Enneagram

[altariel]

I've never really got on with the Enneagram - I seem to change type every time I do it. But this time I saw that I got the same one as Ursula Le Guin, so I was happy. Also, I had a four-wing with it, which makes me 'the iconoclast', and that flattered me sufficiently too. Also, I love that they tell you what personality disorder it means you have (me: "The Schizoid Avoidant, and Schizotypal Personality Disorders" - coo!), and the little gendered pictures ("Are you Boy-Schizoid or Girl-Schizoid?").

I've seen one other person with this Enneagram thing on their LJ, but I'm still stumped as to what it is exactly. (I'm dense, danggit.)

It's a personality test. If you click on the picture, it'll send you to a page which tells you more about the test, and lets you take it.

Ohhh... okay, I've taken it.

Type Six
The Loyalist
The committed, security-oriented type. Sixes are reliable, hard-working, responsible, and trustworthy. Excellent "troubleshooters," they foresee problems and foster cooperation, but can also become defensive, evasive, and anxious—running on stress while complaining about it. They can be cautious and indecisive, but also reactive, defiant and rebellious. They typically have problems with self-doubt and suspicion. At their Best: internally stable and self-reliant, courageously championing themselves and others.

Interesting. ^_^

My favourite personality test is the Myers-Briggs test. I'm consistently an INFJ on that.

According to the test you pointed to, I'm an INTP. Whatever the heck that means.

There's one summary here... This website will tell you probably a lot more than you wanted to know about what those four letters mean. Or you can use the tried and tested means of poking around the other descriptions on both sites until you find one that you prefer.

ooooooh, I hadn't seen that one before. I've come out with the same result as on the one that I did a couple of weeks ago, which I still haven't told you the result of. :-)
