Carver and Green, creators of an enneagram Instagram account (@justmyenneatype) with more than 300,000 followers, elaborate on the enneagram personality typing system in this inviting work. The authors use figures, charts, and other imagery to explain the complex variety of enneagram types and discuss how knowing one’s type can offer insight into one’s strengths, weaknesses, and inner motivations. Carver and Green organize the nine enneagram types by assigning a color and catchy theme that summarizes that type’s outlook on life (type twos being “you need me!” and type threes are “look at me!”), along with potentially unhealthy attributes (the artistic disposition of a type four often comes with hidden shame). The authors explain the “heart motivation” of each type (type fours, for instance, need beauty), the subconscious lies they tend to believe (type eights, they say, are prone to believe that “I am too much”), and how to love each type appropriately (someone in love with a type seven is encouraged to create space for the seven’s dreams). Enneagram beginners and veterans alike can enjoy this creative guide. (Aug.)
