I can’t visualize anything really. It’s like I just think about its shape in an abstract since but I don’t actually visualize anything it’s all words and thoughts in my head, no images.

I heard this very often and am always quite curious about it, as I cant relate. Whenever I imagine something it's a mix of abstract, foggy stuff and vivid clear images. I don't "see" them, I think/dream them like replaying a visual input without involving the eyes.

Can you close your eyes and visualize a red, three dimensional star rotating?

[edgyquant]

Nope I just think about a star and it rotating but there is no visualization or images involved

What is a 3 dimensional star? A star is a 2D shape, so this statement is ambiguous

[neuronic]

Yes until I also visualized a derpy dog orbiting it whose tongue was hanging out.
