Today I pulled for the collective Scorpio 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 Scorpio 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 Scorpio with? Clarify with tarot and also provide a general message with the Shadows & Light Oracle.
Cards pulled:
The Person on Your Mind

General Message
Shadows & Light Oracle Card: Faceless Ghosts and the Haunted Girl: Ghost people
My interpretation:
Your Person
The Shadow Work Oracle card drawn for this person is “Isolation,” which reads, “In solitude, discover your true self and connect deeper.” When you entered this person’s life, dear Scorpio, they were likely in a period of deep isolation. It was your presence that pulled them out of their shell, bringing them back to life and reawakening their connection to the world.
The tarot cards that clarify your impact on them are the Seven of Swords, the Knight of Swords, and The Hanged Man. The Seven of Swords suggests that you were clever and strategic in your approach, subtly coaxing them out of their solitude without them even realizing it. Your resourcefulness and patience played a key role in this transformation. The Knight of Swords represents bold action and courage. Your influence infused them with the energy of this card, helping them transition from being introverted and withdrawn to embracing life with newfound boldness. While they may not have become the life of the party, your presence certainly sparked a significant shift in their demeanor. The Hanged Man indicates that they were able to release old habits and gain a fresh perspective on life, one that is now more dynamic and filled with movement. Your impact on this person was profound, dear Scorpio.
You
The Shadow Work Oracle card drawn for you is “Insecurity,” which reads, “Your worth is intrinsic and unchanging.” You may have struggled with feelings of self-doubt and deep-seated insecurity throughout your life, but this person came into your life to help transform that narrative.
The tarot cards that clarify how this person has helped you are The World, the Four of Wands, and the Five of Wands. The World card speaks of completion, fulfillment, and harmony. There is something you’ve accomplished, dear Scorpio, that you should take pride in, and this person helped you see your achievements in a new light. The Four of Wands echoes this theme with its symbolism of joy, celebration, and successful completion. Their presence gave you a reason to celebrate yourself and your victories, helping you recognize your own worth. The Five of Wands, often a card of conflict, also represents assertiveness. Where you may have once shied away due to insecurity, you’re now finding the strength to be more assertive, willing to engage in healthy debates and stand up for yourself. This person has played a significant role in helping you step out of your shell.
Additional Message
The Shadows and Light Oracle card “Faceless Ghosts and the Haunted Girl: Ghost people” suggests that you may still be haunted by ghosts of the past—perhaps childhood trauma or lingering doubts from earlier experiences that continue to stir emotional turmoil today. The past has a way of resurfacing and affecting our present, but it’s important to remember that what’s done is done. Letting go of these past hurts will allow you to move forward with greater freedom. Release the ghosts that haunt you, dear Scorpio, and embrace the brighter future that lies ahead.
