The Hanged Man Tarot card.
Part of the Tarot deck I created. I'm also working on a Tarot book...

O_o I keep on seeing this card. It is a bit disturbing, that. Not the image itself, but the reoccuringness.

Given the fact that I haven't shown this card in a whole lot of places, if you have seen it a lot, it might mean that you could perhaps search the reasons why?? The Hanged man card speaks of self sacrifice, introversion, pain, but ultimately, spiritual rewards. Overall a very spiritual card:-)

Not this exact card, but the Hangman Tarot in particular. :3 Thanks, though!

Very well excecuted, I applaud that.

The design is very Rider-Waite, though.... It would've been nice to see a more original interpretation.

There are reasons - of a mystical nature - why this set up is popular :-) And It preceded the Rider-Waite deck:-) But thanks anyway:-)

Sorry if what I typed was rude, I now read the previous comment and see all the reaserch behind it ( I understand the mystical reasons)... my main comment should've been that a different-more personal- interpretation would've been interesting, specially with all the work behind the piece.
