For the last few months, I've been spending more and more time reading up on the Enneagram and part of that reading has resulted in me pondering the eixstance of some odd MBTI/Ennegram type combos so here are some thoughts on those combos that have been bouncing around in my mind...
INTx / Enneagram 2
I went and looked at a relativly recent poll of NTs and Enneagram type and 2 was the only type not represented at all. My theory is that it could exist, and possibly even be more common than people realize, but an NT that is also an Enneagram 2 will feel at least a little out of place among normal NTs and would be more inclined to reach a conclusion that they are an NF (Its a possibility I've cosnidered for myself that would explain a few things, but there is still enough that does not fit to doubt it).
xSxx / Enneagram 4
If such a combo existed, I think there would be a strong possibility they would give more consideration to being an xNxx, but again would feel a bit out of place among just about everyone (even moreso than normal xNxx 4s). I could see xSFPs being 4s, but not really any of the other S types.
IxFx / Enneagram 8
A bit more possible than the other two I listed, but it still seems like 8 lends itself to both Extroversion and Thinking preferences, so an IxFx that were an 8 might be more inclined to self type as an T of some sort and be close on the intorversion/extroversion preference.
Anyone else have any "thing that should not be" type of Ennegram/MBTI (or other typology) combos that you think are fun to ponder?
