Enneagram No. 9
Enneagram No. 9
Redemptive Characteristics:
A healthy nine is present to themselves, intensely alive and receptive, and patient. They bring people together to resolve conflicts. Instead of numbing themselves to everything around them, they are an active participant in the world. A healthy nine acknowledges their negative emotions and impulses and sacrifices their peace of mind for the satisfaction of genuine relationships.
The idea of an ocean with both calm and rough waters is used in this painting to represent an interruption in the peaceful calm of their mind. Healthy nines are able to sit with hard things and not run from them. The stirring in the ocean also represents them being alive and awake to what is going on. Being in the middle of the crashing waves of conflict shows a healthy nines courageous ability to be fully present in the midst of stress and pain. And the calm waters next to it show their unique ability to resolve conflict through the peace and patience they bring.
