How to Use Tarot Cards
Justice is something that our world can use a lot more of. Seems to me that the lack of it is causing more problems than I care to discuss here. But that isn't the topic of this article. This article is about Justice and how it applies to the Tarot. As the twelfth card of the Major Arcana (card number 11) Justice is one of those misunderstood cards when new readers are performing a reading. This article will explain to you the meanings of the card and how to interpret it when it comes up in a spread. After reading this, you should have a very good idea of what this card is all about.
In its normal key, Justice stands for a decision that the subject has made that he feels in his heart is fair and honest. Now, naturally everybody's idea of what's fair and honest is going to be different. But for the most part, this card is pretty accurate when it comes up in its normal, or non reversed orientation.
Justice does have other meanings though. In certain places in a spread, the card indicates that the subject should stick to his guns and not be persuaded by others. If he firmly believes that he is taking the right course of action or choosing the right path, he should continue on that path. This doesn't necessarily mean that the results will be good, but it does mean that he is doing the right thing. Sometimes the right thing means bad things happen as a result. So while the card may be positive, the results don't have to be.
In reverse, Justice means that injustice has been done and there is a possibility of loss as a result. This card can also mean that somebody has taken advantage of you. Sometimes, however, this is a matter of perception, especially when the card comes up in the eighth position in a Celtic Cross spread. This card also can mean that the subject has done everything possible and there is no sense worrying about the situation any longer.
In most cases, this card indicates a karmic lesson that the subject needed to learn. Hopefully, he will have learned from it so that it won't happen again.
Justice is one of the few cards in the Major Arcana that is truly either good or bad depending on whether it falls in its normal or reverse key.
