A period under Justice invites rebalancing: putting things in order, settling what lingers, and making choices you can stand behind.
These years can offer precious clarity. Blurry situations ask to be settled, and the distance needed to do so without haste is often there. It is a good time to make official what was not, review a contract, clarify a role, and lay sound foundations for what follows.
A Justice period can make you more sensitive to injustice, real or supposed. The risk would be turning every disagreement into a matter of principle and wearing yourself out in quarrels. Keeping a sense of proportion, and saving your energy for the imbalances that really matter, makes these years lighter.

A period marked by the 8 often resembles a plateau.
Things seem to move slowly, and you may feel you are marking time. For the method, however, it is a time when the results of the following years are prepared, in love as at work: what is put in order now can bear fruit later. It is also a period of review and regularization. Pending files may come back to the table: administrative papers, tax returns, an employment contract, an inheritance, the division of a property. The consequences of past choices may be felt, whether happy or painful, and the period invites you to take stock of what has been accomplished and what remains to be built. Some people use it to go back to school, take a competitive exam, change professional status, or clarify a division left vague within the family. People who have acted honestly may see their efforts recognized; those who took shortcuts may have to answer for them. Your role during these years: to act with uprightness and restore balance where the scales tip. You may be asked to referee a family disagreement, represent a group, or take on an official responsibility. Areas that may be concerned: legal and administrative procedures, contracts, household money, work, organizing daily life, relationships where an imbalance has set in. Practical tips: tidy your papers and settle what is dragging; keep each commitment on the promised date; avoid lending or borrowing; before contesting a decision, ask yourself what you could have done differently.
During a Justice period, an ordinary scene can take on relief: a dinner where, once again, the same person clears the table while the others talk.
What went unnoticed becomes visible. Rather than exploding, you might suggest a new division of labor, at home as at the office: a chore chart, a meeting to redistribute files, a calm conversation with a partner. These modest readjustments can change the mood of a whole year, and leave a fairer organization for the years after.

Possibilities, not a prediction: no period announces a certain event.
The peaks of the ring reuse points you already know: age 0 the portrait, age 10 the paternal corner, age 20 the talent, age 30 the maternal corner, and so on up to age 70.
Between two peaks, you add to find the midpoint, then repeat for the quarters. On the fictional example of March 14, 1987, you find 14 at birth and 17 at ten. The midpoint, around age 5, is 14 and 17, making 31, reduced to 4. Around age two and a half, 14 and 4 give 18; around age seven and a half, 4 and 17 give 21.
No. The energy can highlight rules, contracts, and procedures, but it designates no specific event. For many people, it simply translates into a need to put things in order and clarify what was left blurry. Acting transparently during these years remains the best way to live them serenely.
The ring of ages starts at birth, and a Justice period can fall in the early years. It then colors the learning of rules: at school, between siblings, in games. A child going through this period may be very attentive to fairness. Rules that are explained and applied to everyone help them draw a solid sense of justice from it.
First look at what depends on you. A contested decision, an unbalanced split, or a conflict that drags on can be a test during these years. Rather than ruminating, you can assert your rights calmly, in writing, or ask for mediation. What is settled with measure often leaves fewer traces than what is fought with anger.
