Fursonas and the Enneagram

NovaMetatail

~Longing For Wings~
The Enneagram is a personality profile system, using numbers 1-9 as types, and each type also has a "wing", which is an extension into another type. I want to see if fursona species relate in any way to personality types. Please take this quiz, the first: http://www.eclecticenergies.com/enneagram/dotest.php (yes, it is long), and note your result, as well as your species and gender/gender identity. I will request, for once, that people remain serious about this. It's just easier for me to sift through. I'm really curious about the results!


Personally, I'm a female western dragon. My Enneagram type is 4w3.

I got a tie on type 9 and 5, with 4 & 8 tied very close behind. My wing things were mentioned "4w5 or 5w4 or 9w8."
And if it matters, which it likely does not in this post, I am INTJ.
I have my own species, but we can sum it up to a Reindeer female.

And I think that is all, unless I missed something <XD;; oh well~

Personality type 9: the Peacemaker, wing type 1: the Reformer.

My 'sona is a male black wolf.

The test gave me a 5, the investigator. When wings are taken into account, I got a 5w6.

Gryphon, ambiguous-ish male, predominantly 4w5 with 7w6 close behind, but really a little of everything.

I predict we'll see a lot of 4s between the fringe element and the art-centric culture around here. ^_~

I brought up the topic in group chat for a small con my husband and I attended recently. I was surprised how few 4’s and 5’s we had. It seemed like a lot of 8’s, 9’s, 1’s, and 2’s. Mistyping is always a strong possibility when using online assessments though.

Tests on the internet are not typically great yardsticks, they're more for amusement
Though consistency in results is always a little interesting to me

A good rule of thumb for the Enneagram is to take an online test and examine your top 3 results deeply in order to see what feels accurate. Also, if you are past your 20’s, it is good to think about who you were during those years.

I have a hard time taking most internet tests really seriously, especially personality-focused ones, but I consider myself such a terrible evaluator of my own personality that I tend to seek external evaluations

That said, internet tests are strangely amusing/fascinating for some reason, and assuming I have the free time I usually take them when presented for shiggles (the IQ test result was pretty amusing, something like ~121 overall, ~105 memory, ~150 verbal, ~120 spatial, I couldn't stop laughing at the result and I really have no idea why)
