The Hanged Man and Temperance

Two cards that ask for time, and the tradition separates them by what you do with it. The Hanged Man does nothing at all and lets the view change; Temperance keeps making small adjustments. The pair is about which kind of waiting this is.

Associated with a period where the choice is between working at something and leaving it alone. The pair does not decide it.

Read for a situation that will resolve either by intervention or by being left. The pair says those need different commitments.

Pick one properly. Half-adjusting while half-waiting is the way to get neither, and it is the most natural thing to do.
