Enneagram 5w6s are extremely intuitive people, with the power of reading others to keep always a step ahead. They are rational and logical; and love to think about new ways do things. And they take action well too. Each goes all in when it comes to decision-making. Which doesn't mean they take risks. They'll actually thoroughly analyze the scenario and take every possibility into account before taking any steps. Jumping to the void it's not their style.
Both types with this mix are generally members of the Head Triad. So, they take things seriously and often overthink them. They're spontaneous when facing real-life challenges, but they don't really leave loose ends. They connect the dots and seek truth. One of the very distinctive areas of this subtype is that they are usually quite smart and clever, and use their intelligence to safeguard themselves and detect possible threats. This permanent alarm state makes them very reactive though and sometimes a bit defensive too. Despite being independent, in addition they need love and protection, which could be contradictory. But these opposing forces is what make them shine.
What is an Enneagram 5w6?
Type Fives, solitary, cerebral, and frugal, spend their lives collecting a success knowledge so that they may live simply without according to others. Type Sixes are oriented toward the physical needs of these social groups and families, and they are highly practical. A 5w6 continuously develops practical skills in addition to knowledge. Enneagram 5w6s seek to create useful information and abilities to the table in order to secure their place as an invaluable person in the group or team. 5w6s tend to be more collaborative than other Type Fives, although their basic fear of letting the group down often keeps them from assuming leadership roles.
This is actually the most observant, methodical, and analytical type. A 5w6 brings a calm, rational approach to any situation and they eagerly tackle challenging problems, often integrating important details that many would overlook (think Sherlock Holmes).
Enneagram 5w6 Strenghts
Enneagram 5w6 strength comes from their purposeful means of living. As they are always searching for meaningful things to accomplish, they acquire knowledge in various areas and know when and how to apply it. They are curious and goal-oriented, so they master new regions of expertise and easily stand out. They completely reject the notion of wasting their time, that's for sure. In this thirst for knowledge, dwells a restless anxiety that keeps them up and cautious of everything around them to prevent getting lost or feeling threatened. This sensitivity combined with their amazing creativity makes the 5w6 a very determined and analytical kind effective at establishing changes with methodical and strict rules.
Enneagram 5w6 Weaknesses
Enneagram 5w6 biggest weakness relates to the anxiety we talked about before. As they're constantly cautious and fully aware of these surroundings, they get thin-skinned and reactive. Their strong self-protection instinct makes them suspicious. While they love their independence, sometimes they draw from others and get too introspective, rendering it hard to allow them to talk with colleagues and co-workers. All this is actually the perfect condition to allow them to isolate much more and increase their anxiety levels. When uncontrolled, this could drain all of their energy and creativity making them insecure.
Conclusion
5w6 Enneagram types inherit most of these personality attributes from Fives. However, certain characteristics of Sixes is likely to be clearly evident. It's impossible that the exact same traits arrive in every 5w6 Enneagram individual. Rather, every person is composed of a varied configuration of those qualities. However, they will probably present with a lot of the characteristics of these dominant Enneagram type.
The primary wing isn't the sole personality influencer of 5w6 Enneagram types. The integration (or growth) and disintegration (or stress) Enneagram types also need to be factored in. Again, each individual will display some, not totally all, of those characteristics, and every case requires individual investigation.
