In her deck, "The Antique Anatomy Tarot," Claire Goodchild shows Justice as a heart and brain joined together in the middle with red and gold flowers growing from the top and bottom with green leaves. "Both your head and heart need to carry equal weight," Goodchild says, which relates to the big decision the Justice tarot card implies you need to make. Both versions of the Justice tarot card — the traditional Rider-Waite and the contemporaries — are reminding you about balance.
Biddy Tarot warns that the Justice card shows up when the decisions you need to make have the "potential for long-term repercussions." The repercussions won't just effect you, either. Whatever decision you need to make will impact your well-being, and the well-being of others. So, you need to be ready to stand by the decision you're making. If you don't think you can, the Justice card is asking you to dig deeper still on whatever issue you're thinking through.
Upside down, the Justice card is calling you out on something you know you've done wrong. You're not ready to own up to it, or you're letting other people to take the blame. Here, the decision you need to make is whether or not you own up to what you've done. "Whichever you choose," Biddy Tarot warns, "you will need to live with the consequences on your conscience."
