Centres of intelligence
Whether you respond to the world mainly with your body, heart or head, and what that says about your type.
Instinct
Body centre
Centre average 30
The body centre responds to the world by instinct: the first answer comes from the gut, not from deliberation. Its three types share the theme of anger and control - each handles it in its own way.

Feeling
Heart centre
Centre average 36
The heart centre lives the world through emotions and relationships: how it comes across to others matters deeply. Its three types share the question of self-worth - and the image they build of themselves.

4 · The Romantic
Your centre · thinking
Head centre

05
Your wing
The neighbouring type that blends with your primary type and gives it a shade of its own.
Dominant wing · 58 pts
Type 6 · The Skeptic
7w6
A 6 wing grounds you: you plan with a safety net and are more loyal and dependable than Sevens are given credit for. But under the humour there is sometimes an unadmitted anxiety.
Weaker wing · 19 pts
Type 8 · The Protector
7w8
An 8 wing adds assertiveness: you know what you want and go straight for it, no detours. The risk is impulsive overshooting - at work, in pleasures and in words.
06
Motivation, fear and desire
What drives you forward, what you fear and what you long for deep down.
Motivation
To be free and satisfied. To experience what the world has to offer and miss nothing that matters.
Fear
Being trapped in pain and deprivation. Being stuck somewhere with no enjoyable way out.
Desire
Freedom and fulfilment. A life worth living - now, not someday.
07
Strengths and weaknesses
The same trait that is your strength easily flips into a weakness under stress.
Strengths
Energy and optimism that infect the whole room.
You think fast, connect distant ideas, and can mine even a disaster for a story and a lesson.
People feel good around you - and heavy things lift more easily with you there.
What to work on
You dodge the unpleasant so skilfully it looks like a lifestyle: pain gets reframed, commitments stay open, and half-finished projects pile up.
You hand out promises more easily than you keep them, and depth keeps losing to novelty.
FOMO is your quiet boss.
08
Growth and stress
The enneagram also maps where your type moves when things go well, and where it slips under pressure.
Growth direction
→ Type 5 · The Analyst
Your growth path points to Type 5: slowing down, going deep and staying with one thing. You will find that real freedom is not keeping every option open - it is being able to choose.
How to tell you are growing
You finish one thing before opening the next.
You last a quiet evening at home - and actually enjoy it.
You go deep where you used to just taste.
Under stress
→ Type 1 · The Perfectionist
Under stress you slide toward Type 1: lightness flips into irritable criticism, you find fault with everything and tighten the screws on yourself and everyone else. A signal that you are running from something that wants to be felt.
How to tell you are under stress
The lightness is gone and everything annoys you.
You hunt for faults - in yourself and everyone else.
You tighten the screws where you used to wave things off.
09
Relationships and career
How your type shows up in close relationships and where it tends to shine at work.
Relationships
You are a fun, generous partner, and life with you does not go stale. The risk: hard conversations get postponed, and when the relationship stops being fun, your eyes start to wander. But depth is born exactly where you stay even when it is no fun - and pain is meant to be felt, not skipped.
Career
You excel where ideas and pace are valued: marketing, media, entrepreneurship, innovation, events, travel, creative strategy. Beware of routine and lonely detail work - and keep someone around who finishes things.

How to get along with you
Tips for the people around you: what you need from them and what to avoid when dealing with you.
For the people around you
1
Keep serious talks short and concrete - long post-mortems shut them down.
2
Give them freedom and novelty; a cage does not calm them, it spooks them.
3
When they escape into fun, ask what they are running from - often they do not know.
4
Do not mock their enthusiasm - it is how they lift you too.
11
Well-known people of your type

This test is for self-discovery purposes and does not replace professional psychological assessment.
The enneagram is a popular self-awareness typology, not a validated psychometric method. Treat the result as a map of motivations and a prompt for reflection - the comparison between types is approximate.
