Judgement
A Decision That Has A Lasting Effect, Caution Before The Next Step, Considering Consequences
Upright: Making a judgment (decision) that will have a lasting impact, a choice made that will affect the rest of your life, considering the lasting impact and effects of a decision, obstructions that cause you to stop and consider the gravity of a decision, ready to take a final step but an obstacle holds you back, being cautious before the next step, one final step to completion requiring a crucial decision, making a decision that is wise or foolish, becoming aware of what’s wise or foolish, becoming aware that what you’re aiming for will end in suffering, allowing yourself to let go of the past so you can grow and change, coming to terms with the past in order to leave it behind for something new, becoming aware of new possibilities after making a decision, transformation as a result of a decision, ready to make a very hard decision, ready to stop doing something that isn’t working, feeling a sense of freedom or relief from a wise decision, feeling more natural or authentic due to a wise decision, investing energies in new growth or social ideals
illumination, awakening, awareness? all that is honourable on one hand but also for illusions or vain aspirations on the other hand, deliverance from obstructions, delayed by obstructions? renewed by the innate power of motion (energy in motion), get your energy moving, fatigue due to obstructions, a reason to keep living, looking forward to moving on, ambiguities and obfuscations of the past, absolutes are taking place, a particular path, where you are and where you want to be, opening yourself up and high quality will emerge, life changing events, a life-changing opportunity, decisions need to be made quickly, too much waiting around can result in loss, a soulmate relationship or learn lessons from relationship, There are certain memories he has a hard time looking back on as they make him feel guilty, ashamed, angry. He knows that he’s never come to terms with what happened and he must if he wants to make that final transition, forgiving past for wrongs done by others, a time of significant change, become aware of what is and isn’t working, face what’s buried from the past, make the decision and change, a crossroads, have a feeling you’re making a wise or foolish decision, foolish makes you stop, being cautious because you feel it’s a critical decision which it may or may not be, stop due to obstructions, obstacles come because we’re hesitant or come from confusion but they are a blessing in disguise, obstacles allow us to stop and get in touch with the most wise decisions, impulse decisions can lead to a wrong decision, deep down we know what is the wise decision, facing what you thought was buried from the past can bring clarity or confusion
motion is the transformation that takes place, it takes place by getting moving.
Judgment is
Why is the card titled ‘Judgment,’ you might ask? This was likely the original intention or mystical meaning of Judgment Day: It’s the day we awaken to the True Self. We become aware of false identities and are able to discern or judge what is the true self or false self. As illumination appears, our masks and false personas or roles are no longer needed and therefore they dissolve and disappear. Real terms were esoterically hidden behind false terms so that their meaning was only revealed to those undergoing the difficulty of transformation rather than to those taking intellectual shortcuts. This is the “judgment” or decision to allow the transformation of the false self to resurrect into the Real Self.
