Justice -- Major Arcana


Card I will discuss now is called 'Justice'. It bears the number 11 in Major arcana. Picture I have used for reference is from the rider Waite Tarot Deck.

Fool comes at a croosroads and unable to decide which path to choose he looks around him. At some distance he find a blindfolded lady listening to two brothers quarrel. They have to this lady for justice. One of the brother has all the wealth while the other is extremely poor. Lady listens to both sides of arguments and pleas and gives her verdict that half of the rich brother's wealth be given to the poor brother. Although the matter solved in a justful way, none of the brother is happy.

Soon after Fool witnesses this, he realizes what was trouble him. In his quest for material comforts he had led hsi spiritual self to starve while his material self was enjoying to the full. Now, he knows which path to take so that half of his time and energy is devoted to his spiritual self.

Here he learns the lesson of maintaining the balance between his material and spiritual selves, just like the equilibrium between the justice's scales.

When this card comes up in a reading, it indicates a need for balance.
This card also signal legal matters related to court. Whatever the decision taken in court cases will be fair.
