TAROVERIE / COLORS
Tarot colors
Color is one part of a card’s visual language. Find the color first, then read the object, gesture and surrounding scene.
These nine entries compare colors in the Rider–Waite–Smith deck. Associations vary by deck, tradition and printing; a color alone is not a prediction.

Standards · Comparison
Justice holds scales in one hand and a sword in the other. Pans and beam depict comparison without showing particular goods being weighed.
Scales invite scrutiny of criteria; symmetry does not automatically equal fairness. What is compared, how it is measured, and who is absent need explanation.
