Our final gathering at point nine 

Nine: My Generative Presence

We close by shaping what has been uncovered into lived direction. What has this journey asked of you, and what is the smallest brave step you can take now? It is now January 2027, and you are ready to act.

At Point 9, the Shattered Heart names a wound that also opens a passage. What has broken becomes an opening through which significance, worth, and potential call for movement.

How does the Life Force seek expression through the gifts of your singular being, here, in this world, at this time?

Questions?

Is this a good programme for me?
Feel free to have a chat with Petra or Ingrid about where you are in your life right now and whether this programme is right for you. It is important to understand that although we explore psychological themes, it is not a group therapy journey, and if you are in a time of psychological or emotional crisis it would be important to have additional 1:1 therapeutic support in place outside the programme.

Are there prerequisites for joining? Do I have to know the Enneagram?
No, there are no prerequisites for joining this journey. You also don't need to have studied the Enneagram. The Wisdom taught on this journey is universal, informed by the Enneagram as well as other Wisdom Traditions. We help you to absorb what matters to you in a soulful, personally relevant, and practical way!

What if I am now Ennea-curious? Where do I start?
If you want to explore the Enneagram upfront, speak to Nikki, our Programme Manager, about answering a Questionnaire (Enneagram Test) and getting an in-depth personal report and a 1:1 90 Minute debrief with Ingrid before the Programme starts. An additional cost applies that includes a discount for participants on this programme. (R4500 ex VAT / $350). If you want to find reliable introductory information, avoiding the sea of nonsense on the internet, go to The Enneagram Institute.
