XI - Justice



Justice

At the base of stone stairs, between two pillars, Justice stands, holding a gleaming sword, it’s point resting on the ground. In her other hand, she holds a set of scales before her. The sword with its point on the ground indicates that justice grounds her decisions with proper discrimination and consciousness. The pillars represent the conscious and subconscious, meaning that our actions and our intentions are considered as Justice makes her decisions. The scales weigh our decisions and the outcome used to determine our future. This is the role of Justice, also known as Karma, for she is universal justice. Her judgement and her application of justice maintain the fairness and justness of the universe. Our choices and our actions have consequences, and Justice determines exactly what those will be.

This card represents the importance of your choices. Whatever decision you make now will have significant consequences in your future, so choose carefully. Rely on logic and reason to make the decision, rather than emotion. If you are experiencing good fortune, this card can be letting you know that your past actions made the good fortune possible. It could represent a legal situation that will be resolved in your favour. This card can also be a reminder to balance yo0ur physical concerns with spiritual growth.

If reversed, this card suggests that you are experiencing less that good fortune because of your decisions in the past or that you are in the process of making an unjust decision or one based on emotion rather than logic. It can also point to a legal situation not in your favour.

Use your intuition:

What does the swirling pool of water at Justice’ feet symbolize?

Where do the stairs behind her head lead?

If our actions, decisions, and choices go in one side of the scale, what goes in the other?
