Pisces in Love

Ruled by mystical Neptune, Pisces is the most romantic sign of the zodiac. You have the stuff of romance flowing through your very veins. From the moment you heard your first fairy tale you were caught up in the magic of those princesses locked in towers and princes rescuing them. Somehow, you have never quite rid yourself of the notion that there is a special someone for you, a soul-mate, someone who will go through fire and water to claim you. And if anyone can find their soul-mate, you can. The trouble is you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find him.

In your quest for the Holy Grail, perfect love, you can go through many disastrous love affairs and possibly a marriage or two. And you suffer a lot. You give your all to the man you're in love with; you trust him and abandon friends, jobs, ambitions, and a few principles too, in order to keep him. Caught up in the hormonal rush of lust, you lose all sense of perspective and convince yourself that this is HIM - you have a repeat prescription for rose-coloured specs. It may take years before you realize that you made a mistake.

There are several routes out of the maze of illusion, betrayal and rejection - one of them is to turn your watery nature into ice, thus living a celibate existence and channelling your loving energy into other pursuits; another is to martyr yourself to a troubled and unfulfilling marriage, pining and withering on the vine. Many celestial Fish opt for either of these two courses. But there is a third way. By accepting that all human beings are flawed, and that we only truly find the heaven in another person once we have exited this earthly realm is a good start. No one person can make our lives for us: we must do that ourselves, but we may find someone who can share the journey with us. In working with the reality of a relationship and tossing out the dream factor you could find that you do indeed have a prince of a guy. And if anyone can find him, you can.

The Piscean Man

Pisces men come in all shapes and sizes but they have one thing in common, they will all have a tale of tragedy to tell you. They are great story-tellers, serious romantics and very difficult to pin down. When you go fishing for a Pisces man, you'll need sonar equipment and a wet-suit: he is elusive and slippery, and he'll drive you mad. Truth is very much as he sees it at the time, so don't expect him to be reliable and consistent. He's not the most faithful of men, either, but he has a reason: you. You didn't care enough or you did something that he cannot fully explain, but you caused it. Of course, he has many redeeming qualities: he is deliciously sexy, sloppily sentimental, kind and caring. He needs a woman who will earth him and make sense of his dreams. If that's you, go to him: you'll never have a dull day in Neverland.

Who's For You

You are not the type to be limited to only a handful of signs but as a general rule of thumb you will be drawn to signs that belong to the Mutable family - Sagittarius, Gemini, Virgo and Pisces. The Sagittarian really floats your boat - this man has all the confidence, fire and spirit of adventure that you crave. He is very commitment shy so getting to the altar can prove lengthy and circuitous, and once you're together he may totally blow your fuses when it comes to security and fidelity, but at least you'll never be bored. Mr Gemini has other ways of keeping you guessing: it's this man's mind that fascinates you, and his dark side, yet in the long run you may find he is too emotionally unavailable and verbally cruel. Virgo is your opposite number so you have many similarities and many sharp differences, all of which go to make you deeply attracted to each other, and able to sustain a long and abiding union. Anther Pisces is either a dream come true or a total nightmare - it depends how well you understand yourself and how much projection there is involved in the relationship. Taurus and Capricorn are two other compatible signs - they stabilize and contain you.

Life Love Money The Spring Horoscope for Pisces

Is 2012 already proving to be an eventful year? No surprise if it is because of all the signs yours is the one facing the most fascinating developments. During the spring, Neptune combines with a solar eclipse to bring the amazing and the unexpected into your life, and this trend is particularly strong on or near 5th April, 22nd May and 25th June. The changes the events of the time inspire may only be small initially but they could have a chain reaction so that in a few years time your life will be entirely different. Certainly, if you have a 19th -24th February birthday, or planets in the first degrees of Pisces, what you thought you wanted from life, no longer has the same appeal, your priorities are changing. Don’t be surprised if you yearn to spend time on or near water, become preoccupied with the study of dreams and all things psychic, or you fall madly, truly and deeply in love. The world of Neptune will invite you in, one way or another.

If you could see Mars with the naked eye you might be shaking your finger at him, because this planet has been stationed in the relationship zone since last November. Some of you may have seen some welcome action in your love life while others have experienced nothing but conflict and controversy. This pattern does not disappear for the spring but there are improvements. Partners who have been pressing for change or who have been faced with difficulties, become easier to deal with; on the other hand, you may feel more accepting of the situation. Should you be in the 19th-24th February birthday group, anything and everything could happen: you might fall mesmerizingly in love or someone could let you down badly. The point being that relationships, like life itself, are never stagnant, you are always moving from desolation to consolation, and back again. Certainly, now that Neptune has you in is aura, your heart is open wide.

The material things of life are never quite as important to Pisces as they are to some of the other signs, but you can’t live on ether! During the spring you have planets in the right place to make wise financial moves, and in many cases this will involve property. A few Pisceans will be beginning new business partnerships or joining a new company: if so, avoid getting too swept away by over-optimistic projections – small is beautiful. Also, although I hate to burst your balloon, not everyone is being as honest as you might think. Please do background checks, and do not be pressured into signing a contract unless all your questions have been answered. Surprises and epiphanies could be all part of the late May and June period. Education and travel also feature in your stars, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself in the role of teacher, taking a course or enjoying more business trips.
