Are enneagrams accepted by the church?

[Mavis_Kemnitz]

I have some young people asking about ennegrams Is there a church teaching on them? I don’t really know too much about them except they seem to be New Age and so I avoid that. It would be good to know though so I am able to share what the church teaches.
Thanks and God bless
