Whoever said, "I don't want to be a
millionaire-I just want to live like one," was truly reflecting the
Piscean philosophy. The typical Neptune heart
is free of greed. There's a lack of intensity, almost a carelessness about
tomorrow. There's also an intuitive knowledge of yesterday and a gentle
tolerance of today. It's never easy for either real or human fish to struggle
and fight their way upstream. But challenges are what these people prefer.
You'll be impressed with the Piscean charm
of manner and lazy good nature. He's even more indifferent to insults,
recriminations and other people's bristling opinions. He does have a temper.
When he's finally aroused, he can be bitingly sarcastic, with a clever, caustic
tongue. Neptunians can lash their tails angrily and spill forth a torrent of
nervous irritability, but the typical Pisces will normally take the path of
least resistance, and the cool waters of Neptune
continually wash away his anger.
When you meet Pisces people, look first at
their feet. They'll be quite noticeably small and dainty (including the men's),
or else they'll be huge and spread out like a tired washerwoman's. The Pisces
hands will also be tiny, fragile, and exquisitely formed-or else big ham bones
that look as though they belong behind a plow. The skin is silky soft; the hair
is fine, often wavy, and usually light. Pisces eyes are liquid, heavy-lidded, and
full of strange lights. Frequently, but not always, they're slightly
protruding, bulbous and extremely compelling. Some Piscean eyes are simply
beautiful. There's no other word to describe them. The features are elastic and
mobile, and you'll usually find more dimples than wrinkles. Few Pisceans are
tall; Neptune bodies are sometimes awkwardly
built, but with their extraordinary grace, it's seldom discernible.
The two fish in reversed directions
symbolize the choice given Pisces.
Pisces must learn that he is to serve mankind in some way, and eschew
worldly possessions. Although Pisceans shrink from competition, the strong pull
of Neptune sends many of them, even the shy
ones, toward the bright footlights, where they can use their fabulous powers of
interpretation to project myriad emotions.
His judgment is as fair and detached as
that of Libra, and his love of pleasure is also purely Libran. Pisces people
have the crazy sense of fun of Cancer, as well as both the Cancerian sympathy
and crabbiness. They're sometimes full of the Sagittarian outspoken frankness
and generosity, as fun-loving and outgoing as Leo, yet as devoted to duty as
Capricorn, and often just as envious of social distinction. There may also be a
smattering of the saturnine melancholy. Perhaps more than just a smattering.
The fish can be as moody as a Moon child and as happy as a lion. He likes to
tease and analyze in Aquarian fashion. He's often overflowing with Aries
idealism and enthusiasm, but usually without the Mars drive. A Pisces person
can zip around with Gemini quickness, talk just as fast and think just as
cleverly. He can also be as lazy and peaceful as Taurus. He has the clever wit
of Mercury and the soft grace of Venus, and he combines it with the mystic
penetration of Scorpio, without the Scorpio's ruthlessness.
Pisces people seem to have slow
metabolisms, which is why they often wake up sleepy-eyed and listless. Poor
eating habits can bring troubles with liver and intestinal functions and
digestive troubles. Accidents to, or some abnormalities of the feet, hands or
hips are common, also colds, flu and pneumonia. The lungs are not strong, and
weak toes and ankles may result from March births. The fish seem to have fallen
arches and metatarsal injuries or superbly strong and supple feet. There's no
in between. They have a hidden inner resistance, however, and one of the
challenges of Neptune is to discover this
latent strength and call on it. Pisceans can literally hypnotize themselves
into or out of anything they choose-including fear of cats, mice, heights, subways,
elevators and people.
Humor is one of their secret weapons.
Sometimes the fun is warm and harmless, sometimes it's cold and merciless; but
it's always a cover for another emotion the fish wants to hide, seldom
spontaneous of itself. Pisces wears his laughs as a mask, and they disguise him
well. They are friendly, helpful and non-judgmental.
Pisces is represented, not by iron or
mercury or gold o lead, but by the vibrations of the indefinable, artificial
metals-again, an echo of the unreal and the illusionary He sees his reflection
in three dimensions in the violet amethyst and the clear emerald; and his natal
flowers an the water lily and the lotus. Their blossoms are pink and white and
delicate, but their stems and leaves are made of strong fibers, tough and
indestructible, unless they're ton up by the roots. Few can follow Pisces and
probe the aquamarine nature, whether he swims downstream to oblivion, just
another lashing speck in the large, moving school of fish-or fights his way
upstream to conquer the swift current and find serenity in pure waters. He is
stronger than he thinks and wiser than he knows, but Neptune
guards this secret until he discovers it for himself.
