If you've been feeling tired this week, this optical illusion might be able to tell you why.
There's no shortage of optical illusions that claim to be able to tell you something about your personality, and they work by using a blend of images and shapes to create a larger picture that can form two or more possible images. Then, depending on what you see first when you look at the bigger picture, secrets about your personality could be revealed.
In this particularly puzzling photo, one TikTok user has claimed that what you see first could mean you're "exhausted", or even that you have "wisdom beyond your age". So why not take a look and see what you can discover about yourself?
In a shared on TikTok by Mia Yilin, who posts under the username @mia_yilin, the woman showed a picture of a cat that appears to have the face of an owl. The picture is part of a series of artworks created by a French artist who posts on Instagram under the username @les.creatonautes.
According to Mia, whether you noticed the cat or the owl first could tell you a lot about what you're like as a person. If you first noticed the owl's facial features, that means you're a "trustworthy" person, but you often find yourself "exhausted" because you keep juggling too many things at once.
Mind-bending optical illusion makes your brain 'adjust' after 10 seconds
The woman said: "If you first saw the owl, then you're a competent and trustworthy person in your family and friend group. You often feel like you can never catch a break trying to help everyone while also juggling lots of personal work. It's exhausting but you just can't help your selfless nature."
But if your eyes were drawn to the body of the cat before anything else, then you have "wisdom beyond your age" and are something of an "old soul". The content creator explained: "If you first saw the cat, then you are an old soul. You're someone who demonstrates maturity and wisdom beyond their age. You feel emotions intensely and get attached to things like music, movies, and people very quickly."
People in the comments were blown away by how accurate Mia was with her analysis. One person said: "[I saw] a cat, and that is sooo me," while another added: "Couldn't be any more correct," and a third questioned Mia's ability to keep getting the right read on them, asking: "How do you keep doing this?"
