Sun in Pisces
Pisces is a
mutable water sign.
Her key words are
"I believe." She
rules the feet and
the lymphatic
system. Pisces is
the most sensitive,
imaginative, and
compassionate sign
of the Zodiac. She
is also creative,
psychic, and
spiritually
oriented.
Like
all water signs,
Pisces lives in her
feelings. But water
signs express their
sensitivities
differently.
Cancer's primary
concern is for her
family, Scorpio's
for whomever she
chooses to care
about, while Pisces'
sensitivity extends
to everyone and
everything. She can
read a sad story in
the paper and be
upset. Situations
don't have to happen
to her or her
friends, relatives,
or neighbors for her
to be emotionally
concerned.
Like
her ruler, Neptune,
Pisces lacks
boundaries. Her
sensitivity causes
her to absorb
unconsciously what's
going on around
her. She has
difficulty
distinguishing her
own feelings from
the vibrations of
her environment. If
she's upset and her
environment is
jovial, her mood
will improve. If she
is happy and the
environment is sad,
she takes on its
sadness. Because of
this she needs time
to retreat and to be
alone. Through
meditation she can
learn to distinguish
what stems from
herself and what
comes from the
environment.
Pisces has a poetic
soul, strong
imagination, and
creative vision.
She's the most
artistic of all the
signs. She more than
loves what's
beautiful; she feels
connected with it.
Creative endeavors
such as poetry, art,
music, dance, and
theater whether for
fun or for profit,
provide healthy
escapes for her. If
she's sad or upset,
listening to
beautiful music or
taking a trip to a
museum can put her
in a better
mood.
Pisces is a romantic
idealist who longs
to transcend earthly
existence. She sees
life the way it
should be. She sees
the best in people
and situations. Her
attitude is, "Why
see the bad when you
can see the
good?"
In
romance Pisces wants
to fall in love with
Prince (or Princess)
Charming and live
happily ever after.
She puts her lover
on a pedestal. She
becomes an actress
and plays whatever
part she believes he
would like--after
all, he's so
wonderful how could
she help herself?
The problem is that
she's longing for a
romantic ideal, a
union with God, and
that longing is
unlikely to be
satisfied by a mere
human being.
Her
idealism and
sensitivity, coupled
with her strong
sympathy for the
underdog, cause her
to take care of
others, regardless
of the romantic
attachment. She has
difficulty saying
no, refusing another
whose need may be
greater than her
own.
Idealistically, this
appears very noble,
but in real life it
causes her
tremendous pain.
Pisces unwillingness
to see people's
flaws makes her a
poor judge of
character. She has
a way of choosing
people who will take
advantage of her,
and the faults she
refuses to see have
a way of hitting her
over the head when
she least expects
it. The difference
between the way life
is supposed to be
and the way it is
becomes her
nemesis. She feels
crushed when she
discovers that she's
been deceived,
regardless of
whether she was
purposely deceived
by the other person
or by her image of
him.
When
disappointed, Pisces
seeks to escape. At
best, she needs time
alone. At worst,
she falls prey to
drugs and alcohol.
Given her physically
sensitive system and
her dislike of the
material world, if
she falls too far,
it can be difficult
to climb out.
There's a negative
side of Pisces
that's rarely
discussed. It
happens when her
sensitivities turn
inward instead of
outward. She still
cares for those
around her, but she
becomes too immersed
in her own feelings
to be concerned for
anyone else. She
expresses an "I'm
feeling bad, take
care of me" attitude
and becomes
demanding.
Pisces' main lesson
in life comes from
the discrepancies
between the
spiritual ideal and
the real in the
physical universe.
While her ruler
Neptune's view of
transcendence, love,
and peace
predominate on the
spiritual plane,
those on earth still
live under Saturn's
domain and must pay
at least some homage
to his rule.
