A Spiritual Tool for Conversion: Enneagram I Workshop The Enneagram is a tool for gaining deeper self-knowledge. It is consistent with our Judeo-Christian tradition and teaches that each person is a unique manifestation of God and looks at ways that we unconsciously distort this reflection. Learning the truth about our gifts and compulsions gives us a greater freedom to relate to self, God and others.
