Pisces, Aligning Ourselves with Spirit

By Maya del Mar

Pisces is the last of the signs, the place where all of our lives, successes and failures, loves and hates, past and future, light and dark, are integrated. It is where our soul and our personality finally meet—and join.

In Aquarius we incorporated our guiding star, our ideals, into our lives. Now in Pisces we can touch that inner spirit in ourselves which informs us how we are living up to those ideals. We can use that starlight to move through the dark of unfinished business, and its fire to burn away the final dross of our zodiacal journey. It was a Piscean child who could say, “See, the Emperor has no clothes!”

Pisces is a water sign. All water signs are healing and bridging signs. Through them we touch our e-motions, which literally spur us to motion, move us into expression of what has real meaning to us. Pisces’ connection to proper understanding is shown by its association to the feet, which stand under us.

Water signs are in touch with suffering, and most suffering arises in the letting go of something to which we cling. In the air signs, which precede the water signs, we tend to hang onto outmoded ideas, attitudes, perspectives, and ways of thinking. Now, in Pisces, we allow intuition to work with mind to separate the significant from the petty, so that we can let go of nonessentials.

In Pisces, the last of the water signs, we must go all the way, we must finish the job. It is time to go through that metamorphosis which leads to transcendence of all those earthly ties which bind only the personality. The way must be opened for the soul.

The energy for this inner ruthlessness is like the great depths of the sea. During its quiet times the sea erodes the land inconspicuously but inexorably. In its stormy times, tidal waves and hurricanes can be totally devastating. Always, the sea releases its debris. We can see it on the beaches and in the fishermen’s nets.

Purification is the goal. It is during Pisces time that we engage in the fasting and penance of Lent. We are preparing the space for the fresh birth of Aries at Spring Equinox.

The night force is now in its closing phase, and all the remaining ghosts must be cleaned out if we are to become agents of universal wholeness.

Our imaginations open. We touch the grand symphony of the spheres. As we strengthen our inner focus, our purpose can become clear. In Pisces we need to align ourselves with spirit; if we fail to do this, confusion and chaos result.

As our sensitivity is increased, as we refocus around our spiritual center, we find a new strength to act, and that strength is generated through love. In Pisces we will be drawn to whatever we love the most, and if we focus our love on our true purpose, we will draw to ourselves opportunities for growth and success. Love is the greatest of all healing powers.

In Pisces we can appreciate the poetry and beauty of life. We have a restlessness to become part of the good, the true, and the beautiful which persist through time. The eternal verities draw us.

As we detach ourselves from one time and place, we can tune into all times and places. As we open and listen to our own deepest selves, we become attuned to all of life. We become aware that we are connected with one another in one vast web of life, and what happens to one part affects all the parts. We thus develop compassion and true humility.

Examples of Pisceans with an ability to see the whole combined with a strong sense of purpose are George Washington, the Father of our Country, James Madison, the Father of the Constitution, and Ralph Nader, who has been behind most of the environmentally friendly legislation which Congress has passed in the last 30 years, including the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act. Talk about purification!

    This insight seems to fit very well in my life at aged 64. With sun at 20 pisces and venus at 29deg conj asc, I recently left an abusive relationship (no 3) after waiting 5 years to sell a joint property. I moved 1000klmtrs away and am currently living in student accommodation until in a town I feel very comfortable in and yet to find the ‘right’ home to buy.
    With moon, mars and saturn in cancer, a home and family have always been important to me even tough I emgrated and left some 40 years ago for a better life weatherwise than the gloomy rainy city I grew up in.

    It’s been a long road to freedom to be who I am and to be able to identify what seems real to me rather than listening to the voices others always seem to think they have a right to try to impose on me.
    with Uranus squaring my sun in gemini I’ve been blessed with a bit of a rebel streak and at this point inlife where others think I a mad to live the way I do, I have a profound sense that all will be well and how easy is is to live without all the trappings of a material life.

    Am not sure how I would go without the computer though!!
    In time I know the home will be presented to me but I will not be as tied to it as I have been previously. I think events of the nest few years may bring a similar wake up call to many. Peace and kindness and blessings for this site. Pat
