Renaissance Tarot
The Hanged ManA suffering figure is suspended by one leg below a small figure of the Titan Prometheus. As punishment for taking fire from Olympus and giving it to humanity, Prometheus was chained to a rock and a vulture was sent by Zeus, who is represented by the eagle, to devour his entrails. Like Prometheus, The Hanged Man may be suffering for some humane, brave or noble act.The Renaissance Tarot is a modern deck, with symbolism drawn from the heroic age and rendered in renaissance style. This deck is an excellent choice for exploring questions of passion, mastery, and the inner workings of human reason. If you would like your own copy of the Renaissance Tarot, you can buy it now! |
