Have you ever wondered what your views on partnership and marriage say about you? Well, there’s an interesting picture that can provide some insight.
This curated image, created by The Minds Journal, combines five paintings and is considered an optical illusion. And guess what?
The first thing that catches your eye in this picture can reveal secrets about the most important things you need in your love life and partnership with others.
The team behind The Minds Journal, an online outlet dedicated to accessible resources for better living, hopes to shed some light on marriage and relationships through this abstract image. Each element in the picture represents a unique desire when it comes to love and relationships.
According to The Minds Journal, the first thing you see in the curated pictu
- The face of a man: you need to feel understood
- A man standing in a coat: you need to feel accepted
- A baby lying on a table: you need to feel nurtured
- A sorcerer reading: you need to feel spiritually connected
- Two women dressed in white: you need to feel challenged
If you saw the large face of the man in the painting first, then your primary need is to be understood in your relationship. Those who see the face are often “hard-working” people who “strive to be respected, admired and appreciated” in their marriage.
People who see the man standing in a coat on the right-hand side of the painting demand to be accepted in their marriages and relationships. The Minds Journal said that people who first notice the man in the coat have a “‘deep-rooted sadness inside their hearts.” The journal writes, “You have a clear understanding of the reality of life and realize that the balance between happiness and sadness is crucial for a meaningful existence. You know what begins will come to an end, just like everything in life, and this enables you to appreciate even the little things in life.”
Did you see the baby lying on the table? You have a need to feel nurtured by your lover. You’re in need of a “loving, caring” partner. The website writes, “You feel anxious and stressed easily, and most of the time you feel sleep-deprived. You have made crying a habit, and you find some solace in letting your tears flow at least once a week.”
