The Hanged Man

January 2024

Suspended in time, The Hanged Man embodies the power of surrender, stillness, and deep introspection. Whether chosen or unforeseen, this pause invites reflection, realignment, and a shift in perspective. As the 12th card in the tarot, The Hanged Man is deeply connected to Neptune, the planet of dreams, intuition, and boundless imagination. It is also connected to the sign of Pisces, known for its spiritual depth. The figure’s inverted posture mirrors the alchemical symbol for sulfur, a celestial element representing transformation and the potential for profound change.

Drawn to this card intuitively, I felt compelled to recreate it through my own artistic lens, using only natural elements and astrological symbols. As I immersed myself in the creative process, I found myself meditating on its energy, uncovering personal revelations along the way. It became an act of healing. This piece is a quiet reminder that stillness is not stagnation but a space for growth, clarity, and renewal.
