Ethan pulled out his tarot cards, separating the Major Arcana from the rest. Then he cut the deck, drawing the top card. A funny little guy hanging upside down from a tree - The Hanged Man. The 17 year old flipped to the chapter on Tarot Cards to see what that one meant.

This was an interesting story that went with it and Ethan skimmed over it. Apparently it was about a guy who was in search of spiritual enlightenment and, after sitting around for days finding none, he decided to hang upside down from a tree for no reason. This changes his perspective on the world, allowing him to see with clarity. Then once he rights himself, he can act on what he's learned. Well, that was much better than what the name implied. Then he read over the meaning before giving his answer.

Ethan raised his hand and offered, "Professor, I chose the Hanged Man. The book says that this card provides clarity and a different perspective... a time of trial or meditation that leads to insight and enlightenment." Certainly not a bad card.. was that supposed to mean something for him?
