Drawstring Bag Tarot De Marseille La Justice VIII

Justice is the one who makes sure that each individual has to experience the consequences of their actions, for better or for worse. The balance represents the fact that this consequence must actually be commensurate with the actions taken. The sword symbolizes the severity and rigor with which judgment is passed. This Arcanum reminds us that all the knots come home to roost. The individual at peace with his conscience can find comfort in the balance; the one who has committed evil deeds must fear the blade of the sword instead.
