The Hanged Man

A figure is kneeling over a toilet bowl into which he is being sick. In his hand he holds a glass. Is it water to cleanse his body, or alcohol to propel him further into intoxication? His face is not visible and therefore we can not gauge if he is suffering or revelling in the purging of his digestive system. Why would some one drink to the point of being sick? The card is one of mystery. The Hanged Man finds pleasure in reaching this state of intoxication; he has a taste for what normality brands as distasteful.

Dignified: The sacrifice of present attitudes for the benefit of future gain. The road ahead may be one of uncertainty but go with the flow and life will find its own path. Below you lies discarded waste, in you hand is the key to progress, and above you lies the unknown. Suspend your judgement to follow your gut instincts, drink from the glass and embrace what the future has to offer.

Ill dignified: Your own self-obsession and self-indulgence have brought you to this place. The Hanged Mans face may be hidden but it is not hiding his discomfort. He fears to look up for he knows not what he will see. Too much too drink and all you'll be seeing tonight is the toilet bowl and your stomach contents.
