One of the things I love about Tarot is when I fully understand the meaning of a card because I am actually living it. This happened to me yesterday with The Hanged Man and Mercury retrograde. Currently Mercury is going backwards through my first house and it feels like he is spring cleaning my brain. He brought up an old issue that The Hanged Man wanted me to address. I’ve gotten this card many times in readings and had a Hanged Man year in 2010. But for me it has always been about me having to hang around and wait for something. I’ve read many meanings of this card and the most popular is the looking at things from a new perspective and letting go, neither of which I had experienced with this card before.
I did a reading in which the Hanged Man appeared and he was looking directly at an old issue from my past in the card next to him. I screwed my nose up at this, because it’s something I’m trying to move on from. So after scowling at my cards and calling them names I put them away and sulked in the corner. As I sat sulking I started to think more about the cards and what they meant at that moment in my life and after a while I had two big lightbulb moments. There I was looking at an old issue from a completely different view Hanged Man style. It has helped me a lot and yes it is helping me to let go of that old issue and now I understand what people talk about when they speak of this new perspective. Now I just have to hang around and wait to see what else Mercury will bring up !!!
