Tritype has grown on me. I certainly like the idea, if for nothing else the delineation of variation within the same type. I don't know if it has much practical application aside from just decoration though, but I'm keeping my mind open to it. Attaching wings to each type seems a bit superfluous too.
I'm probably 649. The only other possibility is 648, but the more I read about it the less I connect. The more 649 descriptions I read the more embarrassed about myself I get, haha.
Sure, tritypes exist. More than wings do.
Lol I find that's a good way of gauging enneagram type.Originally Posted by Galen
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 think it leaves you with too many subtypes and can be thus be overly complicated, though I do relate to 4-6-8, the truth teller.
A preferred method of interaction and cognition along with innate unconscious drives and aversions, for each the head, image, and gut center? I don't see why this wouldn't make sense/"exist". It's just an extension of the main enneagram type, really.
My Methodology to Tritype and Wings and all that isn't to pick among a large sea of options, but first to choose a single type that fits best (surely not perfectly) then use all these extra subtype and multitype theories to add a more robust characterization of that type to help distinguish you from other people of the same type. It's too overwhelming if you have to choose among all possible tritypes,wings, and instinctual variants.
