Archetype of Law

Justice represents what you do for others, you should also do for yourself. The Twilight Witch, leaving the spinning Wheel of Fortune behind, ventures through the forest with a crystal-clear intention in her heart. She learned from the Hermit that karma is the inner magic of responsibility, crucial for sustaining the universal order. What we contribute to the world ultimately returns to us, defining our fate and destiny. The Twilight Witch is instructed to seek Justice, finding the scales of balance. In the Dark Forest tarot deck, Justice takes on a deeper meaning, symbolizing a personal moment of truth and the fruits of one's labor and efforts returning to oneself.

Interpretation

Justice demands honesty, forbidding deceit, pretense, and holding the sword of truth. It sees the depth of every soul. Two blindfolded girls kneeling can remove their blindfolds as soon they take responsibility for their actions, thoughts, and decisions that led them to the feet of Justice. Those who absorb the lessons of Justice gain freedom and the ability to act uprightly and conscientiously, becoming aware of themselves and their desires while showing this openly to others. The universe responds by gifting new opportunities and hidden joys.

Meaning

Justice emphasizes work, effort, and the rule of three in witchcraft—what energy you put forth comes back to you threefold. It signifies taking responsibility, right actions, even if they are daunting, and the ability to be where you are needed rather than avoiding difficult situations. Accepting truth and acknowledging mistakes are also key aspects.

Shadow

The shadow aspect involves perceiving oneself as above others, attempting to appear as a martyr, harsh self-judgment, shaming others to feel superior, spreading rumors, and taking pleasure in humiliation.
