Justice

Justice represents fairness, balance, and moral rightness—the principle that ensures truth, equity, and integrity guide both personal actions and social systems. Spiritually, justice is not limited to law or authority; it is about aligning with the greater good, correcting imbalances, and honoring the truth.

When working with justice in magical or ritual practices, the goal is to:

• Seek fairness in personal and collective matters
• Uphold integrity and moral clarity
• Correct injustice and restore balance
• Act with courage, wisdom, and accountability
