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 inkblots provide a complete evaluation of a person’s personality

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.

The Ten Inkblots

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.

What your answer means

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.

What you answer reveals

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.

What your answers mean

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.
