Upright Card Meaning
The call of the trumpets during Judgement Day, represented by this card, is a call for you to awaken. Your long journey is over, now you get to see the outcome of your efforts. However, just because the physical work is done does not mean that your internal work is finished. Now is the time for reflection and self-awareness. What has your journey taught you? How can you internalize these lessons for the future?
Alternatively, the card does not mean that your journey is over but it is simply time to change direction. You are being called to follow a different path. It is time to make some important change, perhaps one that you have been frightened to make. Changing your path so drastically may be frightening, but think, if the world ended today would you be happy with where you are? If not, it is time to make that change you simultaneously crave and dread.

Reversed Card Meaning
Judgement calls for decisive action, something that is absent from the card of Judgement Reversed. Judgement Reversed embodies all the qualities that prevent people from making the changes in their lives that are actually necessary for their happiness. Everybody has a ready excuse to explain why they cannot make a tough sacrifice. Everybody has been guilty of prolonging deliberation on purpose to put off a tough decision, or denying the need for a change that seems too difficult.
However, taking the path that is easier in the moment will not necessarily make you happier. Deep down you know that you are capable of more, so choosing the easy way out will mire you in weakness and self-loathing. Surrounding yourself in excuses will only cloud your self-awareness.
This card is a warning. Continuing down the path of easy excuses and weakness will not bring you the happiness or the results that you seek.
