You feel a little confused and perhaps fearful because you sense or know that there is someone or something you need to give up to be able to move on. This self-sacrifice isn't always clear - you may not even know quite what or whom you should give up. This is a time of passage from one phase of your life to another and The Hanged Man can signify a time of spiritual development too. Perhaps you need to try and look at things from a different perspective.
The cards suggest that what you most want at this time is to know what choice to make - carry on as you are or take a risk? The risk offers excitement and change and staying as you are- well you know what that has to offer. Dare to love, dare to live?
You are afraid of taking action and lack confidence and willpower, but this is a time to be positive and proactive to prevent loss of momentum, delays and stagnation. Completion and success are only a step away. Don't give up, lose heart or change direction when you are so close to the finish line.
There's a possibility of permanence here. If you're considering a commitment in a relationship or marriage this is a good sign. However, question your motives because here we have temptation and addiction, and a desire to be controlled or controlling. So use your intuition and if you recognise what you feel is being sincere, great. If not you still have a chance to change direction. if considering giving up a bad habit, such as smoking or drinking for example, now is a good time to start.
This is a period of anxiety, depression and fear with all the turmoil and distressing events happening in your life. It's time to show what you are made of. What has now come to an end leaves room for brand new beginnings in life, love and career. However radical events may be in your life, believe that life goes on and life is what you make of it.
Your intuitive powers are at their height at this moment in time; only by listening carefully and trusting them completely can you embrace that power. Do this and you will make strong, clear, self-assured decisions. Allow for flexibility and expect promising outcomes.
