    and I see both, and can change the rotation if I concentrate. though I mostly see her spinning clockwise until i concentrate.

    Quote Left Or Right Brain?
    If you see this lady turning clockwise, you are using your right brain. If you see it the other way, you are using your left brain.
    Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one way.

    See if you can make her go one way and then the other by shifting the brain's current.


    Quote Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking.

    The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking:

    Left Brain......................Right Brain

    Logical..........................Random
    Sequential.....................Intuitive
    Rational.........................Holistic
    Analytical.......................Synthesizing
    Objective......................Subjective
    Looks at parts................Looks at wholes

    Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes. In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking, while downplaying the right-brain activities. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.

    Both work. When I stare as if I'm waiting for an idea to pop in my head, or be in that relaxed place in mind, she turns counter-clockwise. I see this as a good focus tool, or at the very least a confirmation tool that both work together.

    My focus/think place is in the heart-mind. So I tried it out. It goes both ways. That's really good and new information for me on the heart/brain connection. So thank you, Spirit Horse!

    The mobile is amazing and very pretty.
    Im predominantly right brain but can see anti clockwise too-- assuming it doesn’t just change rotation itself.
    Very clever anyway

    I originally saw it with my right, then changed it , it changed back ,and i felt like my head was going to eplode when i tried to get it going counterclockwise. I hope I made a new left brain wrinkle, lol.

    Now I can't get her to make a complete counter clock wise circle, it always switches back to clockwise at the half way point... funny to see her wobble clockwise then counter clockwise...

    I always liked that GIF.

    OK...for a couple minutes I thought maybe I was slightly handicapped and maybe no one had ever had the nuts to tell me because for the life of me I couldn't get her to change directions no matter how long I tried staring or relaxing or concentrating...so I figured I would try looking at her upside down....yes, on my head....it worked! now I can change her directions easily! Brain just needed a kick start......lol

    For the record, I am clockwise dominant.

    Couple of ideas:

    Try the daydream stare or when you empty the mind for an idea to pop up. She'll counter clock. It's not looking but seeing it turn. What? If you daydream stare and then peek to see if it's working, that's putting the mind to task. Just allow and she'll reverse.

    I'd also suggest that you know when you swing high on the swing, and then you are about to come down? There's that point when the stomach laughs and giggles. Apply that feeling and watch her go counter clockwise. It's a switch in energetic frequency.

    I saw it anticlockwise first, then I blinked and saw it clockwise ... If I blink slowly, or change the viewing angle, I can flip between the two. It's fascinating, thanks for posting

    Ok, I'm sitting here practicing with this thing (instead of getting my laundry done) and it definitely doesn't change directions on its own...in fact, you can make it seem as if she is simply hopping to the left and right with her leg outstretched of you want, and seems to be the easiest way for me to get her to change direction. Maybe try the standing on your head for a few seconds, the change in perspective throws off your expectation of her movement while your brain calibrates for the change of visual imput. =)
