The Hanged Man
Upright
Suspended, and seeing clearly for it. Surrender, a new angle, the pause that is not a loss.

Reversed
Stalling, martyrdom, a sacrifice that buys nothing.

In the Celtic Cross
Where The Hanged Man falls changes what it says. In the present it names the atmosphere you are in; as the crossing card it shows what lies over the matter; at the foundation it is the root of the situation; in the outcome it is the road ahead if nothing changes. Read the ten positions, or lay a spread and see where it appears.
