Pisces (Feb 18 - Mar 20)

Pisces is the Mutable stage of the Water element and is ruled by the lunar side of Jupiter. This means that Pisces uses Jupiter's powers of knowledge and imagination in order convert (Mutable stage) individual emotions (Water element) that are impressed on them into one single entity. Up until Pisces, the Zodiac began with individuality and broadened its social circle with each sign; going from the individual beginnings represented by Aries, then widening the circle of friends, family, groups, and nations until the forming of large ideologies represented by Aquarius. Pisces is the sign that incorporates all the emotions, experiences, strengths, etc. of all the other 11 signs in the Zodiac.

Anything is possible in the world of Pisces but nothing is defined. Their world is not only limitless, but also shapeless.

Pisces exist in the past, present, and future all at the same time. Anything is possible in the world of Pisces but nothing is defined. Their world is not only limitless, but also shapeless. The best analogy to describe Pisces is to look at a new package of multi-colored clay. In the beginning, all the colors are clearly defined and individual. By the time a child has played with it and mashed it up, all the colors are mixed into one solid color that consists of all the other colors. The Water element is what makes Pisces intuitive, nurturing, compassionate, imaginative, and sensitive. The Mutable stage is what makes Pisces flexible, complex, adaptable, resourceful, and love change.

Pisces represents the "Ancient Soul" stage in the Astrological Karmic Cycle. It is the last stop in the Zodiac train, so to speak, the final stage the soul has to go through. Anyone who has reached the stage of Pisces has already gone through all the other 11 signs. In this stage, the soul has come to learn all the important lessons that she has to learn yet failed to do so in her last 11 stages. Therefore, Pisces is also equipped with the knowledge and the potential strengths of all the other 11 signs.

This is by far the most complex stage of all. Chances are that anyone who is a Pisces will not succeed to learn all their lessons during their first time; barring some very "advanced" souls who chose to come back in order to help other lost souls. Having gone through all the other stages, the Pisces soul feels sympathy towards and understand the other signs of the Zodiac.

The Pisces soul acts like a blank film; absorbing all the emotional impressions of a person, idea, object, etc. and resembling it so well that it is impossible to tell the difference between Pisces and what they absorbed. This is the reason Pisces is called the "Chameleon of the Zodiac". Their life mantra is "I believe", for Pisces believes that pain and suffering aren't a part of the ultimate divine plan and that mankind must be unified and taught a higher purpose. Pisces came to teach that "love is compassion" and to learn that "love is EVERYTHING"; Pisces' biggest challenge in life is how to absorb everything yet not lose themselves in the process.

"Because Pisces is a mix of all the signs that came before it, their best path in life is one that allows them to use their 'shape-shifting' abilities for good—healing, art, or anything that requires deep empathy. When they are in tune with their intuition, they can navigate life with a supernatural kind of wisdom, avoiding obstacles that others would crash into.

However, the biggest pitfall for Pisces is 'emotional drowning.' Because they absorb everyone else's feelings like a sponge, they can easily lose sight of their own identity and goals. This leads to a tendency to drift aimlessly or hide from reality through escapism and substance abuse. A good piece of advice for Pisces would be to find a 'grounding wire'—a practical friend or a structured hobby—that keeps them attached to the earth while their mind swims in the stars. They need to learn that saying 'no' to others is sometimes the only way to say 'yes' to themselves.

Pisces are very big lovers of fish and everything else that comes from the sea. Liquid-based foods are also a favorite of theirs and so are foods with smooth textures. Pisces are also big fans of alcohol; it changes and intensifies their emotions. Pisces are usually not particularly athletic and for sure not competitive. Therefore, the sports Pisces enjoy are more on the artistic, solo side. Pisces enjoy swimming, dancing, fishing, and all other water sports. Their other hobbies usually have something to do with pictures; capturing their essence, feeling, and precise vision. Filming and photography are big on their list; so is going to the movies.

As for clothing, Pisces can wear and look great in practically anything. In Pisces' case, the clothes literally "make the man". Pisces are influenced greatly by what they wear and their behavior and mood will change according to what they wear. Since Pisces' associated body part are the feet, they are infatuated with shoes and possesses many different pairs. Pisces also have a strange hobby to fool people. It is usually harmless, insignificant foolery, yet highly entertaining to this fish. If Pisces have succeeded in fooling someone that the sky is green colored when it is actually blue, they would be greatly pleased.

Everyone looks for something specific out of a friendship. For Pisces, this concept revolves around two important matters that possess the same root. The first thing that Pisces look for in a friendship is an emotional response from their new acquaintance; anger, fear, sadness, excitement, or any other emotion that Pisces can feed off and arouses their imagination. For this reason you might see Pisces hang around loud, extravagant people. This is also the reason Pisces find it hard to be tied down to just one friend; they need a variety of fluctuating emotions that one person cannot provide.

The second thing Pisces looks for in a new friendship is the need for assistance. People who are going through a hard period of time, are addicted to substances, or are just down on their luck. The harder the case, the more Pisces feel compelled to befriend this person; even if this person is rude and disrespectful towards Pisces in return. Pisces love to help and be of servitude. But the underlying reason for this fascination with the needy is the emotional responses they provide Pisces, just like the first reason.

In Pisces you will find a friend who is nice, accommodating, easy going, goes with the flow, humble, and adventurous. You will find that your friend the Pisces will mimic your favorite hobby and become vastly knowledgeable in it within a short amount of time. When they will tire from it, they will seek out a different adventure. However, do not expect your new friend to be one who is always reliable, responsible, or on time; Pisces sometimes wanders off into their own version of reality and forgets their other arrangements.

Whatever you say to them, make sure you are sensitive. If Pisces are in a bad mood, they expresses it passive-aggressively with witty and satirical remarks that can be hurtful. Pisces enjoy fooling people with small, insignificant trickeries. You will be wise to pretend you were fooled in order to amuse them and put their mischievous mind to rest.

Pisces are hopeless romantics by nature. When Pisces fall in love, it is usually a loud and colorful event. Pisces fall in love with the person who can create such a special feeling within them that they cannot get enough of; it doesn't necessarily have to be the feeling of love. Within the relationship, Pisces prefer to be on the giving end rather than the receiving end. Pisces bring with them their very sensitive and understanding manner which they use to understand their mate and comfort him/her in times of need. Pisces themselves, however, are hard to read.

Pisces fall in love with the person who can create such a special feeling within them that they cannot get enough of; it doesn't necessarily have to be the feeling of love.

The male Pisces is charming and charismatic; he is able to paint a dream inside any woman's head and cause her to fall in love with him. However, the Pisces male has a difficult time staying with one woman for the rest of his life; he begins to feel constricted after a while. His mate will be wise to provide the variety of emotions and experience he longs for. The Pisces male also looks for a mate who provides him with emotional support and pushes him to accomplish his dreams.

The female Pisces is the embodiment of the fair, charming, feminine, damsel in distress. She is quite sought after by many men due to her humble, sweet, accommodating manner; never demanding or pressing her man for much. In her eyes, her man can overcome any obstacle in the world and she is willing to do anything for him. All the Pisces woman asks in return is for her man to protect and take care of her. In a low circumstance, this defenseless damsel has the power to become deceitful and manipulative; the Pisces woman can wrap almost any man around her finger and make him do anything.

Pisces' related body parts are the feet since they are the end of the Zodiac. Their lucky color is ocean blue, their lucky stone is amethyst, their lucky number is 3, their lucky day is Thursday, and their lucky metal is tin.
