~~Dick Wright Ph.D.~~ Enneagram authors tend to follow one of two “classic” approaches to describing the three triads.

~~by Antonio Barbato~~ These are three stories of actual type Four women (one of each subtype), and about how each major change in life came with its own physical component, its own emotional state and its own reasoning.

In the course of gathering, editing and discussing articles on material for the Enneagram Monthly, new and innovative ideas come up frequently, but in this issue we have a particularly rich selection. A small price to pay is that it often causes our timing to lag, but waiting for good material to come together is [...]
A New Year is a time to give in to the temptation of making resolutions — some keep them more than others— can’t brag that my record is worthy of mentioning…But what’s the harm in taking stock of where we’re at in life and if we can tweak some areas towards more wisdom. Every positive [...]

As to the first: a delightful quotation has been floating through “The Conversation” for the past several issues, attributed sometimes to myself, sometimes to Antonio Barbato, and sometimes to both of us. “The Enneagram,” it says, “is [...]
