As the last sign of the Zodiac, Pisces closes the zodiac circle. Therefore, this sign represents a synthesis, an epilogue of the Sun’s journey through the zodiac signs.
Character traits:
Members of this sign are often very quiet, calm, withdrawn, silent and mysterious. They are characterized by a strong psychological sensitivity, on the basis of which they unconsciously absorb everything they come into contact with. In principle, they are extremely emotional, compassionate, introspective and contemplative. They are inclined to imagine, daydream and fantasize, so they often seem as if they are in another world and from another world. They are prone to extreme mood swings.
Due to their great receptivity and sensitivity to everything and everyone, the members of this sign often have a need for solitude and isolation, because in this way they are cleansed and revitalized. They tend to distance themselves and run away, most often for reasons known only to them.
Under the influence of the ruler of this sign, Neptune, people born under the sign of Pisces are attracted to mysteries, secrets, everything that is undiscovered and invisible, so they have an affinity for mysticism, occultism, esotericism, spirituality, religion, as well as psychology, the study of the unconscious, dreams. For most members of this sign, everything that is visible and tangible is often worthless, boring and even illusory, while everything that is invisible, intangible and unknown is interesting, exciting and actually real.
Under the influence of its rulers, Jupiter and Neptune, most members of this sign are inclined to deal with difficult and complex philosophical questions, to wonder and theorize about the nature of the Universe, God, eternity, higher dimensions.
As a sign of the exaltation of Venus, Pisces is, by definition, the sign of art and the planets that have significant dignities in this sign, Jupiter, Neptune and Venus together literally symbolize artistic inspiration and expression. Therefore, it is not surprising that quite a large number of great artists were born under this sign.
The strength that the planet of love has in this sign show how much love and intimacy are important for its members. They can be very giving and devoted, but high expectations and tendency to idealize in most cases leads to disappointment. They can often become love and sex addicts.
Due to the pronounced empathy, members of this sign can be found in large numbers among doctors, nurses, pedagogues and benefactors.
As a sign of the exile of Mercury, members of this sign often have a problem expressing themselves verbally, they can be irrational, they ignore details and facts, so they often seem confused, vague and uncertain. They are inclined to a magical way of thinking and often rely more on faith, intuition and premonitions than on logic. As such, they are prone to illusions and deceptions, both of themselves and of others.
The negative qualities of this sign come from its qualities, so as much as this sign can give great spiritual teachers, scientists and artists, it can also give great fraudsters, thieves, spies, conspirators, as well as lunatics, alcoholics, drug addicts, drug dealers and sellers of fog.
