Being the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces people in astrology are known as half-body, half-sprit. What this means is that you people may always feel that you are never at home in the real world. Since you are the grandparents of the zodiac, many of you Pisces people (no matter if you are 6 or 60) are described as having old souls that have lived previous lives. Because you are also a water sign, most Pisces are extremely sensitive to the human emotions (their own and others) and have an eerie intuitive quality that can lead to involvement in the occult, ESP, and spiritualism. You are the ultimate giver or the zodiac because you can literally feel exactly what other are feeling and have the urge to help them. Although others appreciate your willingness to help, the Pisces lesson is to limit their need to help. Otherwise, you will give away the very strength and emotional security you need for yourself.           

                FITNESS: You more than other astrological signs need rest to keep up vitality and energy, which means that a good sleeping pattern is prescribed for any Pisces in our lives. Although I say that Pisces need their sleep, they also need to keep up with some form of exercise so to keep vitality high as well. Since they are the quintessential water sign, exercises involving water are great for the beautiful Pisces sprit. In other words, swimming and any other sport involving water would due for this astrological sign. Because of the fact that Pisces rule the feet, swimming would be a very safe bet as well to not break, sprain, or bruise the feet as much as other sports could.

                DIET: When it comes to this zodiac sign, I have one word that should be in your “diet vocabulary” and it is IRON.  Pisces is more prone than any other zodiac sign to have low iron counts and issues relating to this. Therefore, for you a diet that is high protein and iron would be a very wise choice. These include foods like lean beef, lamb, eggs yolks, oysters, kidneys, whole-grain cereals, barley, dried beans, spinach, onions, lettuce, raisins, strawberries, almonds, apples, oranges, and others that are along this line. In addition, for the protein portion of a proper Pisces diet, eating foods like cheese, fish and chicken, yogurt, and broiled meat would do wonders for their body. Sugars, fats, and caffeine should be a big no-no for this astrological sign.  Another big no-no for the Pisces person is an over indulgence in alcohol and drugs of any sort. You are more prone to addiction and the effects from these will age you and affect you so much faster than any other zodiac sign in astrology. So just do yourself a favor and avoid them at all costs Pisces, it could be the matter between a happy life and no life at all.

                SKIN CARE: As I have said above in the exercise portion, the sign of Pisces rule the feet. You have very well shaped feet and toes, but they are more prone to conditions than any other zodiac sign. This means athletes foot, dry and cracked skin, and to the extreme gout could even become a concern if not properly taken care of. It is said that Pisces people should take extra special care of their feet, so for this reason, using a foot cream is an essential to you. In addition, because of the addictive qualities of a Pisces and their body’s reaction to certain chemicals, going the organic and natural route for your foot cream choice is the right avenue to travel.  Ingredients like Neem Oil and Karanja Oil will work wonders in the medicinal realm of keeping your feet clean and non-irritated. Then adding a peppermint oil and/or eucalyptus oil will add great invinigrating smells as well as a calming and soothing property that can make a Pisces relax in an instant.  Finding an organic foot cream containing most or, preferably, all of these ingredients is something that this astrological sign should include in their daily skin care routine to ensure proper health.

                By following these simple steps to health, the Pisces person can be one of the most powerful and empathetic in the zodiac. Remembering to concentrate on you and your health first and others next will make you Pisces much more effective at doing what you feel the need to do.  Some of the loveliest people in astrology, Pisces are filled with compassion and understanding ; so for all of us of different signs who may have a Pisces in our lives, treat them well and help them help themselves. They will pay you back in one of the most sincere and meaning full relationships (whether love, friendship, or family) of your life.

The Energy Cycle of Life

Astrological signs are a beautiful way to represent the changing, cyclical patterns of energy that we all feel as we go through life. Each segment of our life—whether it’s a day, a week, a month, or a year—and our life as a whole, has a beginning, a middle, and an end.

These time periods have very different energy qualities. At 7:00 a.m. we feel full of energy and ready to begin our day. By 10:00 p.m. we look forward to restful sleep to recharge our energy. Monday feels very different from Wednesday and Sunday, doesn’t it? In spring we come out of our hibernation and feel infused with energy. By November in the Northern Hemisphere we look forward to curling up by the fire with a hot cup of tea and a good book as we enter a slower, more contemplative period.

Each phase of the life cycle has its own qualities that can be enhanced by understanding the energy pattern of that period. The astrological signs will teach you how to maximize your potential throughout the year and in each phase of your life.

The Twelve Astrological Signs

There are 12 astrological signs, named for constellations. On a horoscope they are arranged around the outer ring of the chart. The planets are on the turning zodiac ring inside the ring of signs. As that ring turns, the planets move through each of the astrological signs in the course of one year. The 12 signs are:

1. Aries

2. Taurus

3. Gemini

4. Cancer

5. Leo

6. Virgo

7. Libra

8. Scorpio

9. Sagittarius

10. Capricorn

11. Aquarius

12. Pisces

The Signs as the Theater of Life

As you look up at the sky at night, you can imagine the planets as actors on a stage. In a sense, the astrological signs are the “stage” where the planets act out their roles. Each stage has its own particular energy pattern that influences the planets as actors. As a planet enters a sign, it comes under the influence of the energy pattern of that sign.

So we might say that “Mars is in Leo now,” which means that Mars is now being influenced by the energy pattern of the sign of Leo. When Mars has finished its role in Leo it will move on to its next stage, Virgo, where things will be quite different for Mars! So Mars always retains its own qualities, but those are modified according to the sign that Mars is in.

The Character & Energy Patterns of the Signs

The signs get their characteristics from where they fall in the yearly cycle of one revolution of the zodiac, which represents one revolution of the Earth around the Sun. During that year, all life on Earth goes through one cycle of evolution.

If you live in a place that has four seasons, you can strongly sense that your life has an ebb and flow related to the seasons. You may be acutely aware of changes in your energy, emotions, sleep patterns, and ambitions as the seasons change. The astrological signs represent that cycle of evolution of energy.

The energy patterns of the signs almost constitute a personality type, a typical mode of expression of the sign. For example, Aries, because it is the first sign of the zodiac and is associated with spring, symbolizes new energy, new beginnings, new growth, expansion of all creation. Those energy qualities are correlated with personal qualities such as courage, extroversion, aggression, and so on. It is not hard to see why Aries is called “the warrior,” and how an astrological sign can take on human personality characteristics.

The Dates of the Signs

Viewed from the Earth, the Sun appears to change its position in the sky as it moves through the year (actually it’s the Earth that tilts on its axis). The Sun moves into each constellation on a specific date. So when we say that the dates for Aries are March 21 to April 20, we mean that the Sun appears in Aries on those dates.

The Genders & Elements of Signs

Each sign is considered either masculine or feminine and is associated with one of the four elements, Earth, Air, Fire, or Water. As you might already have guessed, Aries, for example, is a masculine fire sign.

Your Birth Sign

At the moment of your birth—the most important day of your life—you come into the world under the influence of the energy of that specific moment generated by the heavenly bodies, how they stand in relation to each other, and the astrological sign of your birth date. You are infused with those energies and will be influenced by them throughout your lifetime. This is not at all surprising, given that you are an energy being! All of these energy relationships and their meaning are revealed by your horoscope.

When you are born you are like a seed that contains all the information and potential that will make it grow into a specific plant. Your horoscope is a chart of the beginning of your life (or of an event later in life). Like a seed, it contains information about the energy pattern that makes you who you are and points to your recurring life themes.

Understanding thyself

Learning about your sign can help you understand the themes that you experience in your personality, challenges and successes, relationships, health, and goals and dreams. Seeing those patterns will help you find ways to get around your challenges and work with your best qualities.
