Type 6 is also called the Loyalist or the Vanguard. Here at Enneahouse, we call Type 6's "Wind" elemental personalities. Wind can be calm, gentle and omnipresent, but also biting and unpredictable.
Type 6's are born with a need for security. They often believe that one can never be secure enough and that they must protect themselves and those close to them at all costs. 6's have the potential to be true loyalists who would lay down their own life and comfort for a loved one. They often dream of everyone else being safe and happy, even if it means riding off into the sunset themselves. They are usually driven by being safe and guided and fear being without guidance or leadership.
The world needs Type 6's because they are the defenders of the undefended and protectors of the unprotected. They understand people's needs on a level nobody else can and are truly capable of selfless sacrifice. They are the police, the firefighters, the ENTs, those who put their own safety on the line to save others.
When they are in a negative emotional state, Type 6's may become stubborn, skeptical and focused on worldly success. Their emotional state decays when there are decisions that need to be made and they rely exclusively on others to make them.
When they are in a positive emotional state, Type 6's become true peacemakers who can see both sides of any argument. They become mediators, mentors and guides. They improve their psychological state by realizing that they are capable of making good decisions and moving forward rather than standing still waiting for someone else to lead them.
