Welcome to Gaia! ::

what are they like

I think those features are all very much piscean - I can identify with piscean traits because of the massive influence of pisces in my chart (moon and ascendant, plus a five planet stellium in the 12th). But, has anyone found pisceans to be extremely hard to type, generally?

I think those features refer to what pisceans are like on the inside, but I've heard that it is a tendency of pisces to assimilate with their environment and what they believe is expected of them to the extent that you just don't know what they are inside until you really get to know them, and when you meet a pisces your first impression of them can be very unpiscean. They are, to me, the most difficult sign to pin down.

Oh my.
You wouldn't believe how long it took me to type up that Piscean description.

I was only thinking of the basics, because if I were to mention everything else...uhhh.... sweatdrop

I agree with everything already said. I think they(or should I say 'we'...?) also tend to lie a little bit... not deviantly, though. ^^; I guess that's what makes them good storytellers?
They are also supposed to be the sweetest, most romantic sign, capable of making their love-person feel completely loved and satisfied with ease. They are in love with the idea of falling in love.
I would imagine we're a pain to understand though... and extremely subtle.
A little spacey... haha.

I agree pisces are very difficult to pin down, because they do adapt to their environements so well and can mold into any shape. They also may only let you see what they want you to see. They can be anything you want. (Except maybe on time, or practical. sweatdrop )

Yeah... we're crazy!!
but we're cute!! 4laugh
(er.. sort of... )

You know, I think we're also pretty much disorganized because of our laziness.

Because my mom is always telling me everyday to clean my room, and I procrastinate on that. XD;;

Now my room is not that messy, but my mom still exaggerates on how bad it looks. So bad that it makes her yell, scream, and not want to touch me in fear of disgust. >___>;;

Jeez there's just a few papers on the floor, and dust and pieces of hair scattered here and there...

and a few pens cluttered together on surfaces....

>___>;;

Well at least I didn't color my walls with crayons and paint.

They're a good time; I've been with one. She was very understanding, fun, and just... sweet. Totally compatible with me (I'm a Cancer with moon in Pisces), too bad she had to move. mad

Sun in Pisces:

At heart you are very gentle, impressionable, and receptive - a dreamer. The world of your imagination, feelings, and intuition is as real to you as anything in the outer world, though you may have trouble verbalizing or interpreting your inner experiences in a way others can understand. Mystical, artistic, musical, emotional and imaginative, you have a rich inner life, though you may seem rather unobtrusive and quiet outwardly. You usually keep to yourself.

You have great sensitivity and empathy with others, and you often sense things psychically or intuitively which prove to be correct. You are tolerant, forgiving, and nonjudgmental, accepting people unconditionally
regardless of their flaws, mistakes, or outward appearance. You have deep compassion for the suffering of any fellow creature and often feel others' pain as if it were your own. You sympathize with the needy, the disadvantaged, the misfits of society. You are capable of giving selflessly,
living a life of devoted and compassionate service to others, as a healer, physician, social worker, or minister. However, you tend to give indiscriminately, to let others take advantage of your kindness, and to encourage the weak to remain so by becoming dependent upon you. You have little sense of boundaries, of limits, of knowing when to say "no". Moderation and self-discipline are not your strong points.

You are a lover and a peace-maker rather than a fighter, and you try to avoid open conflict. You will patiently ignore or "tune out" problems and hope they will go away by themselves, rather than directly confronting them, and you tend to lack the positive fighting spirit that is sometimes necessary to overcome challenges. You are fluid, open, nonresistant, and
somewhat passive. You do things in a subtle, often covert, manner.

Your gifts may also lie in the realm of the creative, artistic, or musical, for you have a great sensitivity, inspiration, and limitless imagination. You respond very strongly to beauty and to love.

Your faults include a tendency to be lazy and negligent, and to wallow in self-pity rather than taking strong, definite action to change your life for the better. You also tend to become so detached from your immediate environment that you live in a disorderly, chaotic sort of hodgepodge, though this probably bothers those around you more than it bothers you.

Female Pisceans are ultra sensitive and dreamy most of the time. They're peacemakers and prefer not to have conflicts around them. They're really easy to hurt, and come across as cowards a lot, but they're really loyal friends and they can patch up broken hearts for their friends like it was an art form... They are rather strong in their convictions and don't give up long after others have. Graceful, shy, ultra feminine in their ways... very artistic or creative.

They like being pampered and when in love, it's like a sea of love to be with them, they somehow really make you think that it's a dream come true.

As the twelfth and last sign of the zodiac, Pisces contains within itself a little experience of all the signs. This gives Pisces Suns the ability to identify with people from all walks of life—from all backgrounds—in some way. These individuals are not only changeable and adaptable, they have open minds and tremendous understanding. But Pisces itself is often misunderstood. Pisces Suns may spend a good portion of their lives yearning for understanding, and the other part in a state of divine discontent. Suffering is sometimes glamorized in the Piscean world.

Sun in Pisces people are frequently pegged as wishy-washy, but this is all a matter of opinion. What you will find behind a vaguely directionless, spacey manner is a deep person with real dreams. Their dreams are more than getting that picket fence or making it up the corporate ladder. Pisces are tuned in to a higher purpose and their dreams transcend the individual. A deep love for humanity, and compassion that knows no bounds is found with this placement of the Sun. Pisceans are not known to be cutthroat business types, nor are they given to throwing themselves out into the world in an aggressive manner. But make no mistake about it, Pisces can be extraordinarily successful when given the chance to express themselves. The arts, marketing, music, teaching, drama, healing arts...these are all fields in which Pisces can find expression. Their imagination, attunement to humanity, and remarkable intuition endow them with enviable gifts of insight and creativity.

Pisces is a sensitive sign—both sensitive to criticism and sensitive to others' feelings. Easily touched by human suffering, at least in theory, Pisces wouldn't hurt a fly. They believe in people, are deeply hurt by compassionless human behavior, and have a hard time saying no. Harsh realities are avoided either through escapist behavior or self-delusion; but every now and again reality does raise its ugly head, and hits Pisces over the head. This is a sad time indeed. Pisces retreats into their own world, self-pitying and giving pep talks to themselves ("I will never trust again!"). Rest assured, though, that these periods are rather short-lived and even useful. Pisces seems to derive energy from their (generally short) bouts of self-pity. They come back stronger, with a spring in their step, ready to face the world again, and just as, if not more, compassionate and trusting as they were before. Some might even wonder if Pisces finds pleasure in suffering. Sometimes this is the case, but most of the time, Pisces pulls a lot of creative energy from sadness. Pisces is the poet or artist with angst, although this trait is often more apparent with Moon in Pisces.

Some find Pisces' tendency to be late for appointments, spaced out behavior, and absent-mindedness amount to irresponsibility. Pisces would be shocked to know this, however. Who me? Pisces wonders. Irresponsible? Pisces Suns absolutely care—their love knows no bounds—but their retreats from ordinary life (whether they are as simple as daydreams or actual departures) that they so seem to need every now and again are not always understandable to no-nonsense signs, such as Virgo or Aries. Many Pisces seem almost allergic to things like shopping lists, maps, directions, and instructions, and for some brave souls, even watches — they prefer to feel their way through life than to follow some plan. We find plenty of artists, poets, and musicians with Sun (and other personal planets) in Pisces. Piscean themes are woven throughout the songs of Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins and Kurt Cobain of Nirvana, for example.

(so sad and pathetic how well I fit in there....O.o)
