Today I pulled for the collective Sagittarius sign to ask about the shadow work they are meant to help with and learn from regarding the person on their mind in a romantic connection.
The question asked of the Universe and Guides was: With respect to the person on the mind of the Sagittarius in a romantic connection, together or separate, what shadow work was the Scorpio there to help this person with – and what shadow work was this person there to help the Sagittarius with? Clarify with tarot and also provide a general message with the Shadows & Light Oracle.
Cards pulled:
The Person on Your Mind
Shadow Work Oracle Card: Apathy
Tarot: Ten of Pentacles, Two of Swords, Three of Cups.
You
Shadow Work Oracle Card: Grief
Tarot: Nine of Swords (reversed), Knight of Wands, King of Pentacles.
General Message
Shadows & Light Oracle Card: Candy Cane Angel: It’s time for a treat!
My interpretation:
Your Person
The Shadow Work Oracle card drawn for this individual is “Apathy,” which urges, “Ignite your passion, for it is the antidote to indifference.” When you encountered this person, or perhaps some time after, they were engulfed in a deep sense of apathy, possibly even overwhelmed by a general boredom with life. There was no spark, no thrill to their existence. But then, dear Sagittarius, you awakened something within them.
The tarot cards that clarify how you’ve guided them out of their apathy are the Ten of Pentacles, the Two of Swords, and the Three of Cups. The Ten of Pentacles is a card of immense happiness and fulfillment. It represents a life brimming with contentment, a happy home, and a sense of complete satisfaction. You brought this sense of joy and completion into their life, transforming their indifference into a feeling of wholeness. The Two of Swords, on the other hand, reflects a state of indecision or emotional detachment, often stemming from apathy. You helped them break free from this stagnation, empowering them to make decisions that would benefit their future. Finally, the Three of Cups is a card of celebration and joyous connections. You likely involved this person in social activities that lifted them out of their mental prison, infusing their life with the joy of camaraderie.
You
The Shadow Work Oracle card drawn for you is “Grief,” which advises, “In pain, find healing and a deeper connection to the self.” At some point in your relationship with this person, you were weighed down by a profound sense of grief. The source of this grief is something only you can fully understand—it could have been the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or perhaps even heartbreak caused by this person through a separation. However, it seems that this person played a significant role in helping you navigate through this sorrow.
The tarot cards clarifying how they assisted you include the Nine of Swords in reverse, the Knight of Wands, and the King of Pentacles. The Nine of Swords typically represents deep emotional and mental anguish, but in its reversed position, it signifies release and relief. This person helped you shed the heavy burdens you carried, alleviating your anxiety and bringing you peace. The Knight of Wands symbolizes courage, ambition, and a renewed sense of purpose. This person took active steps to support you in conquering your grief. Lastly, the King of Pentacles represents mastery and success. This card suggests that they successfully guided you through your grief, leading you to a place of strength and stability.
Additional Message
The Shadows and Light Oracle card “Candy Cane Angel: It’s time for a treat!” brings a message from the Universe: it’s time to spoil yourself, dear Sagittarius. You’ve faced challenging times, but you’ve handled them with grace, and Spirit is proud of you. Now is the time to focus on yourself and indulge in what brings you happiness. The Universe may even have a special reward in store for you.
