Enneagram Type 9

Nines belong to the Body Centre. They are motivated to create harmony in their environment, avoid tension and preserve the flow of things with minimal disruption. Nines are devoted to sustaining inner and outer peace, both for themselves and those whom they connect with. While they are easy-going and calm, their avoidance of conflict and suppression of anger results in a slow-burn anger which can manifest itself in stubbornness or passive-resistance. They do have strong opinions which can go unexpressed until you ask. They are others-centred and can work hard on behalf of others, but when it comes to advocating for themselves, they frequently find it hard to express their opinions or take the right action.
