The Philosophy behind Hangings

Toe hanging is derived from the historic penalty applied to witches over 400 years ago for sins of Witchcraft, whilst mixing modern day concepts of spiritual cleansing.

For a background on Witchcraft, from the famous Pendle Hill witches of England, to the Salem witches of America, please look at the links below:

For example in the 17th century, witches were beheaded, hung, drowned or burnt. Whilst it is not safe to drown, burn or behead a person without injuring or killing them, hanging (by way of parody) is the most plausible punishment. But before that, we have Toe Burning & Bludgeoning.

The Toe Burning, which is done before the hanging, is symbolic of the times when witches were burnt at the stake for their sins. The cleansing power of the fire, close to the soul, was meant to 'burn away' the stain of sins, after which the burnt witch, now dead, would be able to enter Heaven having been purified.

The Toe Bludgeoning, also done before the hanging, is symbolic of the times when witches were flogged rather than executed for less serious crimes. the strokes given are not painful at all, but they are meant to cause a delicious sting whilst the mind contemplates the sins committed.

The actual hanging of the toes is tailored to the individual woman. Larger women will have a second support bar under the heels to alleviate the stress on their feet caused by heavier legs. The key concept is contemplation of sins and fun, not pain as such. It symbolises 'death' of the person as they currently are.

After the hanging, a reflexology treatment is given to revive the toes, i.e. create "rebirth".
In Reflexology, there are reflex points in the toes and soles that correspond to all the organs, glands and structures of the body. By pressing on these pressure points with thumbs, which feels like grains of granulated sugar on the thumbs, the Reflexologist can clear up energy blockages and free up energy channels which will benefit the corresponding organs.  The head for example, is connected by meridians or energy channels to the big toes, theine eyes to the second toes, the small intestine, to the soles just below the centre of the foot. There is so much to be learned about how areas of the toes/soles map onto the rest of the body by reading a Reflexology chart.

Thus if the big toes are executed by hanging, it is symbolic of the head being hung or decapitated. As we hang all 10 toes, it is symbolic of hanging the head plus all the organs connected within the head (eyes, nose, ears, throat, sinus, etc). This symbolises the entire loss of conciousness and denial of the senses during the hanging.

After the woman is pronounced 'dead' from the hanging, the reflexology massage is carried out, on the soles but chiefly on the hanged toes, thus freeing up more energy. This is symbolic of 'rebirth' into a new person.

Taking a step back, just before the hanging:
If you look at the art of Toe Reading, which is another holistic service, like Reflexology, the feet tell a lot about someone's historic and current life. By looking at the shape/state of the individual toes, the Reader can tell a lot about your past relationships, behaviours, attitudes etc. Did you know each of the five toes represents a different aspect of your personality:
​
Great Toe -     Ether element or "Destiny" - your life purpose or path.
Second Toe -   Air element or "Communication"
Third Toe -      Fire element or "Action/passion"
Fourth Toe -    Water element or "Relationship"
Fifth Toe -       Earth element or "Prosperity"

The left foot depicts how you relate to yourself, and the right foot indicates how you react to the world.

For example a small 5th toe denotes a childlike nature, or impish sense of fun, i.e. shying away from responsibility. If your big toe is longer than the others, you are a clever, creative thinker, but if it is relatively small, you are a superb multi-tasker. A straight 4th toe means you are a superb listener and nurturer, a curled or short fourth toe means that family/relationships are less important to you. If your five toes graduate neatly in size, it means you are methodical, precise and practical. 

There is so much to be gleaned from a reading, the above is but a TINY fraction of the examples out there.

​
So, if we hang all ten toes, it is symbolic of hanging the entire person's ''old self'', taking everything they have i.e. putting to death all their old aspirations, faulty communication/lies, selfish passions, bad relationships, and child-like impulses.
The reflexology massage will restore new energy channels and and new you, with better goals, passions, relationships and drives.

As for the provision of Scholls exercise sandals after the hanging, this is symbolic of training the person after 'rebirth' created by the reflexology. Walking in Scholls disciplines the toes (you have to grip and ungrip with each step, to keep the Scholls on), i.e. this is symbolic of walking through life in the correct way after rebirth, i.e. in correct posture and gait.
