11-Justice – Upright Mage Deck

Your Chosen Card – Justice Upright Mage Deck

When upright, the Justice card suggests that your current situation hinges on matters of equilibrium, balance, fair treatment, and justice. If you are involved in a legal matter, it will be judged impartially and is likely to be decided in your favor (but only if you are in the right). If you are in the wrong, the same impartiality applies and you will be held accountable. In any decision you take now, it is essential to be honest and judicious in weighing the pros and cons. In the words of the Bible: ‘Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap’ (Galatians 6:7, KJV).

Keywords Upright: Justice, equality, human rights, law and order, fairness, truth, lawfulness, just behavior, balance, impartiality, tolerance, reasonable decisions, courts, legal matters, accepting responsibility, correcting imbalances, respect for the law, morality, ethics, karma, actions and consequences, the right way, just deserts of one’s actions.

Key XI: Justice. This card is numbered VIII in the traditional Marseille deck.
Myths/Archetypes: The Scales of Justice. Karma. The Egyptian goddess Ma’at who weighed souls against a feature to determine if they were worthy of paradise. King Solomon. The Code of Hammurabi. Moses receiving the Ten Commandments.
Dates of Libra: 23 September–22 October (tropical); 17 October–15 November (sidereal)
Astrology: Libra, the Scales (ruled by the planet Venus)
Numerology: 2 (High Priestess) = 1 + 1 (Justice or Strength) = 2 + 0 (Judgment)

Rider Waite: Equity, rightness, probity, executive; triumph of the deserving side in law; (R) law in all its departments, legal complications, bigotry, bias, excessive severity.

When Justice is upright you can pretty much take it that life is going well but that’s when life takes us by surprise.  If Justice is unclear it may help to choose a card from the Major Arcana to provide more insight into what it is Justice is trying to tell you.  If you had a particular issue in  mind, or want to seek clarification on something else, you can also choose again to get more guidance.

Complete Book of Tarot: In the case of Bill Clinton, his birthday August 19, 1946 reduces as follows: 8 + 1 + 9 + 1 + 9 + 4 + 6 = 38, which reduces to 3 + 8 = 11 (Strength or Justice, his personality card). The number 11 then reduces to 1 + 1 = 2, the High Priestess (his soul card). Note that in the traditional tarot of Marseille, card XI was Strength (which Crowley renamed Lust). In the Rider-Waite-Smith deck, card XI became Justice. One could argue that themes of strength, lust, and justice have characterized the life and personality of President Clinton.

Development for Beginners: It is unclear whether or not hypnacogic imagery can actually be classified as psychic, however. That classification is still highly debatable. Although, you may call many different things by many different names, so does it really matter what you call it as long as it gives you the desired results? To paraphrase Shakespeare, a premonitory vision by any other name would still remain as clairvoyant.

Elements of the Psychic World: A practice of divination using bowls of brass – a metal thought to protect against evil spirits – which were filled with water or ink and used as focal points i n scrying or capturing glimpses of the future in scenes and images appearing in the bowl. The diviner would stare at the liquid without blinking until a trancelike state was entered and visions experienced. Said to have been the practice by which Nostradamus came about his knowledge of the future.
