Quick Summary
As a water sign, your ability to empathise and bend to the needs of others is strong. You're often to be found lending a sympathetic ear, organising somebody else's celebration or being intuitive about someone else's pain or concerns. As such, you're one of the most forgiving signs in the zodiac.
In relationships, the above traits can be incredibly beneficial to a lover, who will find themselves supported and heard, but beware the tendency to try and 'fix' people, sometimes at the sacrifice of your own wellbeing.
Pisces Traits
Compassionate
The bleeding heart of the zodiac, you’re known for your legendary compassion and forgiving nature. Your sensitive and dreamy personality turns life into poetry on a daily basis. You see everything through the lens of cinema, as if you’re writing, directing and acting in your own movie. You seek and find significance in the imagery and symbolism of your daily drama.
Kind
You can’t stand to see people (or animals) suffering and will go to great lengths to alleviate as much pain as possible whenever you can. You were born to heal. You’re also a mystic who can extract the spiritual meaning from even the most mundane situations. People look to you as a muse and saviour – sometimes to a fault.
Metamorphic
You are a mix of each of the other eleven zodiac signs and can turn into a chameleon to adapt to any situation. This can sometimes feel like an identity crisis, as your overly sensitive nature can take on the energy and personality traits of the people you spend the most time with. You’re as absorbent as a sponge, so be highly selective of the people you allow into your orbit. You feel everything in your body before your mind has a chance to process it. Your sign rules the feet, so regular pedicures, foot massages and reflexology sessions do wonders for your soul.
Pisces Compatibility - Love and Sex
Idealistic
You may be one of the most romantic, idealistic signs of the zodiac when it comes to love. When you fall for someone, the birds sing and black and white becomes instant Technicolor. If you’ve found a quality soul mate with whom to share your bed and your life, this is fine. When you officially adore someone, they can do no wrong.
Optimistic
Yet you can overlook even the most abhorrent qualities when you’re in love because you’re so preoccupied with the fantasy of saving your beloved with your magical healing abilities. You tend to find the broken ones, so co-dependence can be a big problem for you, Pisces. Making a realistic assessment of the viability of an equal partnership must be on your to-do list, so you don’t get swept up into a years-long fantasy.
Devoted
Sex is a complete merging experience for you, so it’s important to pick lovers who are good on the inside and out.
Pisces Beauty and Style
Vibrant
Beauty rituals are pure theatre for you, Pisces. You are the shape-shifter of the zodiac and can use makeup to completely alter your look. Don’t be surprised if you’re mistaken for someone else after you put your face on. Being totally ethereal is your jam.
Dramatic
You know how to work the illusory magic of dreamy dresses and shimmery eye shadow. There’s an otherworldly feel to your style even when you’re out doing errands – you are never basic. Whether subtle or dramatic, you know how to leave a lasting impression that keeps people intrigued for lifetimes. Glamour is your second drug of choice, after love, and it comes so easily to you.
