyond the constrictions of the current reality to take tangible actions (which is clearly impossible at that moment).

Enneagram

7w8 783 so/sx

In the beginning he acts as a classic 7 core, he chases experiences, moving from school to school, he seeks fun, and always tries to distract his negative feelings by dancing through life and saying that life's more painless if you don't think a lot so why should you? He prefers to pretend that he is shallow and doesn't care about anything instead of admitting that he's unhappy.

His 8 wing and tritype makes him quite a rebel. When he sees the injustice and how corrupt the regime is, his gut tells him to resist all of this. He has this instinct to protect the weak though he doesn't want to admit that he cares (he's the only other student other than Elphaba who yells at the injustice that was displayed as they forcibly dragged Dr. Dillamond away). His 8 wings makes him feel offended when Elphaba exposes his vulnerability because that means that he has let his guard down. You can also see he is quite forcible to get what he wants especially when his autonomy is crossed (him being trapped into the engagement against his will). When Glinda announced that they're engaged without his consent, he forcibly just walks out of his own wedding when he sees the opportunity. He still even tries to appear strong and hide his vulnerability when he sacrifices himself for Elphaba

He uses his 3 tritype to build on a mask that the public will like, so the people will admire him as a person while denying what he really wants for a long time.

Make life your bitch, instead of your boss.

Use your 8 wing.

Hi there, sweetie! I really hope you like this a lot!
