Meaning
The card of the Tribunal represents official judgment and justice rendered. It evokes instances where disputes are settled, decisions that oversee our choices and responsibilities. In the Belline Oracle, it symbolizes our relationship to legality and what is just according to earthly laws.
Historically, the Tribunal originates from the early divinatory cards of Mage Edmond at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Once again, it symbolized moral authority, divine retribution for our wanderings. Against this absolute order stood the card of the Enigma.
In our secular modernity, the Tribunal retains a strong moral and philosophical weight. It reminds us that our actions have consequences, that we are judges and judged by turns by laws we give and receive. Facing the Tribunal is an invitation to introspection, reflection on our ethical choices.
