12 - Hanged Man"There ain't no free lunch"This belief characterizes the "Hanged Man" like no other. Only struggle leads to success and the one who doesn't struggle is a burden on everybody else. The situation can be seen from quite the opposite angle, the struggler creating a stressful and unsupportive atmosphere all around him, hanging onto colorfully alive people amidst his gray world(-view), thus effectively pulling down the energy of his surroundings. Midheaven/Neptune: Personal illusion, insecurity Theme for contemplation: Do you deserve to live? Affirmation: "My life is a gift from me to myself" Hint: Release all images of worth or worthlessness based on comparison. You have done nothing to live, and nothing is asked of you. All human expression is joyful life, even if camouflaged as "hard work". |
