In this Week 7 reflection on Shadow Work & the Enneagram Lines, we explore Type 4 and the shadow of authenticity—where the sincere search for identity, meaning, and self-understanding can gradually become organized around specialness.
Through the Enneagram as a map of consciousness and Centering Prayer as a contemplative practice, we're invited to notice the ways we may become preoccupied with what is missing, unique, extraordinary, or not yet fully realized.
Together, we'll explore how the movements toward points 1 and 2 invite greater responsibility, grounded participation, and open-heartedness toward others. Along the way, we discover that authenticity may not emerge through endless self-examination, but through fully inhabiting the life that is already ours.Please consider taking a few moments before, during, or after this talk to pause and contemplate the sacredness of ordinary life.
