Of course, after #Aquarius has poured its steely and idealized waters on us, we see two fishes swimming in opposite directions before us.
This is #Pisces. Pisces memorializes the struggle of how the impermanent is made to endure, of how what endures dissolves away
This has real-world correlations like how #Pisceans feel both the exhilaration & challenge of having bodies while seeking more…
It's interesting to see what that "more" becomes for different Pisceans: sometimes it's healing, transcendental experiences…
...paradise, physical perfection, perfect romantic love; but whatever it is, something that prompts a long journey from within…
& this is 1 of the key things that #Pisces comes to symbolize, the long inner journey. This makes sense since the patron planet…
...Jupiter is abt expansion, growth & understanding. Besides the fish, another great symbol of this inner journey: the sea.
Although I don't believe Neptune is the ruler of Pisces, I get why some folks see it as such. Neptune, Roman god of the sea.
1 is Yemaya, the other is Olokun. More @: bit.ly/1KzaKf Olokun is more the depths of the sea, so #Pisces is not just…
...the expanse of the ocean as we see it from shore to shore, but also the depth that we may never see, may never understand.
To be direct: There is some part of #Pisces in your life that you may never understand. Hell, even what a #Pisces may never understand.
In fact, what's entrancing for us about #Pisces and for them is the "lure of the deep," as I like to call it.
This has profound mental, spiritual, & emotional implications cuz Pisceans often struggle, especially early in life...
w/ how to surface their feelings, their thoughts or how to articulate their sense of the world, philosophy or spirit and…
...it often seems at cross-purposes w/ many of the ppl around them, esp. family. This may not lead to outright rebellion though
Even though there may be some resentment abt having to bring others into their seas, wondering if they can handle the depth
#Pisces are not quite so impatient as to just completely swim away, early on.
There's an underground wisdom, sometimes really deep down that always keeps a Pisces looking for the right moment to swim away.
They may find that right moment eventually.
But early on in life, they may not know all their "powers," be able to tap into the full vastness accessible to them.
This is how #Pisces may get the undeserved reputation of being flighty, flaky & just so dreamy as almost not to seem real.
Of course, some #Pisces get locked into their own seas for too long and can become most of those things.
This is not the case for most. Most swim enough in the circumference of their pools, seas, oceans to find more of their course
And the idea of fish is very varied. It's the size of the "tank" that will determine the health & "size" of a #Pisces.
Take goldfish. They can become huge if put in a tank large enough 2 accommodate them. Or be much smaller in a small one. #Pisces
Likewise, a goldfish puts out an immense amount of toxicity from their gills & feces and will die if not provided w/ fresher water.
This is such an apt metaphor for #Pisces. #Pisces are sensitive, but not in the way of being "delicate."
If not given enough space, #Pisces can absorb the toxicity of places & people around them, even springing physical dis-ease.
What's deep is that the lack of clear processing for #Pisces can lead them to be chief agents for releasing toxicity to others.
Maybe that's 1 of the reasons why #Pisces change so much: low threshold for BS. If they don't, it's hard to trudge along.
Again, it's not just what's materially present that affects them.
Over the years, I've kept a quiet tally of what sign uses the word "vibe"/"vibes" most. No surprise that it's #Pisces, right?
And it's real. #Pisces will pay & should pay attention to a vibe before almost anything else they see.
A #Pisces & a #Taurus could walk into an immaculate home. #Taurus might feel "blessed" by the high-end, comfortable things there.
The #Pisces feels nothing but control and wants to leave, baffling everybody. 9/10, the #Pisces will be spot on.
Doesn't mean that a #Pisces will always be right abt their vibes. Depends on how much space they've had for their breadth/depth
But if they've had time & space to explore those depths, there are very few on the planet who will prove them wrong.
That brings up another interesting & mysterious aspect about #Pisces. Many don't know how they know what they know.
This is especially true if you have a Mercury in #Pisces. You might be able to solve a math problem, but not be able to show your work. Or know how you got the answer
Like #Pisces Edgar Cayce. He could spout wisdom in a trance state from books that he only touched.
Of course,not all #Pisces have it like that. But young #Pisceans, esp. seem to know things, talk abt things they shouldn't.
This could continue to adulthood. What's sad is that some #Pisces may come to trust LESS what they just know than MORE.
I think the mistake they make is that they come to trust the world they see w/ one fish's eyes than the eyes of their inner fish.
The true challenge of #Pisces is to see AS well w/ the eyes of the inner fish as much as the outer fish.
Of course, another avatar of this kind of seeing and knowing is #Pisces Albert Einstein.
Einstein didn't think the theory of relativity as much as imagine it. He said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge"
Another model of this is #Pisces Steve Jobs, of Apple corp. At one point, Apple even said, "Imagine," for their ads.
There are lots of theories on why #Pisces have this gift, from reincarnation as old souls or #Pisces as culmination of all.
Take your pick. I tend not to choose either, especially the last one. Pisces is no more the culmination of all signs than Aquarius of the previous 10.
I think it's just the nature of the sign to be able to have access to Jupiter's deep wisdom.
What helps though is for #Pisces to have access to space for him/herself. This is crucial.
I used to watch Deep Space Nine in the 90s. One of my fave characters was Odo. Odo taught me a lesson about #Pisces
Similar to Odo, #Pisces can shapeshift, but socially. However, Odo had to turn into a bucket of goo regularly or die
#Pisceans have to turn into a bucket of goo regularly or die/go crazy/murder someone, etc.
By goo, I mean where they can lose themselves into something like dreaming, sleeping, watching movies, sex, etc. to reconstitute
Of course, the dangerous "goo" are drugs & alcohol.
This is not to say that ALL drugs and ALL alcohol are bad. What's dangerous is how the #Pisces might come to use them.
If a #Pisces loses connection w/ his/her own depth, then what happens is that they may try to find it by artificial means.
Could be lots of reasons why & how one loses "one's depth," & I'll get to that; but when it happens, drugs ain't the way back.
This is sort of personal for me cuz when I lived in NYC, I watched a #Piscean neighbor destroy his life w/ a crack addiction at 40.
The real problem is moderation, a #Jupiter challenge to say the least. It's also what you use to get to certain depths before you're ready.
From a spiritual point of view, some drugs can be considered "cheating," accelerating you to mind states before you've built the right vessel…
...to contain those altered mind states. Most synthetic drugs are made w/o consideration for sustaining vessels, so…
But I digress. Morality isn't the issue here. The issue is the sensitivity of #Pisces to altered states
For ex., I have a #Pisces buddy who got high on NYE 1989. While high, he realized that come 1999 there'd be a huge computer prob.
So he got a degree in computer science, made a shitload of money solving Y2K probs for banks, retired in 1999 a millionaire & moved to a developing nation.
Now that's a fine functioning #Pisces. LOL!
A little bit about how #Pisceans may lose their depths.
The way I've observed the most is thru the heart, thru the dream of romantic love.
#Pisces, you have two fish, a duality by which you make your world whole.
You will always make a mistake if you make a person the other fish. #Pisces
What led to my former neighbor's drug spiral was his frustration abt finding a deeper love, the unfulfillment of his own deep heart.
What led to my former neighbor's drug spiral was his frustration abt finding a deeper love, the unfulfillment of his own deep heart.
Anyway, #Pisceans have to be wary of cynicism or feeding the fish that lives only on the surface of the waters of the world.
When my neighbor, for example, lost faith in deep love, he started having random sex encounters to fill a void, found more to fill
We would talk about this on the train to our jobs. Eventually he was just on the train to his welfare-to-work volunteer program.
He once had a cushy Wall Street job. #Pisces
Anyway, a #Pisces must feed the other fish that swims in deeper waters as well. However you do that is wide open.
I know a #Pisces who chants everyday. I used to pray w/a #Pisces who is ALWAYS at the mosque. Another meditates. One loves astrology.
Find something that allows you to experience devotion in your life, #Pisces.
It's whatever gets you to experience the awe of life, #Pisces. You know life is a miracle & you're here to remind the rest of us.
But you forget and then you remind us. The hazard is when you forget for too long.
As for love, when you do find it, it brings the best out of you. You love wholly. Perhaps you must also reserve some for yourself.
For example, in the 2012 election, I didn't believe 99% of what #Pisces Mitt #Romney said. But...I believe he loves Ann.
In fact, I believe the true Mitt shines through when he talks about her or his family. #Pisces
Yet there is a struggle for love that sometimes a #Pisces can confuse for how love has to be.
This could be something that a number of #Pisces stars have struggled w/ like Liz Taylor, Vanessa Williams or Rihanna.
What's more, they also feel a certain wariness about love because some are more devoted to their looks than themselves.
#Pisces is not only inspired by beauty, but they also seem to enchant others with their own beauty too.
The beauty doesn't have to be their actual physical beauty, but it could be from their creative work as well.
This is when #Pisces must learn more from their polarity, #Virgo.
From #Virgo, #Pisces can learn to use discernment for when someone's really into them, not only enchanted.
I had some similar thoughts about enchantment & illumination some time back: wp.me/p4lMl2-BZ
I had some similar thoughts about enchantment & illumination some time back: wp.me/p4lMl2-BZ
As I alluded earlier, people confuse the sensitivity of #Pisces for weakness. This can prove a deadly mistake. Literally.
This is why I include #Pisces as the consigliere of something I dub the #ZodiacMafia. More here:
The imagination, versatility & empathy of #Pisces can become formidable when motivated by darker feelings or revenge.
It's no accident that in many studies of serial killers that #Pisces comes up pretty frequently. So don't mistake #pisces for a mark (even when they act like it)
...cuz you could mistake a killer whale for a sweet dolphin. Heck, even dolphins have their darker sides: dailym.ai/17Dnx1D
I hope this burst of tweets about#Pisces has been insightful.
Of course, all these statements depend on the dynamics of your own personal horoscope, not just 1 sign. This is a general guide.

Good points in this article if it’s not behind a paywall. But I’m amazed how the author also doesn’t mention how communist/totalitarian states also learned to have hybrid capitalistic economies. That changes everything. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…
For example, during much of the Cold War, countries like India and China had closed economies. But as they opened their economies up, they were better able to support themselves. Russia has learned to do the same, unlike its Soviet self.
If you can have a thriving economy without democracy and more civic safety even (and compliance), many more nations, like China and Russia, are like why try to have a democracy?

If I ever went to the dark side and became a full-on skeptic (and this has happened with a few astrologers actually), among the first things I would attack are people's attachment to signs (what I call signology) and houses. They are THE shakiest aspects of astrology.
Zodiac signs are interesting and fun, but the real protein in astrology rests with the dynamics of the planets and stars themselves. In fact, what many don't know is that much of the significations for the signs come from the planets that rule them, their modality, and...
connection with the turns of the Sun's motion along its ecliptic. Learn more about the significations of the planets and, wait for it, the aspects they make in charts.
