Major Arcana · No. 11
Justice
Fairness · truth · cause and effect
↑Upright Meaning
Justice holds the scales and sword, representing fairness and truth. Every choice echoes back — you reap what you sow. Face the facts honestly, and your decisions will rest on solid ground.
Reversed Meaning
Reversed Justice warns of unfairness or evading responsibility. Are you deceiving yourself? The truth will surface — better to face it and own your part.
Card Overview
Love Meaning
Fair, honest choices in love. Truth-telling, equal give-and-take, and clear agreements are favored; decisions based on facts — not passion alone — lead to lasting outcomes. Contracts, commitments, or closure find their rightful place now.
Career Meaning
Cause and effect is in play — what you have earned shows up. Legal, contract, or decision-heavy work is favored. Be precise; thoroughness and documentation win. Negotiate from clarity, not emotion, and the deal will reflect your worth.
Yes or No
Yes — if your cause is fair and your facts are clear. Justice rewards the prepared and the honest.
Action Advice
Weigh carefully. Then decide without hesitation once you have weighed. Indecision is your only enemy.
