12. Upside-down: The Nine Enneagram Counter-types
In every case, with each of the nine points of the Enneagram, there are two subtypes that go with the flow of the energy of the passion and there is one that is upside-down, one that goes against the main energetic direction of the passion. This "counter-passional" type is called the "counter-type" of the three subtypes. The most well-known of the counter-types is the counter-phobic Six. It's a kind of Six that is unafraid. The passion of the Six is Fear, but the Sexual subtype, one of the three Six subtypes, goes against fear by being strong and intimidating as a way of coping with Fear. In this episode, Beatrice Chestnut and Uranio Paes discuss all of the counter-types of the nine types.
