Abstract:The Enneagram is a personality typology system with ancient origins, holding signi-ficant importance in both individual and collective psychological development processes. This system classifies human personality traits into nine fundamental types, each with its own complex and rich structure. In terms of its contribution to the teaching of Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge, the Enneagram aids individuals in better understanding and recognizing tselves, thereby contributing to their personal and spiritual growth. During the teaching process, the application of the Enneagram helps students learn about different personality types' understanding and behavior patterns, thus aiding in the development of their empathy skills. The Enneagram reveals the fundamental motivations, fears, and behavioral tenden-cies of each personality type, enabling individuals to comprehend the reasons behind their actions and make healthier decisions based on this understanding. This plays a significant role in the grasping and internalizing of moral and ethical values. Students' comprehension of their own personality structures through the Enneagram enables t to be more conscious and sensitive in social interactions, positively contributing to their moral development. Additionally, the Enneagram illuminates the spiritual journeys of individuals. It offers an in-depth view of the potential obstacles and strengths in the spiritual development of each personality type. This creates awareness for individuals to explore their inner worlds and mature spiritually. Integrating the Enneagram in Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge teaching helps students better understand spiritual values and live a life in harmony with these values. The Enneagram is a valuable tool in character education and spiritual development, which are core goals of Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge teaching. Understanding personality types deeply and integrating this understanding with moral and spiritual development helps students grow into more empathetic, morally mature, and spiritually enriched individuals. Key Words: Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge, Teacher, Enneagram.
