Justice represents law, fairness, cause and effect. Reversed, it represents lack of accountability and injustice. So… this is another one where a certain amount of explanation is needed. Cadance is the Princess of Love. I maintain that it is love and compassion that enables the formation of society. We must care about our fellow humans and support them, or else society will collapse. Therefore, Cadance is the Princess of Culture and Civilization, and has a strong connection to law, justice, and mercy.
 
The symbolism of the scale is… fairly clear. The sword is there as a symbol of the consequences of our actions, as well as a representation of the suit of swords – the suit of the mind. The purple curtain is a symbol of compassion, and the two pillars represent balance and order. The meaning of the red and green robe is not clear, but I thought it looked very nice and formal, so I kept it.
