For the past four years I've been doing the majority of my readings on line. The way I read, you have to shuffle the cards, so people use their own decks. In my recent readings, with everyone using a separate deck, so it's not a issue of shuffling, the Justice card (or Justice Reversed, even more pertinent) has show up disproportionately.
The Justice card is often about a sense of fairness. of things working out justly. Pulling Justice into today's world I interpreted as a sense of desiring fairness or justice, or of things being not fair. Which is completely accurate. Things are not fair. Good work is not necessarily being rewarded, chance encounters can lead to contagion, life is strange.
In ordinary days when people are searching for fairness, I warn them that life is not fair. In fact, living in the first world, with running water and electricity, we are so far ahead in the fairness stakes we are already on the wrong side of that ledger. So instead of wanting fairness, I tell people to seek balance. If life isn't fair, and you feel powerless, then the next day you wake up and life is still unfair and what can you do? But if your life is not balanced - then there you have some power. You can redress the balances, give more energy to one section, take it away from another, You have the power to allocate how to balance your time and energy and then the burning sense of requiring Justice can ease a little.
One client had three separate readings using three different decks over a three year period. . As I was looking over his notes, I realized that in each reading, he had pulled the Justice card. So then we had another conversation about what that card means to him personally, as well as being part of the ether now. Tarot is both general and deeply personal. And if you do readings over time, you can get to deeper insights too.
