The Pisces Zodiac Profile |
Dates: February 19th through March 18th
Pisces is the twelfth Sign of the Zodiac. It is the final Sign
in the cycle of the Zodiac, and it brings together all that is
learned by the first eleven Signs to help man reach the pinnacle
of his potential. Pisceans are selfless and spiritual, often
strongly intuitive, and they are receptive to the collective
unconscious. Pisces is the Sign of dreams and secrets, and it
represents much that is hidden, both strengths and enemies. As
the twelfth Sign, Pisces also rules the twelfth House: the House
of the Unconscious.

The Sign In Depth
The Astrological Symbol of Pisces is the Pair of Fishes. They
reflect the dual nature of life; each Fish swims in different
directions, representing reality and nonreality, consciousness
and the unconscious. On the other hand, they can be indirect and
unfocused. Pisceans don't have a strong agenda; they tend to
"go with the flow" and move where life takes them. In
this way, Pisces exemplifies the Mutable Quality assigned to it.
They are the chameleons of the Zodiac, receptive to the needs of
others but sometimes getting lost themselves. Within the Zodiac,
Pisces is opposite Virgo, the Sign of Health. While Virgo is
about consciousness and physical life, Pisces tends to be about
the unconscious and mental and emotional life. Both Signs are of
service to others; Pisces is charitable and self-sacrificing,
but may sometimes be too passive and gullible for their own
good.
Pisces is ruled by the Planets Jupiter and Neptune. In ancient
Roman mythology, Jupiter (and his Greek equivalent, Zeus) was
the King of the Gods. Neptune (and his Greek equivalent,
Poseidon) was the God of the Sea. Jupiter rules Pisces and
Sagittarius; Pisces is the feminine, or night aspect and
Sagittarius is the masculine, or day. Both Signs are spiritually
oriented, but Sagittarius is a teacher and thinker while Pisces
is more focused on compassion and service than knowledge. When
Neptune was discovered, modern astrologers assigned it to be the
ruler of Pisces. Neptune is about everything that isn't quite
real: illusion and disillusionment, fantasy, drama and art, and
spirituality. All of these things are important to people born
under Pisces; they tend to be strongly spiritual (not
necessarily religious) and artistic. They are idealistic, but
sometimes their dreams are vague and impractical. When reality
intrudes they can become pessimistic or lethargic, but they are
very adaptive and broad-minded so they can rework their ideals
when necessary.
The Element associated with Pisces is Water. Water Signs are
emotional: they tend to respond to the world through emotion,
rather than physical action, practicality, or intellect. In
Pisces, Water becomes important because of its tie to the
collective unconscious and intuition. Pisceans are
compassionate, sensitive, and imaginative; they are sympathetic
to the feelings of other people. They tend to be romantic and
sentimental, but they may give in to escapism. They are devoted
to their goals, but they can be disorganized or procrastinate
when things become difficult. People born under Pisces are
devoted and gentle, but they are fragile and may become timid if
their emotions are abused too often.
Pisceans tend to be shy and quiet. They are sometimes elusive,
refusing to show their real selves. They are modest and
thoughtful, sometimes displaying remarkable musical talent.
Because Pisces rules the twelfth House, which rules dreams,
people born under this Sign may be fascinated with dreams and
dream interpretation. They are also more susceptible than other
Signs to the attraction of mind- or mood-altering drugs, as they
may go through life with a feeling of nonreality that is
magnified by these drugs.
In their leisure time, Pisces may work to alleviate their
emotional stress through exercise. They especially enjoy sports
that bring them into contact with their own Element of Water,
such as swimming and sailing. They are very artistic, and may
excel at music and drama. In love relationships, Pisces is
caring, devoted, and romantic.
Pisces rules the feet. People born under Pisces may be more
susceptible to sore and swollen feet than people of other Signs.
Pisces's colors are white and purple.
The great strength of the Pisces-born is in their compassion.
They reach out to other people more skillfully than most other
Signs, and especially enjoy helping others reach their fullest
potential. Their natural sensitivity makes them one of the most
understanding characters of the Zodiac.
