PersonalityCafe Enneagram Quiz (New!)

Hi everyone! I'm happy to announce that the PersonalityCafe Enneagram Quiz is officially released and available in the top right corner of your screen. (Click the test tubes above the search box and you'll find it.)

A few months ago, I figured that users shouldn't have to hunt around for good personality tests online. I noticed that when it comes to Enneagram, most tests gave you cryptic results without much interpretation, such as displaying a list of scores that were probably of little help when it comes to understanding what type you are. My test is designed to calculate your full tri-type with wings.

Obviously, no online test will be better than introspection & discussion, but many beta testers reported that the quiz accurately reported their entire tri-type with wings. So I'm confident that this test can be a definite help, especially if you're uncertain about your Enneagram type. While developing the questions for the quiz, I used some of the principles that I discussed in my article "The Freudian Theory of Enneagram" that I wrote earlier this month.

This was actually my first time coding in PHP, but it's extremely similar to C so it went very smoothly. The actual coding portion only took a few days.

Anyway, give the test a shot. I hope you'll find it as accurate as the testers did.

One more thing: I'm currently developing a Cognitive Function test. Expect it soon!

Great quiz!

I got:

You are a Type 5 with a 4 wing: "The Iconoclast"

Your tritype is 5w4, 4w5, 1w9


I usually get 4w5, but this is fine too.

You are a Type 5 with a 6 wing: "The Scientist"

i don't know

You are a Type 7 with an 8 wing: "The Realist"

Your tritype is 7w8, 4w5, 1w9.

Eh. If anyone asks, I say that I'm 3w4 or 4w3, 1omni, and 7w8. Close enough.

Kudos to you, sir. Too often, I've seen enneagram tests that give the results as an index of scores for how the tester relates to each type. Yes, but so what? Many people taking enneagram tests are beginners looking for a starting point and want to know what these numbers mean.

You are a Type 5 with a 4 wing: "The Iconoclast"


Your tritype is 5w4, 9w8, 3w4.

In enneagram theory, you have one type for how you relate to the world (either 8, 9, or 1), one type for how you think (5, 6, 7) and one type for how you see yourself (2, 3, 4.) Your tri-type contains one number from each of these triads. They are listed in the order of how strongly they present in your personality.

Your core type (your strongest type) is Type 5 with a 4 wing: Type Five individuals are cerebral, intelligent, and complex. Type Five is often called the Investigator type, because they are constantly trying to learn more about the world. To a Five, knowledge is power, and knowing more about the world around them makes the world a safer place. It’s common for a Five to withdraw into their own thoughts and ruminate on intricate ideas and concepts. Type Fives, when they are in a growth state, become self-confident and authoritative like a Type Eight. When they are stressed, Type Fives become scattered like an unhealthy Type Seven. You are a Type Five with a Four wing, which means that the cerebral nature of Type Five combines with the creative nature of a Type Four. For this reason, you are likely to challenge established ideas with new and fresh concepts.

Your second type (your next strongest type) is Type 9 with a 8 wing: Nines are receptive, easygoing, and loveable. Out of all the types in the Enneagram, they have a special ability to get along with others. For this reason, they’re often skilled mediators, resolving conflicts both within themselves and among others. Nines value peace, especially inner peace, very highly. When in a state of growth, Nines become energetic and driven like Type Threes. When stressed, Nines become anxious like an unhealthy Type Six. You are a Type Nine with an Eight wing, which means that the harmonious traits of the Nine merge with the aggressive traits of the Eight. Inner peace is your goal, but if something is challenging that peace, your Eight wing means that you’ll stand up and deal with the situation assertively and decisively.

Your third type (the least-used of the three) is Type 3 with a 4 wing: Type Three individuals are self-assured, confident, and driven for success. Type Threes have a great deal of energy that propels them to excel at their chosen field, and this is why the type is often called The Achiever. Although Threes may not always like it, they’re often looked up to. Type Threes, more than any other type, are the most likely to be a workaholic. When in a state of growth, Threes become more cooperative and trusting of others, like a Type Six. When stressed, Threes become withdrawn like a Type Nine. You are a Type Three with a Four wing, which means that your energetic nature is tempered by a Four tendency to withdraw, which gives you a sense of calm that others often lack.

Some words that describe you: relaxed, peaceful, harmonious, ambitious, driven, adaptable, energetic, intelligent, cerebral, questioning.

I think I am answering incorrectly because of my lack of sleep. Or I could have typed myself incorrectly. Because the Tri Type is practically correct.

I was excited that there's an enneagram test but unfortunately, it's not true for me at all...

Your tritype is 6w5, 1w2, 3w4.

Only a few certain things but still.
Nothing is perfect i suppose but great work.

Great quiz Timeless! When I was talking through enneagram theory a while back to determine my type we ended up figuring out that my core type was 9w1 but I didn't really know about tri-types at the time, which is why this especially caught my eye. Turns out 9w1 is that the result I got from your quiz, which is pretty cool. You did a great job on this! I think my tri-type result is pretty spot on :)

You are a Type 9 with a 1 wing: "The Dreamer"

Your tritype is 9w1, 5w4, 2w1.

Your core type (your strongest type) is Type 9 with a 1 wing: Nines are receptive, easygoing, and loveable. Out of all the types in the Enneagram, they have a special ability to get along with others. For this reason, they’re often skilled mediators, resolving conflicts both within themselves and among others. Nines value peace, especially inner peace, very highly. When in a state of growth, Nines become energetic and driven like Type Threes. When stressed, Nines become anxious like an unhealthy Type Six. You are a Type Nine with a One wing, which means that the harmonious traits of the Type Nine merge with the idealistic nature of the Type One. You have an idealized view of the world, and your drive toward harmony is one way to fulfill that dream.

Your second type (your next strongest type) is Type 5 with a 4 wing: Type Five individuals are cerebral, intelligent, and complex. Type Five is often called the Investigator type, because they are constantly trying to learn more about the world. To a Five, knowledge is power, and knowing more about the world around them makes the world a safer place. It’s common for a Five to withdraw into their own thoughts and ruminate on intricate ideas and concepts. Type Fives, when they are in a growth state, become self-confident and authoritative like a Type Eight. When they are stressed, Type Fives become scattered like an unhealthy Type Seven. You are a Type Five with a Four wing, which means that the cerebral nature of Type Five combines with the creative nature of a Type Four. For this reason, you are likely to challenge established ideas with new and fresh concepts.

Your third type (the least-used of the three) is Type 2 with a 1 wing: Type Two individuals are generous and kind. Twos love others and want to be loved, and becoming close to others is a theme in the life of the Two. This is why Two is often referred to as the Helper type – because they keep coming, time and time again, to the aid of others. Out of all the types in the Enneagram, Twos are the most likely to help someone when they’re feeling down or when they’re being attacked. When a Type Two is stressed, they can become aggressive like an unhealthy Type Eight. When they’re healthy, a Type Two becomes emotionally aware like a healthy Type Four. You are a Type Two with a One wing, which means that the helpful nature of the Two combines with the idealistic nature of the One to make a very humanitarian personality.

Can't wait for your cognitive functions test! ^_^

You are a Type 9 with a 1 wing: "The Dreamer"


Your tritype is 9w1, 4w5, 6w5.

In enneagram theory, you have one type for how you relate to the world (either 8, 9, or 1), one type for how you think (5, 6, 7) and one type for how you see yourself (2, 3, 4.) Your tri-type contains one number from each of these triads. They are listed in the order of how strongly they present in your personality.

Your core type (your strongest type) is Type 9 with a 1 wing: Nines are receptive, easygoing, and loveable. Out of all the types in the Enneagram, they have a special ability to get along with others. For this reason, they’re often skilled mediators, resolving conflicts both within themselves and among others. Nines value peace, especially inner peace, very highly. When in a state of growth, Nines become energetic and driven like Type Threes. When stressed, Nines become anxious like an unhealthy Type Six. You are a Type Nine with a One wing, which means that the harmonious traits of the Type Nine merge with the idealistic nature of the Type One. You have an idealized view of the world, and your drive toward harmony is one way to fulfill that dream.

Your second type (your next strongest type) is Type 4 with a 5 wing: Type Four individuals are intensely emotionally aware, and often retreat to their rich inner world of concepts and ideas. They are the most artistic type in the Enneagram and driven to create their own, unique identity. Type Fours value authenticity highly and express themselves whenever they can. They are one of the most individualistic types in the Enneagram. Type Fours, when in a state of growth, become principled like Type Ones. When stressed, Type Fours can become clingy like an unhealthy Type Two. You are a Type Four with a Five wing, which means that the individualist nature of a Four combines with the cerebral nature of a Five to make you one of the most creative types in the Enneagram.

Your third type (the least-used of the three) is Type 6 with a 5 wing: Type Six individuals are reliable, committed, and security-oriented. They are natural troubleshooters, and are always aware of potential problems. This makes the Type Six anxious, but the anxiety fuels them to resolve their problems. They can range from loyal to rebellious, depending on where they get their security from – if the security is from within, they can be very defiant… if it comes from others, they can be very cooperative and devoted. When a Type Six is in a growth state, they become calm like a Type Nine. When they are stressed, they can become arrogant like an unhealthy Type Three. You are a Type Six with a Five wing, which means that the committed nature of the Six combines with the cerebral nature of the Type Five. As a result, you often excel at concrete thinking and troubleshooting.

That sounds about right. ^^
