Justice
Justice sits with a sword in one hand and scales in the other. She is cold, impartial, and undeniably fair. This isn't about what you *want* to happen; it's about what is *right*. Cause and effect. Action and reaction. The law of karma. If you have acted with integrity, you have nothing to fear. If you have cut corners, the bill is coming due.
This card cuts through the fog of emotion. It asks you to look at the facts. Are you being honest with yourself? Are you being fair to others? Justice demands accountability. It's time to settle debts—financial, emotional, or spiritual.
Often, it appears during legal disputes or negotiations. But more broadly, it's a call for balance. If your life is out of whack, Justice arrives to correct the scales. It might feel harsh, but clarity always does at first.
I. Temporal Meanings
Past Position
You made a significant decision based on logic or faced a consequence of your actions. A legal or ethical matter was resolved.
Present Position
You are being called to account. Be honest and fair in all your dealings. A decision will be made soon that is just, even if it's not what you hoped for.
Future Position
Truth will prevail. If you are involved in a dispute, the outcome will be fair. Karma will balance the scales in the long run.
II. Life Contexts
Contracts and negotiations are favored. Ensure everything is in writing. Treat colleagues fairly, and you will be rewarded. Unethical behavior will be exposed.
Relationships require balance. Are you giving as much as you take? Be honest about your needs and boundaries. Fairness is the foundation of love.
Balance is key. Addressing imbalances in your lifestyle (diet, sleep) is necessary. Seek a second opinion if facing a diagnosis.
