Pisces 19th Feb - 19th March

Gentle, watery Pisces is probably the most sensitive of all the 12 signs. With psychic and spiritual proclivities, they intuitively know what others are thinking and often need periods of seclusion or time out on their own to re-charge the batteries. Characteristically, Pisces are very kind, caring and compassionate people who instinctively put the needs of others before their own, due to their selfless natures. They like to help people and are especially fond of animals, but they can be rather impressionable or a sucker for a sob story because they always try to see the best in everyone. Romantic, loving and emotional people, Pisces can be a bit gushy but can also make a total stranger feel like their best friend.

Ruled by the fantasy planet Neptune, Pisces often live in their own little dream world, longing to escape from the harsh realities of this life. This can make them seem rather vague, impractical or lacking in direction and the practical, mundane concerns of life often get neglected. Pisces know no boundaries or structures, so their lives can often seem chaotic or disorganised and they are a bit of a scatterbrain.

There is an air of mystery and elusiveness about many Pisceans and they are attracted to everything that is glamorous or glitters with gold. Playful and imaginative too, some artistic or musical talent is prevalent and allows them to escape into their world of make believe. Pisces the fish tends to go with the flow and prefer to take the easy option, however alcohol and drugs can also offer a recreational haven for some.
