I don’t usually post all these personality test type of things, but I stumbled upon this one recently (thanks, Beth!) that I thought nailed me pretty good. In only two questions. Crazy, scary accurate (with a dew exceptions as usual). This seems to be the consensus of almost everyone I know who took the test. Yes, I know it could just all be coincidence, standard disclaimer, bogus, blah, blah, blah. So, get to know me! Also see the link in Beth’s comment to a much more in depth description of my results.
Apparently I’m a 9 which means:
The Peacemaker
Test finished! |
you chose BX – your Enneagram type is NINE.
“I am at peace”
Peacemakers are receptive, good-natured, and supportive. They seek union
with others and the world around them.
How to Get Along with Me
- If you want me to do something, how you ask is important. I especially
don’t like expectations or pressure.
- I like to listen and to be of service, but don’t take advantage of this.
- Listen until I finish speaking, even though I meander a bit.
- Give me time to finish things and make decisions. It’s OK to nudge
me gently and nonjudgmentally.
- Ask me questions to help me get clear.
- Tell me when you like how I look. I’m not averse to flattery.
- Hug me, show physical affection. It opens me up to my feelings.
- I like a good discussion but not a confrontation.
- Let me know you like what I’ve done or said.
- Laugh with me and share in my enjoyment of life.
What I Like About Being a Nine
- being nonjudgmental and accepting
- caring for and being concerned about others
- being able to relax and have a good time
- knowing that most people enjoy my company; I’m easy to be around
- my ability to see many different sides of an issue and to be a good
mediator and facilitator
- my heightened awareness of sensations, aesthetics, and the here and
now
- being able to go with the flow and feel one with the universe
What’s Hard About Being a Nine
- being judged and misunderstood for being placid and/or indecisive
- being critical of myself for lacking initiative and discipline
- being too sensitive to criticism; taking every raised eyebrow and twitch
of the mouth personally
- being confused about what I really want
- caring too much about what others will think of me
- not being listened to or taken seriously

There’s a much more detailed description of type Nine here: http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/TypeNineOverview.asp
Nines are good people! My Daddy’s a Nine, as are Tara and Kaylee.
Wow.
That was spot on for me.
I’m an AX, or a 7, The Adventurer.
I feel so much closer to 11.11% of the world now.
Wow! that is creepy!
I am apparently an 8 “the Asserter” and it knew things about me people have never really clued into before.
For a 2 question/ 6 answer quiz that thing is pretty darn good. Probably the closest personality quiz I have ever taken.
I’m a 2 “The Helper”, pretty much spot on, but it wasn’t hard to guess that anyway.
