I don't think my mind works like that. I was a boy when I read those stories so they aren't really fresh. Arachne was a Weaver that pissed off Athena somehow, pride maybe?And was made into a spider. Odin was the god of hanging originally? .....and gave up his eye for either eternal life or omniscience, or omnipotence. Can't remember. I think he is associated with crows because they hung around gibbets knowing they'd get a meal. All this is fuzzy. And something about the phrase "the hanged man" is associated in my mind with black holes. I'm going to look this up. Because I'm just not making a connection to the mythical Phoenix that was reborn from the ashes of its own immolation.
I'm saying Ledger agreed to die so that he could be "reborn".
He is now remembered as being a wonderful actor, playing the character of the ''Joker'' (hint hint). The next person to present the character's last name is literally Pheonix.
Hanged man is a tarot card.
In the movie, Ledger's character was hung as punishment (Arachne), just like he was murdered as a punishment.
Like Odin, he died to attain something more valuable (Odin gave his eye for knowledge), to be reborn under more preferable conditions.
There are only so many stories.
I see thematic similarities, but you seem pretty sure. Either you have more information than the average person or you are making connections that aren't there. Insiders usually don't reveal what they know,
I just know where to look.
We'll put it this way: many more people have been made an example of than just Archane.
There's a reason there's a lot of Owl symbolism at Bohemian Grove.
