If you see 13-16 triangles
You are a keen observer. You can see the details without losing sight of the big picture. You check how things are connected and often read between the lines.
People like you are both intuitive and analytical. You sense when something is wrong, but you always look for logical explanations. In social situations, you are both empathetic and cautious – the perfect blend of heart and mind.
If you see more than 20 triangles
You might be one of those so-called "pattern amplifiers." They see opportunities everywhere, even where they don't yet exist. Your creativity and imagination drive you to combine every little detail into a big whole.
And that's where the viral legend comes in: "The number of triangles you see determines whether you are narcissistic."
People who overanalyze or exaggerate patterns sometimes tend to think egocentrically, assuming their interpretation is the only correct one. Of course, this doesn't mean you're narcissistic, but rather that you have a strong ego, great confidence in your own perception, and a desire to be right.
In moderation, it's a strength. But if it's excessive, it can make you less receptive to the opinions of others.
The pleasure of illusions of personality
Such tests are not intended for diagnosis – they are merely playful suggestions to encourage reflection on 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 fantasy? Are you focused on what's in front of you or what might be behind you?
Our brains are designed to recognize meaning, even in simple forms. This makes people infinitely curious – and sometimes wonderfully complex as well.
