What do you think your tritype is?
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...
I am fairly sure that I am 4-7-8.
My guesses about other people:
Salawa: 1-5-4
strrrng: 4-6-8 (A more aggressive, reative 4? I think they had Nick in mind, lol)
implied: 6-4-9 sounds right
Khamelion: 6-4-9? 4-6-9? Hmmm, something is missing, though.
mn0good - hmmmm...7-8-3? But she doesn't seem that intense somehow.
FDG - 7-3-8

Yeah, I agree. Somebody had suggested 1 instead of 8, I don't know though, I can't see it.Originally Posted by Gilly

Indeed, lol. I settled on this trifix a while ago.
4w3-5w6-8w7
I just know my primary/wing type; no idea for my tritype. I would guess 6-8-3? I don't know. I don't relate to any of the heart triad types, for some reason. 2, 3, and 4 all just feel wrong.
maybe a saint is just a dead prick with a good publicist
maybe tommorow's statues are insecure without their foes
go ask the frog what the scorpion knows
uhg I keeping getting 4 and 5
so far its 4-5-8
The end is nigh
where do you keep coming up with 4?
6w5 sx

sloan - rcuei
hah, that's probably a very good point. i can't reasonably see myself as either 2 or 3. i just recall gilly suggesting something like 4w5 as my enneatype, whereas i'm much more sure that i'm 6w5.
6w5 sx

7-2-9.
Charm and disarm -> repair -> submit
Also consistent with surface/deep directions (embrace/embrace for power/give up for approval).
7-8-3 is what I'd decided before.
ILE
7w8 so/sp
Very busy with work. Only kind of around.
Having thought about it, probably 5-1-3.
Surtout, pas trop de zèle.
9-4-7 maybe? I don't know.

So, there 9x6x3=162 different personality types according to this theory!
ILE "Searcher"
Socionics: ENTp

--> perhaps Normalizing
Enneagram: 7w6 "Enthusiast"
MBTI: ENTJ "Field Marshall" or ENTP "Inventor"
Astrological sign: Aquarius
To learn, read. To know, write. To master, teach.
me. i'm completely in the withdrawn triad anyway to the point that it's not even confusing placing myself there, at all.4-9-5 (or 4-5-9, not sure which), who would be more withdrawn, passive (9) and avoidant (5)
No you're not. You're clearly wrong.
I am 3-9-#.
maybe 3-9-6.
(D)IEE~FI-(C)SLE~Ni E-5w4(Sp/Sx)/7w8(So/Sp)/9w1(sp/sx)
Methinks I'm 4, 5 and 1, but in what order I'm not sure.
1-5-4, perhaps. But the growth/stress arrows seem to fail under this system...

Anyone heard of this?
What do you think about this?
Enneagram Tritype
I think my tri-type is 5-4-9 (all withdrawn types). 5-4-1 is also possible.

I think I am 8-5-4 or 5-8-4

8-7-4, I really think this is my tritype, although a lot of people say I have a strong 5 component, I'm a fairly convinced I made my way to disintegration in point 5, people see this as an explanation to my rationality, even though I'm undoubtedly an 8.

My tritype is in my profile.
What do these signs mean—, etc.? Why cannot socionists use symbols Ne, Ni etc. as in MBTI? Just because they have somewhat different meaning. Socionics and MBTI, each in its own way, have slightly modified the original Jung's description of his 8 psychological types. For this reason,
Just one example: in MBTI, Se (extraverted sensing) is associated with life pleasures, excitement etc. By contrast, the socionic function(extraverted sensing) is first and foremost associated with control and expansion of personal space (which sometimes can manifest in excessive aagression, but often also manifests in a capability of managing lots of people and things).
For this reason, we consider comparison between MBTI types and socionic types by functions to be rather useless than useful.

The Enneagram is built primarily on trichotomizations. Based on my admittedly small knowledge of numerology, there seems to be something profane about using a dichotomic approach towards Enneagram. I may have inadvertently kicked that previously closed door right off its fucking hinges. More on that later. Anyways, there are three main triads in the Enneagram; the Heart triad, the Head triad, and the Gut triad. 2, 3, and 4 are in the Heart triad; 5, 6, and 7 are in the Head triad; 8, 9, and 1 are in the Gut triad. There are also a whole host of other various trichotomies in the Enneagram:
. . . Rejection Attachment Frustration
Heart . . 2 . . . . .3. . . . . 4
Head . . .5 . . . . .6. . . . . 7
Gut . . . 8 . . . . .9. . . . . 1
. . . Compliant .Assertive. Withdrawn

Heart . . 2 . . . . .3. . . . . 4
Head . . .7 . . . . .5. . . . . 6
Gut . . . 9 . . . . .1. . . . . 8
The currently standard naming of unpermutated tritypes, as of now, consists of writing them out in numerical order, and arranging them thusly. This creates a mess of the internals; 33% of the time, the Gut type is out in front; 67% of the time, the Heart type is out in front. For the sake of systematic order*, I'm gonna write the Heart type out in front, followed by the Head type, ending with the Gut type: *not only does the heart/head/gut alignment make everything inherently more organized, but when I see the "1" as an abbreviation of, and furthermore the sum of the digits of "10", two things happen. The first thing is that the smallest-to-largest order from heart through head to gut is maintained. The second thing has to do with a type of correllation between the numbers of the minor arcana of the Thoth tarot and a counterclockwise journey through the Enneagram that would travel up the Tree of Life, going backwards in numerical order in both instances, with the true "1" resulting in some sort of transcendence. I'll get to that later...

The Enneagram circle is written with the gut triad on top, and vertical values of Enneagram positionings can carry all sorts of implications. 279 is the Triple Positive-Outlook tritype, and 458 is said to be the darkest tritype; as per my tritypings, this fits incredibly well. The former is at the highest overall position that an Enneagram tritype can be at, and the latter is at the lowest overall position that an Enneagram tritype can be at, sharing this position with the 451 tritype.
To determine the vertical distance from the base of the Enneagram itself to the position of each Enneagram number, I started by assigning degree values to each number in the Enneagram in accordance to their position on the circle itself. From there, I noted how many degrees each Enneagram position was away from the top of the Enneagram. Then, I noted how many degrees each Enneagram position was away from the vertical midpoint of the Enneagram itself. After that, I took the sine of that degree value and then divided that number by 2. sin(90°) = 1, but using 1 as a value would be dumb, because if 1 is the maximum vertical distance from the midpoint of the circle and an Enneagram type, that would make the distance from the bottom of the Enneagram to the top of the Enneagram be 2. And from there, if the Enneagram position was above the equator, I added 0.5 to the result; if the Enneagram position was below the equator, I subtracted the result from 0.5:
From there, I took each Enneagram number in each tritype, added their distances from the bottom of the Enneagram together, and used those sums to arrange the tritypes in order of brightness versus darkness:
bright. . . .tritype . . . . dark
2.174 . . . . .279. . . . . 0.826

I currently have no idea where the hell it is, but I came across an article in which the Enneagram's numbers were rotated in accordance to the reader's Enneagram type, while the lines themselves stayed put. What followed next was some sort of a life journey that consisted of the individual claiming strengths associated with Enneagram types that first followed the connecting lines of the 369 integration pattern; upon reaching "6", the next move was to go clockwise to "7", and then follow the lines of the 758241 pattern of integration; for example, starting at E4 would lead to the following sequence: 4, 7, 1, 2, 9, 3, 6, 8, 5. If the Enneagram's numbers can be rotated in that manner to do something of that magnitude, let's rotate them to first make 3, and then 6, the crown of the Enneagram. Running through the computations in the chart full of degree symbols accordingly would result in the following values:
I noticed that the sums of these three distances always add up to 1.5. Anyways, as I did with brightness/darkness in regards to 9 and the Gut triad, I will also do with 3 and the Heart triad, as well as 6 and the Head triad. Distilling these concepts down to small, one-word containers was no easy task, but exact/loose and alert/sleep work well enough for now. If anyone comes up with better terms, feel free to let me know.

I'm 4w3-7w6-9w1 and the Escapist fits perfectly and so does The Gentle Spirit (gentle is the first word people use to describe me, I don't feel so inside).
I'm 4-7-9 too and I relate.
Speaking from experience, I think there are a lot of cool/ good things about being this tritype though, once you're somewhat healthy and can stay in the real world long enough to see it clearly and do real stuff (1-5-3!) Also, I think despite the outward over-estimation of sweetness and inward narcissism/frustration/violence there's a lot of genuine good will in that combo, but not the pushy kind.
Less healthy is uncool though, it feels like reality is far away and I feel a huge sense of shame about not being able to access it, like it makes me less of a person. Am flaky, incompetent, and there's only so much you can solve with charm.
I feel that it's a type that benefits from reality checks and emotional support, I wonder if you agree (although maybe that's type four.)
but I've always secretly liked it a bit whenever someone called me magical or dream-like which actually a lot of people have...
@lemontrees
wow, I could totally write your post word by word. It's funny how whenever I read posts of people who are 4-7-9 it's like reading my own thoughtsI agree that it's not a bad tritype to have, I mean we're masters of first impressions and likeability - we're diplomatic, kind, playful, open - minded, quirky, witty and we have a very calming presence.We can get out of a lot sticky situations if we turn the charm up.
But just like you said, I sometimes feel like a phony, cause people overastimate the sweetnes and don't see the narcissism, elitism, rebeliousness and built up frustration inside. It's very difficult to dissapoint people later on when we have already made such a good impression. Hence I have real problems with showing anger, sadness, or any negative feelings . And when I do express them, it's somehow received way worse than when other people do. In this regard 4-7-9 feels like split personality ( although that's also from 4w3 I think)
I also have a lot of problems at work which could be related to my tritype . While everybody likes me, they don't take me seriously (I think 4-7-9 comes off very casual and un-bussiness-like) and my voice is often overheard even if I know what I'm talking about. I have to rely on my charm and emotional manipulation in order to get somewhere (I have a very corporate job which I'm not "a natural" at) and I feel shitty afterwards. And as you said, there IS a lot of genuine good will in 4-7-9, especially when healthy.
Unhealthy sucks. I'm not feeling particularly healthy at the moment and I live in some alternative cosmos, in magic land. I procrastinate all day, escaping the reality of everyday life which seems so mundane compared to my imagination. I'm very incompetent at work, because I'm bored out of my mind by it already and I don't even bother to try. The smallest responsibility freaks me out and I feel like the world is limiting my freedom and I have the right to do whatever the fuck I want. Very childlish and irresposible really. Maybe we're some sort of eternal children. The 7 fix also causes soo much trouble, the grass is always greener. I get depressed if nothing new and exciting is on the horizon.
Yes, we desperately need reality checks on a daily basis as we're masters of magical thinking that things will just solve themselves somehow. We need people around us who know how to motivate and support us and help us achieve our goals, get us moving.
If you're in the mood to read, I think this description is spot on :
http://dreamlwithinlaldream.devianta...cons-290939542
and yes, I secretly adore my fairy ass too
@darya
I can relate to so much of that!!
I have always had trouble being taken seriously too (especially by people who like me)- I play sort of the "adorable but flighty" role but not that of an expert or someone others can rely on, even though I think I am pretty smart (although very Te-PoLR lol). People with similar intellectual interests to mine sometimes demean me (although I think it has to do with gender roles, and also the insecurities of intuitive type males.) The only time I was really taken seriously was in grad school, I think, where despite my overall eccentricity and "floatiness" people took my contributions pretty seriously in class.
I really, really understand the whole "falling into magic land." I think the natural escapism is compounded by being sp-last.
And yes to thinking that problems will somehow just solve themselves. This is a *huge* problem of mine. I also have the tendency to secretly think that things that are impossible are actually possible, which is a weird juxtaposition to my really pessimistic SEI nature- it's like I know they won't work but I still think they will. It's really these aspects of my personality that scare me the most, and which I try to keep in check! I want to become that person that can motivate and support myself, get me going, since my standards for a partner are specific and high and I've reached a point in my life experiences where I simply think it's better to not rely on/ hope for idealized outside support.
I have read that article actually. For me, as an so-first 4w5, my social skills are often quite poor so I don't totally agree with that part. But there's a lot that I can relate to in it. I do think I can feel like one of the wishy-washier fours normally and despite my toughness there also is a bit of the "world is too scary/ just don't want to deal." It seems to be a tritype that can feel more of its true force when it manages to clamp down, create structure, and focus a bit (and when it finds reality more interesting than fantasy, just b/c reality is real and therefore more vivid.) And learn how to handle shit. I think it can be quite a powerful type, unleashed, and that the skills it takes to get there are buildable.
Anyway, hope things feel better... In the end, fairyness trumps all.
PS- I have actually literally been described as "fairy-like"! Although my favorite is still "adorable yet tortured." Or maybe, "Luna Lovegood with the good bits of Hermione..."
This describes almost all of the IxFx girls that I've met. I thought that these are traits of sincere communication style I saw something about on this website, or is the 479 tritype very common among IxFx girls?@lemontrees

The smallest responsibility freaks me out and I feel like the world is limiting my freedom and I have the right to do whatever the fuck I want. Very childlish and irresposible really. Maybe we're some sort of eternal children. The 7 fix also causes soo much trouble, the grass is always greener. I get depressed if nothing new and exciting is on the horizon.
Yes, we desperately need reality checks on a daily basis as we're masters of magical thinking that things will just solve themselves somehow. We need people around us who know how to motivate and support us and help us achieve our goals, get us moving.
If you're in the mood to read, I think this description is spot on :

and yes, I secretly adore my fairy ass too
My friend is 4-5-1 IEI and has a much more serious, sullen and snarky demenour, she doesn't have the lightness to her. She also seems more competent and self-assured. 479, 749, 947 is in general probably not that uncommon, but I can't think of a single girl IRL I would type 479 and I know a bunch of IxFx girls. Most of them have 2 or 6 somewhere in their tritype. I think for me, the 7 makes the biggest difference - I score very highly on 7 (9 and 7 are my second and third highest scores and are more or less tied), so I'm much more restless and adventorous than other IxFx girls I know.
IxFx girls in comparison to other types probably always seem more gentle, but I certainly wouldn't describe most of them as escapist, flighty or quirky.
Whoooh! I knew/know a girl who's gotta be Fi-ESI 1w9 154 sp/sx, and yes on all that. Coincidentally, that's the same Enneagram stuff down to the tritype permutation and the stacking as I got for King Crimson's* very own Robert Fripp, who in Socionics I have as Ne-LII:
*King Crimson's "20th Century Schizoid Man" is sampled on Kanye West's song "Power"

lol, I have a guy friend who is 514 sp/sx Ne-LII, really cool guy but can be a real nihilistic downer.
I thought most IEI's were dark/serious/sullen/blah blah.
I think ni subtype is normally that way, and fe subtype more light/flakey/superficial.
I just found this site and I liked the breakdowns. It may have been posted before. I dunno.

Yeah, I type my friend Ni-IEI. Well compared to, for example, SEEs and ESEs, they definitely are dark and serious, even the fe subtype. There's always a lot of darkness, sadness and disturbance right under the (bubbly) surface. The superficiality is only skin deep, if that makes sense.
So what's healthy?
I consider myself pretty damn healthy but I have my "bad" days.
