Yes, one wing acts with the main type, the other acts against it.

The problem is diving too deep into the enneagram and converting it from a dynamic perspective into a static one. Emily has 2 wing points active with her main point, so she has more variation or potentially more, in her personality than someone with a more dominant wing. This is especially true if the wings are strongly influencial, which doesn't seem to be the case.

Emily, I suggest you use the enneagram loosely and not try to rigidly adhere to any specific typing strategy. Your point and wings are tendencies or habits, not etched in stone. Recognize them as your starting point to move on around the Egram.
