Planets in Pisces

Moon

Moon in Pisces suggests that emotions and responses are expressed in a wide variety of ways but always with sensitivity and adaptability. They are very responsive to the depths of human experience, having an understanding and affection for nearly all people. They are especially sensitive, perceptive and perhaps even dreamy.

Emotionally naive, they continually overlook other people's shortcomings and deficiencies and may rarely see life as it really is. This is a very passive position, and if they are not careful, others may attempt to take advantage of them. They are very trusting, unselfish and open-handed. Sometimes they can be a little too generous, especially with their boundless sympathy. They are very easily hurt, and can spend too much time feeling sorry for themselves.

Most astrologers agree that this is the most psychic Moon of all, and they connect with others on an unconscious, emotional level, feeling what they feel. Thus, they have a most compassionate and sympathetic nature.

Mercury

Mercury in Pisces produces a mind that is receptive and ruled by feelings. Speech and communication can either be vague and disorganised or enigmatic and insightful. They don't pay much attention to the mundane detail of the everyday world that they live in, and they usually follow their instincts rather than any sense of reason or logic.

There is a certain naïveté in their nature, and they are gentle and trusting, seeing the good in everyone. However, this often means that they are easily fooled and misled, and may be vulnerable in many of their business and personal affairs.

They are very sensitive and easily hurt, becoming negative and moody when they are. This keen sensitivity may put them in touch with matter in the unseen realm, and they seem to be very intuitive and perceptive.

They have a wonderful imagination and are artistically oriented. Their love of music and other art forms may be very strong. They are tuned in a most sensitive way to sound and colour, and can hear sounds and see shapes that others don't. Creative imagination is at its strongest in this sign.

Venus

Venus in Pisces may show a very compassionate and tender-hearted nature. They are romantic, escapist and often addicted to love. They have a strong need for love and understanding, and without this they can feel lost. No one else can experience the extreme highs and low lows faced in the love life of this position.

Their extreme sensitivity can leave them open to hurt. They have a fear of rejection that can make it hard to express their feelings. They have a tendency to suffer in silence and become very reticent, and when affairs don't go well for them, they feel and act like a martyr.

With their warmth and graciousness, they have little trouble establishing close relationships. Their sensitivity makes them a most understanding person, but one who is highly dependent and in need of a caring partner; this vulnerability can be a very attractive trait.

Their intuition is highly developed, and they relate deeply to art, poetry, nature and music. They may have artistic talents or just an excellent sense of appreciation.

Mars

They are creative and gifted, but often need direction and containment to be successful. They have a natural sensitivity to colour, tone and rhythm that may be of benefit to them in artistic endeavours.

Mars responds in a confused manner in Pisces; its assertive action is drowned in this sign that is so receptive, emotional, sensitive and even psychic.

Saturn

Saturn in Pisces limits or controls the natural gullible and sensitive emotions while teaching the subject how to put on a brave face and show the world what they are really made of.
