An Unenviable Job

This week I'll be using the Neuzeit Tarot created by Walter Wegmuller and published by AG Muller. The "oracle" I'll be using is a combination of two sets of dice: Rory's Story Cubes and Rory's Story Cubes - Voyages.  These dice were created by Rory O'Connor and produced by Gamewright. Today's card and die are Justice and Cactus:

          I've always thought that Justice was a lot like Temperance, as far as keeping things in balance goes. But with Justice, her primary concern is with how someone's personal imbalance negatively affects the world or infringes on the rights of others. Wegmuller's Justice has bare feet, and I attribute that to her being grounded and practical. She's not concerned with silly tit for tat kind of stuff but with actions that can be game-changers. I couldn't help think of a couple of politicians here in the States who have openly declared that the global warming problem to be a hoax. They refuse to believe humans are affecting the climate change. Of course if they did admit it, then they would have to respond with responsible action to fix it. Ms. Justice, please take that big honking sword of yours and bop some sense in them.
          A cactus is a plant that has adapted to an extremely dry environment. Its thick, fleshy stem and modified leaves (spines) are all an attempt to conserve water. Its prickly nature shows what results when people are told to "just get over it" or "learn to deal with it." Entitled behavior means someone gains and someone loses, and that never works out well for anyone. Then it's up to people like civil rights activists and those advocating for gun restrictions to help re-balance the power and privileges. Justice, I don't envy you your job.
