~~by Richard Curran Trussel~~ Moses had an easy going, placid nature. We got him early in his life and gave him lots of love, providing consistent training and discipline. He was a late bloomer. He didn’t bark until he was past 11 1/2 years old. I seriously questioned his intelligence. Often he just seemed so [...]
~~by Richard Curran Trussel~~ Not everyone relates to animals, but for those who do, elements of Enneagram type manifest. One of the many gifts animals offer us is that they potentially lead us beyond our fixations. One What place do companion animals have with someone who is organized and orderly, striving to make every detail [...]
~~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. I focus quite a bit on the style in which each of the subtypes deals with relationships [...]
~~by Peter O’Hanrahan~~ Overview Our primary subtype has a powerful effect on our relationships. We bring all three of our instincts into our relationships, yet one of these is central. Over the past 30 years of Enneagram work, many people have found that subtype in a primary relationship is more important than personality type itself when [...]
After two months in a perfectly nice place on the edge of a little lake, in the Himalayan foothills with weather only matched by California or Hawaii, it was still east, west, home’s best. This trip turned out to be extremely productive towards finding connections between the Enneagram and Jyotish (Vedic) astronomy/astrology. After five years [...]
Well, we have been about a month here in India and the Internet is finally fine-tuned to the point where 70% of the time it’s working fairly well. Staying in the Himalayan foothills far away from large urban centers sure makes you realize how intertwined our lives are with electronic services and how dependent we [...]

~~by Clarence Thomson~~ The Intimate (One-to-One, or Sexual) Four The Intimate Fours begin with a sense of defect which appears in relationship to someone or something else. It is not enough that one feels defective—one must also recognize that no one else is. The vice of envy is relational—it is not free-standing. Envy will take [...]
Jack Labanauskas: Has your general focus regarding the Enneagram changed in the past few years? I’m interested if there was a shift and what direction it took. Sandra Maitri: In terms of change of focus in the last years, the main thing is that I have become quite dissatisfied with doing stand-alone Enneagram workshops. Primarily [...]
continued from Interview with Sandra Maitri – Part 1 Jack Labanauskas: In the last issue you went through a brief synopsis of the types, which is familiar ground to most readers, but far fewer people pay equal attention to the passions or have a clear concept of what they mean. It is as if initially, [...]
Thomas Isham: I wish to set the record straight on one issue and add some comments on another. 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 [...]
Bert Rose: If we accept that thinking triad has the common emotional base fear and body triad has the common emotional base anger, could we consider possibility that emotional triad has the common emotional base pride rather than “emotions?” Sterling Doughty: I also think it pretty obvious that Western culture is far more concerned with [...]
Antonio Barbato: I agree with Thomas Isham that the Enneagram is like a compass needle pointing the way towards the transcendent. My comments were not intended to be critical in any way. You correctly use “balance” as the keyword. I’m also on the same page with Fromm’s affirmation that western culture at this time favors [...]
