Enneagram Type 5: What You Need to Know About the Investigator

by Mari Silva

Take the first step toward self-discovery and connection!

Do you feel like something is missing in your life - like there’s got to be more?

Do you keep running into the same problems regardless of where you go or who you’re with?

Are you tired of your fears dictating your choices and telling you how to live, behave, think, dress, and eat?

If you’ve answered “yes” to any of these, take a moment to applaud yourself for noticing that something is wrong. All these are symptoms of being disconnected from yourself.

This journey starts by knowing your Enneagram personality type. Those who fall under Type 5, the focus of this book, are smart, analytical, and exceptionally curious. They love to entertain new concepts and note the patterns they see in their environment. They’re also the ones mistakenly labeled “shy” as a kid when they were just content to be in their own heads because, let’s face it, a Type 5’s mind is fascinating. With all that brainpower, however, come a few challenges that tend to affect 5s deeply.

On this journey, you
You are beautiful, and you deserve to exist freely and live life to the fullest. If you don’t already know that, you’ve wasted enough time believing all the wrong things. In knowledge, mindfulness, and self-love lie the keys to your growth. Now is the time to start your journey toward a more mindful existence.

This was a great primer! The book has one of the best descriptions I have read of “wing theory” and how the 4 and 6 wings reflect in being a 5. The only thing I think this book could have done better with was a more robust description of the instinctual subtypes (sp, so, se), but that doesn’t take away from anything in the book; it just would have made the book feel more complete!

The Investigator, Type 5 Enneagram is an interesting read. It shows the reader how a Type 5 interacts with other Types of Enneagrams. A person can find out what types of the Enneagram are compatible with them and how they can co-exist with co-workers and family.

If you are new to the enneagram this is really helpful. Sometimes it seemed to repeat itself. What I found most helpful was not learning about the core type itself but things like the wings and disintegration number. I wasn't sure if I was a 5w4 or 5w6. And this book helped me figure it out.
