Mi-Shell
From Chesca Potter's notes:
The Blasted Oak
(traditionally The Hanged One, The Tower)
Minor arcana; Fives
Position on wheel: Lammas.
Element: Air/Water
Chakra: solar plexus.
Colour: yellow/green.
Polarity: red
A green figure is liberated from their bonds by the force of the lightening striking the oak tree. You have been out on a limb, clinging on to an untenable situation. The air is charged with emotion. Pent up tears or anger are released. Although these times are often traumatic, this is the first stage of healing; yet there may be a loss of stability as the familiar is replaced by the unknown. Be gentle on yourself and give yourself time to heal. The thunderbolt could also be thrown at you by a figure in authority, using their power over you, as anger, or intimidation, for instance. Use the balance of Strength to stand up to them or seek help.
