Spinning Silhouette Illusion

At first glance, the silhouette is spinning clockwise. but according to the source website, and the small sample test group I showed it to; you can reverse the spinning.
---------------SPOILER----------------
Tip; look at the bottom shadow of the "spinning foot".

PS:
- I did NOT make this!
-Thanks to the person that did ^^

it spins naturally clockwise for me, but if I concentrate on the left hand side of her hip as we look at it, and her hand that appears in front/behind it, I can reverse the spinning quite easily.

Nice, very simple actually. The test is really just to show what's the natural way and tell you which of the brain parts you use the most... As far as i know after reading the description from where i got this...

the back of my brain hurts

[Re4mstr]

No pain, no gain! ;P

Does anyone else see it doing backflips now?

[RasmusVlogs]

I somehow got her to go anti-clockwise, but I can't get her back on track now -.-

I found a site that says if you see it spinning counter-clock wise more more left brain (more logical). If it's clock wise than your more right brain (creative).

Just look at the shadow. When she's going clockwise the raised foot appears to be swinging in front of the stationary one, and when she's going counterclockwise it appears to be swinging behind it. If you concentrate on the shadow and make it do the opposite in your mind, you can make her switch back and forth instantly.

you need to watch in different angles to make her spin counterwise , thats how u do it easy

@jugular911 i look at the stationary foot

[lightlearner]

ok here is a trick to get her to spin the other way if she is spinning left for you then look left away from the screen and make sure you can see her out the corner of your eyes then she will seem to go the other way and go a head and look dead on she will be spinning right in till your brain readjust to go back the way you saw it first,if she is spinning right for you then look left away from the screen and make sure you can see her out of the corner of your eyes

i can't seem to control when she changes direction. seems to happen randomly and very often to me. sometimes she switches direction for only a second before going back to the other way and sometimes she goes one way and i can't get it to change back.
