When it comes to merging these two major typology systems: Myers-Briggs and the Enneagram, there is no “one size fits all” method. Truly any type combination is possible making not just 16 personalities or 9 personalities, but 144 different expressions!
Each typology system offers incredible personal insight but is incomplete on its own: where Myers-Briggs delves deeply into cognitive functions and how intricately the brain learns and processes information, the Enneagram offers insight into emotional health, childhood experiences, and basic driving human instincts. Using these typology systems in conjunction will not only give you a better understanding of yourself as a person, but will help shape your relationships and guide you toward a more successful and happy future!
Below you can find a description of the three common Enneagram types for INFJs.
INFJ Two “The Helper”
INFJ Twos care deeply about people and want to support their loved ones as they become their best selves. They pour a lot of time and attention into nurturing their close relationships and subsequently tie much of their identity in with how well those relationships are going. INFJ Twos are incredibly warm and want other people to feel comfortable at all costs. They may be more in touch with their auxiliary Extroverted Feeling/Fe compared to other INFJs and should pay careful attention to developing their tertiary Introverted Thinking/Ti function in order to introduce logical reasoning to their otherwise heart-driven ideals.
INFJ Four “The Individualist”
INFJ Fours desire uniqueness and depth in their identity and relationships. Given that the INFJ personality type is so rare, these individuals may feel as though rarity is a natural part of their identity. The natural privacy of INFJs will be even more evident in the INFJ Four as they may act guarded and open up to very few. These types are on a quest to discover their true selves and unearth secret meanings in the world around them. INFJ Four should be careful not to succumb to Ni-Ti loops and pay special attention to developing and exercising Fe.
INFJ Nine “The Peacemaker”
INFJ Nines spend much of their time in their auxiliary Extroverted Feeling/Fe function and will pursue harmony and cooperation within their relationships. The typical “merging” that many Enneagram Nines experience coincides with an INFJ’s Introverted Intuition and Extroverted Feeling functions working together to absorb the emotional energy of others and feel them as their own. INFJ Nines, like INFJ Twos should spend time and attention developing their tertiary Ti function in order to maintain a balanced and informed point of view. They are agreeable, cooperative, harmonious, and encouraging.
