Clarity comes through fairness, honesty, and cause and effect.
Justice represents truth, fairness, accountability, balance, and clear judgment. It suggests that honest choices, responsibility, and cause-and-effect are central to the situation.
Reversed, Justice points to bias, unfairness, harsh judgment, legal or moral complications, or avoiding responsibility. It asks you to look honestly at what is balanced and what is not.
