The Enneagram is a basic personality test with nine different categories of personalities numbered 1 through 9. Each number represents a different personality type. Each personality type of the Enneagram has unique characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, motivations, and fears.

The Enneagram is a helpful tool for people to understand themselves and the people in their lives. The Enneagram shows a range of healthy to unhealthy behaviors that each personality type might demonstrate unconsciously. Each personality type has its own underlying motivation that describes why people might do the things that they do whether it is consciously or unconsciously. In healthy states, individuals are able to use the skills and gifts that are specific to their personality type in order to help others. In unhealthy or stressed states, individuals might not be able to access their natural gifts as easily. As individuals understand more about their personality type, they are able to develop ways of recognizing stressors and unconscious reactions that might be inhibiting them from using their natural gifts within the world.

The Enneagram can help improve people's skills as it can provide an understanding of diverse ways of thinking and feeling about certain situations. Everybody processes circumstances and events through different ways of judging and perceiving. The Enneagram can help bring a layer of empathy, grace, and compassion as it opens doors for understanding others with different characteristics.
