To consider this is not an attack on your character
Judgment is the archetype of complete honesty. This cannot be faked. To even try to fake this would to live in denial, which will always be found out. Judgment is about assessing reality and examining strengths and weaknesses. It is about assessing how your actions have added up to create the life you now live, and what you could have, and perhaps should have done differently to affect a different outcome, perhaps a better and more hospitable outcome based on your life’s mission and the goals for personal Enlightenment that you have set for yourself.
In a perfect sense, the assessment from the Judgment archetype will be accepted as it is given- dispassionately and impersonally. In an imperfect sense, it will be met with resistance by the one receiving it. This person will take it personally, as if it is an attack on their character. Their egos will interfere with the wisdom and the growth opportunities inherent to it. They will push it away because it challenges what they have come to believe about their selves. One must take into consideration as an archetype, Judgment is never presented as a personal attack. It is presented as learning opportunities and chances to better one’s self. To let ego get in the way only diminished its power and intention.
Consider your actions as though you must one day answer for them in a court of a much higher power. Can you justify them? This is one message the Judgment card of tarot has for you. — Jim Larsen
