The symbol of the FISH expresses the character of those born between the dates of February 20 and March 19. Pisceans are known for their illusive and sensitive nature. For the most part they are the introverts and dreamers of the zodiac. A gentler, more charming bunch of souls you'll never find! Although Piceans are apt to underplay their personal importance, they have the capacity to enrich the lives of those around them. Pisces are the ones that spot overlooked treasures in fleamarkets or adopt stray animals. Pisceans have an incredible ability to see the best in things even, especially, in the worst of times. They also tend not to see the inherent flaws, allowing for some self-deception. And there are times when Pisceans would prefer to escape from the harsh realities of life and reside in a softer, happier world. While alcohol and drugs might appear to offer temporary respite, the gruesome realities of substance abuse really must be considered. It is very important that Pisceans look after the material side of life, particularly the care of their physical bodies.
Pisceans are so acutely aware of the human condition, that many select relief and charity work as their life work. Others are employed in the medical field as physicians, nurses and aides. There is great reward in assisting individuals who are disabled or institutionalized. The compassion of Pisces suits work in hospices and organizations that counsel individuals with terminal illness. Other Pisceans qualify for positions in rehabilitation units, halfway houses and prisons by moving through the systems themselves. Many of the homeless and welfare population are Pisceans, as well as much of the faceless work force. Some Pisceans devote themselves to the religious life as priests, monks, and nuns. A few explore their spiritual gifts as a psychics or channels. Lots of Pisceans live out fantasies in the performing arts as actors and dancers. The truly inspired musician, poet or artist is a Piscean at heart. Photography and cinema are perfect for self-expression. Traditionally any employment related to the sea is considered within the realm of Pisces.
Pisceans are bewildering to live with as they are happy one moment and sad the next. Influenced by the emotional currents around them sometimes they do not know what they feel. Often they feel pulled in all directions. They do best listening to that quiet voice within and acting in accordance to their own truth. Pisceans must avoid playing the role of victim and becoming lost in self-pity. They need to know where to draw the line concerning self-sacrifice, otherwise they can become discouraged or bitter. What's spiritual in being a doormat? Hopelessness is an attitude which can be transmuted into hopefulness. Prayer and meditation can be very beneficial. Pisceans learn to draw upon the same faith they give out to others, acting as a light for all.
