Hey there, listen up! Today, I wanna talk about that enneagram and astrology thing. Lots of folks gettin’ all mixed up with these things. Some say they related, some say no way. I hear all sorts of things, you know. It’s like when you try to figure out what kind of crops to plant based on the moon.
What’s this Enneagram?
This enneagram thing, it’s like a wheel with nine points. Each point is a different kind of person. They say it helps you know yourself better. Like, are you a helper? Or are you a bossy one? Or maybe you’re the quiet type, thinkin’ all the time.
- Type 1: That’s the one who always wants to do things right.
- Type 2: Oh, these are the helpers. Always lendin’ a hand. But sometimes they need some help, too.
- Type 3: These folks, they’re always tryin’ to be the best.
- Type 4: They’re the artsy ones, feelin’ all the feels.
- Type 5: The smart ones, always thinkin’ and learnin’. But sometimes, you gotta tell ’em to come out of their shells.
- Type 6: Always lookin’ for someone to lean on.
- Type 7: These are the fun ones. Always lookin’ for a good time.
- Type 8: The strong ones, always takin’ charge. Sometimes, they gotta learn to let others lead.
- Type 9: These folks just want everyone to get along. They are the peacemakers.
They say types 2, 8, and 5 are rare birds. Not many of ’em around. It’s like findin’ a four-leaf clover in a big field. Most people are some of the other types. I don’t know. It’s a lot to think about.
Stars and Planets
Now, that astrology, that’s all about the stars and planets. You know, like when you’re born, what was the moon doin’? What about them other planets? They say it all means somethin’. Like, if you’re born when the moon is full, maybe you’re gonna be a little bit wild. Or maybe you like to howl at the moon like a wolf. I don’t know.
Some people, they swear by it. They say the stars tell you all about your life. Who you’re gonna marry, what kind of job you’ll have, how many kids you’re gonna have. Some say it is real, some say it is fake. It’s like that time old Mrs. Johnson swore she saw a ghost in her outhouse. Some believed her, some didn’t.
Do They Go Together? Enneagram and Astrology?
So, do these two things, enneagram and astrology, do they go together? Some folks say they do. They say your star sign can tell you what kind of enneagram type you are. Like, if you’re a Leo, maybe you’re a Type 3, always wantin’ to be the center of attention, roar like a lion. It is really hard to understand.
But other folks, they say it’s all hogwash. They say the enneagram and astrology, they’re like apples and oranges. They don’t have nothin’ to do with each other. You can be any enneagram type, no matter what your star sign is. It’s like sayin’ everyone born in July has to like watermelon. That’s just silly. There are people who do not like watermelon. How crazy is that?
Honestly, I don’t know what to think. Maybe there’s somethin’ to it, maybe there ain’t. It’s like tryin’ to predict the weather. Sometimes you’re right, sometimes you’re wrong. But either way, it’s fun to think about.
I heard some folks sayin’ there’s a test you can take. A quiz, they call it. You answer a bunch of questions, and it tells you what your enneagram type is. Sounds like a lot of work to me. But if you’re curious, maybe you can give it a try. Or just ask your grandma, she probably knows all the answers. We old folks, we’ve seen a lot, you know. This is the way to know your personality, just ask others.
My Two Cents
In the end, I think it all comes down to what you believe. If you think the enneagram and astrology are connected, then good for you. If you don’t, that’s fine too. It’s like sayin’ whether or not you believe in luck. Some folks carry a rabbit’s foot, some folks don’t. It’s all up to you. We must unveil our true self with our own belief.
Just remember, no matter what your enneagram type is, or what your star sign is, you’re still you. And that’s all that really matters. Just be a good person, be kind to others, and don’t forget to call your grandma. She misses you. Especially if you’re a Type 2, a helper, you better call. We old folks, we need all the help we can get.
