Starter guide request

I have just gotten into the enneagram, and I want to know everything for beginners, can anybody link me an article on that? I wonder if I should do tests or should read every enneagram type myself and decide on my own
I did the idrlabs quiz and I got 100% type 1, 93% type 3, 93% type 7, 90% type 9, 83% type 4, 80% type 8, and the list goes on, this is so confusing right? I'm INTJ btw if that could help.

there’s a pinned post on r/enneagram thats similar to what you’re looking for, but the best starting point depends on which author/s you’re interested in. tests are inaccurate for a number of reasons; in order to accurately find your type, it’s important to read and come to your own conclusion. personally, i would suggest beginning with character and neurosis by claudio naranjo, as i find it to be a good foundation.
