Type 5 Enneagram – The Wise and Private One
Type Five can be called the Investigator, The Thinker, The Innovator, The Observer, The Specialist or The Expert. Knowledge, understanding and insight are highly valued by Fives and they are constantly on a journey of learning. “A day without learning is like a day without sunshine.” They prefer to learn through reading and observing rather than participating right away. A type Five’s attention is drawn to the unusual, the overlooked, secretive, the occult, the bizarre or otherwise unknown territory where they can carve out a niche of expertise!
