Coldest Winter

The Hanged Man in some decks is Odin, who hung on the world tree for nine days and received the runes. The tree is Yggdrasil, the living World Tree (notice the living branches), rooted in the underworld and supporting the heavens. The number 12 is a higher octave of the number 3, careful planning and orderly growth leading to spiritual development. 1(beginning)+ 2 (the reasoning force)= 3 (the product of rebirth). The rune is Nied. The ruling planet is Neptune, the planet of self-sacrifice and idealism. He is hanging on the tree of his own will. Notice the serene expression on his face. His legs are bent to form a cross, while his arms form an inverted triangle. This is an alchemical symbol meaning overcoming the personality and transmutating the lower passions into pure spiritual gold. Red pants represent human passion and the physical body. Blue coat for knowledge. Yellow (gold) shoes to represent his high ideals. The halo showing spiritual attainment, with the grey background suggesting invisibility (a good reminder to not flaunt your spirituality). This is the archetype to meditate on to help break old patterns of behaviour and bad habits that restrict you. Sacrifice and surrender will be applied to changing circumstances. These sacrifices will result in the obtainment of your desires later in life. Decisions that need to be implemented will be postponed. You'll have repeat clients, and some financial increase or profit, but will be waiting for something to happen or turn up, and will fear the work you're doing has little value, or that you won't be able to sustain yourself in the future. You will soon spend time in the home of a relative or dear friend that you haven't seen in a while and it will be very pleasant. The Hanged Man appears to be a captive, suffering an undeserved punishment under the power of an unknown malicious force. This initial impression generally leaves a reader with the uneasy feeling that the card portends disaster or trouble. However, when viewed more closely, the positive aspects of the card become more evident. The young man bears a peaceful countenance upon his face, much more the look of a man content with his fate than at the mercy of unknown powers. He also has a bright yellow halo around his head, suggestive of his purity and innocence. The Hanged Man is a willing victim, someone who has chosen the path of sacrifice to accomplish a higher goal. He hangs upside down upon a cross, like St. Peter who was crucified upside down for his witness to the message of Jesus. The Hanged Man represents the willingness to forsake the temptations of instant gratification for a higher cause, and because of his willing sacrifice he accomplishes the goals he has in his heart. When we encounter the Hanged Man, we should consider areas in our lives where we may need to act in a more selfless manner either for the benefit of others or for the fulfilment of our own deeper needs. In contrast, we may need to examine our life for areas in which we are giving too much to others at the expense of our own mental and spiritual well-being. What emotions does the image of the Hanged Man stir in you? This card represents self-denial, changes in fortune, or perhaps your patience and endurance will be put to the test. It means that when you come face to face with the reality of the situation in which you are in, you find something else which will prove of greater value to you. It may be that you have to sacrifice your previous beliefs or even way of life, but it is a time of renewal and your life will go forward. Faith. Reversal of thinking. Heart about head. Escapism or inspiration. Letting go. Spiritual breakthrough. Looking at things from another viewpoint. Need to relax. Dreaminess. Unreality. Affirmation: "My heart is a fountain of peace. I bathe myself in Divine Love." ~HangedManTarot
