Enneagram Type 6

Motto: “I want safety.”

At your core, you seek support and security above all, driven by the fear of being left without guidance and unable to handle life on your own. Because you belong to the thinking triad, you struggle to trust your own inner voice: you think a great deal, question even more, and look outside yourself for authorities, systems and allies that offer firm ground. This mix makes you a bundle of contradictions, at times brave and at times fearful, believing and skeptical by turns, able to defend causes and people with rare loyalty. Anxiety walks beside you, yet it also sharpens your vigilance, letting you foresee problems and tend to what needs doing. Your growth begins when you stop outsourcing certainty and discover that the support you were seeking was already available within you.
