Justice Card Meaning

The Justice card depicts an impartial figure holding her scales in balance and her sword raised high. This card points to a time when cause and effect are clearly at work in your life and past actions are now meeting their consequences. Honesty, accountability and a fair perspective are worth more than anything right now.

Justice reversed shows a situation where a wrong hasn't been put right, honesty has been abandoned or someone is avoiding accountability. A decision may have been made in a one-sided, biased or unfair way. Sometimes this card also describes a legal process dragging on or justice being delayed.

Balance is crucial in your relationship. If the give and take has become unequal, it needs to be put on the table now. A conversation built on mutual respect and honesty will set your relationship on much healthier ground. A reckoning over a past mistake is also possible.

The time has come to be rewarded for your efforts and get the recognition you deserve: a promotion, a deal or a fair evaluation is on its way. If you're dealing with contracts, legal documents or formal agreements, go over every detail carefully during this time; justice lies in the details.
