The Spinning lady illusion





Which direction is she spinning for you?

For me it is always clockwise.

I saw this test the other day. At first it was anti-clockwise, then later it was clockwise, then I learnt how to reverse it with a few seconds of focus, now I see both.

What dose it mean if it is spinning one way or the other?

I change direction of her by expecting when the toe is extended out to the left to pass in front of the verticle leg instead of in behind it.
So it turns out it is not always clockwise.

I'm predominantly anti-clockwise but it did switch after a long while.

Mainly clockwise, but it did switch after a while.

I can only see clockwise... especially if you watch the planted foot. The 3d-placement of hair, limbs, body... it's perfectly clockwise. I can't see how it could be anything else....

if you watch for a while she definitely does switch...it is not an illusion caused by shifted prspective or anything.

Alternates randomly, though I picked up clockwise first. That's wild. I guess the best answer would be "both clockwise and counterclockwise, since they project the same image." I'd be more interested to know which direction people saw first. /m

At first clockwise, but now both clockwise and anticlockwise alternate.

All I see is clockwise.I watched for quit a while and do see it changing.

Clockwise, I think I saw it go counterclockwise for a second though it was weird.

I can switch with ease at will now, but at first glimpse it is always clockwise

It was counterclockwise for a long time until I finally saw it go clockwise. Now it changes but only after blinking and looking again.

Nobody notices that she's naked?

First I see her clock wise then I saw her counter clockwise. But the clockwise motion seems more natural for her posture so I think that would be first to come to mind. But I see that others find it otherwise.
