The Hanged Man, Card XII of the Tarot. Niki placed the Hanged Man inside of her Tree of Life. Per Niki: “The Hanged Man has fascinated poets and artists throughout the ages. The Hanged Man is suspended by his foot. He is in the position to view the world upside down, thus in a new way. The card also
represents Compassion.”
