Implications of having a 9-wing for 1w9 and 8w9
I think the w9 in ennagram explains for a lot of things, particularly my "reservedness" - look at my photo/current avatar.
It is contradictory, because it sort of is a decoy for the underlying intensity, pressure, and energy that I have.
Do you have any experience with w9 people?
Or if you are one yourself, do you have any comments about how it can be misleading?
Wings getting in the way of fulfillment
Do you think that could be the case?
Perhaps it's part of my own development but I find the more I focus on 9 type things the less happy I am. 9 energy is 'ok' with me, but, I can't act as a 9 because it takes away from my real focus, which is more "power" oriented - in terms of what controls or is influencing me.
If I'm too laid back and too 9ish, I feel like I'm being too passive, and I want to be "above the influence".
Does that translate to anyone else's experiences? Or do you find wings to be... comforting somehow?
