Greetings all!
Do you like optical illusions? Do you like personality tests? Read on!
I think optical illusions are super-fun because there are several ways to
interpret them – and we all see them differently! Apparently the way we
interpret optical illusions might reveal how you experience the world.
Here are several optical illusions from https://www.ranker.com/list/pictures-that-reveal-personality-traits/donn-saylor.
Take a look
and see if you agree with the explanations of your character below depending on
what you see first!
Do You See A
Young Woman Or An Old Man?

The young woman/old man illusion is one of the more
psychologically revealing optical puzzles. If you immediately see the back of a
young woman's head, you tend to be an optimist, and your natural inclination is
to look on the bright side of life. Your impulsivity and thirst for adventure
may be a little too much for some people, but you are generally viewed as a
positive person who makes others comfortable and happy.
If you see a
mustachioed old man looking downward, you are more of a critical thinker. You
also possess a great deal of sensitivity and empathy. Those who know you
turn to you for support and guidance because you are both a logical adviser and
an understanding friend. You have very high ideals, and while some people may
fall short of these ideals, your innate compassion allows you to quickly
forgive them.
Do You See A Lynx Or A Bird?

In the accompanying image, do you immediately see a lynx? Or do you see a
bird with its wings spread? Your answer could tell you a lot about how you
approach work.
Those who
see the lynx tend to be big-picture thinkers: people who can come up with
ideas, assemble teams, and ensure projects are followed through to the ultimate
goal. Those who see the bird first are natural entrepreneurs, go-to types who
can always be counted on to know how to get things done.
This image
was created by Company Funding Circle, who worked closely with
psychologist Dr. Rebecca Spelman to develop the test.
Do You See A Young Woman Or An Old Woman?

Viewers will either see a young woman in hat and veil looking back, or an
old woman with a protruding nose looking to the left of the image. What
this picture supposedly reveals is less about personality or character and
more about age.
According to
researchers, young people see the young woman first, and older folks see the
older woman first. So, perhaps if you're a young person who sees the old woman
right off, you've got an old soul. If you're an older individual who instantly
identifies the young woman, perhaps you're young at heart.
Do You See A Vase Or Two People Facing Each Other?

A Danish psychologist and philosopher named Edgar John Rubin first
devised this classic optical illusion. What does it say to you? Is it an
image of two people in profile facing one another, or an ornate vase?
If you see
the vase first, you are seeing the bigger picture with less focus on the
details, so you are likely a "bigger picture" thinker. If you see the
two people in profile first, your eyes are picking up on the details of each
silhouette, so you are likely someone who zeroes in easily on
particulars and senses the steps that must be accomplished to reach a goal.
Do You See A Woman Looking In A Mirror Or A Skull?

This is "All is Vanity," an 1892 drawing by artist Charles
Allan Gilbert. Viewers tend to see one of two things: a woman looking in
a mirror, or a large, ominous skull.
Given the
popularity and long history of this image, its interpretation in relation to
the viewer's personality has been the subject of much debate. There is the
classic interpretation centering on detail. If you first see the woman, you
probably tend to life's details and make concrete steps to goals, but
if you see the skull first, you might be a bigger-picture thinker who is better
at aiming for long-term objectives.
Much has
also been said about this image's dual meaning. The woman looking in
the mirror could be seen as vain, and the skull could be a reminder that,
in the end, vanity gets us nowhere because we all end up in the same condition.
Perhaps, then, what one immediately sees says something about their own
vanity.
