"Harmony isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A true harmonous card; the deeper sense of fulfillment that comes from emotional wellbeing. Your family is aligned, your relationships are balanced, and your journey has led to prosperity.
Things are good-- the ups and downs of life are present but you can handle them with ease and love and the help of the family you've built for yourself. Romantically your focus should be finding and loving people who feel nurturing and secure. Nest, create memories, find joy in the moment. If there's someone important in your life (a parent, sibling, friend) that you feel distanced from, a chance for reconciliation might be near.
There's dysfunction blocking you from true emotional fulfillment. Perhaps a conflict with a parent or partner (someone that was supposed to make you feel at home) that seems unresolvable or emotionally painful. The reversed ten of cups lets us know that an opportunity to reconcile is coming up, but make sure to make a plan to care for yourself emotionally before jumping in head first on repairing

Ten of Cups for Scorpio in Love and Relationships
The Transformer
Cups are the water suit, so the Ten of Cups sits in Scorpio. That makes this Scorpio's own card, so nothing in it is being read from the outside, and the flattering interpretation is the one to distrust. What it asks for is the thing Scorpio already believes it is good at: say the feeling to the person it is about. Upright, it is complete, which is not automatically the same as good.
When reading about relationships through a Scorpio lens, the Ten of Cups says that you feel like intimacy is something you test by revealing small secrets and watching what gets repeated (or protected), a gamble where the stakes are everything, and the only way to know if someone stays. This has either led to you building something real with someone who did not flinch, or to you leaving before they could. The thing you're not saying out loud is the thing that matters most. The Scorpio blind spot in it is the feeling of being fooled, or of being seen as naive, or of depending on someone who will leave.
In practice that can look like an old love resurfacing, or new love. Whatever form it takes, it is completing, possibly past the point it was useful.
