How to find your Enneagram Type based on your Myers-Briggs Type

[@AlexanderSy]

When equating MBTI and Enneagram Types, it is important to know that they're based on different approaches. The MBTI focuses on which cognitive faculties a persons prioritises over others (i.e. which of the introverted and extroverted aspects of Intuition, Sensation, Feeling, Thinking they go to first or by default). The Enneagram focuses on one's fixations and also one's adaptive mechanisms to early lessons in life, even trauma, which habituate the mental behaviours of the mind. Given this, the MBTI will inform us on what functions we use, and the Enneagram will inform us on how we inwardly behave in dealing with life issues and situations. Thus, for example, the early life experiences of an INFP would create an Enneagram Type Nine if their values (Fi, introverted feeling) were not valued during childhood. This would incline them repress their sense of valued self and just bend to the desires of others, thus seeking a need to find non-confrontational peace. Alternatively, an INFP, if their valued sense of self was permitted, but they explored these as a lonely child, they may manifest as an Enneagram Type Four (myself, for instance), and thus seek a need to be special. Likewise an ISTJ, who uses the MBTI function of introverted sensing (Si) will seek security, and depending on their early life experiences with trusting themselves or authority figures, could either become a Type One (as you suggested) who will use rules to find security for themselves, or may alternatively become a Type Six and may rely on authority figures to provide a place for safety, even though they'd still be suspicious of them. I'm just saying, as someone who loves and has used both systems for over a decade, that these two wonderful typologies look to different things, and so a type in one will manifest in a number of types in the other, but for different reasons, depending on life experiences. BTW, love your channel...

Thanks for sharing ;) You definitely took it a layer deeper! This video was already well above 20min giving only 1 minute to each Myers-Briggs type, so decided to leave out any complex analysis of the two systems which you describe so thoroughly, and instead kept it light for general KZbin population. But glad you’re starting the convo here in the comments. Oh an glad you like the channel! Thanks again for watching & sharing.

I feel as INFP four then. Though i have a brother

[@SuperYoshikong]

What about the core definition that authors gave enneagram 8 which made sensory motor dominance and impulsivity a core trait? That makes it impossible to have a type 8 who is anything except a Se-dom like ESTP or ESFP

[@sarahjrurka]

I'm an INFP but no idea if I'm a 9 or a 4 I thought I was a 4 but based on your description here, I would be a 9. I scored one point higher on 9 then 4

Great video! Really fun! I’m an INFP 9w1. I used to follow Myers Briggs much more but now I’m waaaay more into the Enneagram as a way to understand myself and others. It’s great seeing how you’ve paired them and the connections you have found.

[@kriannmon]

Same! I've always tested as an INFP since my high school psychology class way back in 1986, and I realized I was a 9 (and more recently a 9w1) about 13 years ago. I skipped up to INFP and he said the first type he linked it with was a 4w5 and then said 9w1, I felt so validated! LOL!

I did first my Brigs Myers and got ENFP but didnt actually dig into it too much and was doing it just for fun. Later in life my mother became an enneagram teacher and she invited me to explore my personality. It really helped me. I figured out almost immediately I was a 4 and probably on the unhealthy-steady level and it gave me tools to figure out what strategies i could use in my favour to live more integrally. Anyhow, in all the years i've been into the enneagram I've always questioned how it related to the Briggs. I just saw this and was amazed that you got my personality in both tools. Thanks for that, was fun seeing you got ot right. Im sure other people have figured it out but you were the one who taught me this. So thankyou!!

I’m a fellow INFJ 1w9, I’m a sp/so. 🤗The funny thing is that when I initially got into MBTI, without any prior knowledge other than a superficial understanding of what each letter meant, I typed myself as a ISTJ which is what he ironically paired to 1w9 in the video lol. Go figure. 😄

[@Hjilbvkfthfhvf]

Yeah... That's the mistype title for you, my friend. You are either a 1w9 or an INFJ, you cannot be both. The type 1 does not go well with a personality that have introverted intuition (Ni) as a dominant function, especially INFJ's, as they have extraverted feeling (Fe) as the auxillary (actually none of the types in the gut triad combine with Ni). I would recommend you to read about the IN(F) and the IN(T) archetypes, as described by Carl Jung. (Also, ENTJ is not a good match with the E8. Do you know witch enneagram actually goes well with an extraverted thinking (Te) dominant (the ExTJ personalities)? The E1 and E3).

Instead, you could try to prove your point of how E1 can be an introverted intuitive dominant - or how every enneagram can be every jungian type, I am here for everything you say. I have to tell you that I don't believe in the extreme of the correlation, I am very open in this regard, but it's a fact that anyone who really reads and interprets E1 correctly and then IN will see that it's not something you should put together.

[@vixxcelacea2778]

I get INTJ more often than anything else. Sometimes INFJ, but mostly INTJ. I have also gotten INFP and INTP in the past. Only consistency I've ever had is IN. Enneagram tests give me 4w5. Or just solidly 4. I've also noted a consistent likely completely bias and pseudoscientific, but weirdly common realization that I'm dichotomic, caught between opposing ideas, thoughts and modes of action. (Often on tests, MBTI, random personality tests, even my zodiac sign(even if it's silly nonsense, it's just funny that it lines up with this bias of mine) I'm right in between or near in between two sides. Even an IQ test I took years ago online and have since taken in real life as part of my psych evaluation said something to the effect of left and right brained, emotional and logical all at once) I know I'm highly emotional, but also extremely centered and regularly talk about objectivity, facts and truths, searching to find them because my aim is emotional well being, as I would assume it is for most people. Also, almost every test I take, I rarely have a hard agree/disagree as I just think of all the various ways that it would depend on the specific situation. Tests are NOT specific enough for my liking, so I answer a lot of middle ground answers. I suppose paralyzed with indecision can be a thing for me, but I feel like it's because it's not specific enough to be answered in truth. I feel like I'm right between 4 and 5 on Enneagram and between INFJ and INTJ. Given that my MBTI doesn't fit with recommended enneagram placements, I really don't know at all now. I suppose however that it also doesn't matter.

[@YouveGotaType]

I would very much recommend watching the Type 6 Video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6OTopWBqtOLoqs I've worked with so many people who describe their experience exactly the way you did, and almost always aligns with 6ness.

I have to say idrlabs's clarifying tests (such "INTP or INTJ") have helped me a lot early on, I would recommend them if ever needed. They're quite old so maybe they have the full panel by now, haven't checked.

[@laurenweiss2249]

Very interesting. My husband is a 9w1, and ISFP so super close for him! I think the description of 9w8 sounded a lot like him too so he could definitely lean into that more than he thinks. I’m an INFJ, 5 with balanced wings. INFJ AND INFP are very similar and it took me a long time to figure out which one I was, so I thought this was pretty accurate for me as well. I also test fairly high for type 1 so all in all I thought you were pretty spot on.

[@YouveGotaType]

Glad to hear it! And thanks for bringing up those similarities. I do find myself often relating to so much of the 5s characteristics (as a 1) myself. And that whole J vs P aspect of myers-briggs has always seemed so contextual to me, because as a 1 I live in J land until I'm feeling secure/integrated in my movement to type 7 enthusiasts, in which case I'm a total P and hate the rigidity of Jness. Anywho! I'm not a believe in any binary system because we humans are far more complex than that - although the MBTI, like everything, has it's time and place. Thanks again for bringing up these nuances!

[@tTheParakeet]

I was having a time deciding between being an INFP or ISFP. Putting into perspective that a 4w5 is likely to be an INFP helps me narrow that down. Thank you! :)

[@themagicianmanifests]

I'd like throw in that INFPs can also be linked to 4w3 (as I myself am one). In my experiences the 3 wing gives me very extraverted desires and goals career wise and my primary number of 4 reigns true to introverted feeling. Great job with the video though and I definitely believe ENFP also work for 4w3 because of our similar cognitive functions!😁✔

Based on your 7's analyze the self above thing look like 5 and 7 also have growth of 5 but 5 got stress of 7 which is scatter. -MBTI: either extroverted INTP or introverted ENTP, enneagram 5 are smart bc of Ti (personal logic and conclusion) (5 are logic) first and Ne (random connection) (7 are also random fun connection) -My deeper analyze and find connection: +INTP and 5w4: 5 stress of 7, 4 growth of 7 (yes more layer in my analyze) so does it make 7 trait of 5w4 balance. +Cognitive function: Ti-Ne-Si-Fe, they're mind first people last, Ti and Si make them look like home body analystic lazy person but assistance of Ne to Ti make the analyze more "scattered from 1 conclusion" +ENTP: 7's and Ne are random kinda look the same, stress of 1 (Imma kinda having problem with my group work and outburst alot lately like you 7's video) and growth of 5's (great analyzer). +Cognitive function: Ne-Ti-Fe-Si, freedom (Ne both thought and do) and hate stable (Si tradition, schedule and facts), Ne-Ti are the one see many things and making sense and connection of everything logically but not very grounded like facts bc they kinda repress or not develop well. Just the way I analyze connection of 5w4 to 7's trait, Ne and Ti pairing are very clear (personal conclusion from connection) and bc I still don't have a clear type and the analyzing random create this madness make me kinda irritating but analyzing for me is fun but this is not ok at all.

[@gert-jantenham672]

Interesting. I used to relate to enneagram sx/sp 8w7 (874). However, according to several sources they (8) are the most motor-sensory dominant of all the enneagram types. Claudio Naranjo described enneagram 8 as correlating with Se-dominant MBTI types (ESFP and ESTP). As a low(er) Se-user I cannot relate to a motor-sensory based enneagram type. Moreover, he (Naranjo) described enneagram 8 as lust-driven and anti-intellectual, which I cannot rhyme with the Rational (NT) temperament. Which is why, nowadays, I relate to sx/sp 7w8 (784). This seems contradictory, but Naranjo did link enneagram 7 to Ni-dominant (specifically INTJ). Lastly, 16Personalities are not the same as the MBTI. They (16P) use a reworked system based on the Big Five (OCEAN or SLOAN). Their site is fun and all, but do not be surprised if they type you differently than the MBTI would. In my case it works, because my MBTI and Big Five preferences strongly correlate. However, if you are an ESTP with slightly above Openness to experience on the Big Five it will mistake you for an ENTP. Alternatively, you can find a description of all the types on the site of MBTIonline. Best regards - ENTJ sx/sp 784 (7w8).

[@YouveGotaType]

Well counterphobic 6s often mistype themselves as 8s, so there's a lot of overlap there in terms of outward aggression. If you don't test as an F on Myers-Briggs, I would wager a guess you may have mistyped. 4s are staunchly located in the Heart triad of the Enneagram and over-identify with their feelings as a trademark characteristic. Also the 4-6 mistype happens all the time, so worth investigating if you're at all open to the possibility.

[@Hjilbvkfthfhvf]

ENTP 8w7 is a pretty unlikely combination, actually, and those who really typed themselves like this are probably a bunch of mistyped ESxP's. E8 is a very sensory oriented type, when compared to the MBTI/Jungian standards and definitions (more specifically an extraverted sensing [Se] type). ENTP fits well in the E7 and 6w7 definitions, as they lead their function stack with extraverted intuition (Ne).

[@YouveGotaType]

Hey there, the enneagram foundationally does not allow for equal splits amongst 3 different types. The basis of the system is having a core motivation, not three core motivations. All types have plenty of characteristics in common, but it takes some serious work to drill down to your most core desires/fears/needs. If you resonate with that many different types, it's far more likely you're a 9 or a 6. Also if you already knew your MBTI type but kept testing yourself over a decade, that also points to Type 6 as they are the most likely to retest themselves over n over again.

I believe Im an 8w7 INTJ people say it doesnt make sense but Ive searched and analyzed i lot both enneagram and mbti and Im sure that Im an INTJ and nothing really fits me other than type 8 in enneagram. Because Im an INTJ some people think Im a 5 but i just the core desires and fears of 5 is so not me. I really tried to improve my functions I believe thats why its complicated like I think Im an 8 but I worked on my feelings a lot so i dont really have problems with that. Im open to ideas tho if you have an opinion please share :)

[@YouveGotaType]

I would say check out the 6 wing 5. Counterphobic 6s act/look similar to 8s and the 5 wing would help explain the I.

[@JIngram-p9h]

ENFP not a 7w6 ?

[@YouveGotaType]

Sure could be. Lots of different MBTIs could be several different enneagram types.

[@Thetruthgirl]

The 2 personality systems are based on totally different things, so they definitely don’t always match up. Myers-Briggs is based on the way people tend to think and act while the enneagram is based on the core motivations that drive people to behave in certain ways. For example I’m a 1w2 ENTJ, my mom is a 2w1 ENTJ, and my dad is a 1w9 INFJ, so we’re all fairly different than what this video says. However, my best friend is a 7w6 ESFP, so that matches.

[@D0J0P]

INTJ 5w4 or ILI 5w4 I believe. Why can't an INTJ be a 5w4 and an INTP 5w6? That technically sounds like it would make the most sense. INTJs have tertiary Fi which is more centered around personal values and authenticity vs INTP's inferior Fe which is based on the emotional atmosphere, which would make sense for them to be more about security than self-expression and individuality. 5 is the core type for both in general.

[@YouveGotaType]

There is no "can't be" here. These are just general connections between behavioral patters to get people started on their enneagram journey if they know their MBTI type. An INTJ and INTP could be either of those types, and more

[@_lil_lil]

15:09 this is funny because I was just told a few days ago on Reddit that I can't be an ENTP and be a 6w7, as ENTPs "can only be 3, 7, or 8" according to them. I thought that it was a silly assertion, to say that this was "impossible" (rather than simply less common) given that these are different systems that measure different things, and that 6 is one of the more versatile types, and could theoretically be perfectly matched with a more introverted and less impulsive ENTP, especially given the 7 wing, so it's good to see that someone whose channel is based around enneagram has confirmed my suspicions. While I still don't know my own type for certain (can one even know this with 100% certainty?), I do like having some evidence that I'm right about this. 🙂

[@YouveGotaType]

I don't understand how Se dom is contradictory to the enneagram 7. What traits are you comparing exactly?

[@BlackyDragon]

@@YouveGotaType I´ve heard stuff like "Sevens are not really tuned into reality but their imagination and ideas, since their excitement towards hypothetic scenarios and possibilities is greater than any other type" which they say is actually more an Ne Dom thing. Now I´m as confused as you I have to say. Since the very beginning I´ve also thinked there´s no better type for the ESFP than 7, but socionics users rely on the subtypes hardly because of their accuracy, and what they mention is that ESFP´s are often mistyped as sevens when they actually are 2´s, 3´s or even 8´s (seems like 8 is an Se dom exclusive type)

[@YouveGotaType]

7s may be excited by their ideas, but they are highly pragmatic people that can accomplish a great deal with almost no resources aside from their enthusiastic energy and undaunted demeanor in the face of resistance. 7's find new possibilities where other people would simply give up. 7s aren't necessarily trusting their intution, they're often just taking blind risks for the thrill of it and then adapting to whatever result comes of it. I tie intuition to an entirely different response to our environment than what 7s are doing. @@BlackyDragon

[@JulsMWK1995]

Interesting video but not most accurate for me. I’m an ISFJ and a 9 (still trying to figure out my wing… probably a 1). Though i will say when I took the Meyers Briggs as a young 20 something year old, I definitely knew I was an I and an F. But my N/S and J/P was a little bit more split closely. However the ISFJ sounded more like me. Now 20+ years later, I’m definitely an S not an N. I think I’m still split between a J and P but J is stronger both naturally and adapting because my husband is a Strong J. I believe my mother was a P which might explain that in my youth I adapted more to her ways. Lastly, you pairing my ISFJ to a 2 w/1… but I’m pretty sure I’m a 9. I have been confused before though. … my original college major was accounting…because I liked numbers and I’m an organized type. I got bored though and ended up choosing social work because I figured I liked helping people. My “F” heart ❤️. However, after doing social work awhile I left and went back to numbers/ working in banking. I kind of like boring after all. Though not completely satisfied. I haven’t found that yet. I do still like helping others sometimes but not really as much as a type 2. As a parent I kind of dread all the volunteer sign up requests for kids activities. I will do out of obligation occasionally but I don’t really enjoy it much. So that’s part why I don’t think I’m a 2 also. However planning family vacations, I think I become more like a 3 or a 2. It’s the highlight of my year! (both the planning and the traveling). My husband thinks I should be a travel planner. My brother is a 9, which I can totally see but at the same time I don’t totally see us the same. We both struggle career wise to do better or figure out our lives, but rest of our lives, I’m more put together than him. I’m tidy, he’s messy, he’s slower to action and I jump on things quicker. I was a B student while he was smarter but worse grades in school because he was lazy. But I’m definitely a 9 who likes to be comfortable too. But I work hard to get all my routines and junk done each day so I can sit and relax afterwards.

I thought every Ne dom is 7, and every 7 is Ne dom. Ne dom are lack of Ti/Fi (as a polr function) that's made us feel the emptiness inside. As a Ne dom, we see the world very mentally not physically way, "world always had something new for us" that's irrationale quotes is very suit for 7,7 is very intuitive ennea for ESTP and ESFP that had Se as a dominant function. Ne dom when healthy, they try to mentally solve the worlds, observe the worlds, how it work (5 grow) but when unhealthy Ne dom can be perfectionis as Si inf unstabilize them, they got haunted by past and don't want to repeat the same mistake again (1 stress). Defense mechanism: rationalism is Ne trait, we question everything what is love? Why the sky is blue? What is normal? And many else, we always want to find a way to describe the world.

Wouldn't ENTPs be an E7? More likely an sp7 and so7? Also counterphobic sixes or (sx6) aren't only "strong and aggressive" they also have feeling that they are alienated with their envviornment and feels the need to go against it. An ENTP wouldn't fit that role due to them being Ne doms and wouldn't have a straightforward or rigid view of their enviornment.

[@Hjilbvkfthfhvf]

So your probably not an ENTP. As this personality type leads with extraverted intuition (Ne), it is pretty unlikely that you would also be one of the most introverted enneagram types. Ne is a pretty remarkable function to have as your dominant, as it almost always create a very outgoing and creative person. Have you ever read about the INTP personality type? They also have Ne, but as they auxillary function. This doesn't remove any of the Ne's creativity, but definitely creates a way more introverted person, just as the 5w4 enneagram. Try to find something on the IT(N) and EN(T) archetypes described by Carl Jung.

[@druidindigo5076]

@@Hjilbvkfthfhvf I use to mistype as an intp because of how withdrawn I am. But I realized that I need and thrive off of human interaction. Debating others literally keeps me going. Sparring with others keeps me growing and other growing. I have a zeal for knowledge and the best way to learn is to have people share their knowledge through a debate of sorts. But because of how withdrawn I can be I often appear as an intp. But really it’s just my reaction to small talk and mundane life. I investigate everything, and am constantly thinking about different things and trying to learn as much as I can. So an Enneagram 5 makes the most sense. Plus the wing 4 also makes sense cuz I have a strong need to be original, to be authentic, and to be unique. In fact if I am not inventing new ideas, or rewriting the script I am usually not content.

[@Hjilbvkfthfhvf]

@@druidindigo5076 I really liked your reply, and the way that you described your discoveries about connecting more with people really sounds to me like an actually healthy INTP. As an archetypical personally type, they can be seen as detached and investigative, but most people definitely forget that we live in a society that requires human interaction and, most importantly, they forget that we cannot let the stereotypes define who we are. Unfortunately, that's exactly what rules over the MBTI community nowadays, lots and lots of stereotypes. I can say for myself that I am probably an ISTJ, but I would never think about this as a possibility if I just used flawed resources, like this 16 personalities site. So yeah, I would tell you that I really like the way you learned to approche interacting with people. Talking about the cognitive functions theory, I affirm that you look like a healthy INTP because what you described to me seems like the extraverted feeling (Fe) cognitive function, wich is the least developed for the majority of INTP's, but can be significantly more visible as they explore more and more their social environment and find their places within people. Still, I recommend you to read "psychological types", by Carl Jung. (I'm sorry if there are any grammatical errors, English is not my first language).
