We are now in the month of Pisces. This is a month to truly grab onto happiness, as the month of Pisces is also known as the Month of Joy. Pisces is a water sign, which signifies mercy. Pisces is also represented by the planet Jupiter, which brings about justice and equilibrium. It is the month surrounded by the positive energy of water and protected by the abundance and good fortune of Jupiter.

What do we know about Pisceans? We know that our Piscean friends are friendly, submissive, altruistic, easygoing and love to share. Pisceans are very popular because of their compassionate, caring and gentle nature. Pisceans are also great listeners, and this is why many people love to trust and confide in them. By leaning on Pisceans for support, you are assured to always find comfort.

Pisces is the twelfth and last month of the zodiac, and is responsible for all the other signs of the zodiac. Pisces is known as the spinal cord of the zodiac, therefore holding the entire zodiac together. This month, we should know and understand that we are responsible for each other, and it is each individual’s job to help each other.

We know our Piscean friends to be more readily concerned with the problems of others rather than their own. So, this is a really great month to really pay attention to ourselves and our own problems.

We know our Piscean friends to withdraw and become aloof, drifters or otherworldly; this is because Pisceans live in a constant dream state. We can take advantage of this month by taking on our own dream world (dreaming and visualizing what we truly want in our lives). Or, we can use the energies of this otherworldly nature to learn to focus, especially on one project at a time (since we know that Pisceans tend to have more than one occupation, goal and talent).

Any of us that have Piscean friends know that Pisces tend to live by instincts, and are more emotional than rational. Ok, so we can use the energies of this month to gain control of our up and down emotions, and our mental state of being- by becoming balanced. Pisces represents the power of “balanced” waters.

The negative aspects of Pisceans is that they are overly sensitive, can sometimes have a fixation on religion and/or the occult. They are way too trusting at times, gets hurt easily and always get the short-end of the stick, so to speak. Therefore, they should always be choosey of who they let into their lives. Pisceans can be very vulnerable people because they tend to be easily misled, and sometimes have a weak will. This does not mean that Pisces are not strong. What do I mean by that? Well, because Pisces is the backbone of the Zodiac, holding all the other signs together, Pisceans can be one of the strongest signs in the Zodiac.

Because we know the dark side (negative aspects) of the Piscean nature, we can use the energy of these Piscean traits this month to truly build ourselves by becoming stronger individuals, less naive and more careful with opening ourselves. Pisceans are satisfied with who they are and what they have. So, this month, let’s try to find appreciation and gratitude for the people in our lives, the possessions we’ve successfully attained, and the wonderful person we turned out to be.

Pisceans are givers (altruistic), so let’s use the energies of this month to really go the extra mile in giving of ourselves to others. This month is a great month to find a charity or a worthy cause to adopt and support. This is also a good month to lend our services to all that are in need. If you are finding this difficult to do because you feel like it’s “going out of your way”, then how about helping those that are immediately around you? Like, helping your next door neighbor with the trash. Or, helping your colleague at work by picking up the lunch tab. Or, donating to a Goodwill or Salvation Army. There is an array of acts of kindness that you can do this month!

Pisceans are intensely loyal and faithful, so this is a great month to enter into the lives of those special people that will remain loyal and faithful to you, and you are able to reciprocate. In the end, Pisceans know that everything will be just fine.

This is the best month to explore your artistic side, as we know our Piscean friends have remarkable creativity, and great appreciation and love of beauty, literature, music and art. Pisceans also love nature, luxuries, travel to remote and exotic places, due to a burning yearning for new sensations. All in all, this is the best month to really get your traveling in!

This month, lean towards service and devotion to others. Find your inner strength and wild artistic and eccentric side. Take exotic trips and explore nature. Meet all of your needs, but be on the lookout of becoming complacent.
