Justice


Justice XI

Divinatory Meanings: Lawsuits. Facing a judge. Legal matters. Suing or being sued. Doing the right thing. Finding a just solution or encountering a lack of justice. Need for Justice means usually a lack thereof.

Yes or No: Yes.

Numerical Value: 11.

I chose the World Court in Brussels because it is my belief that until we have a One World Law, we live in a state of Lawlessness. This idea actually came from a fellow named Gary Davis who renounced his American Citizenship in order to become the first “World Citizen” of the United Nations. His quest, more than any other, opened the door for me to really begin to understand “Justice”. Usually, what passes for Law and Justice in our world is the abuse of weak by the strong. The defining element in so called “Justice” is money, and as we all know, money usually goes to the most ruthless. Hence, the state of “world law” is one of lawlessness and a kind of Social Darwinism. In short, a hellish situation.

In fact, Justice is divine. Only a supreme being could untangle the web of human injustices. Human efforts to bring “Justice” to disputes is imperfect at best. The clear indication of this imperfection in human “Justice” is war. Divine Justice means death for all. And death equalizes all debts. More on this later.

It is commonly said that Justice is blind. I disagree. I think Justice must be transparent, but it must also be all-seeing.

I feel sorry for those who are called upon to Judge. How dare they Judge anybody? How dare they put themselves above each individual with some archaic books that give them a so-called Law to Judge with? In a perfect world, each case would be individually Judged – Judged on the entire merits of the plaintiff and the defendant and not only on some obscure writing in some book. Even the Bible tells us: Judge not least you also be Judged. But we never learn, do we? Always we want to feel morally superior to those decadent, evil, wrongdoers and sinners. Only thus can our own actions be vindicated in the court of public opinion.

A mob gets together and writes a few clever things on some “sacred” papers, be it a constitution or a Holy Book… Then the mob calls this “The Law” and then the terror begins. Woe to those who break the taboo of the land. Of course, taboos change from country to country and Nation to Nation. But behind every Nation there is always a group of men who consider themselves above the Law of another Nation. Thus we have a worldwide state of chaos which lends itself to devils’ play in the guise of Law.

Perhaps one day we will all be protected from each other by a true form of Justice. Perhaps? Is that not the promice of the Bible, the Koran and the Vedas?
