The Hanged
Man represents self-sacrifice. The seeker must decide to give something
up to attain something else that he or she wants. If the seeker

time to evaluate how you think and your associations; they may be
outdated.
Make sure

has passed. Refusing to accept reality. Playing the Martyr. Psychological
blocks. Not knowing went to call it quits and end your suffering.
