JusticeEvery Tarot deck has its own images and symbolism which must then be filtered through the psyche of the reader and the context of the question. However for the benefit of beginners, below are some possible interpretations and meanings of Justice as a starting point for your own personal exploration of the Tarot.
Reading The CardJustice represents settlement of dispute by impartial authority.The blindfold arbiter weighs the evidence and passes judgement without fear or favour. There can be no appeal. Whilst the arbiter is blindfolded, the courtroom is open to all. It is not enough for justice to be done, justice must be seen to be done. A secret trial cannot be a fair trial. The accused must be told the charges and the evidence must be assessed by a jury. Justice is not necessarily the same as Law. True justice seeks out the spirit of the law, not just its letter. If a law is bad then true Justice will set that law aside. This is the sacred responsibility of those given the power to judge. If well aspected in a Tarot reading, this card can indicate settlement of disputes, the achievement of a just outcome. If badly aspected this card can indicate corruption and failure of justice. Judge each case on its merits.
