The enneagram shows us not only who we are when we are in the “trance of personality” but also how we can wake up to ourselves at any given moment.

When caught in the trance, enneagram fours can become fixated on and stuck in their emotions and envious of others for having what they perceive is lacking in themselves. This fixation can be a heavy burden to bear and it can interfere with relationships, goals, and overall impact.

To wake up, enneagram fours can ask themselves:

How can I be more objective and principled…

in this moment?

while doing this activity?

while having this conversation?

By checking in and asking themselves these questions, Fours can loosen the grip of their personality and move towards embodying their highest self.
