PISCES HOROSCOPE

That opportunity to move or relocate looks increasingly likely with each passing day. You yearn for something new and different, and the Stars are signaling a fresh start. However, there’s a faith factor that keeps getting in the way and stopping you short. You’ve experienced too many episodes where you pinned your hopes on a Hollywood ending only to be left with an Ingmar Bergman outcome that leaves you bereft and asking stark philosophical questions. The good news is that this won’t happen this time. Your Ruling Planet Jupiter in Cancer aligned with the lunar eclipse in Virgo ensures that things should work out nicely.

There's nothing wrong with thinking better of it. It's a Pisces prerogative. Besides, it's probably a good idea given that Mercury, planet of the mind, will be turning retrograde in your zodiac sign on February 26th. This is when certain apprehensions resurface, causing you to stop dead in your tracks. Not only will you be haunted by feelings of something being off, but you'll receive strong prompts to reverse course or do an about-face. And you would be wise to follow them. It may not make sense in the moment, but trust that all will be revealed after the lunar eclipse in Virgo on March 3rd.

You have an extraordinary ability to speak to people’s hearts, minds, and souls when Mercury forms a trine to your Ruling Planet Jupiter on February 16th. This can be good if your motives are pure — that is, restorative, healing, and rehabilitative — because you will turn hopeless situations into hopeful ones. However, if you use this energy to manipulate people’s psychologies — like telling them what they should feel or using their secrets to bring them to heel — then the energy will turn against you. There’s always a moral obligation to do good when Mercury and Jupiter join forces. It’s all about bringing on the higher love.

Venus in Pisces is always a good transit because your powers of attraction are undeniable. You’ll get what you want because nobody can resist you. But Venus in Pisces is also like having three wishes. They’re no good if you don’t use them, and will only deliver limited results (or worse: unenviable predicaments) if you act impulsively. Use your imagination. Think of the people you know who can help you—and the people they know—because these are your genies now. Approach them with purpose and a plan, and your wish is their command. Venus is in Pisces from February 10th to March 6th.

They say that Mercury, planet of thinking, struggles in the zodiac sign of Pisces, but that's a matter of perspective. You've never been one for facts and stats. That sort of staccato analysis misses the point of the links between parts. It's why you've always been an associative thinker – paddling from idea to idea in a free flowing stream of consciousness. Mercury in Pisces from February 6th to April 14th will help you uncover the theme that weaves disparate ideas into a polychromatic tapestry. And like a Buddhist sand mandala painstakingly put together over a period of time, it will be erased entirely upon completion.

On January 26th, Ruling Planet Neptune departs Pisces and enters the zodiac sign of Aries. This marks a sea change unlike any you've experienced before. Although at home in Pisces, Neptune tends to emphasize your more unrequited feelings when it's in your sign. That's because suffering and sacrifice lend themselves to more profound and soulful experiences. Neptune in Aries, however, will be an entirely different story because of its fiery temperament. Aries is the sign of “be here now,” which means you can look forward to less longing and more being, now that you're driven by an insatiable urgency to live in the moment.

It may feel like you’re putting all your eggs in one basket when it comes to a romantic matter or a business opportunity, but when have you ever done things differently? There are certain zodiac signs that have an all-or-nothing approach to life, and yours is one of them. You never do anything in moderation. This is why you suffer such crushing disappointments as well as exhilarating victories. Right now, you look poised to experience a peculiar mix of the two. This could leave you feeling bewildered, so give yourself time to fully absorb what’s going on. You’ll like what materializes after the 23rd.

Life has been challenging since Saturn, planet of tests, entered Pisces in March 2023; but there have been some amazing moments too—like this week, for instance. It's rare when you recognize how everything that's come before has led to where you find yourself now. Moreover, the parade of planets forming their last sextile to Saturn in Pisces between January 15th and 20th shows you being gifted with qualities that only they can imbue. Be grateful for Venus's grace, the Sun's heart, Mercury's wit, and Mars's courage—but most of all, be grateful to Saturn for giving you the profundity with which to employ all of these wisely.

Loved ones and friends pride themselves on telling you how to live. They like to lecture you about the need to be more grounded, responsible, and conforming, but as a Pisces what they say just doesn't make sense. It's like someone talking to you under water. On January 10th, the Sun and Mars will oppose Ruling Planet Jupiter in the sky and you will have to choose between doing things other people's way or yours. Given that Jupiter will be in the stronger position it looks like you'll let your freak flag fly – which is something you've been waiting to do for the longest time.

Something you produced will generate notice this week. It may not go viral, but the ripple effects will be far and wide. This is just the validation you've been looking for. It's also a wonderful sign of encouragement. Now part of you may start to worry about whether this newfound recognition will result in anything substantial, but put that aside for now. What you want to do is answer every text and respond to every inquiry. It may be a passing thing – in which case it was fun while it lasted – or it could lead to something more. You'll never know unless you follow up.
