Abstract
Enneagram is, according to some, a psychological self-cognition method, similar to character description. Others maintain that it is a spiritual development method, seeking to »Christianize« it at any cost, or at least present it as compatible with Christianity (and other religions). Enneagram critics point to its obscure esoteric-numerological origins, whereas New Age views it as a privileged method most brilliantly expressing its syncretistic worldview which equally accentuates spirituality, psychology and gnosis. In the present article, its author brings to light the esoteric origin and psychological nature of enneagram, expressing a high degree of reserve with respect to its application for the purposes of spiritual growth, as pointed out in the document by the Papal Council for Culture and Papal Council for Inter-religious Dialogue: Jesus Christ – the Bringer of Living Water, no 1.4.
