The Hanged Man – Let Go! – 12th Tarot Card
The Hanged Man hangs from a tree which forms a Tau cross, his legs form a fylfot cross, and he has a circle of light about his head. Three points of interest, he has an expression of deep entrancement on his face and does not appear to be suffering, the tree he is hanging from is alive, with leaves, and the figure suggests life in suspension, and not death. In one aspect this cards shows a relation between the Divine and the Universe.
The card signifies sacrifice before moving forward. Perhaps something (mental, spiritual, etc) needs to be let go. Look at a problem from a different view and struggling is most likely not the answer.
Upright: Wisdom, circumspection, discernment, trials, sacrifice, intuition, divination, prophecy.
Reversed: Selfishness, the crowd, body politic.
