The Hanged Man
倒吊人
Aufrechte Bedeutung
The Hanged Man hangs upside down from a tree, yet his expression is peaceful—a halo surrounds his head. This card represents voluntary sacrifice, suspended action, and seeing the world from a completely different perspective. Sometimes we must stop pushing forward and allow ourselves to hang in uncertainty. The Hanged Man teaches that surrender is not defeat; it is wisdom. By letting go of control and viewing your situation from a new angle, insights emerge that were invisible before. This is a time for patience, contemplation, and trusting that stillness has its own power.
Umgekehrte Bedeutung
When reversed, the Hanged Man may indicate resistance to necessary surrender, stalling, or refusing to see things differently. You might be holding on too tightly to old perspectives, unwilling to make the sacrifice required for growth. It can suggest meaningless delay, feeling stuck without purpose, or martyrdom—suffering without the wisdom that should accompany sacrifice. The reversed Hanged Man asks: what are you refusing to let go of? What perspective shift are you resisting? Sometimes the only way forward is to stop fighting and allow yourself to see differently.
