Right or Left?

[jannieC]

I have no idea if this is meaningful or not, but it's fun.



Is the woman spinning clockwise or counterclockwise?
















What it means:

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception
knows object name
reality based
forms strategies
practical
safe

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling
"big picture" oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking

My husband and I both saw her going in opposite directions (him right, me left) and we were arguing about it! LOL What do you see?

She looks well - and is going anti (counter) clockwise.

i got this in an email earlier and it started out going clockwise, and then i got her going counter-clockwise. just can't figure out how to get her going the other way again


i think it has to be fixed because i was just watching it again and she was spinning clockwise then out of no where started going the other way...hmmm

I just want to see her come out of the darkness.

All I can see is clock-wise....I can't get her to change, no matter how long I stare.

No because Jeff and I were looking at it *together* and still both saw her going in different directions!

I can't either, Curtis. BTW, it's so nice to see you back here!

I stared at this & stared at this (essentially to see whether the figure would "reverse") & this figure definitely spins clockwise in my perception. It's as clear as day to me, & it didn't reverse after staring a long time.

David, I even tried to show my husband how I see it counter-clockwise. I said that she is *clearly* standing on her right foot and spinning to the left and even followed her progress with my finger. It's so bizarre.

She's only going counter-clockwise to me. Can't get her to go clockwise at all!

It is! I don't understand how you see it counterclock. How do we all see it differently?
I think we're all messed up on prescription drugs or something. I take Benicar so it's probably too much Benicar.

How weird. First she was going counter-clockwise, then I looked away for a second and when I checked again, she was suddenly going clockwise.

I'm with Michelle... this is fixed. I can't get her to go back again.

[ontheEdgeof17]

oh fug! She just switched on me.


RIGGED!

Same with me and my sister. My sister discovered that when she starts doing math out loud, she switches.

When I first opened the page, she appeared to be spinning counter-clockwise.

Then I looked away and when I turned back her direction had changed.
I looked away again and it stayed the same.
Then I looked away a third time and she had changed again.
