The whole process of working with the Enneagram to grow and transform is based on observing what’s really happening to us. Self-observation and self-reflection sometimes sound simple, but as a psychotherapist, Beatrice Chestnut knows from working with clients that it doesn’t come naturally to us. People are often very surprised at what they find when they intentionally try to observe something in themselves.

The Enneagram helps point out patterns in our personality that we can intentionally observe. Once we make our unconscious patterns conscious, it’s almost like our personality loses its reason for being. Because the personality is a self-defensive structure, shining a light onto our unconscious patterns makes it easier to eventually work on letting them go.

Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes provide practical ideas about what to do for each of the nine Enneagram types to notice our personality patterns and how to make them more conscious.

Pulling from the theory of Claudio Narajano, Bea and Uranio share some common myths and misconceptions about Enneagram types when subtypes are not understood.

When referring to subtypes, they are not referring to Wings. They use instinctual subtypes, which describe the mix of the passion of the type and dominant instinct, which is either self-preservation, social, or sexual. It is easy to think people of the same type are similar because they share a common passion. However, the dominant instinct influences the passion, and the subtype places a spotlight on the traits that make people different within each type.

For decades, Bea and Uranio studied the instinctual subtypes in-depth, but they also put the subtypes to the test by helping individuals and seeing subtypes work in practice. This is a great episode that can help prevent mistyping and guide people to their distinct growth paths.
