On this very
hot first day of July, I will start working with my Wild Unknown
Tarot by Kim Krans. It was gifted to me in May for my
Birthday but besides flipping through the deck and admiring the artwork, I haven’t really worked with it yet.
My card for
today is Justice. We see two cats, one white and one black sitting next to each
other with their backs towards us. Their tails are crossing and they are both looking
straight at us. Everything in this card is expressing the idea of balance. This
version of Justice it like a dismantled Yin -Yang symbol Even the color of their
eyes is opposite to the color of their fur
In this
card there is no other color used but black and white. Justice sees no color, just the bare facts and
no emotions or other distractions. Justice
is all about universal balance between opposites, about truth and fairness and responsibility for your
own actions. The sword represents fair decisions and cutting to the chase.
Decide what is best for yourself and everybody else involved. And after that decision, it is up to you to take responsibility for the consequences of your choices.
For me, being often insecure about my own decisions, this is a difficult
card to start out with but I think a very representative one for the energy of
the deck. Not only because the cards are
mainly drawn in black and white, with here and there a meaningful splash of color but
also because of the straightforwardness of the images. They convey their
message without a multitude of symbols. Of course the images are layered but
they speak truthfully and clearly and they are teaching us to trust our intuition as
a part of sincere decision making.
And remember not making a choice is a choice too
