What’s up swimmers? Today, we’re digging into my most requested topic: Numerology & the Enneagram! 🔢⚡️🥳
THIS SUNDAY ON IG LIVE 🚨
I’m psyched to join Jules on her Instagram @tarotadventureswithjules on Sunday 10/9 at 11:11am EST to chat all things numbers, tarot, and of course—The Witch’s Book of Numbers!
We hope you’ll join us!
WHAT’S UP WITH ALL THESE NUMBERS? 🔢
Today, we’re talking about the Enneagram!
I’ve gotten a lot of questions about the Enneagram since I started talking about and teaching Numerology, and at my workshop on my book that I had last month, the conversation was kicked up again, so I figured let’s just do it!
Now, I also realize that we haven’t talked a whole lot about Numerology itself on this podcast—which is a bit wild considering that I wrote a whole ass book on the topic!—so I think today, let’s start basically from scratch, covering the basics of each numeric system and then we can get into comparing and contrasting them!
NUMEROLOGY
Numerology is the study of the cosmic language of numbers and the intuitive application of those Divine principles to people, places and events.
It is a tool that can help us gain awareness of the many cycles we are experiencing and patterns we are playing out at any given moment, personally and collectively.
Just as we all have an astrological natal chart, we have our own set of personal numbers that can guide and provide insight into one's life path, patterns, strengths, and invitations into growth.
Numerology is an ancient philosophy with roots in both the Western and Eastern worlds. the earliest writings stem from Babylonian and Egyptian works in the West, and India, Japan and China in the East.
It is both a calculated practice and an art, meaning there are still various schools of thought.
THE ENNEAGRAM
From Integrative Enneagram Solutions:
The Enneagram is an archetypal framework that offers in-depth insight to individuals, groups and collectives. Consisting of three Centers of intelligence, nine main Enneagram types, 18 wings, three subtypes and Triadic styles, the Enneagram offers a rich map to personal development from an open systems perspective. It does not box in people, but rather opens a pathway to self-discovery and greater personal awareness.
The Enneagram is, therefore, a sense-making tool or a framework that enables the development of self-knowledge and meta-awareness.
