Tarot Of The Old Path HANGED MAN number = 12 Hebrew letter = Mem (Water) key = 23 path = Stable Intelligence astrological planet = Neptune element = Water keyword (upright) = spirituality, intuition, self-sacrifice keyword (reversed) = faithless, bound by convention, boredom, stagnation, impatience The Hanged Man brings us the necessity to see things from a completely new perspective. (Note that he is only loosely bound by his own conventions.) Peace through the Hanged Man comes from inner contemplation and self-sacrifice. The wisdom of the Hanged Man is that of release of old habits/ideas/ways fo doing things, and being able to see from a fresh perspective. ~~~~~ affirmation: "Seeing through new perspectives brings clarity and truth - a sacrifice I willingly make." ~~~~~ Bibliography Greer, Mary K.
