"The Hanged Man" is the twelfth card in the major arcana of the tarot pack. It represents a time of withdrawal, waiting and spiritual healing. "THE HANGED MAN" offers a brief, sometimes humorous, glimpse into the life of a young woman named Crystal, and individualist and a loner who believes in the mystical power of the universe. "THE HANGED MAN" follows her faltering transition from helpless pawn to--if not exactly an active participant in the game of life--then at least to becoming a more aware pawn.
