If you’re curious, take a look at the optical illusion and observe your immediate reaction to it.

Was it the cat that first caught your eye? Or the mouse?

If you saw the cat first, you are likely self-sufficient, inquisitive, mysterious, playful, and agile.

You would rather do things on your own than have to rely on others for assistance.

And you are always looking for new to ways to learn, which manifests in you quickly switching between tasks and hobbies.

Those around you are intrigued and mystified by your secretive behaviours, but also love and appreciate your playful temperament.

If you saw the mouse first, however, you are more likely to be resourceful, adaptable, and vigilant.

You are also fearful in that you are shy or perhaps unwilling to mingle with others.

Switching between tasks and activities is a simple exercise for someone like you, because you are nimble and resourceful.

As well as being completely capable of solving difficult problems and adapting to any situation, you are hyper-vigilant and always aware of what’s happening around you.
