Collective Reading: Surrender & Trust with The Hanged Man & Uranus in Taurus

Hanged Man, Mystical Tarot by Giuliano Costa

Things have been intense in the world and astrology seems to reflect this intensity. Uranus entering Taurus in Mid-May didn't make things easier. Uranus wants freedom, evolution and progress, but Taurus is nostalgic and resists change. Uranus' heart is on the future, Taurus holds to the past. Sound familiar? Can you feel the progress that wants to be made, however things keep holding us back? Oh, the growing pains of revolution and evolution.

Hang tight! It's not easy and no amount of fairy dust is going to help. It'll just get in our eyes and irritate more than help right now. So don't sugar coat, be real with how you feel!

All we can really do right now is surrender and trust that we will get through this time. I have pulled the Hanged Man from the Mystical Tarot, by Giuliano Costa, several times in the past few days, so this message has been especially clear.

Look at that volcano in the background! It's reflecting Hawaii's Mt. Kilauea and Guatemala's Volcan del Fuego's eruptions. And it's the Hanged Man card! Sigh. The message is strong and reflects much of what's happening in the world. It's been difficult and painful for many of us to witness or even bear.

However, we may find the answer lies in this Hanged Man card. The card of reversal. (Can we see the situation from a different perspective?) The surrender, trust and sacrifice card. But, also the card of detox (not just food and drink, but toxic people and situations), self-reflection, patience, pause, faith and acceptance. 

​Neptune rules the Hanged Man and is nebulous, sensitive and idealistic. Neptune's energy is creative and intuitive, but also hopeful. How can we be as calm as the Hanged Man with all that chaos going on around him?

I suppose we can be more compassionate with ourselves and have faith—so Neptunian! Remember to check out of the chaos sometimes and check into meditation or contemplation. Tap into your artist/healer self and stay devoted to your dreams. 


Onward and upward!
