Dual type(as per tcaudilllg)
Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?
I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

Is it possible to be just an Sp?

No
You have all three instincts but with different strenght. Persons of the same type (eg. sp/sx) are also different concerning the strenght of their "sp" or "sx"
So you might be someone with a strong first instinct and a weak second instinct.
My spontaneous guess would also be sp/sx.

I don't agree with the unhealthy aspects of Sp for myself I do aggree with the unhealthy aspects of sx. Does that change things?No

Not necessarily. I just thought you might be So last and was unsure if Sx/Sp or Sp/sx. which unhealthy aspects do you mean? (source?)
In the link that you sent me it lists aspects about each type and among them is an "unhealthy" description

In the summary section:
coping methods (unhealthy) - over-stocking, overbuying, overeating, overpurging, oversleeping, undersleeping, overindulging in aesthetics or comfort foods, mistreatment of comfort and security as is skewed by the secondary instinct

Also I do not related to the So unhealthy section. I do very strongly relate to this:
coping methods (unhealthy) - scattered attention, lack of focus, sexual promiscuity, intensely avoiding intense experiences and connections with a fearful and dysfunctional attitude toward sex, intimacy, and other intense "completing" experiences, as is skewed by the secondary instinct
Not the sexual promiscuity part just being scattered brained. I try to get organized but it's not enough to

https://oceanmoonshine9.wordpress.com/two-stacks/ This might help. I've found it useful to look at the stackings specific for the type.
Maritsa for some reason i thought you could be sp-last. you are intense, but don't give off the insular, withdrawn, self-absorbed kind of vibe that i associate with sp/sx. i'm not that great at typing other's instincts though.
how well do you identify with sx/so and so/sx?
Last edited by glam; 10-07-2015 at 08:06 PM.
No, think sx first actually makes sense. Just because someone needs and wants stability doesn't mean they make it a priority to create it (or are particularly good at it). I thought sp first because Maritsa seems to want stability, but I think sx first would explain the type of intensity she has. I would probably say sx/sp > sx/so.

So the question becomes whether it is sx or so first right?

@Maritsa if you're sp/sx, do you think the descriptions of sp/sx's direction of energy and Contra-flow fits?
Flow of Instinctual Energies & Compatibility
When we invest our energy, most of it is devoted to fulfillment of our primary instinct. The remaining energy radiates or flows onto the secondary instinct and finally onto the last instinct, which receives the smallest share. There are two possible configurations or directions for this flow. In first configuration, energy is invested in the order of sx→sp→so→sx. This direction gives rise to three stackings: sx/sp, sp/so, so/sx. In the second configuration, energy is invested in the order of sx→so→sp→sx, which gives rise to the other three stackings: sx/so, so/sp and sp/sx.
Syn-flow: sp → so → sx → sp
Stackings involved: sp/so → so/sx → sx/sp → sp/so
Direction: Compelled toward people. Acting upon and with others as a born insider i.e.- deeply human.
Contra-flow: sp → sx → so → sp
Stackings involved: sp/sx → sx/so → so/sp → sp/sx
Direction: Compelled against people. Seething belligerent outsiders; 'antisocial', provoking, reverse-flow change catalysts. In some profound sense, rejecting the human condition, their own and/or that of others.
The two flows move in the opposite directions. This antithesis can be seen if the instinctual stackings are compared in pairs:
so/sx - including, associating, affiliating, networking, incorporating, interconnecting, introducing, unifying, linking, bonding, annexing, cooperating, receiving
sx/so - excluding, eliminating, dividing, separating, contradicting, subverting, confronting, rebuffing, ridiculing, challenging, interrupting, reforming, rupturing
sx/sp - intensifying, escalating, rising, surging, enlivening, invigorating, accelerating, stimulating, energizing, vitalizing, reviving, animating, inspiriting
sp/sx - dulling, calming, quieting, grounding, descending, lowering, dampening, numbing, desensitizing, exhausting, deadening, extinguishing, making still
sp/so - conserving, protecting, maintaining, preserving, supplying, repairing, sustaining, stewarding
so/sp - utilizing, employing, implementing, expending, exercising, spending, capitalizing, expropriating
You actively involve yourself in other people's lives very frequently, and you constantly express these interactions on the forums. You're always talking about these two people you know in a relationship, or someone who's having issues with a coworker, or something along those lines. I can't imagine an sp/sx would either instinctively care so much about the well-being of their acquaintanceship or broadcast your observations about these relationships to strangers on the internet.
I stand by so/sx for you on that basis.
I found a post from you a long time ago sp/sx. I agree with that one. I observe people's interactions and use their example

do you relate to this after all then? i.e. when you are feeling stressed are you over-supplying for yourself and your loved ones?
SP-first coping methods (unhealthy) - over-stocking, overbuying, overeating, overpurging, oversleeping, undersleeping, overindulging in aesthetics or comfort foods, mistreatment of comfort and security as is skewed by the secondary instinct
I guess I'm sx first

Anyway... I think the enneagramm is a quite helpful tool. Nevertheless I think instincts are not the most beneficial parts of the enneagramm. I for myself feel all three instincts in me even though one might be stronger than the other. If I observe other people I come to the conclusion that people who I consider average to healthy don't have a very evident "inferior" instinct.
But that's just my opinion on the subject and I know almost all gurus would probably disagree.
This is not apropos of Maritsa's type, but about syn- and contra-flow. How does it make sense that approximately half of humanity are "seething, belligerent outsiders"? I don't think society would function* that were the case. Or are these descriptions supposed to be hyperbolic?
*You can argue that society doesn't function very well, and I won't disagree, but by definition, I don't see how such a large percentage of people can be seen as outsiders. Look around at all the sheeple.
