PERSONALITIES

Pisces is mild, sensitive, accommodating and patient. You never want to hurt anyone or do anyone any harm, and you are a great animal lover, as compassionate towards animals as towards other people. You are friendly, spiritual, good-natured, kind and sympathetic. You are sensitive towards other people’s feelings, but often unpractical and illogical. You have a strong belief in the supernatural and you might be rather religious. You are often very pitying and tactful before any suffering you encounter. You are very concerned with other people’s problems, but not very interested in your own problems, hoping that they in some way will be solved by themselves.

You are very shy, quiet, modest, secretive, moody and introvert, and you might be difficult for other people to understand and to get close to. Often you feel insecure and stressed among people you do not know very well, and you are easily hurt and loosing spirit. You often have a bad self-confidence. Your mood might quickly turn from very optimistic to deeply pessimistic. Sometimes you seem to exist emotionally rather than rationally. You want to be seen as creative and you are very keen on succeeding, but you dislike discipline and restrictions. Often, however, you have got neither the energy nor the motivation to do something radical, and you easily give up.

You like loneliness, and you tend to withdraw into a dream world. You are extremely artistically talented, something which might bring you money and fame. You have an open intellect and a great intuition. You easily understand, and you are a skilful observer and listener. This makes you very creative within literature, music and art. You love beauty, luxury and pleasure, and you dream of travelling to far-away places.

PROFESSIONS

You like best working alone or as a subordinate. You might be a good bookkeeper or secretary. Your compassion for those in need makes you fit well in charity, or as a nurse or veterinarian. To satisfy your need for discovering, you might become a traveller or a sailor. Your spirituality might make you work within church or as a medium or mystic.

RELATIONSHIPS

You are never egoistic, and always faithful, generous and helpful. You are sexually delicate, and sometimes you seem almost asexual. You are very careful, you do not want to rush into anything, and you are very afraid of being hurt. To you, psychological contact is more important than physical.

You are most compatible to

Taurus – This is most times a very successful combination. Your emotional nature find great comfort in compassionate Taurus and Taurus likes your romantic, sensitive and flexible personality. You share a deep love for beauty and passion. Your dreamy nature is brought down to earth by down-to-earth Taurus, and you might make Taurus start dreaming.

Cancer – Your two emotional and changeable personalities are ideal for each other. You are both very home-loving and romantic, and you both have a great need of feeling loved. Your mutual understanding is close to absolute.

Capricorn – There is a lot of sympathy and understanding between your two personalities, which completes each other in an excellent way. Your dreamy personality admires Capricorn’s practical nature, and Capricorn’s calm, stable and down-to-earth personality gives your insecure nature the comfort you need. And just like your dependence increases by time, so does Capricorn’s desire of feeling needed.

Aquarius – Your two dreamy personalities has got great understanding and admiration towards each other. The biggest risk is perhaps that you drift away all too far in your dreams, and forget about reality.

Pisces – You fit excellently together. You share the same interests and preferences, you are equally home-loving and possessive, and you have a great understanding and sympathy towards each other. The biggest risk is perhaps that your dreamy natures sometimes might make you forget about reality for a little too long, and that you avoid taking care of everyday problems and duties.   

You are not as compatible to

Aries – Your sensitive nature do not find much comfort with aggressive Aries. Your dreamy and romantic personality is depending on a tactfulness that Aries lacks.

Gemini – Impatient Gemini has a hard time standing your sensitive and cautious personality, and you get irritated on Gemini’s impatience.

Leo – Leo likes very much being needed and admired, but your affection risks to be all too trying for freedom-loving Leo, and Leo’s sense of pride over being needed might fast turn into contempt for your needy nature. Also, Leo’s straightforward personality might make it easily hurt your sensitive persona. 

Virgo – This might feel like an exciting combination between two opposites, but it will take a lot of patience from Virgo’s part to cope with your moody and sensitive personality.

Libra – There is a strong attraction between you. However, Libra is all too social and restless for your fastidious and shy nature. You want to keep Libra to yourself, and there is a lot of potential for jealousy. 

Scorpio – There is a very strong attraction between you, but your two very sensitive and possessive personalities risk to fast get on each other’s nerves. To begin with, Scorpio appreciate your dependence, but soon Scorpio’s positive feelings of being appreciated turns into irritation and contempt towards your weak nature, and there is a very big risk that you will become very hurt.

Sagittarius – Your needy persona feels like a burden to freedom-loving Sagittarius.

THE MYTH BEHIND THE SIGN

The war between the gods and the titans made Gaia – Mother Earth herself – so to the degree furious that she brought on the horrific monster Typhon. The Gods were surprised by the monster. In the very last moment, the god Pan saw it coming, and shouted out a warning, suggesting all the gods to turn themselves into different animals to hide from the monster and by thus escape its fury.

Venus, the goddess of love, then tied a rope between herself and her son Cupid, so that they would not loose track of each other in the panicked confusion. Then they transformed themselves into fishes, and dived into the river Euphrates.
