4w3. The 4 brings out my creative side, but the 3 wing means I have a more energetic extroverted side to me than a typical 4.

I've read that Sylvia Plath (poet) was 4w5 and that combination is said to be susceptible to depression and suicidal thoughts. So maybe I'm lucky to have a little 3 wing!

Next famous poet?! Does your 4 give you a creative streak, Runvardh? Do you agree with your wing 5?

I only identify a bit with my wing 3. It gives me some energy and extroversion, but I'm not competitive or materialistic as a 3 is typically supposed to be.

I still think I prefer the MBTI. As others have said, with enneagram types you can end up being a near miss to all sorts of other numbers. Not very clearly defined.

Creativity when I allow it. I agree with it entirely and can use the tests for enneagram to work out what mood I'm in at a given time. MBTI is a little more static while Enneagram is more about flow. Kind of like the difference between the color and the velocity of a car.
