Wings

- 9w8 -

The 8 wing helps the passive 9 core be more assertive and confident. They are not shy to share their own opinions and thoughts with others. They can be more outgoing and social. 9w8s can express their anger a bit more comfortably than the typical 9 - but it's only if they find it absolutely necessary. After all, they still do not want to cause conflict. This fear can clash with 8's intensity.

- 9w1 -

The 1 wing adds a perfectionistic and moralistic character to the 9 core. They prioritize fairness and harmony, much more people focused. They are more reserved and calmer compared to 9w8. 9w1s try to see all sides of a situation but will still try to choose the right answer in the end.

___

Disintegration: 6

When 9s disintegrate to 6, they become fearful, anxious, and insecure. They can feel overwhelmed and as a result, can be defensive and passive aggressive. They can very indecisive during disintegration and rely on others to make decisions for them. A disintegrated 9 can complain a lot and blame others for their issues.

Integration: 3

When 9s integrate to 3, they become more motivated and energetic. They learn to be more bold and assertive. They actually try to live life themselves instead of living it through others and letting opportunities slip by. Integrated 9s are more confident and action oriented.

___

Subtypes of 9

- Sp 9 -

Sp 9s are most concerned about physical matters such as eating, sleeping, reading, and any other activity to satisfy their physical and psychological comforts. They want to keep a simple routine in life since it already gives them peace and fulfillment. Any type of disturbance to their routine can be upsetting. These comforts help make their life feel complete, which is what they seek most in life. Since they're often so reserved, they can be very passive to other things in their surroundings. They can ignore and dismiss things that demand their time and energy. This results in passive aggressive behavior. Lots of repressed feelings as well.

- Sx 9 -

Sx 9 wants to fuse with others. They build strong bonds with others to achieve a sense of comfort in them. Can be overly dependent on the other person for a sense of identity. This subtype blends in with the person they're with, rarely stating their own opinions - they will naturally go along with the other person's passions and desires. Sx 9s may struggle with asserting personal boundaries. This type is the most gentle and can appeal to others through their softer charms.

- So 9 -

So 9s prioritize the feelings and needs of the group over their own. They will put up a happy front in order to avoid burdening others with their own issues and needs. They just want to bring peace and joy to others' lives. It makes them happy to care for others. They may make themselves smaller though in order to not appear bigger to others. So 9s just want a harmonious and peaceful environment and will work hard to achieve that.

Core type- Passion: sloth. E9s are extremely lazy when it comes to figuring themselves out, in fact, they’re more active when it comes to avoiding this. Fixation: indolence. They're also rather lethargic when it comes to their feelings and needs, and so, not allowing themselves to do what they’d most desire. Trap: seeker. They seek outside of themselves to what can help them from their problems, running from themselves. Defence mechanism: narcotization. To avoid being uncomfortable and keep their self image of being harmonious, they narcotize themselves to stop any negative, intense or painful emotion. Virtue: action. To overcome this laziness, the e9 has to learn to take action in what they love and who they are. They must learn to experience their essence. Key traits: Over-adjustment and merging, resignation, easygoing nature/affability, indecision.

Subtypes- Self preservation [sp]: The sp9 merges with things like routine and physical comfort. These routines can be anything, as long as they feel their painful thoughts and feelings are being suppressed by them. They can hold more grudges to others and obligations when they don’t fit their routines, ‘you asked me so now i don’t feel like doing it anymore.’ Sexual [sx]: Sx9s have the tendency to merge too much with someone else, often to the point they lose their entire sense of self. This makes it hard for them to notice what they don’t and do want and need, when they do they’re often scared to express these needs and so continue to suppress. Social [so]: So9s are extremely active compared to the other subtypes. They merge with groups and think that they need to work hard to obtain and keep this status in their social circle. They can even look similar to e3s at times, the difference is that they truly strive for acceptance of the group and a sense of belonging instead of material success.

Contradictions-  INFP, INFJ, INTJ, INTP, ENFP, ENTP, ENTJ, ENFJ, ISFP, ESTJ The most important misconception in these contradictions are intuitive types. This is due to psychological interia (concretism, lack of openness, etc), robot habit-boundness (bound to custom, regularity and tradition), distractibility (oversimplification of inner and outer world and laziness). All this directly contradicts intuition's main focus on abstraction, creation and overcomplication. E9 is also widely regarded as incompatible with Fi dominance, this is particularly prevalent in narcotization, being the deadening of feelings, while Fi values their emotion most. E9s also tend to lack communication about themselves, which is strange considering Fi being occupied with their self identity and expression.  Types you might want to look into if you are on this list are e2, e4, e5, e6 and e7.

i don’t believe in the ‘any mbti type can be any enneagram type’ kind of crap.

some combos are just too contradictory to be real. like IxFxs who are type 8 or ExTPs who are type 4.

xxTP contradicts with 4, high Ti pulls away from emotions and tries to rationalise them, whereas 4 dwells in em.

however all IxxPs have a similar ‘aura’ that can be mistaken as type 4. for example: strongly values freedom and very protective of identity/ “i” talking.

soo an intp would still be very protective of his identity and still be self-centred but still be type 5.

on the other hand ANY mbti can have ANY enneagram type as a FIX. the first fix is usually the strongest, how strong it is depends on the person and on the circumstances.

it even happens that the fix SEEMS stronger than your core type if the circumstances favours it. if a 451 works as a researcher in a highly scientific environment the 5 fix can overshadow the core 4, however 4 would still be your main type.

another example: if the 461 is in a situation that requires them too be overly worried, their 6 fix will take over.

a lot of ppl mistake a strong fix for their core type and mistype themselves therefore.

soo if you think your enneagram is rather unusual for your mbti, consider it might be a strong fix and stop assuming you are some kind of ‘rare combo’ when you’re rly just mistyped.
