Are inkblots meaningless smears of ink, or the secret key to your personality?

N5?°??.??? W001°??.???

The inkblots below are all genuine, as used in the Rorschach test. Psychologists use this test to try to examine the personality characteristics and emotional functioning of their patients. The Rorschach is currently the second most commonly used test in forensic assessment, after the MMPI, and is the second most widely used test by members of the Society for Personality Assessment. It has been employed in diagnosing underlying thought disorder and differentiating psychotic from nonpsychotic thinking in cases where the patient is reluctant to openly admit to psychotic thinking. Dare you take the test, and find the cache co-ordinates therein?
