Justice
Upright
Justice, fairness, truth, cause and effect, law
The Justice card symbolizes justice, fairness and the law. You are being called to value your actions or will be judged accordingly. Take responsibility for your activities and stay ready for the consequences.
If you ask justice, then the Justice card is a positive sign that it will be served. You may be awaiting final judgment from the courts or a governing body. A decision will be declared shortly and you must accept it and move on.
The Justice card often appears when an important decision with the potential for long-term consequences should be made. Be aware of the impression your decisions will have on you and other people. Choose consciously by connecting with your intuition and seek for the solution that is most in adjustment with the highest good of all.
Finally, the Justice card is about the exploration of truth. Be prepared to dip into the dark waters and search what truth means to you. Be consciously aware of your truth and your belief about fairness. Get ready to challenge yourself and to discover new areas of your belief system.
Reversed
Unfairness, lack of accountability, dishonesty
The reversed Justice card can hint that inside, you know you’ve done something that isn’t morally right. You have a choice: you can cover it and hope nobody finds out, or you can take focused action to solve the situation by owning up to your mistakes.
Similarly, Justice reversed shows that you are not willing to take full responsibility for your actions and blame others for your mistakes. Assess your situation once more, trying to determine where you can take responsibility. Once you notice where you made a mistake, do whatever you can to make it right again. And you will free yourself from any guilt and empower yourself to make better decisions in the future.
The reversed Justice card can mean that your inner critic is in full impact. You may be evaluating your every single move and coming down hard on yourself. Show yourself a bit of kindness and compassion. We all make mistakes. Thank your inner judgment for trying to do best for everyone, but let yourself relax a bit and go with the flow.
If you are making a critical choice that will influence others, be aware if you are holding on to any discrimination or prejudice that could sway your decision unfairly. You may need to get more knowledge to make a balanced decision.
If you are engaged in a lawful circumstance, you may fear an unfair result. There may be legal difficulties or something that prevents justice from being served.
