The Enneagram and Your Rising Sign

[@zenwahine2]

Hi I have just seen u today for the first time. I didn’t know anything about my enneagram type. Hmmmm….freedom, beauty, will have to work out my enneagram. This video is fascinating. Subscribed ✔️

This video was so interesting and I liked seeing angles of these rising signs that I might not've associated immediately with some of those Enneagram numbers. I'm a 4 (451 tritype) and my rising is Aquarius, which I feel relates to the individualistic and iconoclastic energy that 4 and 5 create often together. I have my Chiron in Taurus, though!

Glad you enjoyed the episode and glad it’s gotten you to make new associations! I agree about 4s also having Aquarian qualities! Yes! Thanks for commenting!

Very interesting. I think my main point of conditioning is 4 but I relate to the 9 and 5 as well. Interestingly, my moon is in Cancer and I have a Libra rising which you mentioned the 4 and 9 explicitly in relationship to these signs in the moon and AC

Glad the episode got you thinking! If you lead with 4 you may have a 5 wing since you relate to some of the 5. And 4s can often seem like 9s. The key difference I’d say is 9s don’t care about being unique while 4s do. Thanks commenting!

First time here! Very interesting. I would not have thought of mixing enneagrams with rising signs. For your added knowledge, I am a # 2 with Libra rising. Keeping my giving: people pleasing, in balance. Being pleasant to go with people pleasing. As an aside I discovered along the line, that my two spouses (I’m currently 74.). Are my wings: first spouse was a #8 - very bossy and my beloved second ( & current) spouse is a # 4: romantic with abandonment issues. So I view my Libra rising as helping me keep these two tendencies of mine in balance. Love the freshness of this new, to me, framework of looking at personality.

Glad you found the episode interesting and that you see the correlations between your enneagram and your rising sign. Interesting connections you've made too between your 8 and 4 lines and your spouses! Thanks for commenting!

I’m a 497 tritype and I’m Cap rising Scorpio sun and an Aquarius moon. I also have a Libra stellium so maybe that’s the nine. Very interesting video

[@mariamandarino-wisdom-teacher]

Glad you enjoyed it and it got you thinking. I would agree on the 9 and the Libra stellium. Thanks for commenting!

What about Pisces rising?

[@mariamandarino-wisdom-teacher]

Since I focused on the types first, there were only 9 signs I covered. But I’d lean toward Type 9 for Pisces Rising… there’s the dissolving of boundaries and of course Type 9 wants to merge. So there is similarity. But remember this is not a one for one approach since we have 9 types and 12 signs. This isn’t an exact science, but an approach meant to make us stretch and find new ways to understand who we are. Hope that helps!

I'm a 4 (w5) and I don't necessarily see that strong a connection with the Taurus rising... The 4 is a heart type, it's community oriented. Taurus is an earth sign, "community" isn't exactly one of its top priorities. I would have guessed Leo or Aquarius for the 4, since they do care about the way they present themselves and how much they stand out or blend in with the crowd. Now, I am a _solar_ Taurus, but that's the part of me that wants to be left alone so I can do my own thing at my own pace (which is a very 4 thing, for sure)... But my Leo moon + rising are the ones pushing me towards seeking authentic and meaningful connections with others. And also, I'm currently wearing my hair purple, which is a stereotypical marker for both the Enn4 _and_ the Leo rising. I promise I began dying it before I learnt about any of these things LOL (all I knew was my 'zodiac sign' and I HATED it) Thank you for the video!

[@mariamandarino-wisdom-teacher]

Thanks so much for your observations and expanding the conversation! Taurus is an Earth sign, but ruled by Venus, and so the sign is deeply tied to beauty, nature, elegance, value. So that’s the thread I pulled there for the 4. But I agree with you about Leo, especially the hair! I wonder though about the Fire of Leo (maybe more 4w3? Yet the Leo pride can also speak to 4w2). Subtypes will count for a lot on this one. And I can see Aquarius as well… 4s are so innovative and have a unique vision for humanity. So yes! Some good observations! Thanks for commenting!
