Aspects of you is the most comprehensive piece of work I have read on the centres and instincts to date. Cicci explores the centres and instincts with great intelligence, clarity and in a way that is both ancient and innovative. In addition to the theory, she offers experiential exercises to help people get in touch with their own processes, and see/feel the theory in practice. The test she offers at the end of the book is more comprehensive than most tests for instincts, and offers a deep and thorough way to start to determine which may be your dominant instinct, and which may be your blind spot. Drawing on Russ Hudson’s excellent work on the instinctual ‘zones’, her test goes beyond the basic (and often somewhat misinterpreted) portrayal of the instincts. In addition, the theory and practice in the book take the reader into more clarity about what the centres and instincts are and how they operate. I would highly recommend this book to both beginner and advanced Enneagram students, as well as teachers and trainers.
