The
Sun brightened sensitive Pisces, a feminine
sign, in the Zodiac on your birthday.
In astrology, the Sun stands for your
inner nature, the true mark of your character.
The twelfth sign of the Zodiac, Pisces
is ruled by fortunate Jupiter and new
age Neptune. A mutable (changeable and
communicative) sign, dreamy Pisces is
the exaltation of Venus, the goddess of
love and artistic sensibility. It is a
water sign, so Piscean people are creative,
sensitive and deeper than they appear
on the surface, although they can be emotionally
vulnerable, clinging and rather melancholic.
The light of the Sun, ruler of our inner
nature, is somewhat dimmed in Pisces,
the home of Jupiter (lord of the gods)
and his elusive brother Neptune (the king
of the sea). Jupiter gives you a thirst
for knowledge and understanding, with
a natural lucky streak. Neptune brings
out your sensitive and spiritual qualities,
but it can also lay you open to deception
and intrigue (that is if it's not you
who is doing the deceiving!). You have
probably noticed that Neptune can stimulate
a thirst of a quite different variety
-- a thirst for liquor, drugs and addictive
substances in general (including the addictions
of love... ). Both of these great planets
influence your personality.
Sensitive Pisces reacts emotionally to
everything. You just give in to your feelings,
a trait which can lay you open to control
by the unscrupulous. But then, you yourself
are fairminded and not at all afraid to
bend unbreakable rules, should the situation
demand a more humane approach. You would
make an excellent judge, a sensitive administrator,
or a quite inspirational teacher.
Compassionate Pisces is idealistic, although
you have a tendency towards sacrificing
yourself on the altar of love, or some
other noble cause. Hmmm. You really must
watch that tendency to play the martyr.
Despite your sensitive personality and
delicate physical constitutions, you really
are a survivor. You outlast those who
may be much stronger, by adapting more
easily to the demands of changing circumstances.
Your intuitions are reliable and should
be trusted; you may even have natural
psychic powers, which can be developed,
given the right circumstances. However,
because you are adaptable and so readily
identify with the feelings of others,
you risk exploitation and loss of your
own needs, ideas, and talent. Of course,
intuitive Pisces understands the moods
and behaviour of others so well that you
can be quite a manipulator behind the
scenes. Pisces is a dual sign, which has
both an up and a down-side. The two fishes
in your astrological sigil swim in either
direction. Here is your choice: focus,
be strong and overcome the weaknesses
in your sensitive nature, or dissolve
in vague longings and become the victim
of your own vulnerability. For the sake
of your emotional equilibrium, develop
a private place of your own, or at least
take a private time for daily retreat
and relaxation. Your most creatively stimulating
and soothing environment is close to water,
especially near the ocean.
Shy Pisceans would much rather impersonate
someone else than be themselves. No wonder
so many of you are actors, artists, writers,
and dreamers. Elusive Neptune makes it
hard to predict how you will develop.
Some of you are neat and well organized,
while others become slovenly and careless
- largely a reflection of your emotional
reactions to the environment. Your intense
imagination can lead you to stretch the
truth under many circumstances, the other
side of the coin to your creative ability
write fantastic novels, poetry and produce
other artistic endeavours.
Confronting your own vulnerability, you
can be a daredevil and risk-taker. The
thrills of car racing, piloting a plane,
exploring the wilderness, or hunting game
can be seductive. A compulsive eater,
you face a lifelong battle of the bulge.
Sports and physical fitness routines are
a good way to keep in shape and reduce
emotional stress. Horseback riding, dancing,
skating, swimming or sailing are favoured
activities.
Pisces rules the feet and lymphatic system.
Swelling, allergic reaction to drugs,
injuries to the feet and related problems
are common complaints, but your emotional
nature can also make you vulnerable to
psychosomatic illness.
Your colours are pale
green, purple, rose, and grey-blue. Pisces
rules metallic pewter, while your birthstones
are aquamarine, chrysolite and moonstone.
Aquamarine seems to disappear when placed
under water, like your shy Piscean self,
which often wishes it could disappear
so easily. Flowers for Pisces are the
orchid, lilac, wisteria, lotus, white
poppy, and pansy.
