XI - Justice...Description of the Illustration:The head of the Egyptian Goddess of balance, Ma'at, rises from the planet Venus, resting at the apex of huge ornate scales that are balanced against the backdrop of a vibrant autumn sunset over the beach at high tide. The scales are not static, but instead are constantly moving to remain in perfect balance. On the left scale is the Sun, superimposed with the image of the lighter (male) twin from The Lovers card, while the Moon is on the right scale, superimposed with the image of the darker (female) twin; the Sun and Moon (the two twins) reach for each other. Below them is an ancient piece of parchment which reads "I, Light, and I, Darkness, do promise to... ." The upper left sphere is blue (Chesed), while the lower right sphere is green (Netzach). Element: Air, Masculine, Transmissive, Cardinal sign
