Thread: Juugo no Tenbin....

Okay i was wondering if anybody could tell me what "tenbin" actually translates to? I was reading some scanlate databook stuff and it called him scales in quotes, so im wondering if this is an allusion to heavenly scales in a snake sense (as per the scaly like nature of his curse seal, the whole hebi thing, or maybe an allusion to how the snake crawls in the dark envenomating whatever comes to close) or if its an allusion to heavenly scales in a balance sense(as in him having a psycopathic personality and a calm one, and how he can switch between them both with the slightest provocation almost like throwing a weight on a scale ) Im not sure which ones of these it is but im sure its one of them so if anybody could help me clarify it would be appreciated.

天びん or 天秤 (read "tenbin") - pair of scales... Im not sure if thats correct, though
