What are some problems you, as a Pisces, commonly face?

c: I’d appreciate some answers— whether by a reply to this post, or if you send an ask. 

I’d like to do a new thing called “Pisces Problems” where I offer possible solutions to issues common for us Pisces. So, if you have something to contribute, I’d appreciate it a ton! <3

Tips for Pisces

thezodiaczone:

  • Believe in yourself.
  • As your imagination inspires you, create, create, create.
  • When you’re distracted or daydreaming, channel this into new projects.
  • Now and then pinch yourself so you know you’re a real person.
  • Learn to have as much compassion for yourself as you do for others.
  • Don’t escape into drugs or alcohol—spiral up, not down.
  • Consider the advice of the fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) you meet.

I'm definitely one of the Pisces that are in the alcoholism area. I always feel so awkward in party situations, so I grab drinks to make myself feel more comfortable. It's bad, I know, but sometimes I cannot help myself. I just can't find someone to talk to unless I have a buzz or something. I normally just stand in the background, if I'm not drinking. It's so frustrating because I really don't want to drink all that much. :/

:c I’m sure you’d find you don’t need alcohol to enable your social skills. I myself am unfamiliar with drinking, but I can understand if it gives you the illusion of confidence. If you honestly don’t want to drink all that much, why not try to find that confidence within yourself? It’s obviously not that easy, I know, but if you continuously reach for alcohol, you’ll never learn to socialize “healthily.” You could also try to avoid parties, even though that doesn’t really address the issue. ;; Personally, I think I have that “addict” personality, so I’ve made sure to never drink so I don’t develop an addiction.

Secret Pisces

thezodiaczone:

Anyone who has strong Piscean influences is a person who has perhaps the most extreme choices of any zodiac sign. Pisces can accept the challenges of life and rise to the top, or can give in to the easy way of oblivion and sink to the bottom. This choice is symbolized by the two fishes.

To help him or her swim to the top, the Pisces must find peace through beauty, music, and harmony.

The Pisces needs work which will enable him or her to achieve this. More than any other sign, Pisces has many talents which may be used to develop their character. Many work hard to improve the lot of humanity. Others bring their talents to film and entertainment, enlivening the lives of thousands.

Pisces needs to turn his/her private, mystical dream world of love and compassion into a reality. The only other option for a Pisces is a life of illusion and, ultimately, a sense of failure.

I'm a Libra girl chasing after a Pisces girl who lives across the country from me. How do I tell her I want a committed relationship, and how do we deal with the distance if she accepts?

This is a bit of a tough one. Simply, I don’t know the details of your current relationship. Are you close, as it is? Or, do you seem to have more of a crush and the Pisces is unaware of your feelings? Does the Pisces seem to have feelings for you? 

See, the thing is, if you confront a Pisces upfront with your feelings, there’s a strong likelihood they’ll flee from you. Forgive the horrible analogy: but fish are very slippery; you can’t really catch them in your hands with brute force. Even if the Pisces does have a crush on you, sudden confrontation might cause them to flee. In fact, the aspect of distance might be beneficial to you— perhaps confessing your feelings will make it easier on the Pisces. They might not feel as pressured, as they would face to face. 

I would take it slowly if you don’t think the Pisces has strong feelings for you currently. Build it up first, and then confess. Do it slowly, so as not to startle them and scare them off. 

As far as distance goes, just try and keep communication alive and strong.

I'm not sure if this is just me or a Pisces thing or whatever, but I get really bothered with people with egos, people who feel they're too good for others. I'd rather not be around them. I mean, confidence is good and I admire that, but I like it much more when someone isn't too annoying or loud, more genuine and humble and treats everyone the same. I just feel like so many people have big egos and wants attention :(

/was this meant to be submitted to be a confession? 

Personally? I do sympathize with you on the ego thing. I mean, for me, it’s more about disliking when people have a very “know-it-all” attitude, and they resist to new knowledge. And though that’s not really what you mentioned, maybe it can relate to overconfidence? And, well, I’d be hesitant to say it’s a “Pisces thing." 

Perhaps, as a Pisces— who are usually quite humble— people come across as having large egos because, well, their ego is simply a lot larger than yours? I mean, if you could measure such a thing (1-10)… If your ego was a 4, but the average ego is 6… It would be natural to feel as though "so many people” have big egos. To your 4, a 6 would seem large. c:
Am I making sense? haha.

Hi, I am currently in Love [to the tip of my fingers] with a Scorpio and I just want to be functional and not just seat and melt and only think about him anymore... Any insights? [I am a Pisces and he is currently so far away from me, physically.] Thank you.

If the physical distance between you two has caused you to become dysfunctional, I worry that you revolve yourself too much around the Scorpio and your love for him? Therefore, I would suggest working to change your lifestyle to aim towards more present, tangible things. Like yourself? I mean, it doesn’t do much good to fixate on aspects that only cause you grief. Involve yourself in things that bring you happiness; if you enjoy quality time with friends, hang out with a close friend. Of course, this isn’t to say to rid the Scorpio of your life, or anything. Communication is huge in relationships, especially when there’s physical distance between you. Many people use Skype to stay in contact, or other online messaging. Sadness, I think, is unavoidable… Just, don’t let your love turn into something that brings you constant grief.

So my Venus is in Aries and the guy I like Venus is in Libra, Can this work out?

Sure! c:

I'm an Aquarius/Pisces cusp (Feb 20) and I've been searching around and it says that Pisces/Gemini are quite incompatible, yet, it's the opposite for an Aqaurius/Gemini? So, I was just wondering (in your opinion) what do you do when you're a cusp or how do you go about it? (I have traits of both Aq & Pis) It's so confusing and they both contradict each other. If it helps my Venus is an Aquarius?

Haha, as I was reading this the first bit of your message, thing I was going to say was “Look at your Venus!” But then, you conclude with telling me your Venus is in Aquarius. Now, I personally suggest looking up the exact degree of your sun. Before you panic, I’ll explain exactly what I mean and how to do that! See, your sun sign is where the sun is positioned upon your birth. So, even though your an Aquarius/Pisces cusp, the actual degrees for the cusp are “Approximately 26° Aquarius - 4°Pisces” So, I dunno, say you’re approximately 2° Pisces. Your sun would technically be in Pisces. You could look up the degree by looking up your birth chart. 

However. Since your Venus is in Aquarius, I’m going to bet that you might just happen to get along with air signs (Gemini, Aquarius, Libra). c: It’s a tricky thing being born on the cusp like that, trying to look up compatibility. It might just be easier to do compatibility that compares individual birthdays, like this one.

I recently read that Pisces are sexually delicate and can be almost asexual in nature. Is that true?

Well, I’m not too sure what you mean by “sexually delicate.” And, honestly, when it comes to Pisces, I’m a little ambivalent on their sexual nature! It’s like, on one hand, Pisces are said to “live and breathe romance,” so you’d think that many of us would be inclined to be quite sexual. And, truthfully, I have read much that Pisces are eager to sexually please their partner. However, I have met many Pisces who are quite asexual in nature.

Now, I’m going to go off on a weird sort of tangent, and feel absolutely free to disagree with me. I’m just sort of playing around with thoughts, here. Many people argue that “asexual behavior” stems from a disliking of the self. Though I certainly don’t think this is true for all asexuals, I can’t help but wonder if there’s something to be said for this with Pisces. Pisces do tend to suffer from low self-esteem. Secondly, I do think Pisces is quite fragile in this area; I mean, we tend to associate sexual behavior as something quite intimate. So I wonder if because of the way many Pisces view sexual behavior, and approach it as something “beautiful,” if maybe there’s likewise a sense of caution. Is that caution what is referred to when you say “sexually delicate”? I’m not sure. But with this caution, and the hypersensitive nature of Pisces, I can’t help but wonder if a Pisces might abstain from sexual behavior… thus giving the illusion of appearing asexual to others? When, in reality, if the Pisces simply warms up and forms a bond with a person, they’ll be more willing to show their sexual nature.

Again, I’m really just sort of toying around with my thoughts here. Feel absolutely free to disregard them, disagree with me, etc. 

But personally? I think Pisces tend to either fall to extremes in the spectrum of sexuality. Many can be rather flirtatious and sexual, I think; whereas others can portray a more asexual preference.

Pisces Confession:

Alright, bear with me, fellow Pisces. I think I have figured out what our superpower would be. It would be the ability to create illusions. To create worlds, fantasies, dreams. To create anything, really. But these are all simply illusions. Pisces long to live in their fantasies, in their illusions, rather than in reality. Our greatest weakness, as super heroes, would be our escapism. We would get too caught up in the illusion, and eventually fall victim to our own fantasies, lost forever in the illusions we create for ourselves.

I keep hearing how romantic Pisces are, I've never really felt like the romantic type. I'm a typical Pisces in every other way except the romance part.

I think I wrote up a post before about “romance” with Pisces where I addressed something similar to this. Being a romantic isn’t just about being fond of romance, or the “hopeless romantic” sort, which is where most people go when they hear the word “romantic." 

Consider this: Romantic "of, characterized by, or suggestive of an idealized view of reality: a romantic attitude toward the past." I want to emphasize that romantics have an idealized view of reality. And because you say you’re a typical Pisces in every other way except the "romance part"— I ask you to think about the other aspects of Piscean nature. Pisces are fond of escapism, because we hate reality. We see things in a rose-colored lens, which is very much idealistic.

c: So, really, being a romantic isn’t just about being lovey-dovey. There are different ways a Pisces can embody and portray this aspect, I think.

Do you know of any place where we can get a full birth chart done professionally?

Professionally? Um, no. I know in my area there are a lot of hole-in-the-wall places that offer palm readings, and things of that sort. But personally, I think that’s kind of a gamble. I know some people offer their services at county fairs, but that’s not “professional.” You might consider looking up online, and ordering a chart? There are professional charts you can order, I believe.

#Pisces #Pisces Confession

Time for me to post a confession of my own: I’ve been kind of … ignoring the questions about my personal interpretations of “sun+moon+rising signs.” I mean, I’m sure some of you have noticed that the questions I’ve been answering are a little… selective. Honestly, part of it is because of how long those replies tend to be, and how much effort I generally put into each reply. I haven’t felt much like replying to them, and I don’t want to force myself to do it— I mean, that would only result in a sloppy reply. I’m sure you guys want dedicated responses, right? :C Even if it means waiting for my lazy, depressed self to finally come around? Ha ha ha… Also, it gets really monotonous replying to the same types of questions. So, answering to different types of questions offers a bit of variety! I hope? 

I’ll kick myself into gear soon enough. But for now, I’m truly sorry for my incompetence.

Honestly, I would love to be loved - but i can never seen to trust anyone ‘enough’ since i know that i am the type to give more than i take.

Because of that, i usually say stuff like “i don’t need to be loved”/”I’m fine being by myself” & it makes me like a total hypocrite.

Pisces Confession:

I remember reading an insult about Pisces expecting others to open up but keeping reserved and how it wasn’t fair. I’m a Pisces. What isn’t exclusive to my sun-sign is wanting people in life. But coincidentally being a Pisces and not wanting anyone in my life happens to be. I could have lived alone. But since people insisted on being in my life (without my permission), then, I think it’s fair to assume they’ll be making all the first moves. 

Maybe that person met Pisces’ like myself: they just happened to have that same belief and life style.

To the Pisces asking about seeking parties- I personally am very socially awkward and I dont much like being in crowds, but I also find myself not being able to resist the atmosphere of a party. I attribute it to our intense imaginations, we chat for a bit then get lost in our own heads for going over the conversation and teaching ourselves how to talk to others. Its hard to describe I find it easier to think in my own world when im surrounded by active people

:u Ah, I think I kind of understand what you’re speaking to. Thank you for contributing with this. c:

Is it pretty common for Pisces not to be party seekers? I'm not particularly fascinated by the idea of partying. And I mean the immediate conception of a college party - one with heavy drinking, promiscuity, etc. I feel so awkward in those situations! I'm always the one staying sober and trying to make small talk.

Well, I suppose it depends. Many Pisces are indeed introverted, and by rule of thumb wouldn’t be too interested in parties. However, Pisces can be prone to alcoholism and escapism, and I think parties can appeal to that type of desire. 

… Does that answer your question?

I'm a Gemini girl and I've been interested in a Pisces boy for quite some time now. The problem is that we're both very shy and even though I find him fascinating, I can't take the initiative to ask him to hang out. Do you think that in this situation I should take a risk and ask him anyway? Or should I wait for him to ask me? Also, is it true that Pisces need a lot of space in order to reciprocate thoughts?

I definitely think you should take some initiative. Personally, I don’t see why you ought to wait for him to ask you. I mean, why risk it? :c If you two are both really shy, don’t rely on someone else to make the move. Pisces generally are quite passive about taking initiative, also. && Yes, many Pisces do need a lot of space on their own. I mean, many of us desire closeness! But, we really do need time on our own to be with our thoughts.

In what way do you not agree with the compatibility post? Which ones would take away and add Xs?

Oh, it’s not so much a matter of taking and adding the “X"s. I’m personally not a fan of finite charts, especially when it comes to compatibility. I mean, there’s really so much to consider that you can’t put into a chart.

I just recently became involved with a Scorpio guy (I'm a Pisces girl). Everything about him and the way he treats me is absolutely perfect, but he get sort of distant sometimes. I know this is normal for a Scorpio and all, but we started out as just a thing and he said he didn't want a relationship and now it's to the point where we might as well be boyfriend and girlfriend but, like I said, he's distant every now and then. How can I make sure he falls for me?

Disclaimer? I’m really naive when it comes to relationships? 

But, um, if you’re at “the point where [you] might as well be boyfriend and girlfriend,” … are you certain he hasn’t already fallen for you? Many people are distant, especially introverts. Similar to how a Pisces needs time on their own to reflect, you know? Yes, it’s true Scorpios are heavily guarded, armored individuals, who like to appear mysterious. They try to be emotionally distant. 

I’m kind of curious to know why you think he hasn’t fallen for you. Is it because you haven’t labeled it as a relationship? Scorpios are normally hesitant because they give it their all. They’re an “all or nothing” type. So, if you can solidify the point that you’ll be loyal and committed, he might be more willing to give it his all.

For the Long Distance anon... I am currently in one (with a scorpio :] ), and I have to say I never thought I would be able to do it. I crave affection and romance and being near my boyfriend. But if you have faith, trust and love it can work! It will be hard, I'm not going to lie to you. If possible, make plans to visit each other once a month or so, keep up with each other on skype or texts, just remember how much you love each other and think about the day when you will be together again. :]

Thank you for this. <3

actually, the stomach pains and procrastination in reality of the conscious mind for a pisces is common. i forget to eat sometimes and boom, there goes my anxiety. Recently, i went to a hollistic healer that guided me to nutrition shakes and supplements to help me increase my appetite. Pisces aren't "prone" to depression its just stages of our life pisces go through with their own chakras. I suggest Slippery Elm to help the lining of your stomach and St. johns wort for the blues.

Whoops, should’ve posted this sooner. :u

So I lived in a room with three other girls and their signs were Aquarius, Libra, and Sagittarius. I didn't click with them, I am a Pisces. I want to know why astrology wise! Thank you! :)

Well, speaking to astrology, the first thing that catches my attention is that the three of them are masculine signs, and you’re a feminine sign. Really, this would sort of lead you to be the most introverted one of the group, whereas the three of those signs have extroverted tendencies. The way masculine signs approach daily things are therefore quite different than feminine signs. 

But, you tell me. <3 Pisces can generally get along well with most signs. I’m sure you have a hunch as to what wasn’t working out? 

Jul 7, 2012
hi. absolutely love your blog!! i'm just wondering about two march 20ths. could that work? thanks love :)

Thank you! <3

& Why not? c: I mean, if you’re curious for a more in-depth compatibility for two people born on March 20th, I’d look at signs like the Venus. Even though you both are Pisces-Aries cusps, you two could have different Venus signs which would make you on the less compatible side. But since you both have the same sun sign? c: Your sun signs are indeed compatible.

Pisces sun, Scorpio moon, Sagg rising. I waver between "staying true to myself" by helping others vs. living the Sagg gypsy life. It's a constant battle. Any advice?

Okay, so, I feel silly— but I’m a little confused? If you’re “staying true to yourself” by helping others, you wouldn’t feel conflicted between that and the “gypsy life” (as you said). I think you could easily find a happy medium between the two. I do wonder if what you’re “actually” referring to is a problem of you, putting others needs first (to a fault), and not living your life the way you really want as a result? I don’t know? This question to me seems so… backwards. :c Because, to me, a person who is truly “being true to themselves” wouldn’t feel conflicted between two different lifestyles.

Do you know how Pisces deal with long distance relationships? Do you know how they should go about dealing with them? Someone who I love very much is away from me for a while, and when they come back we're going to have to leave each other again. Sadface. It's very hard for me...

I would be inclined to think most Pisces wouldn’t fair well in a long distance relationship. Many Pisces wish to “become one” with their partner, and that type of unity would be difficult to achieve in a long distance relationship. I imagine long distance relationships would be unsatisfying to a Pisces. I also would think it could lead them to become very depressed, as romance is very important to Pisces.

I suppose maybe surrounding yourself with loved ones might be a good way to cope. Spend time with friends, occupy yourself with hobbies. :c But then I know you could be prone to thinking, “I wish so-and-so was here to enjoy this with me,” so I think perhaps it’s really about doing things you enjoy, and letting yourself be happy on your own. Don’t bring yourself down because you can’t share the moments together, you know?

Have fun at AX& hope you're better by then! I always wanted to go but tix are expensive. Will you be cospaying? Anyhoos, I came to ask if its a Pisces thing to be sick when depressed? Sometimes I get stomache aches or I feel anxiety when I'm feeling negative.

Ah, yes, c: I’m feeling much better now. Well, physically, at least. Thank you. c:

Hahaha, who said anything about buying tickets? <3 ohbutno. I normally purchase a four day ticket in advance, when they first come out at around half price. However, this year I honestly couldn’t afford it, so I’m sort of just freeloading and drifting around the convention center. Most people I know think I’m crazy for buying a ticket every year. So. ;; && No, :c I’m not cosplaying this year. Again, I can’t afford it.

OH BUT ASTROLOGY.

WELL.

Depression does weaken the immune system. I mean, I’m of course speaking to a more chronic depression. People who suffer from a constant depression often become sick easily and frequently. And, personally, I do believe that when a person has a depressed state, this does affect the entire body. I mean, let’s consider this definition: “reduce the level or strength of activity in [something]." Why not the immune system? Regardless, anxiety and stomach aches are very much correlated. 

I don’t think this is necessarily a "Pisces thing,” even though Pisces are prone to depression.
