Origins
The Enneagram comes from the Greek words ennea (nine) and grammos (written symbol). The nine-pointed symbol of the Enneagram represents nine distinct strategies for relating to oneself, others, and the world.
Probably originating in Babylon 2,500 years ago and studied by the ancient Greeks, it symbolizes divine concepts such as the absolute and unity. In the 1970s, Claudio Naranjo integrated the Enneagram into modern psychology, thus merging ancient wisdom with contemporary psychological discoveries.

How it works
Each Enneagram type presents a different pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting that stems from an inner motivation or deeper worldview. Although we are all unique, we share common experiences.
As a tool for personal and collective transformation, the Enneagram promotes greater understanding through a universal language that transcends gender, religion, nationality, and culture.
