![]() ![]() They avoid changes in the workplace for fear of not being able to deal with them, of lacking the ability or knowledge they do not propose things but rather hope that others do for them. In the work environment, they choose to do things they are sure of. The fear of judgment compromises doing, with inhibition leading them to known or comfortable goals. Prior to action, a long and troubling process leads them to ruminate with a rigidity that turns into pure inaction. The dominant fear is of failing and doing wrong and it is so dominating that it blocks action or expression, and is as if they lacked an internal method to determine the validity of a personal choice. They obsessively search to confirm what they are and what they do. They accuse with the purpose of defending themselves and ensuring that others don’t accuse them. ![]() It is hard for them to take on responsibility in negative situations (failures, conflicts, etc.) out of fear of being vulnerable and the other taking advantage of them. At the same time, they love and hate the authority that they mystify. ![]() They always believe they know how things should be done while submitting to their superiors at the same time. The conservation E6 has the competitive desire to take the place of the authority which tends to cause controversy. Given that they demand from themselves more and more, they can’t handle that it is other people that are accusing them and they continuously oscillate between victim and accuser. It is a form of paranoid thinking which incurs the following: other people are always ready to catch your faults, attack you, and criticize you, and if they do not, it is only because it is convenient for them to hide their intentions at the moment to ensure they punch down the line. Seeing themselves as constantly at fault, they also feel persecuted: they project their internal persecution externally. Therefore, the conservation E6 sees attaining love and appreciation through their own merits and personal value as impossible. Unconscious behaviors sometimes lead them to “turning themselves in” to get the punishment through which they, uselessly, hope they will be forgiven and “rescued.” This neurotic mechanism leads them to search for the love of one of their parents (usually the father) through the admission of fault and inadequacy, with the goal of forgiveness. This self blame is a way of controlling the world: “If it is my fault, I can do something about it.” Then, they look for punishment, as masterfully portrayed in Dostoyevsky’s Crime and Punishment, all with the hope of placating this uncontrollable self-persecution. The identification with the aggressor and introjection of an internal persecutor, to defend themselves from external threats, entail the development of a superego that constantly feeds the feeling of guilt. The Book was written by devoted followers and students of Claudio Naranjo but published under his name and supervised by him. The following Trait Structure are a summarized description of the original descriptions taken from the Enneagram 6 book/Cobardes, desafiantes y fanáticos: Las formas del Miedo. ![]() Naranjo would say that fear in the conservation sphere is a insecurity and unprotection, this character wants the warm benevolence of the other to feel that he will not be threatened by loneliness or the inclemency of life and the world, he believes he must be "good", suppressing and inhibiting his aggression and impulses. Ichazo called SP6 "Affection", resulting in a character that is afraid of everyone, believing that affection is the only assurance, so this excessive need for affectionate treatment leads to the repression of aggression. They also have difficulty in looking at things as black and white, as they can see multiple shades of gray in between everything. Fear here takes place as a constant submission in order to gain protection. Because they see others as a threat to their survival, they will try to befriend others and align themselves with them to ensure others won't lash out against them. The E6s Fear combined with the anxiety for survival of the SP instincts leads the SP6 to be anxious of everyone, and believe that the best way to avoid said anxiety is through warmth. ![]()
