倒吊人
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.
