Anyone ever tried to correlate ennnegram with the melancholy, sanguine, phlegmatic, and choleric temperaments? Here is how I think they are correlated.
1 choleric (or possibly a combo of choleric/melancholic if a 1w9)
2 sanguine (maybe a little phlegmatic thrown in?)
3 choleric? with some sanguine thrown in if 2 wing and some melancholy thrown in if 4 wing. I'm not sure about this one. Definitely not phlegmatic)
4 melancholy
5 phlegmatic with maybe some melancholy on the side if 4 wing
6 This is hard to choose one temperament for. The phobic sixes are probably more melancholic/phlegmatic and the counterphobic ones are more
choleric. Those with a seven wing are more sanguine than those with a 5 wing.
7 sanguine (maybe a little choleric too if an eight wing)
8 choleric
9 phlegmatic
