Pisces Sign: Flexibility and Compassion |

The Pisces sign has its name in the plural, although not everyone realizes it. It’s not “fish”, it’s “fish”. One that swims up, one that swims down. It so happens that this sign, as well as Twins, Virgin It is Sagittarius, belongs to the Mutable Triplicity and is therefore a sign of a dual nature. Ambivalent, torn between two worlds. It’s even difficult to define whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert, since it depends on the moment and the tide. It is coherent in its inconsistency and finds itself in disagreements.

Who is Piscean?

In Western Astrology, we say that people born between the days of Pisces are Pisces. February 20th and March 20th, although this period may vary by up to one day depending on the year of birth. Those people who were born with the Ascendant or the Moon in Pisces, or with Neptune in a prominent position in the Astral Chart also have strong Piscean traits.

The inclination to change your mind is not a weakness in this case, but your greatest strength. While people suffer from their inflexibility and rigidity, Pisces remains that almost indestructible type, as it adapts to the environment. Difficult to grasp, because it is slippery, it is capable of beating apparently stronger people precisely because of its changeable, ambivalent and adaptable characteristics.

powerful will

This adaptability, however, is only apparent. As with the Water signs, he manages to subtly manipulate everything, making – in the end – the environment to adapt to his desires. The difference is that while Cancer is tenacious and Scorpio is willful, the classic Pisces type seems harmless. The Piscean will is not apparent, but it is more powerful, as it comes together with a sense of experience, of already knowing this world. It turns out that one of the greatest abilities of Pisces lies precisely in the power to absorb the experience of others. It works more or less like this: why do I have to go through this, if someone I know has already gone through it and I can learn from him?

Pisces is traditionally ruled by the planet Jupiter and modernly by Neptune. From this dual rulership derives his normally compassionate nature and interest in helping others. At the highest level, Pisceans are truly dedicated to helping others and getting involved in social causes. The exaggeration of this leads us to the dark aspect of the sign: the tendency to put yourself in situations where you are transformed into a victim, a sufferer, someone that people “ride”. In time, the typical Piscean learns to balance the exaggerations and moves away from being the victim of abusers, understanding that even compassion, when excessive, can become a great evil.

The ability to tune in to subjective aspects of reality gives typical Pisceans an unusual talent for understanding their environment in a deeper than normal way. And it is from this intense dive into the subtle and the invisible that Pisces becomes one of the most mysterious and fascinating signs of the Zodiac.
