Enneagram Wing Test Explained

An Enneagram Wing Test is a specialized assessment that identifies a key secondary influence on your primary Enneagram type.

In the Enneagram system, each of the nine core personality types can be influenced by one of the adjacent types, referred to as wings.

These wings enrich your core type by blending characteristics of the neighboring type into your personality, adding depth and nuance to your understanding of yourself.

Take a look at the illustration to discover how the 18 possible wings are organized around the Enneagram wheel.

Whether you're a Type 1 with a 2 wing (1w2) or any other combination among the nine types, knowing your wing can provide deeper self-awareness and richer insights.
