Odd that I've yet to get "into" enneagrams. OTOH it's entirely possible I have a book on them somewhere that is yet to be read.
it's been along time I was into this and used it in some minor diagnostics. I messed up my result from back then. It should read 5, 4-wing, not 6-5 or 5-6.

it's a very helpful system, becasue it does not only put some stamp on people, but gives them an idea of what direction to orient themselves at, and what better to avoid, and why - my big criticism of standard personality inventories (not to mention that I find their categories and experimental results often questionable). A shame that clinical and counseling psychology almost completely ignores the enneagram, at least over here.
