The 3 Enneagram Stances + Learn How You Interact To Get What You Want

Understanding your Enneagram stance is a powerful tool for helping understand how you and others interact in social relationships.

Three stances influence how you interact with others: Aggressive, Dependent, and Withdrawn. Each of the three Enneagram stances refers to a person’s social style.

Understanding your Enneagram stance can impact how you see yourself and the world around you. This effect includes your career and social relationships too.

The Aggressive Stance:
Enneagram Types Three, Seven, and Eight are part of the aggressive stance.

The Dependent Stance:
The dependent stance includes Enneagram Types one, two, and six.

The Withdrawn Stance:
Enneagram Types four, five, and nine are in the withdrawn stance.

Each Enneagram stance is a strategy or method that helps us get what we want or achieve a goal, and they pair with our Enneagram type.

The three stances are the Aggressive stance, Dependant stance, and Withdrawing stance.

I am a 1 and your description fits me perfectly. Great reminder to maintain healthy boundaries so I don’t withdraw to keep from being overly self sacrificial.

Great info! This really helps me to understand myself and my loved ones so much better.

Hmm, what if you behaved like the types in the aggressive stance as a child or teenager but got punished a lot because of impulsive actions that had bad consequences, so you learned to withdraw and thoroughly think things through to avoid further pain?

I am now in the withdrawn stance. I rarely act on my thoughts and feelings but overthink a lot. But as a child/teenager, I didn’t care about consequences and just acted in the moment.
