Justice
Upright: Justice, fairness, truth, cause and effect, law
Reversed: Unfairness, lack of accountability, dishonesty
The Justice card represents justice, fairness, truth, and the law. You are being called to account for your actions and will be judged accordingly. If you have acted in alignment with your Higher Self and for the greater good of others, you have nothing to worry about. However if you haven't, you will be called out and made to own up to your actions. Be ready to take responsibility for your actions and stand accountable for the ensuing consequences. If you seek justice, then the Justice card is a positive sign that it will indeed be served. The Justice card often appears when you need to make an important choice with the potential for long-term repercussions. Be aware of the impact your decisions will have on your well-being and the well-being of others. Choose consciously by connecting with your inner guidance system (your intuition) and asking for the answer that is most in alignment with the highest good of all. At its core, Justice is about the search for truth. As you explore your truth, you will discover that things are not as clear-cut as you had thought. Be prepared to dip into the murky waters and explore what truth means to you. Be consciously aware of what you believe to be true and what you believe to be fair and ethical.
In this image, she is looking inward, thoughtfully weighing out her actions before proceeding. The scales are the universal sign of justice prevailing. "There is a higher court than courts of Justice and that is the court of Conscience." Justice weighs out or calculates the possible results of her actions before taking them. After deciding that she's willing to take responsibility for what might ensue, she acts with the faith that her chosen course of action will balance out in time.
