Per Hesiod's Theogony, Themis is the daughter of Uranus and Gaea. Themis is often referred to as Zeus's second wife who helped him to stabilize the power he had over all the gods and humans. She is often depicted carrying a scale and a sword. For her scale, on one side she would place the crime that was committed and on the other she would place the punishment that would be dealt. While with her sword she would divide good from evil. IN MY OPINION Themis in your chart can represent a) where you are stabilizing, b) where you are unbiased, c) the punishments you deal out, and/or d) your morality.
i encourage you to look into the aspects of themis along with the sign, degree, and house placement. for the more advanced astrologers, take a look at the persona chart of themis AND/OR add the other characters involved to see how they support or impede themis!
