Family, Friends & Relationships:

It’s possible that there is an outdated attitude or wish that you need to let go of. Any sacrifice that you make will open up your life to something even more positive than what you ‘let go of.’ All in all this should be a thoughtful, reflective time, particularly if you are willing to look at if or how you might best serve your own interests by being willing to change.

Card Meanings: Boredom, Feeling Trapped, Rebirth, Confined, Uncertainty, Lack Of Direction, Self-Limiting, Reversal, Change, Needing Release, Improvement, Suspension

The Hanged Man generally shows that you are at a crossroads – one with only two options i.e. in or out, up or down, yes or no. You may find yourself very much wanting to do ‘something’ but having no idea what it is or how to do it. If that happens, that’s a clear sign that you should stop, relax, and look at ways that you might need to let go of attempts to control life/situations/people/things.

Book Details
Elements of the Psychic World: According to the earliest records Glamis Castle was originally a hunting lodge owned by lords of Glamis, who are thought to have lost their fortune through drinking and gambling. By the middle of the seventeenth century the castle was in a state of ruin. The family fortune was rebuilt by Patrick Lyon, who was made the Earl of Strathmore, but by the eighteenth century the family had fallen back into its bad ways.

Portable Magic: Triangle: In traditional ceremonial magic, the triangle is where spirits are evoked, or called forth into manifest existence. The triangle of realization in Tarot magic is the place where the ritual purpose is realized. It is constructed outside the bounds of the circle from the three elemental trumps the Fool (Air), the Hanged Man (Water), and Judgement (Fire). The point at the apex of the triangle, defined by the Fool, is opened during ritual to create a doorway connecting the desire of the magician within the circle with the realization of that desire within the triangle, and by extension the greater world.

Tarot Triumphs: 59 This image of a boy on horseback in conjunction with the Sun appears only once in traditional Marseilles packs, to my knowledge, in the rather quirky Vieville Tarot of 1650. It is thought to be the inspiration for the Sun in the contemporary Rider-Waite pack.

Tarot for Beginners: Reversed, the Hanged Man may indicate that it is you who is causing the immobility. You may be avoiding making a life-changing decision for fear of the initial discomfort it will cause. Fear of change is very powerful, even when we know the change will ultimately lead to better circumstances. Beware of betraying yourself in the effort to stay in your comfort zone.
