Review of Trinities to Enneagrams, 2nd Edition
[Following is a volunteer review of "Trinities to Enneagrams, 2nd Edition" by Allen David Young.]
Allen David Young's Trinities to Enneagrams, 2nd Edition is a comprehensive exploration of the enneagram system, a spiritual tool for understanding personality types, and its integration with the concept of trinities. David introduces the concept of cosmic enneagram types and annual enneagram-type life stages, providing readers with a framework to understand their personality, soul's purpose, and life stages from birth through ageing. The book is structured to simplify complex ideas, using diagrams and tables to illustrate the connections between astrology and the enneagram system, making it accessible to those new to these concepts.
The core of the book lies in the idea that when faced with a deadlock or duality, a third or unifying aspect of the trinity can lead to a graceful resolution. David's work is based on the Law of Three, which is a fundamental principle in many spiritual and philosophical traditions. The enneagram is presented as a system in motion, with nine signs and stages of development that offer insights into one's life cycle. This synthesis of ancient wisdom traditions aims to provide a clear understanding of oneself and others, benefiting the personal, interpersonal, and social spheres of human existence.
I like many aspects of this book. One of the most commendable aspects of this book is its ability to present a complex subject in a clear and understandable manner. I appreciate the author's writing for its clarity, particularly in how it relates the enneagram to astrology, a topic that can often be perplexing. The book's approach to characterising life stages from birth through ageing and offering new perspectives for self-discovery is particularly ngaging. The addition of enneagram signs provides a fresh dimension to the traditional enneagram types, revealing one's soul-centred personality.
Furthermore, I appreciate this book for its actionable insights. The "Autobiography Summary Outline" provided by it is a practical tool that allows readers to implement what the book teaches, discover their purpose, and stay true to themselves. The book's visual aids, such as diagrams and tables, enhance the learning experience and aid in the application of the concepts discussed.
I do not dislike any aspect of this book. While the book may be challenging for those new to these concepts, its detailed explanations and practical applications make it a valuable resource for anyone seeking deeper insight into their personality and life's journey. I didn't notice any errors while reading this book, which shows that it was exceptionally well-edited.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars for the reasons I mentioned above. I recommend this book to those who have an interest in astrology, enneagrams, and spiritual development, as well as to readers looking for a structured approach to exploring their identity and life stages.
