Change of heart, having your world turned upside down,
owning up to your mistakes, admitting wrong, accepting
responsibility and consequences

Choice requiring contemplation. Choice of a cosmic or
spiritual nature. Choice with long term effects. The
need to ponder choices - neeed to illuminate the area
of life where chaos/confusion lies.

Contrary to many other Tarot decks, the Hanged Man in the Thoth Deck doesn't seem pleased. There's no cunning smile on his face. The formulae of self-sacrifice and martyrdom which were one of the highest in the Old Aeon, is no longer valid. Self-sacrifice has become an abomination.
On the card we see a tortured man hanging from an
inverted Ankh, the Egyptian Symbol of life. It
symbolises the God's power to "go" as he please, to
enter whatever portal he may like. No doubt that the
card shows initiation, if however of an ancient kind.
The legs are crossed, symbolising the Cross of Light.
The torso and the arms of the figure is in the shape of
a triangle. This is the triangle of matter and
darkness. The card shows the descend of Light into
Darkness, which is the very essence of all kind of
initiation. Suggested interpretations would be
compulsory sacrifice leading to new insight or
initiation through tribulations and ordeals.

In the buddha dharma this srotapanna, the streamentrant,
i.e. he or she who is now wholly immersed
in the stream of developing spiritual awareness,
which runs through all the three times. It indicates
an about face for the whole being. A deep commitment
to the means of progress.

Whenever this card is drawn it means that there is a
feeling of punishment or loss or sacrifice but what
usually is happening is there is some area in your life
that you can't let go of and until you do you will
remain in a state of limbo.
Letting go of behavior patterns or thought patterns
(this card is rule by air) can be helpful towards
growth.

This is some kind of transformation which comes
with control. A doorway to pass through.
Anxious and frustration. Imprisoned by emotion.
Self-imposed limitations.
Move beyond ego...trust who you are.
DO IT!
Surrender. Break old patterns.

Willfully destroying yourself, or a part of yourself, so that a new and better thing may take it's place.
