The Hanged Man
Upright Meaning
This card invites you to see the world from a completely new perspective. The Hanged Man tells you that sometimes the most powerful action is to surrender and let go. By pausing and looking at things differently, you will discover insights that were hidden when you were pushing forward.
Reversed Meaning
When reversed, this card suggests that you may be resisting a necessary sacrifice or stalling on an important decision. The Hanged Man reversed warns against being stuck in indecision and encourages you to take the leap you have been avoiding. It may also indicate that you are fighting the natural flow of life.
