I’m studying the three Significators right now, specifically the Hanged Man (Significator of Body). I noticed something very interesting with the Egyptian Church of Light version: his body forms an upside down Crux Ansata. What’s significant is that his legs are crossed in a 90 degree angle which denotes transformation. Remember that the Significator is both actor and acted upon. He consciously chooses the sacrifice (of what? I’m trying to figure out.) which is to affect transformation of body, denoted by the cross of his legs surmounting the circle shape of his upper body and arms.
This takes place within the material illusion represented by the rectangular Tau structure which the Hanged Man hangs. It is entwined with grapes. I have some theories: the grapes represent that the material illusion is fertile ground for the Significator of Body. It’s what allows the Signifcator to exercise his will and to transform thereby.
Or,
It may represent that the sacrifice is a fruitful endeavor. He sacrifices materiality (his dropping of the coins) for the fruitful concious Transformation of Body affected only by being within the material illusion.

Keyword: self-sacrifice, this stands out in my mind.
