What Is an Enneagram Wing?
A wing is the Enneagram type next to your primary type that also shapes your personality, for example, a Type 4 leans toward either a 3 or a 5 wing.
What Does a Wing Mean?
Each of the 9 types has two neighbors on the Enneagram circle. Most people show traits from their primary type plus one of those two neighbors, blending the two influences.
How We Calculate Your Wing
We compare your scores on your primary type's two neighboring types and pick whichever scored higher. This is our own deterministic approach, not a claim about an official calculation method.

Can I have two wings?

Does my wing ever change?
Your primary type is considered fairly stable, but which neighboring traits show up more can shift with context and self-awareness.
