The Hanged Man

Pausing and seeing things a different way.

What The Hanged Man can mean for your day

In tradition, a man hangs upside down by one foot from a tree, calm, with a glow round his head. He isn't being punished; he's choosing to wait. Today, if you're stuck, try looking at it from the other side instead of pushing harder.

Try: Think of a problem you have and ask how someone else would see it.
