Individual Card Meanings
The Hanged Man
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. 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.
