The Hanged Man

The Hanged Man #12-Ruled by Neptune- Water Element

The Hanged Man is a card that speaks of surrender, letting go, self-sacrifice and seeing things with a different perspective.  The Hanged Man is a very spiritual energy.  I often think of the Beatles song "Let it Be" in regards to The Hanged Man.  There is often a feeling of suspension or walking through water.  Sometimes it feels like nothing is happening.  Neptune is a planet of gases and is seen as the planet of illusion, spirituality, psychic energy. imagination and fantasy.  Neither The Hanged Man or Neptune are very good at setting boundaries.  Working with Neptune can intensify one's Spiritual connection and psychic abilities.

Directions to create a Neptune Oil.
