How to Unite two Powerful

Maps to Ignite Creativity


IEA Global Conference 2023
Alessandra Furvis

WWW.ENEAGRAMACREATIVO.COM
Presentation Goals

1. Approaching a methodology that


combines Astrological Chart and
the Enneagram to ignite the
Creative Potential.

2. Identifying Astrological Chart


elements as indicators of ego type
structure.

WWW.ENEAGRAMACREATIVO.COM
Starting points
1. Discovering the common roots of Enneagram and
Astrology back in the ancient World.
2.Research on more than 150 birth charts, looking for
indicators of different personality types and
structures.
3.Essential Coaching with Enneagram: getting rid of
personality patterns is what allows us to go back to
authenticity and creativity.
4.Evolutive Astrology: the position of the planets at
the time of our birth symbolizes how inclined we are
to approach life in a unique way.
5.This approach is not deterministic, it’s rather a
starting point which suggests ways to detect and get
out of the autopilot, or reactive ego-mode.

WWW.ENEAGRAMACREATIVO.COM
Methodology
1. In this presentation we will see some of these
indicators and examples of the Eneagrama Creativo
methodology, that allows us to:
• formulate more accurate hypotheses about ennea-
type structures
• define personalized, step-by-step creative
unlocking processes.
2.My methodology is intended to unite, without
merging, these two millenary models, using them in
different steps of the creativity coaching process,
thus keeping their powerful integrity.

WWW.ENEAGRAMACREATIVO.COM
Why the focus on
Creative Unlocking?

Creative unlocking is for everyone, not


only for “artistic people”, because
Creativity is the awareness process
allowing us out of the repetitive patterns
of the ego and its limitations.

Nowadays, business as usual allows no


creativity, and it is the straightest way to
human extinction.

WWW.ENEAGRAMACREATIVO.COM
If the Law of Seven did not exist,
everything in the world would march
towards its final conclusion, but because of
this law, everything deviates.

For example, if it started to rain, it would


never stop [...] but it stops because, with
every missing semitone, things deviate,
they don't march in straight lines.

The Law of Seven also explains why there


are no straight lines in nature.
