The feelings are mutual, you are on the same page and you are making prolonged eye contact. In love and romance this is a steamy card about connecting with another person on a deep level, but it can be a partnership outside of the romantic

Two of Cups for Scorpio in Health and Energy

The Transformer

Cups are the water suit, so the Two 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, the second thing has actually arrived and the negotiation between them is live.

When reading about health through a Scorpio lens, the Two of Cups says that you feel like your body is something you ignore until the problem is undeniable, a machine you are behind on maintaining (or refuse to examine closely), and a frontier you do not trust yourself to explore. This has either led to you discovering something serious late, or to you becoming obsessively knowledgeable about the one thing you do decide to fix. The body has been sending the same signal for months and nobody has bothered to listen. 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 a stress that shows up in the body. Whatever form it takes, it is becoming a two person situation.
