If you see 13-16 triangles
You're a keen observer. You notice details without losing sight of the bigger picture. You connect the dots and often read between the lines.
People like you are both intuitive and analytical. You know when something's not right, but you always look for logical explanations. In social situations, you're both empathetic and cautious: the perfect combination of heart and mind.
If you see more than 20 triangles
Perhaps you're a so-called "pattern amplifier." You see opportunities everywhere, even where they don't yet exist. Your creativity and imagination drive you to combine every little detail into a larger whole.
And here comes the viral myth: “The number of triangles you see determines whether you are a narcissist.”
People who overanalyze or exaggerate patterns sometimes tend to think egocentrically and assume their interpretation is the only correct one. This doesn't mean they're narcissistic, of course, but rather that they have a strong ego, a strong confidence in their own perception, and a drive to be right.
In moderation, it's a strength. But if you overdo it, it can make you less receptive to the opinions of others.
The fun of personality illusions
These tests aren't meant to diagnose anything; they're merely playful suggestions to help you think about how our minds work. Whether you saw 9, 13, or 27 triangles, what matters is why you saw them.
Are you more drawn to order or to fantasy? Do you focus on what's ahead or what might be behind you?
Our brains are designed to recognize meaning, even in the simplest forms. This makes people endlessly curious, and sometimes even surprisingly complex.
