Enneagram & Awareness

This portal is part of a threefold structure of Leadership in Love.

This portal is devoted to awareness.

The Enneagram as a living wisdom.

The Enneagram helps us see, how we loose presence, and how we return to it.

Here, the Enneagram is used as a map —
not to define who you are,
but to illuminate how perception moves, how reactions form,
and how choice becomes possible.

This work supports self-observation without self-criticism,
discernment instead of automatic reaction,
and responsibility for one’s inner life.

The Enneagram in short - Ancient wisdom in modern times.

  • The Enneagram is an ancient sacred symbol. It is regarded as about 5000 years old. 

  • It was originally meant for spiritual people to remind them of how we as humans fall out of presence.

  • In modern times, typology has been applied to the symbol.

  • Each number on the circle corresponds to a certain archetypal behavior and identity.

  • The numbers refer to a distinct personality type described in detail by Don Riso & Russ Hudson.

  • Many psychiatrists and psychotherapists find it very helpful as a tool to work with their clients.

  • From each number/personality type, arrows flow to two other points on the circle, indicating the direction of stress and the direction of growth.

  • Together with the circle, the arrows form a triangle and a hexagon. These are fundamental symbols of the sacred "Laws" of the Enneagram.

  • The Enneagram is very helpful for revealing and understanding more about our unconscious drivers, both bodily, emotionally, and cognitively. For this reason, many people feel they finally get a map to help them orient their unconscious mind.

The Enneagram as a map of Self-discovery

This work supports self-observation without self-criticism,
discernment instead of automatic reaction,
and responsibility for one’s inner life.

This is not personality optimization.


It is awareness work — patient, precise, and humane.

"I support people in seeing clearly —

because change follows seeing."

Awareness changes everything - not by force, but by clarity,
