August is here. Planner is barebones completed. I feel like quitting, but I simplified my journal, lowered the expectations and chose to try and make something pretty that I may or may not use. The most important thing is my theme for the month: Justice ⚖️🗡
Does anyone else feels like they've been battling day and night? I'm absolutely exhausted. I feel like I'm down, one knee on the ground. My enemies see that I'm seconds from falling but in reality I'm seconds from getting back up to continue the battle.
I've always struggled with the Justice card in tarot. I think I finally, truly understand it. It's standing up and doing the right thing, even when it's tough. It's fighting for not only yourself, but for the person next to you. It's being fair and logical but not emotional over the decisions you make.
The card that stands out to me is the Justice card in The Tarot of Dreams by Ciro Marchetti. A blind figure, wearing heavy armor. Weighing the facts and making a decision. Once ready, the scales will fall and the figure will be ready for battle. But maybe it's not about fighting. Maybe, you can be softer and drop the armor. Maybe Justice doesn't fight physically, maybe it's a logical game, like chess.
These archetypes are so much deeper than any definition you can find in a book. It's not until you approach the lesson in life can you truly understand it's meaning.
