Justice
Major Arcana
A robed figure sits upon a throne between two pillars, holding an upraised sword in the right hand and balanced scales in the left. A purple veil hangs behind the throne, and a small square clasp holds the figure's red cloak together.
▲ Upright Meaning
Justice demands truth, fairness, and accountability in all dealings. The consequences of past actions arrive now — accept responsibility and trust that the scales will balance as they should.
▼ Reversed Meaning
