  • In this episode of the Defiant Spirit podcast, Dr. Baruch Halevi (“B.”) and Rebecca Rosen explore the intersection of spirituality and the Enneagram, discussing how these concepts can help individuals navigate life's challenges.

    They delve into the significance of the Soul Contract, the shift from victimhood to empowerment, and the importance of understanding both the shadows and light within the Enneagram types.

    🔹 What You'll Learn:

    Each type is examined in detail, highlighting their strengths, weaknesses, and the lessons they offer for personal growth and transformation.

    B. and Rebecca also introduce a new, transformational program called 9 Lives, which combines the wisdom of the Enneagram with spiritual guidance.

    9 Lives is designed to help you identify and remove the barriers that keep you from experiencing true happiness, meaning, and connection. The program will empower you to shift from a mindset of victimhood to one of empowerment.

    Central to this journey is the concept of your Soul Contract. Spiritual teachers, mystics, and prophets believe that we are here at this specific moment in time to fulfill a unique purpose.

    Understanding and fulfilling your Soul Contract leads to a depth of meaning, peace, and love that is beyond words.

    You start 9 Lives by taking the Enneagram, which illuminates the nine core energies or types within us all, particularly the shadow side of each type.

    Unlike other personality typing systems that tell you who you are, the Enneagram reveals who you are not, showing where you go when fear, doubt, or survival mode takes over—when you're in the grip of your shadow.

    Each Enneagram type offers unique shadows and light to explore, providing valuable insights into your personal growth.

    Type 1: The Integrity Seeker: Driven by a desire for perfection, Ones can become critical and judgmental. But their shadow also holds the key to their greatest strength: a deep understanding of wholeness and the ability to inspire positive change.

    Type 2: The Intimacy Seeker: Twos are natural caregivers, but their outward focus can lead to self-neglect and resentment. By cultivating self-care and healthy boundaries, they can experience true intimacy and connection.

    Type 3: The Manifestation Seeker: Threes are achievers, but their drive for success can become a mask for insecurity. By aligning their actions with their authentic purpose, they can manifest their dreams with integrity.

    Type 4: The Authenticity Seeker: Fours are deep and introspective, but their sensitivity can lead to melancholy and isolation. By embracing their unique gifts and connecting with others, they can share their light with the world.

    Type 5: The Enlightenment Seeker: Fives are knowledge seekers, but their intellectual focus can lead to detachment and isolation. By integrating head and heart, they can access their intuition and connect with others on a deeper level.

    Type 6: The Faith Seeker: Sixes are loyal and dependable, but their anxiety can lead to fear and doubt. By cultivating trust and faith, they can find inner peace and security.

    Type 7: The Spirited Seeker: Sevens radiates outward, reflecting their expansive approach to life, however in their shadows this can lead to undisciplined energy, scattering their focus or causing avoidance of life's darker aspects of life.

    Type 8: The Truth Seeker expresses an intensity for life, however, when in shadow energy, this can become overwhelming, push others away or do damage to their surroundings or those within it, or even themselves.

    Type 9: The Unity Seeker embodies peace, fostering harmony in all relationships. In the shadows, however, their aversion to conflict can lead to meekness, self-neglect, and over-agreeableness, as they lose themselves, deceive others or create a mere facade of unity.

We often allow external circumstances to reduce us to certain roles or identities, but we have the power to choose our responses and define who we are.
