Imagine the form of the Enneagram projected onto a gridded crossword space — an “Enneagram Crucigram”

The result is a (roughly) circular puzzle, with 9 vertex points (gray squares): clockwise from top: 9, 1, 2, …. Black squares trace an inner 3-6-9 triangle.

The puzzle’s theme: a typical name for each Enneagram type begins/ends at (or near) its point; a corresponding bold “#” clue indicates its starting location. Other words — some from psychology and philosophy — fill out the structure.

Like the enneagram, clues might lead to different answers.
