My prefix's mind is quite fair and precise.

My suffix can flow with a warm sacrifice.

My infix is shown in a shuffle and worn.

My lady, though blind, balances with a thorn.

What am I?

The answer is $7$ letters, and the title is a clue. Oh, and don't fear that knowledge tag; it only exists because of the lady, so perhaps you might have to research, but only after you know the answer.

Fun Fact:

Just noticed that an anagram of loving riddles is riddle solving.

  • $\begingroup$ Oh, damn. But you are so very close. You are $100\%$ on the right track! And it's also been a while since you have last answered one of my riddles. Edit: The prefix is correct; the suffix is correct; the lady is correct; the explanation for the title is correct :D $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I spent my last upvote on @Cubemaster 's most recent riddle only because I think there might be a badge earned when you get $10+$ votes on a question (so hopefully he gets that). That means you won't be getting an upvote (for now....) but you will be getting a $\,\color{green}{\checkmark}$. Congratulations! :D $\endgroup$
