Pisces is one of the most auspicious signs. It brings great satisfaction to the individual born under its influence, especially during the last portion of his life. The fish symbolizes fertility, prosperity and regeneration. When creation first began, Viṣṇu, who sustains life, appeared in the form of a fish. This manifestation of Him is known as Matsya-avatar, the fish avatar. The primary objective of Viṣṇư's fish incarnation is to save life and to regenerate the seed preserved therein. Likewise, Pisces in the last sign of the Vedic zodiac; it is the sign where forces dissolve and take birth anew.
Pisces natives are emotional and empathic; they can sometimes lose consciousness of their boundaries. They often look as if they do not belong to this life. Expansive and intelligent, they are enthusiastic, but not always wisely. Their enthusiasm may be a little blind. They can be very easily influenced and impressed.
Their weakness lies in their dependency on others and their reliance on addictions and day-dreaming. Because they tend to have unrealizable and dream-like aspirations, they need to be more discriminative.
They may lack boundaries and lose their clarity and practicality. They don't really have a personality as such and take the form of the people around them. They may strive to attach others to themselves, too, and can indulge in self-pity when they do not receive affection.
When open, they can imbibe and radiate fully the environment in which they live. They are natural devotional people with an attraction towards music.
These natives have to be especially careful with their nervous and digestive systems.
