Revive an old project or passion this week, Pisces, and see if it still has legs. Your ruling planet Neptune forms a "heavenly trine" to structured Saturn, helping you merge the imaginative with the practical. If this idea truly has long-term potential, you'll know this week. Hey, maybe you gave up on it too soon; or maybe timing and circumstances simply weren't on your side the last time you gave it a go. This week, put on the project manager's chapeau and see if a revival is in the cards. Crunch numbers, research materials, determine necessary resources and see if this is a can-do idea. No matter the answer, you're definitely ready to dive into something major, something that fires you up and gets you inspired to wake up in the morning. That's because "personal trainer planet" Saturn has laid down the gauntlet, entering you ninth house of big, bold gambles for three years this past Friday, October 5. With Saturn in this position, you'll understand clearly that without risk there can be no reward. That's not to say you should start wildly throwing yourself into iffy situations. Saturn is cautious and methodical, so your risks should be calculated ones. That said, it's a good sign if you feel like a fish out of water in some ways. It means the potential to grow and learn are immense. You may need to train or study with a master in order to gain the requisite skill to take your leap. Start the process this week. What lights you up but also scares you a little simultaneously because it's so out of your comfort zone? Explore and pursue, see if this path may hold some future fulfillment for you. Mingling with people from different cultures and walks of life will be part of the picture. Don't let superficial barriers prevent you from saying hello, initiating conversation, or joining a group. You may need to travel or hold web-based meetings in order to connect with these powerful people. While Saturn may restrict some of your nomadic ways, traveling with a purpose is fully sanctioned. Some Pisces might even find themselves ready to relocate in conjunction with a higher mission, entrepreneurial venture, or meaningful educational purpose. Your sense of independence will be tested this week too, so brace yourself.  When you think of standing on your own two feet, do you feel solid or shaky? You'll be building up a stronger backbone in the days ahead, and part of that process means facing your "I can't handle it alone!" fears. You're more capable than you give yourself credit for, Pisces. Alas, one of your sign's weaknesses is a propensity for playing the victim. You underestimate yourself, but enough of that! This week will bring a moment where you get to boldly step out on your own, turning down the security blanket of "support" that you don't actually need. Although you might feel terrified for a moment, pulling off this mission unassisted will bring an epic surge of confidence. And to think, this is only just the beginning...

General Characteristics of Pisces

Pisces is symbolized by two fish swimming in opposite directions. A part of you is always trying to "swim away" or escape reality. The other part is so intuitive that you get swept up in everything going on. Your imagination is the perfect hideout when you want to escape, since Pisces is so creative. You love dancing (Pisces rules the feet), movies, poetry, and music. Your moods are mysterious and your dreams are intense. Every Pisces should have a journal by your bed, since some your best ideas will come in your sleep. Although you can feel helpless, you're much stronger than you think. The best way for Pisces to experience your own strength is to help people in need. You have great compassion and incredible healing powers. Because it's easy for people to make you feel guilty, Pisces should watch out for friends who use you, or make you doubt yourself. Surround yourself with good-hearted friends who have their acts together. Many people born under your sign have a "tortured soul" quality. Finding a tranquil spiritual outlet, or spending time alone, can help you get re-centered in your own power.
