So if I'm nearly equally all of them does that mean I'm perfect and without flaw?

Because that sounds about right.

That typically means you're a Type 9, as they identify with everyone reflexively.

I was making a funny, pretty sure I have always tested near to type 8/7 on that thing. Trying to be a better person has made me more considerate and futzed it up.  Heartbreak

Enneagram is about childhood upbringing and core fears, from my perspective.  As a One, I don't want to be wrong or deemed "lacking morality."  Fours don't want to be not-special (ie - "Mundane"), Fives don't want to seem incompetent.  It's annoying as heck, but knowing your blind/weak spots in life is a good thing overall.

Ah, with this explanation my five makes even more sense.

Now the only question that remains is why I slided from INTP to INTJ and why I find that troubling.

Don't pick on Sjofn for her Myers Brigs scores. I am an INFP too :P We're touchy feely and proud of it!

I feel so happy that someone else is like meeee!  awesome, for real

Let's go do something impulsive because it just feels right, man.

I got a 2 Enneagram Type as well. Heh.

Although it is funny that you are drawn to impulsive actions that just 'feel' right. That's not really me at all. I think its my catholic upbringing. If it feels good, it must be seriously seriously wrong.

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

ISTJ.  I'm not entirely sure I agree with it.

Not sure I do either.  As you split S/N 50/50, maybe look at INTJ?

INTP. I'm with Minvaren -- psychology has been a personal interest of study. I've been attempting to learn how different people see things in order to better understand and get along with others. Studying Jung and Myers-Brigg has brought me a little closer.

Specifically, that strength Bunk mentioned ("Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies") has been something I've been trying to temper and control when dealing with people. Injuring egos and inadvertently isolating myself from the world comes too easy with that as a strength.

I get along far, far better with people of a similar temperament. It's almost psychic how I can identify these people, but it may be that there is a mutual "They write / speak / conduct themselves just like me!" that brings people together. Understanding Introversion has made it far easier to see the difference between disinterest and being stoic because you aren't thinking about it how you're presenting yourself.

I'm an ESTJ.

ESTJs are take-charge people. They have such a clear vision of the way that things should be, that they naturally step into leadership roles. They are self-confident and aggressive. They are extremely talented at devising systems and plans for action, and at being able to see what steps need to be taken to complete a specific task. They can sometimes be very demanding and critical, because they have such strongly held beliefs, and are likely to express themselves without reserve if they feel someone isn't meeting their standards. But at least their expressions can be taken at face-value, because the ESTJ is extremely straight-forward and honest.

Absolutely true.

Ha, I'm not actually, it just seemed like the thing to say! I was raised Catholic as well, so usually when I do that I have the Guilt. And then Ingmar gets all BE RATIONAL BITCH and we get in a fistfight.

I retook the test to look at the enneagram thing because I missed it the first time.  Apparently I'm now an ISTP.  Actually, my S/N is pretty much 50/50 and seems to go back and forth these days.  In dental school I was more of a 70/30 INTP.  My enneagram was type 8, which I'm not sure describes me but my wife may agree that it does.   ACK! 


It appears that some examples of type 8s are MLK, Jr., Sinatra, Roseanne Barr, Donald Trump and Lee Iacoca.   DRILLING AND MANLINESS

Huh. I remember doing these tests many years ago, and I always came out as INFJ.

Now apparently I'm ISTP (Type 9, sp/so/sx on the main test - advanced enneagram test put me as a Type 2, sp/so/sx). Since my earlier tests my political and religious views have changed pretty radically also (conservative catholic to lefty liberal atheist). Perhaps I had a stroke.  why so serious?
