Justice is the 11th Major Arcana card among all the other 22 Major Arcana cards. On this card, a justice figure sits on a cemented seat. In her right hand, she holds a sword, which is pointing upwards that signifies taking a firm, correct, and fair decision with a logical mind. The double edge blade of the sword shows that there is an equal and opposite reaction to every action. In her left hand, she holds a balancing scale, which is considered as the symbol of fair, just, and impartiality. She wears a gold crown with a small blue-coloured square on it which symbolizes the ability to take the unbiased decision to provide justice. She wears a red-coloured robe (symbol of strength, power, and authority) and green-coloured mantle (symbol of growth, rebirth, new beginnings). Behind her back, there is a loosely hung purple veil (symbol of empathy, understanding, dignity, peace, and independence) between the two cemented pillars, signifying balance, law, and fair decisions. A white-coloured shoe pops out from the bottom of her red robe, which signifies that she delivers the decisions as per the results of your actions.
