    Default enneagram type of Cyclops

    Just wondering, does anyone have an opinion on what enneagram type I could be?

    I've heard Type 5, Type 6, and 5w6 with 6w5

    I sat a test

    -2 3 -3 -1 7 0 0 2 -6 (type 1 at start and type 9 at end)

    The strange result is your high score on type 2, otherwise it is pretty much what we should expect. The most logical type for an ISTp to be is after all type 5 -- the creative type in the Enneagram.

    2s are fucking annoying. They should learn to mind their own business. They are my perfect conflictors.

    Yeah, I know. machintruc = ISTj; most 2s = ENFj or ESFj; makes sense.

    My interaction with 2s is no that bad for me actually, as it is for them. They give, I take. They think they haven't given enough so they give more, I take again and leave. I get candies, they remain miserable.

    Yes, of course. 2s are leading.

    I can't really see myself as a 2, well not really at all.

    There is a lot within the 5 which I can relate to. In regards to 6 I don't need a group of which I have to belong to per se, I'm quite happy being the 'lone wolf' if need be, but there are some things in a 6 I see also, perhaps this is related to being part of the mental ring, but type 7 I would say is not me.

    I guess i'll have to give it more thought. I'm kind of sure of which type I am on the enneagram, but not totally sure, and there's no point in rushing things.

    I've heard of myself as a 9- but I can't really see that at all. Maybe more so IRL I could maybe as I do value my peace, but there are far too many reasons against being a 9 really I think, which is reflected in my low score for it haha.

    From reading descriptions i'm kinda edging towards 5 I guess.

    Of course not. No one can see you as a 2, because you are not a 2. But how can you score so high on 2 when you are creative? I always score lowest on 2 (and 3).

    Type 7 is always extraverted, so no ISTp should be that type.

    Type 9 is so clearly F that an ISTp really has to strain himself in order to identify with that type. I strongly identify with the IP temperament in type 9, but not much else.

    Who's the next ISTp in line? We cannot rest until all ISTps have accepted that they are 5s.

    As you've said yourself, there is no good fit for an ISTp in the enneagram. 5 could be the closest alongside with 4, 6, and 9, all potentially coming close to a certain degree, but I doubt any real ISTp would identify strongly with either one of the enneagram types.

    Cyclops, I agree with 5 for you.

    What I mean by that is that there is always a better fit for another socionic type in every one of the Enneagram types.

    An ISTp can never be a 4 because every 4 is an intuitive type.

    The intuition of type 4 is indisputable, so every sensory type is ruled out in that category.

    And type 9 is clearly ethical, so no ISTp can be a 9 either -- unless we redefine type 9 and describe it differently. In that case potentially every IP could be a 9.

    In order for an ISTp to be a 6, you have to explain what an ISTp has in common with an ISFj, and why that similarity is relevant to their typings.

    Type 5 is the least problematic for an ISTp, because even though type 5 is described as more intuitive that sensory, that aspect is not so obvious as is the intuition of type 4 and the ethics of type 9. So the INTp is the prototype for type 5, but we can accept the ISTp there too, becasue they have a clearly type relevant similarity in that they are both creative types.

    I disagree.

    The intuition of type 4 doesn't equal the intuition of iNtuitive socionics types.

    I agree, that's what I've found myself. But I wouldn't go as far as to say that "no ISTp can be a 9". Some of what you'd call Si ISTp's could be 9s. I know I am not though.

    Even though the ISFj is probably the best overall fit for a 6, I don't think every 6 must be an ISFj. And ISTps do (or can) have things in common with ISFjs, like Fi/Te values, weak Ne, focus on security etc...

    I agree, but 5s can aslo be INTjs and possibly other types as well.
