9s have to learn to repel sometimes

The undilluted 9 is a bit like vanilla ice cream, in that few people dislike it & it can easily, inoffensively blend into most other flavors. If we don't occasionally lean into our boundary-setting 8 wing, it can become overwhelming how much like shamans we innately are. And yet when healthy, 9s can become the most whole & inwardly content Enneatype... From there they can share the insights they've acquired & inspire others to attain inner peace. It's a vital gift that is often times very much taken for granted. And there's a part of 9s that at times prefers to be overlooked, & another part that hates it... Our core fear, though, is the prospect of disrupting the inner & outer peace+unity/bonds we've struggled set in place. Do watch out for their passive aggression, though. They have a hard time saying no, & that's where a lot of their resentments stem from. They're the one type that's probably truly selfless to a fault, & also needs to be encouraged to actively become aware of & integrate their anger in healthy, proactive ways. I'm still learning how to even recognize when I'm angry; it's like that part of me was broken in childhood. One has to know that it's there if they're to have any hope of sublimating it, & looking at an emotion wheel can really help. I was surprised to learn "frustration" is on the anger spectrum. I had no idea... (edited)
