[Traditional Enneagram] Perception on 8s

[draon9]

Read the title
They are very direct people
They believe in strength it could be in maturity responsibility in ones actions or it could be in getting oneself together
I do not think they are control freaks they have a dominant presence
They believe in loyalty
They set themselves to a certain in areas of life maybe not in a moralistic way or in a logical way
Theyre careful of who they let in their life because they seem to automatically know how corrupt people can be.
I do not how people come to that realization
Examples
King xerse
King cyrus
Batman

I don’t use my strength to controls but to keep others from controlling me.
And because I don’t trust other people to be there when I need them so it’s better to just never need them.

I think this lines up with most 8’s.
