 Ennead - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ennead (a word derived from Greek, meaning the nine) is a grouping of nine deities, most often used in the context of Egyptian mythology.
Some Pharaohs created Enneads that incorporated themselves; most notably, Seti I in his temple at Redesiyah worshipped the Ennead that combined six important deities with three deified forms of himself.
Pyramid Texts mention the Great Ennead, the Lesser Ennead, the Dual Ennead, plural Enneads, and even the Seven Enneads.

The Ennead is in festivity, and heaven is in joy.
The Ennead said to Banebdjede, the great living god: It is (already) a first time that they have been adjudged in the "One are the Truths" court.
And the Ennead said to Shu, son of Re: Horus, son of Isis, is correct in all that he has said.

 Egyptian Mythology,
From this myth of creation came the conception of the ennead, a group of nine divinities, and the triad, consisting of a divine father, mother, and son.
The origin of the local deities is obscure; some of them were taken over from foreign religions, and some were originally the animal gods of prehistoric Africa.
As the religion became more involved, true deities were sometimes confused with human beings who had been glorified after death.

 The Ennead of Heliopolis I
That is to say that there was an ennead (or pesdjet) in the temple of Abydos consisting of seven deities and in the temple complex at Karnak there was as many as fifteen.
The term Ennead is Greek and mostly used when speaking of these nine gods of Heliopolis.
What happens next is probably a clever invention of the Heliopolitan priests; they incorporated the Osiris cycle of myths into the ennead.

Likewise they call the Ennead "Oceanus" and "Horizon," for these two things encircle the world and contain everything inside themselves; and they call it the Heavenly Sphere because that sphere, the Ninth, surrounds the planets, the stars, and the earth.
The Decad, however, since it is beyond the Ennead, is called Unlimited and Infinite.
The Ennead is also called "That which Brings Completion," Fulfillment, Attainment, Incorruptible, Perfection and even Thrice Perfect, because the Triad is perfect and the Ennead is the Triple Triad.

I personally find the Enneads of Plotinus to be my "Bible", his concise and laser-like accuracy to logic and emphasis of "Union with the One" to be the Paramount of metaphysical writtings.
Its unfortunate that so many Christians seek 'God-talk' in the works of Plotinus, when in fact there are none, for Plotinus, an Emanationist who speaks of the insentient Absolute, the Divine, is utterly opposed to a sentient self-aware Creationistic GOD who holds the fate of mankind in his hand.

 Harvard University Press/Plotinus, Ennead 5
His writings were edited by his disciple Porphyry, who published them many years after his master's death in six sets of nine treatises each (the Enneads).
Plotinus regarded Plato as his master, and his own philosophy is a profoundly original development of the Platonism of the first two centuries of the Christian era and the closely related thought of the Neopythagoreans, with some influences from Aristotle and his followers and the Stoics, whose writings he knew well but used critically.
