Enneagram 497/479 Tritype

"This is the sort of sprite or fairy like tritype. There is a need to remain positive while still searching for meaning. The life mission is that this is the true healer archetype... They like to inspire people toward happiness through expressing their creativity in a peaceful non-intrusive way.

You see the wonder in beauty and are gentle, lyrical, and idealistic in the way you relate to others. You are attracted to the healing profession or arts. Your life mission is to identify what is truly meaningful in life and help people transform negative feeling into positive change. A true gentle spirit, you feel happiest when you have creative expression to reconnect with your innermost self and facilitate change. Your blind spot is that you can be so focused on ideal circumstances that you become trapped in magical thinking and fail to speak your higher truth and act in accordance with your true feelings.

This is the most lyrical type, a sort of ethereal archetype (so is the 459 but it is a more withdrawn ethereal quality, almost wispy and ghost like) whereas the energy here is lighter and more impish. Playful yet meaningful. Very idealistic (although not quite as idealistic as the 471) but still concerned with maintaining positivity and feelings of being up.

Your growing edge is to speak your truth even if it will create conflict with others. Going along to get along or to keep things light and upbeat denies the truth of the moment and can cause you to become distant from yourself. Higher love has a voice and true joy is not dependent on the image of being happy."

Type 4: "Motivated by the need to understand and to be understood, Fours desire experiences that are rich with feeling and meaning. They may find it easier to deal with painful emotions than to deal with the tedium of daily routine. Fours have the temperament of an artist and long to freely express themselves. Fours feel their emotions deeply and are not afraid to go emotionally where others fear to tread. This includes having an exquisite, intuitive ability to distinguish between subtle emotions that others often miss. Painfully self-conscious, Fours are often overly focused on how different they are from others. A true humanitarian, they have a natural passion for protest. At times intense and contrary, Fours are not afraid to think for yourself and voice your point of view."

Type 9: "Desiring union, harmony and unconditional love, Nines get along with most people that they meet. Considerate and gentle, they have an innate ability to make people feel comfortable and at ease. Nines are very accepting and readily empathize with others. Focused on the well-being of others, they may at times lose sight of their own agenda. More intellectual than they let on, they have a natural gift for seeing many different points of view. Nines are able to see all the shades of gray in any given situation and have a way of diffusing conflict and being calm and steady in a crisis. Focusing on similarities rather than differences, they make an excellent mediator and peacemaker."

Type 7: "Outgoing and spontaneous, Sevens love anything that is new, novel or unusual. A charmed charmer, they are fascinated by people, places and ideas. Upbeat, positive and optimistic, they naturally cheer up and inspire others. Quick to laugh and make a joke, they easily entertain people. Sevens are also easily entertained. An idealist and visionary, they strive to create a paradise on earth by sharing their vision of love, equality and freedom. A ‘jack of all trades’, they often have diverse skills and interests. Sevens are innovative, multi-talented, creative and at home in the world of things and experiences."
