Of all the Signs of the Zodiac, the intuitive and emotional faculties of the Pisces are the most highly developed. They are committed to living by their intuition and this can at times be infuriating to other people – especially those who are materially-, scientifically- or technically-orientated. If you think that money or status or worldly success are the only goals in life, then you will never understand a Pisces.
Pisces have intellect, but to them intellect is only a means by which they can rationalize what they know intuitively. To an Aquarius or a Gemini the intellect is a tool with which to gain knowledge. To a well-developed Pisces it is a tool by which to express knowledge.
Pisces feel like fish in an infinite ocean of thought and feeling. This ocean has many depths, currents and undercurrents. They long for purer waters where the denizens are good, true and beautiful, but they are sometimes pulled to the lower, murkier depths. Pisces know that they do not generate thoughts but only tune in to thoughts that already exist; this is why they seek the purer waters. This ability to tune in to higher thoughts inspires them artistically and musically.
Since Pisces is so spiritually-orientated – though many Pisces in the corporate world may hide this fact – we will deal with this aspect in greater detail, for otherwise it is difficult to understand the true Pisces personality.
There are four basic attitudes of the spirit. One is outright scepticism – the attitude of secular humanists. The second is an intellectual or emotional belief, where one worships a far-distant God figure – the attitude of most modern church- going people. The third is not only belief but direct personal spiritual experience – this is the attitude of some ‘born-again’ religious people. The fourth is actual unity with the divinity, an intermingling with the spiritual world – this is the attitude of yoga. This fourth attitude is the deepest urge of a Pisces, and a Pisces is uniquely qualified to pursue and perform this work.
Consciously or unconsciously, Pisces seek this union with the spiritual world. The belief in a greater reality makes Pisces very tolerant and understanding of others – perhaps even too tolerant. There are instances in their lives when they should say ‘enough is enough’ and be ready to defend their position and put up a fight. However, because of their qualities it takes a good deal of doing to get them into that frame of mind.
Pisces basically want and aspire to be ‘saints’. They do so in their own way and according to their own rules. Others should not try to impose their concept of saintliness on a Pisces, because he or she always tries to find it for him- or herself.

About Pisces
The symbol of the twin fish swimming in continuous circles in the heavens stands for the eternity of life. In Hindu mysticism, duality is the essence of progress. By constantly dying and being reborn, the human ego at last reaches a state where there is neither life nor death, only eternal consciousness.
The material and the spiritual are forever engaged in a conflict that eventually leads to a point where both are dissolved into their primary elements and are one and the same. Because Pisces stand for those opposites, in no other zodiac sign are the mysterious workings of universal law more evident.
As such Pisces persons, born between February 20 and March 20, are personalities who sense conflict in themselves. They are forever fascinated by spiritual concepts while at the same time having to cope with their material situation. The one is their joy, the other, their drudgery. Pisces persons, therefore, tend to be dreamers, withdrawn and alienated.
Practicality and physical reality are things they do not relate well to. They are sensitive persons who can perceive the situation of other people better than those people themselves. Because of their perceptiveness, Pisces persons possess an understanding that surpasses that of any other zodiac sign. Because they easily comprehend others, Pisces people are usually persons who are well-loved by their many friends and associates. It is only their deep spirituality that prevents them from taking advantage of their position to wield great power.
But what for since power has little significance for one who admires gentleness and creativity. Pisces people most often turn to the arts for comfort on a planet that they cannot call their own. They feel more at home in the transcendental existence of the finer consciousness. However, this affinity of Pisces persons for what is unseen can predispose them to using drugs and alcohol without the proper guidance.
Pisces Personality Traits

Pisces in Love
It is not surprising that someone as ‘otherworldly’ as the Pisces would like a partner who is practical and down to earth. Pisces prefer a partner who is on top of all the details of life, because they dislike details. Pisces seek this quality in both their romantic and professional partners. More than anything else this gives Pisces a feeling of being grounded, of being in touch with reality.
As expected, these kinds of relationships – though necessary – are sure to have many ups and downs. Misunderstandings will take place because the two attitudes are poles apart. If you are in love with a Pisces you will experience these fluctuations and will need a lot of patience to see things stabilize. Pisces are moody, intuitive, affectionate and difficult to get to know. Only time and the right attitude will yield Pisces’ deepest secrets. However, when in love with a Pisces you will find that riding the waves is worth it because they are good, sensitive people who need and like to give love and affection.
When in love, Pisces like to fantasize. For them fantasy is 90 per cent of the fun of a relationship. They tend to idealize their partner, which can be good and bad at the same time. It is bad in that it is difficult for anyone to live up to the high ideals their Pisces lover sets.

Pisces and Finance
Money is generally not that important to Pisces. Of course they need it as much as anyone else, and many of them attain great wealth. But money is not generally a primary objective. Doing good, feeling good about oneself, peace of mind, the relief of pain and suffering – these are the things that matter most to a Pisces.
Pisces earn money intuitively and instinctively. They follow their hunches rather than their logic. They tend to be generous and perhaps overly charitable. Almost any kind of misfortune is enough to move a Pisces to give. Although this is one of their greatest virtues, Pisces should be more careful with their finances.
They should try to be more choosy about the people to whom they lend money, so that they are not being taken advantage of. If they give money to charities they should follow it up to see that their contributions are put to good use. Even when Pisces are not rich, they still like to spend money on helping others. In this case they should really be careful, however: they must learn to say no sometimes and help themselves first.
Perhaps the biggest financial stumbling block for the Pisces is general passivity – a laissez faire attitude. In general Pisces like to go with the flow of events. When it comes to financial matters, especially, they need to be more aggressive. They need to make things happen, to create their own wealth. A passive attitude will only cause loss and missed opportunity. Worrying about financial security will not provide that security. Pisces need to go after what they want tenaciously.

Pisces career and Public Image Characteristics
Pisces like to be perceived by the public as people of spiritual or material wealth, of generosity and philanthropy. They look up to big-hearted, philanthropic types. They admire people engaged in large-scale undertakings and eventually would like to head up these big enterprises themselves. In short, they like to be connected with big organizations that are doing things in a big way.
If Pisces are to realize their full career and professional potential they need to travel more, educate themselves more and learn more about the actual world. In other words, they need some of the unflagging optimism of the Sagittarius in order to reach the top.
Because of all their caring and generous characteristics, Pisces often choose professions through which they can help and touch the lives of other people. That is why many Pisces become doctors, nurses, social workers or teachers. Sometimes it takes a while before Pisces realize what they really want to do in their professional lives, but once they find a career that lets them manifest their interests and virtues they will excel at it.

Life of Pisces
In their family and domestic life Pisces have to resist the tendency to relate only by feelings and moods. It is unrealistic to expect that your partner and other family members will be as intuitive as you are. There is a need for more verbal communication between a Pisces and his or her family. A cool, unemotional exchange of ideas and opinions will benefit everyone.
Some Pisces tend to like mobility and moving around. For them too much stability feels like a restriction on their freedom. They hate to be locked in one location for ever.
The Sign of Gemini sits on Pisces’ 4th Solar House (of Home and Family) cusp. This shows that the Pisces likes and needs a home environment that promotes intellectual and mental interests. They tend to treat their neighbours as family – or extended family. Some Pisces can have a dual attitude towards the home and family – on the one hand they like the emotional support of the family, but on the other they dislike the obligations, restrictions and duties involved with it. For Pisces, finding a balance is the key to a happy family life.
Pisces Sign Characteristics
If Pisces have one outstanding quality it is thier belief in the invisible, spiritual and psychic side of things. This side of things is as real to them as the hard earth beneath their feet- so real, in fact, that they will often ignore the visible, tangible aspects of reality in order to focus on the invisible and so- called intangible ones.
5 Pisces Characteristics
Pisces have some very personable characteristics. Let’s have a look.
1. Imaginative and Intuitive
The Pisces is extremely creative and has a terrific imagination. Pisces do a great job of thinking in abstract and they can come up with very innovative ideas.

2. Compassionate, Generous, Kind, and Sensitive
The Pisces is always ready and willing to help anyone who might be in need. Pisces always empathize with others and will try to be of assistance whenever they can. The Pisces is generous and emotional and people are attracted to them because they feel they can trust them. The kindness is exceptional and the Pisces always try to treat others in the manner they want to be treated. The caring and gentle nature of the Pisces makes them popular among friends and family. However, they also tend to develop extreme feelings because they are so sensitive.
3. Popular and Loyal
Pisces are popular with friends, family, and acquaintances – well actually they are popular with just about anyone they meet. That’s in part because of their compassionate and kind manner, but also because they are so loyal, fun, and interesting. The Pisces has a personality that is well liked and even envied by some. They have no problem making friends or being popular in the personal and work lives.
4. Idealistic
The idealistic views of the Pisces can sometimes make it more difficult for them to cope in a world that is far from idealistic. Pisces can find themselves struggling with what is going on around them especially as it often does not fit with their idealistic ideas
5. Weak-willed and Over Sensitive
The Pisces has a soft spot. In fact, many would call it being weak willed, as they just are not able to say no. Trouble is because they are weak willed and over sensitive their feelings can be hurt easily and other people’s issues can bother them, yet when they are drug into the issues of others they can’t say no, so it lands up being a big mess for them and stressful too, and then they get upset… and well around it goes.
