In this last of a 12 part series on horoscopes, we're going to look at the third of what are called the winter signs, Pisces the Fishes.
People who are born between February 19 and March 21 are Pisceans. Their element is Water, their quality is Mutable, their energy is Yin, their rulers are Neptune and Jupiter, their color is sea-green, their gem is Aquamarine, their main anatomical parts are the feet, immune system and hormonal system, their keywords are compassion, universality and inclusiveness, their Tarot suit is Cups and their Tarot Major Arcana card is The Moon.
Some famous celebrities who are Pisceans are Queen Latifah, Bruce Willis, Drew Barrymore, Thora Birch, Billy Crystal, Liza Minelli, Ralph Nader and Elizabeth Taylor.
There's an old joke about Pisceans that goes like this. "How many Pisceans does it take to screw in a light bulb?" The answer is, "The light went out".
Sadly, the Piscean can be totally oblivious to the world around them. They live in a world of dreams and fantasy. They have some of the most vivid imaginations of anyone on the planet. They can think of things that most people wouldn't dream of. There isn't a minute during the day that they're not wondering what it would be like to either be back in the days of the dinosaurs or a million years into the future. The real world around them holds very little interest for them. They find it dull and boring. Nothing can compare to what goes on between their ears.
Another thing about somebody born under this sign is that they may know which way the river is running but that still doesn't mean they're going to swim with the current. They will buck the trend if they think that's what they have to do in order to get what they want, whatever that may be. At times they will go with the flow, especially when they are tired of bucking that trend.
This sign is a very loving and romantic sign. Sometimes just the idea of love and romance is enough to make a Piscean fall in love with anyone. Unfortunately, the reality of a love relationship often falls short of what they have built up in their dream world. But if they do find somebody who understands what makes the Piscean tick and this person knows just how to keep the Piscean interested, these are the kind of relationships that love stories are made from.
At the workplace, the fish will combine his dream world with his job. This keeps even the most dull job interesting. For example, while delivering the mail for a large company, as the fish walks into each office he will imagine what it would be like to have that office for himself and be the boss. This constant fantasy world keeps the fish interested at work, no matter what they are actually doing. Because of this, they are actually quite dependable at their jobs, just as long as it doesn't involve speaking to others as most times they wouldn't know what was being said to them anyway. Again, they are oblivious to the light being out. The Piscean can be a good friend. They are loving and kind and wouldn't hurt a soul. Just don't be surprised when you've told them your life story and they turn to you and say, "Did you just say something?"
