For this new moon, I have pulled one card
from the Thoth Tarot as to what energy I should embrace during this next cycle
of the Moon and I got The Hanged Man. Some of its keywords are: rigidity,
ending of a stagnated situation, new ways of looking at things, letting go of old
behavioral patterns. This hanged man has
nowhere to go. There is now way to escape his situation. His eyes are closed,
blind for everything which doesn’t align with his point a view. He is totally disconnected
from his intuition and heart centered wisdom.
Yet, since there is no way out the only forward
is to go within. Only then will the snake wake up and rise from the dark grave. Then the Hanged Man can find freedom from past
convictions and behavior. It is there and then that he can undergo a profound transformation.
He can free himself from the need of being always right and in control. If he can let go of these rigid ways of thinking
he will set himself free and become a different person altogether.
It’s is a lot for one lunation but I am
not surprised this card has comes up for me (again). If I will be able to only touch
the surface of this card during the next four weeks I will be thankful and content.
Habitual patterns created over many years are usually not discarded in a few
weeks.
Affirmation: “I will let go of my need to be in control all the time and realize
that life will present itself moment by moment”
