Forty Days on Being a Four (Enneagram Daily Reflections)

Summary

How are you feeling? Christine Yi Suh says that this has always been a hard question. She writes: The more accurate question for a Four may be, 'What aren't you feeling?' I can grab my prevailing emotion and tell you how I'm doing from that emotion's point of view (joy, elation, sadness, grief, confusion-you name it!). I live and breathe a kaleidoscope of living, feeling, conflicting emotions. Many times Fours are labeled emotionally intense or too much, but for a Four this is just how life is. This is why Fours are ideal companions in the midst difficult times: the death of a loved one, the birth of a baby, transitional seasons in career, relational conflict, and so on. The Enneagram is a profound tool for empathy, so whether or not you are a Four, you will grow from your reading about Four and enhance your relationships across the Enneagram spectrum. Each reading concludes with an opportunity for further engagement such as a journaling prompt, reflection questions, a written prayer, or a spiritual practice.
