Grab any object—a leaf, a coffee mug, even your own face in a mirror. Ask yourself: “Is there a line where both sides look the same?” For a square, you’ll find four possible axes: vertical, horizontal, and both diagonals. Go ahead, try it! A circle is the overachiever—it has infinite axes.
Don’t worry if it takes a few tries. Your first fold might be off, but that’s how you learn. You’re literally training your eyes to see balance.
Your Step-by-Step Cheat Sheet
First, pick a shape and imagine a line running through its center. Second, mentally (or physically with paper) fold it along that line. If the edges match like long-lost twins, congratulations—you found it!

For tricky shapes like a rectangle, remember: horizontal and vertical lines work, but diagonals often don’t (unless it’s a square). That “aha!” moment feels like solving a tiny, satisfying puzzle.
