The Hanged Man

Element: Water

Planet / Zodiac: Neptune

Upright

Voluntarily pause your efforts, sacrifice old desires, and look at your problems from an entirely different perspective. Surrender control to let things resolve naturally; stalling is sometimes progress in disguise. Patience is your greatest asset here.

Reversed

Egotism, stalls, useless sacrifice, and stagnation. You might be holding onto a losing battle or refusing to let go of control. Shift your point of view and accept that some things cannot be forced.

Symbolism

A man suspended upside down from a T-shaped wooden cross by one leg, with a glowing halo of spiritual enlightenment around his head.
