We are all moved in search of achievements and fulfilments, we carry the impulse of life in our essence, and therefore, naturally we want to create, transform and be transformed through our experiences, leave one state of consciousness, one situation and reach another more high. At first, the search for a more favorable situation, but we are not sure what will be required to support such a thing. However, how many times during this process do we silence our desire for fulfillment and truly reflect? Even when the universe seems to leave everything parked around us, just as a sign that a little more calm is now needed! See the teaching behind one of the most mysterious and enigmatic tarot cards, “The Hanged Man”
We expect from the world and the world expects from us
A little more patience. We started with this advice from singer Lenine and it’s no wonder – especially for those born up to Generation Y (1996), this text can fit the bill perfectly.
Since we were born, we have been driven by the expectations of others, whether they are aware of it or not. After all, a child is like a promise of life and happiness, it is a milestone in a person’s life. But it is humanly impossible not to place an expectation on what one loves or desires so much, and it is then that one forgets the complexity, hypotheses go beyond the limits and become pre-established and programmed goals, with a perfidious hope of wanting the good of others. others. that “has”. We are pulled in one direction and that little by little, as we grow and take care of our individuality, we are also invited by an elevated consciousness that generates the entire cosmos to dance with the conflicting differences of these expectations from others and from our own. own expectations.
“The Hanged Man” in us
This intimate battle can last for years, until, really tired of punching a knife, we are overwhelmed by mental, emotional fatigue or even in the most serious cases, by psychosomatic disorders affecting our body.
We then see an obstacle, without identifying that no matter how much time has passed, it is momentarily insurmountable, a barrier that is placed before us in such a concrete, almost palpable way, due to the agony, restlessness and frustration that has awakened in the our intimate, yet strangely invisible. We know that there is something to be done, but the expectations are so high and ambiguous that they leave us no space to dialogue with our feelings, emotions, rational faith, the other side of the force that governs the world. Confucius, the Chinese philosopher, wrote that everything in the universe seeks balance, but to reach it it moves in the direction of imbalance, until the opposing force is so prevalent as to force things to rebalance. It’s physics! The greater the energy disproportion, the greater the force to return to the equilibrium state.
When the body asks for a little more soul
The symbols present in the “The Hanged Man” tarot card are extremely clear and their position is absolutely strategic, as it precedes the Death card (as the end of a cycle), exactly symbolizing the time and agony that precede this end.
Meaning of “The Hanged Man” in our construction
The image on the card is composed of a human being, hanging by his right foot (reflecting the right hemisphere of our brain, linked to the observation and interpretation of the world around us. It is he who analyzes situations in general and offers an immediate response, a rationally planned movement). His left leg bends behind his right and strangely forms the number 4. According to Pythagorean numerology, this number reflects all that is tangible, solid and material. His pants are red which represent movement, momentum, willpower. All these elements indicate the discomfort that we would like to avoid, no external movement will solve. We will have to deal with the slowness, the arrest, the delay of the conquest. But in an antagonistic way, the lower part of the card “The Hanged Man” shows us tranquility in the face of being. With his hands (symbol of dexterity and aptitude) behind him, it’s hard to tell if he’s placed there and if he’s able to untie himself; a halo on the head indicating serenity and enlightenment; a blue shirt, which reminds us of moving water, an element that represents the origin of life, bodily and spiritual regeneration. In fact, the card “The Hanged Man” is a mystery! But also the representation that work is internal will serve to purify our motivations and emotions, scrutinize the expectations of others and also our expectations, thus avoiding the prolongation of the miserable condition that can lead us to indifference, to no longer caring about the discomfort that we try, avoiding even more the responsibility of untying ourselves with our own hands.
