The Enneagram Treating your Soul Type with Flower and Crystal
Essences
What is the Enneagram?
The Enneagram is an ancient system of nine
personality types. It's believed to have originally been taught
orally in secret Sufi brotherhoods in the Middle East. It
is very rewarding to explore and has tremendous depth once
you start to study it. I find it very useful in determining
soul challenges in my work. Below are summaries of the gifts
and challenges of each type with essence suggestions to support
them. The Bach flower options are great for children and for
conscious change. The deeper acting essences are best for
cellular level, karmic shifts. N.B. Each number has two other
numbers as 'wings', so you'll always see yourself in more
than one number.
