This legendary test can reveal the secret about your personality. You may have seen them in movies where the psychiatrist shows him patient these crazy inkblots and when the patient sees something in there, the psychiatrist may feel well; I have a psycho on my hands. But more than you now, these are called the Rorschach tests which are the most famous tests ever to have been formulated by a psychologist. The main Rorschach inkblots have been used by several eminent psychiatrists.
The Rorschach test is a complete personality evaluation with quite accurate answers. The test was invented by Swiss scientist Herman Rorschach who as a child loved playing the game called Blotto which was a favorite among children. He gave it a nickname called kleck after the German word klexographie. Kleck was a game of charades that required players to create stories from inkblots.
Herman Rorschach attended university in Zurich where he even attended lectures given by famous psychologist Carl Jung the founder of Analytical Psychology. The inkblots that he created came to be known as the Rorschach test where Rorschach found that people of the same personality type gave similar responses and those with mental disorders also related to each other in their responses.

When he gave his inkblots to be printed, the publisher agreed to print only ten. Although the initial pictures were well; defined and clear, the publisher printed them with bad quality and as a result they were blurred but Rorschach found this perfect to use. The ten inkblots were not planed in random order and were meant to be in sequence from 1 to 10.
Now take a look at all ten inkblots. You need to look at each inkblot for ten seconds. Then write down what you see in the inkblot or what you feel about it. You can even rotate the images when you see them portrayed individually in every point. If you do that, then the bet result will only be achieved if you don’t look at the answers. So let’s start.

Take a look at the inkblot and look at it carefully. You can save the image or enlarge it and even rotate it. It would be best to give common worded answerers like moth, female, butterfly etc. this shows how you react to certain situations.

If you saw a female figure in the middle and if it was insulting to you, then it means you suffer from lack of self-esteem. “She” is the projection of yourself. If you saw a mask, animal face or a jack o lantern, you could be paranoid.

In this card the most common answer is two females or two clowns. If you don’t see any human figures at all, it means you find it difficult relating to people. Looking deeper into the card, if you do see human figures and can tell what they are doing then this is what it means. Fighting means that you have a violent disposition to others especially if someone tries to piss you off. If you saw two human figures touching hands, it means you are a calm and composed person who won’t hurt anyone even if they are mean.

Focus on what you see for ten seconds. This may seem similar to the earlier inkblot and usually looks like two males to a heterosexual person and two androgynous persons to a homosexual person. This determines your sexual preference.

If it took you a long time to see the two figures or if you didn’t see anything at all, it means you are lacking in confidence around other people. It also means you belong to that 1/4th of people who took the test to find no humans in them.

This is known as the father card and reveals your feelings to authority.

You could have seen a man, a huge man, a bear, gorilla, Sasquatch. But what you see symbolizes your boss, the government or your parents and reveals how you feel about them. If you saw a monster with aggression, it could mean that you are intimidated by authority or your father.

Card 5 according to Rorschach himself was the easiest card where people could see just one or two things in there.

The most common answers for this were recorded as either a bat or butterfly. If you see moving people here or more images in this card in comparison to card 4 or 6, it means you could be having schizophrenia. By chance, if you saw crocodile heads on the end of the wings, it means you are highly aggressive too others.

Seeing things upside down isn’t a bad idea to gain new perspectives. The best way to read this card is to turn it around. It reveals the attitude of your sexual subconsciousness.

By looking at the card the right way up, it appears to be an animal hide. Seeing the card this way means you love tactile sensations but then if you turn it sideways or around, it might appear a boat or submarine. When it’s upside down or you may see shades of long nose men with a goatee or theatre masks. If you see both the boat and men, you take the dominant active sexual role.
If by chance you saw a rug or something that resembles a rug, it means that you have difficulties staying alone and always need to be in a relationship. To some, it may look like a mushroom cloud but that could mean you’re stoned or thinking too much about North Korea you could be Trump or Kim Jong Un taking the test.

Not a very colorful card but important no less. If card 4 was the father card, this is the mother card. Think carefully before forming an opinion in your mind about this card and as usual write it down.

Almost every person sees a woman or two girls in this card. Your feelings on this card or your description of this card reveals how you feel about your mother.
Did you see two women gossiping, fighting or two witches?? That’s not good! It means your relationship with your mother isn’t an ideal one that you would like it to be. If you saw thunderclouds in the inkblot? If yes then to some psychologists, it means signs of anxiety. If the white space between the two figures appeared as an oil lamp to you, it is regarded as a sign of schizophrenia.

Did you see a lion, bear, or pig? To get your reading of this card, it is important that you see a four-legged animal in the image. Psychologists feel that you may be mentally defective if you don’t see one. If it took some time to see the animal in the image or if it was difficult for you, then it means you have difficulty processing information. If you felt uncomfortable looking at this card, it denotes signs of anxiety.
The common answer is to see a four-legged animal. Acceptable common answers are butterflies, Christmas trees, ribcage, or a heraldic design. Frankly speaking, I saw a samurai warrior getting ready for a shootout.

Another colored card with a lot of imagery that can help you process something.

This is almost similar to card 5 and the lesser the responses the better the state of mind. If you struggled with responses over here then it’s ok too. Many see explosions, a map, even smoke or a colorful flower. If you see a mushroom cloud in the centerline, it could denote signs of paranoia. If you saw men fighting in the card, it could mean you are socially underdeveloped.
If you turn the card sideways, it is possible that you may see a man’s figure where many reported seeing Mark Twain, Teddy Roosevelt or Santa Claus.

The last card which is the best card has been saved for the last. Look at it carefully and note down your observations.

Unlike others, it is good if you see several images in this card. The multicolours should conjure up images like spiders, crabs, maple seeds, fried eggs or rabbit’s heads etc. The more images you see the better. This means that you are satisfied and content in life and have everything under control. If you saw few images, it could mean you are losing control on some aspects of life. If the card made you feel uncomfortable, it means that something is triggering you in your life making you crazy.

Now combine all your answers and put them together. If your answers were too original and unlike what has been mentioned here, then it is a sign of exceptional intelligence and creativity. If some of the points end up being right for you then it means we have measured your personality accurately.
On a more serious note, this is a generalized version of the test much like reading your zodiac and any in-depth evaluation of your psychological problems is best done by consulting a professional psychologist.
