The Major Arcana Tarot card associated with Libra is  XI Justice/Adjustment.

By Michelle Crandell
Justice/Adjustment is the Major Arcana card corresponding to the sign of Libra. Personal interests of the Justice born: seeking balanced, harmonious environments and developing open-mindedness. Libras use these guides to find meaning and purpose in their lives. 

JUSTICE: What creates fairness? Libras believe all humans are created equal. They sympathize with anyone they believe is being treated unfairly. They are drawn to the beauty, balance, and harmony found in nature. They value rational thinking, science…even a “good argument.” Though Libras can overanalyze, their efforts to stay open-minded are admirable.

ADJUSTMENT: How does one develop a moral compass and act in accordance with it? Diplomatic, even-tempered, and cooperative, Libras are good at adjusting to others who have more forceful, confident personalities. Pursuing relationships with people who are good to them and good for them is a must, as is avoiding the tendency to seek in others what they lack in themselves. Their adjustment: recognizing both self-indulgence and overextention as self-neglect. Practice self-care. 

Challenges: How does one see both sides and yet live in the middle? Libras struggle with judgmentalness and indecision, self-doubt, and inertia. They often have creative ideas without actualizing them in tangible, useful ways. These challenges can lead to chronic discontent, vagueness, and dependency. Self-discipline and practicing being truthful in difficult situations are two solutions to these challenges.

ARCHETYPES: Solomon, Judges, the Scales.

SHADOW ARCHETYPES: Cult followers, enablers. Michelle Crandell provides individual Tarot readings for a fee. Once a year, she teaches LEARN TO READ TAROT. Call if interested in her next class. To learn more, email michelle.crandell@gmail.com or call 501-655-6242.
