Type 5 – The Wise Person

Type 5 – The Wise Person
In their essence 5’s are in touch with ultimate truth. In their adaptation they are great lovers of knowledge. They are intense thinkers and synthesizers of information capable of designing complex systems and concepts. They don’t like to speak until they know what they’re talking about, and they tend to seek solitude in an attempt to prevent their energy from being unnecessarily drained. 5’s are looking for ways to explain the universe to themselves, and in doing so they try to think their way to enlightenment, and neglect their bodies and feelings. In their desire to stay out of the fray and forge protective boundaries, they forget that they are part of everything that is, and lose connection with their true ground of being.
