The Hanged Man: ultimate surrender, sacrifice; new perspectives, letting go
[Image ID: Two images of digital art of Obi-Wan Kenobi as he appears in A New Hope as the Hanged Man tarot. He is hanging upside down from his right leg, suspended from the grey tractor beam control tower by black cables wrapped around his ankle and calf. His other leg is bent loosely behind, and his cloak is draped over it, sweeping towards the right behind him as if caught in wind. He is holding his blue saber ignited vertically in front of his chest and face in salute, and his eyes are closed and expression peaceful.
Obi-Wan’s head is haloed by a light blue glow and a large circular window split into panes by six spokes radiating out from the center. Outer space full of stars can be seen through the window. To its left is a cluster of light blue kyber crystals and a rebel pilot helmet in profile, and to the right is a cluster of red kyber crystals and the Millennium Falcon. In the top left of the image, three stormtroopers stand cradling their guns on a narrow bridge that crosses horizontally behind the control tower. On either side of the image is a grey light panel such as those found on Imperial ships. The backround is dark grey.
The entire image is surrounded by first a white border, then a larger black border. Centered in the black border is the text “XII” at the top and “THE HANGED MAN” at the bottom in bold white letters. There is a large slash cutting horizontally across the image around Obi-Wan’s chest level as if a red saber is being swung in that direction.
The second image is the same as the first, but without the text and the red saber slash.
