Enneagram Type 6 - The Loyalist
Conflicted between trust and distrust
People of this personality type essentially feel insecure, as though there is nothing quite steady enough to hold onto. At the core of the type Six personality is a kind of fear or anxiety. This anxiety has a very deep source and can manifest in a variety of different styles, making Sixes somewhat difficult to describe and to type. What all Sixes have in common however, is the fear rooted at the center of their personality, which manifests in worrying, and restless imaginings of everything that might go wrong. This tendency makes Sixes gifted at trouble shooting, but also robs the Six of much needed peace of mind and tends to deprive the personality of spontaneity. The essential anxiety at the core of the type Six fixation tends to permeate the personality with a sort of "defensive suspiciousness." Sixes don't trust easily; they are often ambivalent about others, until the person has absolutely proven herself, at which point they are likely to respond with steadfast loyalty. The loyalty of the Six is something of a two edged sword however, as Sixes are sometimes prone to stand by a friend, partner, job or cause even long after it is time to move on.
Sixes are generally looking for something or someone to believe in. This, combined with their general suspiciousness, gives rise to a complicated relationship to authority. The side of the Six which is looking for something to believe in, is often very susceptible to the temptation to turn authority over to an external source, whether it be in the form of an individual or a creed. But the Six's tendency towards distrust and suspicion works against any sort of faith in authority. Thus, two opposite pulls exist side by side in the personality of enneatype Six, and assume different proportions in different individuals, sometimes alternating within the same individual.
The truly confounding element when it comes to typing Sixes is that there are two fundamentally different strategies that Sixes adopt for dealing with fear. Some Sixes are basically phobic. Phobic Sixes are generally compliant, affiliative and cooperative. Other Sixes adopt the opposite strategy of dealing with fear, and become counterphobic, essentially taking a defiant stand against whatever they find threatening. This is the Six who takes on authority or who adopts a dare devil attitude towards physical danger. Counterphobic Sixes can be agressive and, rather than looking for authorities, can adopt a rebellious or anti-authoritarian demeanor. Counterphobic Sixes are often unaware of the fear that motivates their actions. In fact, Sixes in general, tend to be blind to the extent of their own anxiety. Because it is the constant back drop to all of their emotions, Sixes are frequently unaware of its existence, as they have nothing with which to contrast it.
Because Sixes so frequently fail to appreciate the extent of their own fear, they often mistype themselves. It is common for instance, for female Sixes to mistype as
Twos, especially if they are identified with a helper role, but Sixes have a much more ambivalent attitude towards relationships than do Twos, who generally know exactly what they want. Sixes, failing to recognize their anxiety, can mistype as
Nines, but Nines have the ability to relax and to trust in others, neither of which come easily to Sixes. Sixes can mistype as
Fours, especially if they have artistic inclinations, but they lack the Four's self-absorption. They can mistype as
Fives, especially if they are intellectual, as many Sixes are, but unlike Fives, Sixes tend to be practical. Finally, conterphobic Sixes can easily mistype as
Eights, but they lack the Eight's self-certainty.

Your Destiny Number is 8
The Extremist EightEight is the number of endeavor and of connections. The symbol of eight, are the octagon and the eight-pointed star. The shape of the number eight symbolizes it as the circuit of energy.The Karmic Lesson for Destiny Number Eight is to find strength for the collective, particularly during challenging times. You may lead others with a strong direction and a powerful will driving everyone forward with their lives, and carving a positive way forward.
You excel under most adverse circumstances, the more difficult a situation is, the more you shine. You achieve fame and administrative capabilities, hold high positions and become rich in your later part of life. If you are in politics you attain highest positions (particularly in opposition), if you are into spirituality or occultism, you become group leaders.
However, you are never far from troubles (both real and imaginary), opposition and sometimes, humiliation. You are busy trying to attain the highest position in your work; you have no time for amusement. You are destined to make a mark -either as great scientists or social reformers, or by bad karmas like subversive activities as you become leader of opposition groups, anti social groups, terrorist group and may meet tragic end. You may have more endurance power than any other destiny number. You almost never give in stress or strain; you are quite flexible and adjust to shocks quite easily. Your destiny makes you perform bad karmas, face lawsuits, involve in accidents, premature aging etc.
It also provides you with wisdom through bad experiences, failures and opposition. You are not so successful in matters of love and are prone to sex scandals. You normally do not have a long or happily married life. This may sometimes prove beneficial to you as you have philosophical bent of mind and can abstain from pleasure seeking nature and put your energy, lock, stock and barrel to fight for alleviation of sufferings of fellow people. You are, however, good planners, and are fond of success at a grand scale. If you were able to subdue your weaknesses and interact with favorable numbers; you would reach great heights in your career.
Eight people are often satirical about the feast of famine destiny that Fate seems to have dealt them. And their karmic lesson is that they should remember that they have as many positive experiences as negative ones. They have to see the logic of a higher intelligence, which allows them to work hard towards their goals, even when it seems to pull the rug from under them. The inner strength seems to be constantly tested, often causing them to wonder how much more they have to prove in order to receive their just rewards. However once they can accept their seesaw existence, they usually find a way to deal with it by storing their strengths for a rainy day.
Key Words: strong, executive, decisive, authority, professional, blunt, masterful, good judgment, problem solver.
