What you can see

A crowned figure sits between pillars with an upright sword and a pair of scales. A curtain closes the space behind the throne.

What Waite says

Waite distinguishes moral justice, concerned with a person’s works, from his theological account of spiritual election. Similar pillars do not make this the same threshold as the High Priestess’s.
