Hello, my name is Hillary McBride and welcome to the liturgist podcast.

This episode in the Anyagram subtype series is all about the heart type.

In just a few minutes I'm going to be handing you over to a conversation between Mr. Science Mike and Annie Diamond

and their conversation about these numbers within the heart type, numbers 2, 3, 4, and the subtypes within each of those numbers.

For those of you who are just joining us or those of you who are new to the Anyagram,

the Anyagram represents nine different archetypes or ways of seeing the world or motivations within which we use to interact with or make sense of the world within us and around us.

And those nine types can be clustered or grouped based on instinctual centers, so the head type, heart type, or gut type.

You can go back to the first episode in this series to listen to Annie and Mike talk about the gut type, which is numbers 8, 9, and 1,

and the episode that just came before this one, which was all about the head type, numbers 5, 6, 7,

and today their conversation is going to be covering the heart type, numbers 2, 3, and 4.

So although that might seem simple enough, things get a little bit more complicated or perhaps clarifying when we think about subtypes within each number.

And that's how we can make sense of how there are so many people in the world who see the world so differently, but all can fit within one of these nine types.

So we've got three subtypes, and that means that within each number of the nine numbers of the Anyagram, there are three variations on how people move through the world or make sense of things around them.

And these subtypes are all based on our evolution as humans, and what we've needed, and what kind of survival strategies have been useful for us,

that shape how our number shows up for us, or which kinds of elements are drawn out or oppressed.

These subtypes are self preservation, which tends to be about responding to perceived threats as well as needs, the social subtype,

which is about creating social structures within communities, and then the one-to-one subtype, which is all about primary relationships or coupling.

Today's episode is all about the heart type, numbers 2, 3, and 4.

And if you're not familiar with the heart type, these are types that are centered around feeling, which emphasize the heart for positive and negative feelings,

empathy, concern for others, romance, and devotion.

For people within the heart type, the focus tends to be on success and relationships, performing up to expectations, in jobs or in relationships placed on them by themselves and others.
