Beatrice Chestnut - Type 6 Enneagram Panel 

my 2 best friends are 6's! 7 here.

I am a self preservation 5 with sexual 6 wing. The way the guy describes literally envisioning possible, often dangerous outcomes in an instant flash of insight is spot on and really centers these people within an intuitive process that is usually extremely accurate. The deep need as a 5 to protect sovereignty with an intuitive, sexual 6 wing makes for an aggressive protectionist who subconsciously amasses data with predictive outcomes resulting in jokingly "psychic" ability at times and who can largely instantly read people without knowing them first but who is also capable of becoming irrationally paranoid and untethered during times of duress. Sort of blown away, actually and enjoy that the Enneagram is more dynamical than other rigid personality type exploration into features of the self.

as a 6 i watch scary movies and laugh at them. Never thought of this, but maybe its because I think theyre so stupid for not being prepared that I expect whats going to happen. But personally I dont choose to watch scary movies in my free time.

Shannon, this reminds me that, as a six, I felt weirdly relieved (and also lots of other feelings) when the pandemic hit because I felt like other people might finally know the level of fear of illness I live with all the time as a six! Your scary movie observation feels spot-on :)

@@skyekerrlevy6551 My son is a six so I appreciate insight from other sixes so I can understand him better.

I’m not sure if I’m A 6 but I love true crime. I like to be aware of what people are capable of. Plus there’s something satisfying about watching true crime from the comfort and safety of my locked up house.

@@deborahbrannan3923 Very interesting. Thanks for replying!

This makes me not feel so alone.

I had the same; now I finally know that I really am a 6 ( and not a 5 or a 1 or a 9 ;-) )

Keep your head up, keep the faith in Christ, we are strong

That's ironic, I felt it was the worst panel I've listened to

Same. I have some much existential anxiety, but in the moment of danger (and after), I'm really not fearful at all. It's bizarre.

Yes i agree as another 6

There is a problem if you dont experience your feelings...you are numbing out.

Same here!

This is a constant feeling. And I’m creeped out that we share the same first name.

That really hit me too. I absolutely feel that way metaphorically and literally when I'm in traffic!

Yep, lol. Me to

He is cute!

His hijack plan

6 with ADHD! Yes

makes us 3 perhaps

Same

I can relate so much to a 5...I’m questioning which one I am all the time. But this makes me feel like a 6, but I am too like “if I’ve decided you’re trash, everything you touch is also trash...”

I understand your point, but she never mentioned the character of the author. I would think she was referring to the author's body of work, which is still her subjective opinion. As well, one could still miss out on valid points.

I, as a six wouldn’t say this. Okay, I would as a joke but I would never try to deny you of something that you may enjoy.

Thanks for joining us

I was a correctional officer for many years. 6 very suitable because it is a job of observation

I am 6w5 with (I believe a 9w8) and my siblings have all said we are the only people for each other because no one else could handle us 😂😂 I've found that the sense of calm and security i get from my partner's 9 qualities has helped me move toward 9 immensely and stop my constant planning and anxiety toward the unknown a lot

Wouldn't take it anyway ... Gonna get scammed and shipped of from organ traders ... Or just rob him ... Or Hack something ... Yeah I'll stop ... just from the standpoint of a 6 that not yet found the way to deal with it or work with it ... Sometimes but not reliable ... Nice either way ^^

Could they be 9’s?

They’re anything but laid back.

We're quiet and reserved, taking it all in... and therefore look very laid back. I've often been told this.

Same!

Are u 6 or 4 ?

@@MsAliensex I’m a 5w6

Did you take the test?? Check your wings

Lol. Mine is 8, with karmic lesson 8, between being an INFP and self-pres 6, closely followed by a 9 in a tritype, imagine my skepticism of that working in any sort of traditional way. ...Which I guess, from an enneagram point of view does make sense with the 3 being point of disintegration/integration for both top numbers, but in a useless if you don't, one slip of not being on all the time, and you are a monster, way. -_-' But again, for an INFP - 8 is ridiculous.

I am a 6 and my life path is 9

ROCK ZTAR for the 8 they can be.. for the 6 it can be really difficult and suffocating. It depends on the health of the 8 and 6 honestly. 8s in my life tend to be the kind who break spirits and don’t care about others feelings

I also am a chronic ruiner of things lol

I identify with all facets of my 6ness. I get into my 5 and 7 wings not one over the other, I am CP and PH it just depends on the situation, my feelings before the occurrence, the people involved etc. I can’t say I’m one type of 6.

The over prepared thing can be a bit overblown honestly. Especially if you’re SP blind

Nahh, he’s a 1w9. However, the rendition that planned on how to defeat each justice league member could be one lol

No better or worse than any other match. If you're both self aware, and willing to meet the needs of the other, whilst not compromising your own too much, any match can work (be it for friendships, romantic relationships or anything in between).

As (I think I’m a social) a 6, I adore 8s and I actually attract them. Where others find them overwhelming and mean, I find them refreshingly authentic and necessary in a world full of chaos.

Be really healthy or unhealhy, depending on which is your actual number? :P I have 6 and 9 in a tritype, so acting assertive is a real minefield for me. I either bypass my inhibitions and finally get the shit done feeling uplifted (which doesn't last long anyway, since not all of us build to be someone else forever), or fail miserably at it with some trappings of an unhealthy 3.

FlamesAndShadows sounds like me are you a 6?

Because she is an 8?!?

She comes off as an 8 to me

@@paisleyprincess7996 Good point. Since I am a 6, I could relate to the other 6's on the panel, but not the lady in the middle. Maybe the reason is that she is an 8. Her demeanor kind of gives me the creeps. She even tell her husband he's not allowed to have chick-fil-a.

@@Sexxxyism She tells her man he can’t have Chick Fil le. Him actually abiding by her gives ME the creeps. I’m an 8, and I have that same energy…Like fast energy.

She's probably just type 6 one on one subtype since it's the countertype and commonly mistyped as an 8. And Chic Fil A is fast food. She also said she and her husband were both recovering. Given that he's male with alcohol abuse history he's already at higher risk of heart problems, which fast food isn't good for. So I didn't see her comment on him as controlling so much as just helping keeping him accountable, like an accountabilabuddy 🤷‍♀️
