In the warm waves of the southern sea, a translucent jellyfish drifts quietly. When developed, this Ascendant grants true wisdom, understanding of life, and adherence to the principle of non-resistance to evil at a high level—when a person accepts the world as it is and leaves the struggle to their egregore, directing their efforts through unbiased attention. At a low level, this person makes an amorphous impression; they seem easy to manipulate and subjugate to one’s will. They enjoy complaining about their life and receiving sympathy regardless of the content of their story; they are unlikely to judge and almost certainly will pity. This house position gives heightened emotional receptivity, sensitivity to others’ suffering and pain. Protection comes through lies and self-deception; emotional outbursts are typical for self-expression, making it difficult to discern anything genuine. However, if no contradictory factors are present, this person is generally kind and soft-hearted, of course within reasonable limits. Perception is soft and enveloping; the person instinctively avoids sharp edges and tries not to notice them either in the world or within themselves. Here, one must cultivate inner (and outer) honesty, focusing primarily on the moments emphasized by enemies, and strive to emulate their scrupulousness and precision, grounding their low emotional meditations that attempt to replace both external and internal life.

Gives a changeable, elusively mutable nature. The personality is soft, sentimental, intuitive, sensitive to impressions, with unpredictable reactions to the surroundings. Many changes and adjustments are introduced to new endeavors. Caution in choosing new ventures. Characteristic heightened sensitivity to external stimuli. Possible difficulty adapting in oppressive, stressful environments. Well-developed religious, mystical, mythological perception. Suggestibility, plasticity, and susceptibility to external influence are possible. Opponents are petty, insidious, slanderous, and nitpicking. One must learn practicality, responsibility, and a pragmatic approach to life. Development occurs through cultivating wisdom, inner honesty, and objective assessment of the external world.

{The rising sign, or first house, is the sector of space (sign) located directly above the eastern part of the horizon at the moment of a person’s birth. The rising sign provides much information about a person’s appearance and behavioral traits. In many respects, the rising sign exerts greater influence than the signs in which the Sun or Moon are located at birth. Knowing the rising sign provides much preliminary information about the character of the entire horoscope and the overall makeup of a person’s character. Pisces is a “water” sign, governed by Jupiter. “Pisces” are usually religious and emotional, serve well, and are interested in knowledge of spiritual liberation. By nature, they are timid or superstitious. Stubborn but pleasant and polite. They may suffer due to indecisiveness and lack of self-confidence. Worried and romantic, they dream of distant places and love to travel by water. Though they are wealthy and have good relationships with others, they are dissatisfied with their everyday life and seek solace in philosophy or frivolous matters. They are creative people with strong imagination; their sexual desires trouble them. Because they are somewhat careless, they spend their money. They may be lazy, yet they remain elevated souls capable of providing transcendent inspiration to us, less fortunate people. Pisces love history; they tend toward charitable and righteous activities. Externally, they are strong, with thick lips and a large nose. They obtain good wives and husbands but are jealous and suspicious of their partners. These are independent and active people, orthodox and sometimes fanatical. They are educated, possess considerable abilities, and can achieve fame due to their great influence on people and being perceived by them very sincerely. They are favorites of the opposite sex, have people who serve them, and can manage money well. They make good bankers, actors and actresses, travelers, and priests.}
Pavel Globa. Houses in the Signs
PISCES – a mysterious, enigmatic personality. Great plasticity in social behavior. Helplessness in the face of the crude world and the illusion of one’s own charisma. A hidden desire for self-assertion. All actions are either covert or carried out through others. Mystical sensitivity to the external and subtle worlds. Depth of the subconscious and instinct, dreams and fantasies. Ability to deceive and be deceived.

Expectations in the surrounding world — loneliness. Sensitive, compassionate, adaptable, airy, clairvoyant. They owe their achievements to a subtle perception of underlying currents. Their mystical insight helps them intuitively understand human nature. They possess artistic and musical talent. Willingness to help, sensitivity, empathy. Diverse public activities often contrary to their desires. Loneliness, depression, obstacles, timidity, shyness, incontinence, uncertainty, susceptibility to influence, capriciousness, passion for pleasure, manias, illnesses, sluggishness. Random events influence their life path, leading to numerous crises. You are a gentle, sensitive person with a deep understanding of others, tolerance, and an unbiased approach to life. In a noisy company or competitive atmosphere, you often fade into the background, as you are non-aggressive, not forceful by nature, and strongly dislike conflicts. In reality, you tend to be somewhat passive — feeling, knowing, waiting, observing much, but acting little. Often, your way of resolving problems is to let them dissipate or exhaust themselves on their own rather than using your will or interfering. You may have a deeply spiritual, religious attitude toward life — not necessarily in an orthodox sense, but as an intuitive understanding of the boundlessness and unity underlying all existence, compared to which so many human desires and struggles seem insignificant. To flourish, you need a peaceful environment, and for emotional balance and well-being, periods of quiet solitude are essential. You are also very compassionate and cannot bear the suffering of any living being — neither human, nor animal, nor even a plant. Perhaps as a child, you were easily upset and would cry if someone was hurt, physically or emotionally. For you, the world of imagination and fantasy was very real; it served as a refuge when the external world became too aggressive, demanding, or simply uninteresting. You are very generous and magnanimous, and people are drawn to you, sensing your compassionate nature. Often, you continue to give and provide for others even when you realize they are taking advantage of your kindness or becoming overly dependent on you. You do not notice or forgive the weaknesses of others or your own. Organization and self-discipline are not characteristic of you. Although you may be no less intelligent than others, you lack a rational, logical approach to life, and attempts to convince you with logical arguments often prove futile. You are guided by feelings, intuition, the heart, but not the head, which can frustrate or confuse your more rational friends. You probably know that life is something far greater than what can be explained intellectually and neatly categorized, and you approach psychic phenomena, telepathy, parapsychology, and the like with unbiased curiosity. You are less structured and rigid in your relationships than many others, which allows you to see different perspectives and accept them all as having the right to exist. This can lead to vagueness, uncertainty, and confusion in your approach — or it can be a very flexible, holistic path to achieving any goal.
Harrison Omar. Medical Astrology. Eastern Sign
Pisces rising: flat feet, the white of the eye visible between the iris and the lower eyelid. Their manner suggests immersion in secretive thoughts.
