Many astrologers associate Pisces with intuition, art, poetry, mysticism,
music, and a passive, receptive quality that inclines it to sometimes be
dominated by more forceful and aggressive personalities. In my obser-
vations, I have not found Pisces to be as “spacey” as is often attributed
to it, nor have I found Pisces to be extremely passive, although there is
something sensitive and non-aggressive about the Piscean nature.It appears to me that Pisces seems to approach any subject with a sensi-
tive holistic approach rather than with a singular, well-defined point of
view. Pisces sees art in biology and chemistry, and sees science in art.
Pisces seems to see past categories and stereotypes and experiences life
more honestly and directly, without filtering information through the
powerful mental constructs that we unconsciously routinely use in our
everyday lives. Pisces does not thrive in our modern day school systems
that focus on performance, memorization and getting the “right”
answer. (Courtesy of Cosmic Patterns [http://cosmic.patterns.com] and

Many specialized report programs have been developed that offer useful sup-
plements to the generic delineations of general reports. The following sun-sign inter-
pretation has been drawn from a program written by Gloria Star (originally part of her
book, Astrology: Woman to Woman) that generates a specialized report for women:
With your Sun in Pisces, your ego dances most freely in the realm of
imagination. Your compassion and sensitivity can stimulate your desire
to give of yourself for the betterment of life. You may be quite respon-
sive to the energy of your surroundings, and can be tempted,
chameleon-like, to adapt to the needs and demands around you instead
of determining what you really want, and the manner in which you
want to project who you really are.
Your own sense of identity and strength may allude you, especially if
you feel confused about your place in the world. The influence of your
Pisces Sun may stimulate marvelous dreams about what life could be,
but you may not fully realize those dreams unless you can find a way to
create positive personal boundaries. This is first accomplished by
becoming acquainted with who you are, especially on an inner level.
You may feel a special fascination with men, and may believe that they
have more influence and power than you. It’s tempting for you to pro-
ject the qualities of power and control onto the men in your life rather
than taking the risk of standing up for yourself and your needs. It’s also
possible that you will unconsciously seek out men who are wounded
and need your compassionate support. In truth you have an exception-
al strength through your resilience and adaptability. You can flex and
bend with the changes happening around you and within you, and
emerge quite nicely, thank you! However, in order to fully own and
express your will, you may have to struggle with the feelings and sensi-
bilities which make you vulnerable to being victimized by those whoTHEASTROLOGYBOOK [529]
