Finally! She turns around!

I suspect many of you know this spinning girl …

If not … here’s a little catch-up …

Apparently, the majority of people see it moving anti-clockwise and use more of their left brain. While those that see it moving clockwise are meant to be right brainers.

• Left brain:
• 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:
• 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

Well … I’m not at all surprised to find myself in the “Right brain” group from this or any other test. But, it drove me a little crazy that I could *not* get her to spin the other way. I’d heard people say they could see her go both ways – but it seems that no matter how hard I looked and tried to talk myself into her moving the other direction, it simply didn’t seem possible.

Until tonight.

Phew. She still moves naturally clockwise for me – but after a serious concerted effort – I am now able to see her spinning the other direction.

I’m curious. Which way does she move for you?
