PISCIAN SWIM


The sun is now in that gentle and undefined sign of Pisces. However, that apparent gentle sensitivity hides the potential of quite a strong personality once it has been awakened to what it wants from life.




Traditionally the glyph for Pisces of two fishes swimming in opposite directions symbolised the conflict between spirit and soul. This could also be interpreted as conflict between soul and personality; or what is the true self as against the superficial habit patterns that have been adopted. You know, that little inner voice of consciousness that we so often ignore in order to let the senses have their own way – that extra chocolate, that extra glass of wine. Most Pisceans need a stronger person to guide them, although they in their turn can also be carries of advice and guidance once they have found the energy to train themselves.

“Be warned and understand truly that two fishes are swimming in our sea”, says Lambspring.

Pisces like to dream; they are people very happy with the abstract. Some like to bring those dreams into existence; some can do this, some just can’t seem to get it together.

Like the former sign of Aquarius, Pisces too has two planets associated with it. They are Jupiter and Neptune. This would indicate that Pisces shares a complexity with Scorpio and Aquarius, albeit of a different type. A Piscean can be found serving drinks at the bar [or on the other side of the bar drinking them]; or expounding on a mathematical formula in the lecture theatre; or painting a marvellous sunset; or dancing and singing to their hearts content; or selflessly serving the poor of mind or body. Piscean capabilities are endless and as varied as the life in the sea with which they have such great affinity. There is another ‘sea’ though, that one in the sky that we call space; the sea above, which probably has as many inhabitants as the sea ‘below’ if we but had the senses to observe them.

So easily can the Piscean understand the ‘Three Graces’ if they wish to, that ‘Pagan Mysteries in the Renaissance’ by E.A. Wind, and all about art, music and mythology, is bound to appeal to the reading Piscean. Pagan Mysteries In The Renaissance
