Enneagram 8 Subtypes Explained

Social 8 "Complicity"

As the Counter-type of Enneagram 8 this subtype looks to fight for others and find strength in the connection with other individuals. Unlike the other subtypes of E8 they conceptualize power as a thing to be shared and enjoyed by others. This subtype is usually attracted to leader roles in which they can help others get equal treatment. This subtype tends to have a softer and less aggressive edge than the other 8s which may cause them to look like 1s or 7s.

Characters: Leia Organa, Gon, Esmeralda, Luffy, Thomas Shelby, Samantha Wilkins, Damien Wayen and Korra.

Self Preservation 8 "Survival"

The most 8 of all 8s; this subtype is focused on getting what they want. For them it's about always having the last word and doing as they please. From this description they may sound a bit like an Sp7 however, unlike the Sp7 its not about doing so because its fun or enjoyable to them but rather because its about what they want (or because they can). This subtypes can be viewed as rebellious, uncaring and unrelenting on their approach to life. It's impossible to mistype them as they usually are very on the nose about their reasoning (if you have difficulty telling them apart from SX4 and SX6 then simply make reference to the core desire of the former types).

Characters: Wolverine, Vi, Soldier Boy, Faith Lehane, Katherine Pierce, Bakugou, Nobara Kugisaki, Kazuya Mishima.

Sexual 8 "Possession"

This 8s carves nothing more than to create a strong emotional connection. They are like the inverse of a SX2; the SX8 looks to find someone who they can show their control and strength to. The intensity of desire is for the SX8 is of most importance. It's about what having that intense emotional attachment to that gives them the sense of strength and power they crave. However, unlike the SX2 they DONT look to please their partners needs or filter themselves for them.

Characters: Inuyasha, Anakin Skywalker, Rogue, Power, Nancy Downs, Ko Moon-Young, Tyler Durden and Nate Jacobs.

Can I please request a MBTI Type, Big Three, Enneagram Type and Moral Alignment for Hope Mikaelson (The Originals) please?

Hi there, I hope you like this a lot!

Hope Mikaelson's MBTI Type, Big Three, Enneagram Type and Moral Alignment

MBTI Type: ISFP [The Adventurer]

ISFP types need plenty of personal space. Though they enjoy building connections with people, they need alone time to think and recharge.

They are very observant, especially focusing on the details more than the overall view. They live in the present and tend to base decisions on what they can see right now.

Adventurers also prioritize emotion when making decisions. They prefer to follow what feels right.

They don’t like schedules, but instead prefer to keep their options open. They are adaptable, spontaneous, and like to challenge the need for strict rules.

Big Three: Taurus Sun, Pisces Moon and Scorpio Rising

Taurus Sun: The Bull tends to be drawn to a creative, indulgent lifestyle — and we wouldn’t expect anything less from a Venus ruled sign. They're also thought to have a stubborn, loyal and grounded personality.

Pisces Moon: Pisces Moons are hyper-attuned to the needs and emotions of others. They're likely to predict what's on your mind before you even say it.

Scorpio Rising: Prone to turning heads, Scorpio ascendents ooze with magnetism and dynamism. They're not known to back away from a challenge. 

Enneagram Type: 8w9 [The Diplomat]

Basic Fear: Eights with a nine wing fear being hurt by others. They avoid situations in which they have less control, generally preferring to be in positions of leadership.

Basic Desire: Their basic desire is to guard themselves against threats and control their own destiny. They may express this by asserting independence at a young age.

Diplomats defend themselves by building emotional walls and denying vulnerability. They seek to appear strong, subconsciously believing that being too emotional will make them seem weak.

Moral Alignment Type: Neutral Good [The Benevolent]

These characters seek to do good, but are flexible in how they achieve it, valuing both order and freedom.

Wings

- 8w7 -

8w7s tend to have a lot of energy that they use to achieve goals and grab opportunities. They especially thrive on new experiences. They are direct and straightforward in both actions and words. 8w7s can be more demanding of others and impulsive.

- 8w9 -

The 9 wing helps calm the typical 8 core. 8w9s tend to be more empathetic and a little more patient. They are inclined to help others rather than run them over. They are not afraid of conflict, but they do not like it either. However, they will confront a situation calmly if needed. They are more considerate of others but will still fiercely chase for things they want.

___

Disintegration: 5

Disintegrating to 5 causes an 8 to withdraw from the world. They can be too warped up in their minds as they ruminate over all their issues. They become preoccuppied with possible threats, resulting in paranoia and anxiety. They feel powerless and out of control.

Integration: 2

Integration to 2 causes an 8 to become gentler and more considerate of others. They are still protective but in a calmer manner. An integrated 8 learns to be more compassionate. They become more comfortable with showing their vulnerabilities with others - they don't have to burden things alone or be aggressive in order to appear strong. Strength shows up in many calmer and kinder ways.

___

Subtypes of 8

- Sp 8 -

Sp 8s focus on gaining material and financial security as a way to assert full control and power. Having success in both makes them feel confident and independent, fully free. They try to protect themselves and others close to them by taking on the roles of protector/guardian. Being in full control and power makes them feel secure as they know what to do to not get hurt. However, they can be overwhelming to others unintentionally as they believe their protection/guidance is toughening others up and building resilience.

- Sx 8 -

Sx 8 is the most rebellious; this subtype is not afraid to break the rules and forge their own path. They can be impulsive and intense. They want to show they're very strong and confident and will take on roles of leadership to solidify this image more. They want to attract others with their passionate and magnetic energy. Although intense, it is with the purpose of creating change. This subtype can be inspiring and influential while also being argumentative and direct.

- So 8 -

So 8s use their power and influence to be an act of service to their community. They are loyal and protective, ready to fight against injustice and unfairness. So 8s seek power over social groups and hierarchies, wanting to protect themselves and others. They can influence others into a rebellion with them. This subtype greatly values trust and loyalty as it's hard for 8 to genuinely trust others in general.

Dead Boy Detectives: Jenny Green [ISTP 8w9]

MBTI Type: ISTP Jenny is detached and analytical, but not all that interested in her tenants or what they like to do in their spare time. Provided they can pay their rent, she doesn’t care what they get up to, and has no moral judgments about it. She focuses on her one interest, which is chopping meat, as a visceral experience, but has also covered her body in tattoos as a means of…

[sp6ghetti]

Can a isfp be E8?

No. Reading through the e8 chapter of Naranjo’s Character and Neurosis, it almost immediately becomes clear that this type contradicts very heavily to rational types like ISFP. I highly recommend going through this chapter in your own time, but in short: e8 is a very sensory-motor dominant type, this means that their primary focus is with the concrete, present, and external, as opposed to an Fi leading type, who is going to pay more attention to their internal reactions to particular information. Even with Se second, it’s just not going to be as prevalent.

Fruits Basket Personality Types Part 7: Haru

Haru is a tricky character for me to figure out! I'll admit, he's the first in this series for whom I don't already have a strong sense of where he might fall! I'm going to do my best to figure out where he might fall.

Hatsuharu Sohma's Enneagram

Wound: Haru was often called "stupid" and mocked by other Sohmas as a child, and his mother is vain and not particularly present or nurturing.

Wounding message: You are stupid, and will always be stupid because you're the Ox. People will laugh at you when you're inevitably tricked again.

Core desire: To forge his own path, to be given a chance to prove himself, to be seen for who he really is, for his loved ones to be safe and taken care of.

Core fear: That the people he loves will be hurt.

Defense mechanism: Aggression (Dark Haru)

Strengths: Haru is compassionate, relationship-oriented, kind, a defender of those weaker than him, sees the best in people, understands people well, and deeply loving.

Challenges: Haru can be aggressive, spacey, stubborn, contrary, competitive, and has a quick trigger to anger.

When healthy: Haru takes quick and decisive action to protect the people he loves and his kind heart is obvious.

When unhealthy: Haru can be out of control and violent.

Looking at all of this, here's what resonates when I go back to the Enneagram post:

Wound: could be 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9

Wounding message: could be 6, 7, or 8

Core desire: could be 2, 3, 4, 8, or 9

Core fear: 8

Defense mechanism: 8

Strengths: 2, 6, 8, or 9

Challenges: 8 or 9

When healthy: 3 or 8

When unhealthy: 2, 7, or 8

So, I wasn't expecting 8 to be where I landed for Haru at all! I suspected 2 or 6, or possibly 9, since the Haru we see is so relationship-oriented.

But I think we actually see Haru at his healthiest through most of the series. Yes, we do see Dark Haru a few times, and he has a particularly hard time when Rin's safety is in question, but his first interaction with Yuki showed him a different way of looking at his childhood wound. He's not stupid just because other people said so.

Eights go to Two when they're healthy. I think this is why Haru seems like a healthy Two so much of the time.

But when we look at the ways he shows his care for others, it's not in a way that makes them dependent on him, and it's not with the aim of becoming central in their lives. It's with the aim of protecting them, usually from Akito, though sometimes from others (like the overzealous President Takei).

So, I see Haru as an Enneagram 8.

From Truity:

Eights are defined by their desire to be powerful and to avoid any vulnerability. They present a confident, assertive, and decisive image to others. Eights can be argumentative and intimidating; it is important to them to stand up for what they believe in and to protect those who are weaker than themselves.

Eights live in the Gut center, and tend to overexpress anger, which I think is true of Haru before his first interaction with Yuki.

Wing

My analysis above has me thinking that Haru is an 8w9.

The Enneagram Institute refers to 8w7s as "The Maverick," and 8w9s as "The Bear." I don't totally know what is meant by "The Bear," but I do think "The Maverick" could well describe Haru, since he can be so contrarian.

Truity describes the wings like this:

8w7: The Eight wing Seven type is an Eight who shares many characteristics with the Type Seven. This type is energetic, enthusiastic and may appear more combative than other Eights. 8w9: The Eight wing Nine type is an Eight who has similar features as the Type Nine Peacemaker. They are confident, calm, and generally more patient than other Eights.

To me, the descriptor of 8w9 suits Haru better than 8w7. Maybe "The Bear" describes the way bears are usually harmless unless you threaten one of their cubs? That would fit Haru quite well.

Subtype

I think Haru is clearly a SE 8w9. His Challenger spirit is most visible when the people he loves are threatened (especially Rin, Yuki, and Momiji).

Enneagram Explained describes SE (they call them SX) Eights like this:

SX 8s have a strong rebellious nature and like to command the attention of everyone. They focus on having possession of the environment around them. These 8s are the ore provocative and have a stronger desire for intensity than the other 8s.

Tritype

Before looking at the Tritype descriptions, I suspect Haru is 2-6-8, the Rescuer/Hero. Here's the description from Katherine Fauvre's website:

If you are a 268, you are caring, supportive and protective. You want to be helpful, engaging, and straightforward. You are playful, provocative, and outspoken with a sense of bravado. You want to be in charge of your world but tend to focus on others and what is needed. You are attracted to the noble cause. You are the “every man or woman” who will fight the “good fight” for the greater good. You may be uncertain at times but will instantly challenge what is unjust or step up to shield others from harm.

Hatsuharu Sohma's MBTI

E vs. I: I'd guess Haru is I, but I'm not totally certain. He seems to direct a lot of his thinking outward, but he also has a rich inner world.

S vs. N: Haru tends to focus on concrete information in his immediate environment, so I see him as Sensing.

T vs. F: Haru is strongly F, with people and values at the center of his decision-making.

J vs. P: Haru is strongly P, preferring to stay open-ended and flexible (unless someone he loves is in danger).

Type Dynamics: Without working out what an ISFP's type dynamics are (since that's my most likely guess for Haru), I see Haru's Type Dynamics as Fi Se Ni Te.

Fi: Haru is deeply empathetic and has a strong sense of justice, which he tries to live up to in his own actions.

Se: Haru acts on the concrete information in the world around him, and trusts in his present experience.

Ni: Haru relies and acts on his inner insights, which can be hard for others to understand.

Te: Haru has little tolerance for logical inconsistencies (like the school dress code)

Fi Se Ni Te is the type dynamic of ISFP!

Here's how the Myers & Briggs Foundation describes ISFP:

ISFP: Quiet, friendly, sensitive, and kind. Enjoy the present moment, what's going on around them. Like to have their own space and to work within their own time frame. Loyal and committed to their values and to people who are important to them. Dislike disagreements and conflicts; don't force their opinions or values on others.

I think that last line is true as long as Dark Haru hasn't been triggered. Otherwise, it sounds just like him!

ISFPs are often referred to as "The Composer" or "The Adventurer." Truity says about ISFPs:

ISFPs are gentle caretakers who live in the present moment and enjoy their surroundings with cheerful, low-key enthusiasm. They are flexible and spontaneous, and like to go with the flow to enjoy what life has to offer. ISFPs are quiet and unassuming, and may be hard to get to know. However, to those who know them well, the ISFP is warm and friendly, eager to share in life's many experiences. ISFPs have a strong aesthetic sense and seek out beauty in their surroundings. They are attuned to sensory experience, and often have a natural talent for the arts. ISFPs especially excel at manipulating objects, and may wield creative tools like paintbrushes and sculptor's knives with great mastery.

So, to summarize:

Enneagram: SE 8w9 (The Challenger/The Bear)

Tritype: 2-6-8 (The Rescuer/Hero)

MBTI: ISFP (The Composer/The Adventurer)

I think this captures a lot about Haru; his usually mild nature, his hot temper when someone he loves is threatened, his interest in the arts and loyalty to those he loves. I'm pleasantly surprised with how secure I feel in these types for Haru!

What do you think? Did I get it right or wrong? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

[mistype360]

i’m curious about the e8 sin of lust/excess, i’m an e9 and i do relate to the “self laziness” thing but i also definitely crave the sensory experience and stimulation, the satisfaction, the “adventure” and feeding of my “hunger” and to do what i want autonomously and to live life to the fullest/on “10” - but i’m also a se dom with a 7 fix lmao 😭 so i wonder where the distinction is i guess?

"hunger"

what an interesting, complex, beautiful, stimulating question 🥺🥺 mamma mia

e7: gluttony

i feel like the difference between e7 and e8 is the same difference between gluttony and lust.

lust (8) is all about intensity or "quality." gluttony (7) is all about "quantity."

up to some point, an 8 will be satisfied with what they have, but 7's don't really ever feel satisfied. an 8 will seek joy, pleasure and whatnot until they feel "powerful" or "in control." a 7 won't ever feel like they have enough no matter how much they have.

another difference is that 8's are much more focused on a set amount or specific pleasure. for example, they might have a certain vision that they really really really want to travel the world (as you say, is your "adventure"). drinking might make them happy, but they could never substitute that for traveling.

a 7 on the other hand will find a way to fulfill themselves no matter what. if the are unable to travel, they'll "fill the hole" with other things: gambling, watching tv, etc. sure, they might be small differences. but they get the same feeling from all.

the 8 seeks a "thing." the 7 seeks a "feeling"

e9: numbness

i think e9 and e8's difference is relatively clear in terms of hunger, but e9 and e7 are very very similar in the aspect of indulgences you describe- especially an sp9.

descriptions just don't do them justice when trying to tell the difference, so i will give an example:

an enneagram 7 likes to party. they come back from a night out, and they feel great! but after a while that feeling goes away and they just want more. they go to another one, and another one, and another one...and they keep thinking that each time will be better than the last. it's a constant chase, but it's as if they can never really achieve it

an enneagram 9 has already given up. they realize that parties are unfulfilling and recognize how it might harm them. but a single moment they feel happy at the party is basically enough for them to keep doing it. it's almost as if instead of chasing, like the e7, they have just "given up" and let themselves indulge. they kind of have this "eh, whatever" thinking: "i am going to seek this out anyways so might as well go"

ENNEAGRAM EIGHT INTRODUCTION (DOGO ARGENTINO)

Eight perceives the world as harsh and competitive. The objective of life is to overcome adversity and master their own life.

Their (unconscious) fear is being disempowered or vulnerable.

SEEKS: AUTONOMY By pushing their boundaries and “impulses” outward to avoid being controlled.

ASSERT : THEIR VITALITY “Hesitation gets you nowhere.” “Why should I restrain control ?“

8s are driven by a desire to live through high energy or power as a way to deny their vulnerability. They strive to assert control of their life to avoid being at the mercy of others who could restrain their desires or autonomy. They get hooked on that constant adrenaline rush of pushing limits and embracing their vitality.

Healthy 8s use their willpower to take initiative and build something meaningful and positive for themselves, while encouraging others to exploit their own inner strengths. They enjoy tackling obstacles and overcoming them, yet they also know when to step back and conserve their energy or resources.

Average 8s struggle to use their willpower effectively, often taking or pushing more than what they need. They can become too reactive and confrontational whenever something or someone is in their way. Their need to constantly assert their autonomy might push others away and create unnecessary conflicts or problems.

Healthy 8s are courageous but humble with their own limits, understanding the importance of nurturing their energy. They are quick to act when problems or opportunities arise, unafraid to navigate challenges in the moment. However, they have learned to reflect on their actions for more thoughtful decisions.

Average 8s often take too much, initially excited by the challenges or intensity they put themselves through. They end up taking unnecessary risks, disregarding warnings or rules while pushing themselves (or others) beyond healthy limits. They take their well-being and stamina for granted, often leading to exhaustion.

Healthy 8s respond calmly when they feel wronged without resorting to excessive force. They also use their assertiveness to protect and advocate for others. When they recognize their vulnerability, they are able to display immense love, generosity and loyalty to the people they care about.

Average 8s struggle to acknowledge their hurt feelings, projecting an aggressive or larger-than-life presence when feeling wronged or hurt. They have trust issues and maintain a defiant stance to protect themselves from being betrayed or disempowered. This makes it harder for them to connect or collaborate with others.
