pisces placements act as mirrors for others. people project their sexual desires and fantasies on the pisces mars. beauty and romantic ideals on the pisces venus. pisces placements don’t feel like they have a firm footing in their life because they always take on the energies of those around them, they have a hard time undertanding who they really are.

“There is a philosophy, that the world we perceive through our senses, is only a version of a deeper reality. The Greek philosophers Socrates and Plato, taught that the world of our senses is a distortion, a mirage… like a shadow playing across a wall. Many historians believe that the Greeks were influenced by spiritual thinkers from India, where the idea of a deeper reality has a very long history. In Sanskrit, the word "maya” refers to this illusion and the selective view of reality we perceive through our senses. Beyond our manifest physical universe, there is a field of energy, information, and intelligence that orchestrates and governs the material environment. This ground state of creation is called the conscious energy field.
The conscious energy field does not exist independently of our perception of it. In other words, reality is a two-way street. We are both transmitters and receivers of information. We are both the creation and the creators of the conscious energy field, and are participants in a consciousness-created universe. This doesn’t mean that there’s no external reality, or that the universe literally takes place inside our heads. What it means is that the physical universe has no qualities or attributes in the absence of a conscious observer. For example, we see color as an attribute of physical reality. But color is not really inherent to reality. Instead, the phenomenon of color is a response made by the human nervous system to stimuli from the environment. We experience color as if it’s happening outside us, but we’re actually projecting it from inside us, and creating the phenomenon of color in the conscious energy field. This knowledge, combined with the power of intent, can allow you to create other phenomena in your life. By simply intending to create something, you have now begun to nurture that result in the physical world.“ -Deepak Chopra / Artwork by @tropicalgloom

Signs of the Zodiac, 16th century.
(by J.Ōta)

The archetype of Aries is fiery, dominant, and egotistical, an enticingly dangerous mix of traits that compile to create the reckless stereotype surrounding the classic “bad bitch” of the Zodiac.
Factually speaking, Aries is the first astrological sign of the zodiac. The Sun transits through this sign from 21st March and 19th April, meaning any individual born on or between these dates has Aries as their sun sign. The Ram is a cardinal sign, and it is also a part of the fire signs along with Leo and Sagittarius.
Aries’ ruler is Mars, the planet of sexuality, anger, assertion, and impulsiveness. In mythology, Mars is the Roman god of war, whose importance was second only to Jupiter. Those with the influence of Aries exhibit different traits of Mars. Which traits, and how they manifest, depend upon where Aries energy can be found in one’s chart.
In my explanations, I will cover how Sun, Moon, Ascendant, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in Aries influence one’s personality.
As many already know, the sun sign is a large chunk of one’s personality; how a friend would describe you to others. Sun in Aries is a placement that indicates a very extroverted and daring person.
Although Aquarius is typically seen as the rebellious sign, Aries also thrives off of testing the rules and guidelines of the world around them. Also much like Aquarius, Aries is fiercely independent and individual. Aries Sun natives lean towards athletic interests, and other such activities that get one’s heart racing, (they’re relatively fearless), such as rock climbing or skydiving.
Easy to anger, those with this placement are not afraid of suppressing their aggression, in fact they may use it to their advantage. They often put up an assertive front in order to intimidate others, and they’re certainly not one to stand idly by if someone is talking smack about them.
Aries sun children make wonderful friends if you can match their limitless energy and passion. However, if you cannot grasp their abundant charisma and need for freedom, or are simply overwhelmed by their bluntness, make an effort to understand them better, for Aries are fiercely protective and surprisingly sensitive friends.
The moon represents one’s feelings, the internal self. Looking at the moon sign can explain what a person needs to feel content in their lives and love, as well as how they function in terms of emotion.
Those with Moon in Aries are very complex. They are spontaneous, and often tend to dive into things head-first as a result. Because of this tendency, they are prone to falling in and out of love easily, and act upon their feelings based upon impulse rather than logic or reason.
On the other hand, when they do get invested in something, it’s always at full strength. Whether it is a new relationship or a new project, Aries Moon people are deeply passionate, and will make an effort to show it. They are very “hands on” with their emotions, rather than trying to interpret them from afar.
Depending on the day, Aries Moon people can either internalize or loudly project their feelings. Most of the time, they’ll play it cool around others, especially those they want to “impress.” Above all other things, they trust their instinct and gut feeling on any and all issues. They have a big heart.
The rising sign, also called the ascendant, is the impression or general vibe you give off to others who do not know you very well, or those you have just met. Your rising sign is likely the sign others would guess you to be.
People with an Aries Rising have a very striking physical appearance. They tend to have sharp, precise movements that they execute with an air of purpose. The aura they give off can be intimidating, and instill in others the idea that they are large and in charge.
Their beauty is interesting, with strong features and an often naturally athletic form. If you make eye contact, their gaze is most likely intense and confident. Aries Risings can come across as rude or arrogant, but usually they are just self-assured. They put up a front that can seriously contradict a more gentle side of them.
Mercury represents how an individual thinks and processes information, as well as how they speak and communicate. Those with Mercury in Aries are gut thinkers, and make their decisions very quickly (which they might regret later.) Their minds are active, and they speak nearly as fast as thoughts enter their head. They can be a bit overwhelming if you get them going on a subject they are passionate about.
Venus is one’s sensual side, how one acts in love. People with an Aries Venus often find themselves taking the lead if the other person doesn’t make a move. They usually enjoy the “thrill of the chase” when it comes to winning someone’s affections, but are equally as hard to catch themselves. They have a vast capacity for passion, and thoroughly enjoy physical contact in most of its forms. Those with their Venus in Aries can be major teases, whether they are aware of it or not, but in the end they know exactly what they want.
Mars represents sexuality, aggression, and recklessness. It is often used to see how someone acts in sexual encounters, arguments, and occasionally debate (although Mercury better explains this, Mars does play a role.) Individuals with Mars in Aries exhibit the most stereotypical Mars traits, which makes sense considering Mars is Aries’ ruling planet.
People with this placement can be described as dominant and intense. When angered, they often disregard feelings and deliver extensive rants, but once they’ve made their point they try to exit the scene as quickly as possible. They tend to be explosive, but as soon as it’s over, they are known to forgive as easily as they’re angered. Excessive swearing is their main attack (and defense.)

Perhaps it’s not a coincidence that Jupiter being in someone’s 1st house or having Jupiter rule their rising is sometimes described to be a placement that can “bring luck wherever the individual goes”.
Let’s look at Sagittarius and Pisces (Jupiterian beings) separately to evaluate this.
Sagittarius is often pinpointed as an optimist. The Law of Attraction states that you attract what you think. Therefore, an optimistic Sagittarius will only attract good things to their life, appearing “lucky” to the outside world. In addition, many great philosophers (Philosophy is a Jupiterian subject) followed this law and believed in it.
Pisces, on the other hand, attracts fortune through fantasy. A Sagittarius will simply expect or hope for the best while a Pisces will fantasize about what they wish would happen/be happening. This channel of thought enforces the Law of Attraction and gives a Piscean what they desire. This ease of manifestation is also why Pisces may easily bring their own self-undoing. Pisceans are known to soak up emotions that are around them. Once this gets into their head and messes up their thoughts, then undesirable events happen; this chain of events falls within the Law of Attraction.
Of course, at the end of the day, Pisceans are still under the care of Neptune: a guide who will release Pisces to the clouds without a tie to bring them back to reality. This could be the difference in how Pisces and Sagittarius experience luck. Sagittarius is very grounded and eager to learn as well as initiate action while Pisces is busy dancing in the clouds.

I commonly see people get very confused about how placements function and I’m gonna say it again
Sign = traits
House = area of life
Aspects = connections between two things
One does not change the other, having an 8th house something doesn’t magically equate it to being like a Scorpio placement! They all function differently, and whilst overlaps in manifestation exist, they are different and those details should be noted! If you feel drawn to a sign, house or aspect, there will be another reason in your chart! Attempting to force these things into the same box only sheds off the details and proper meanings of each thing!
Cancer risings and Leo risings naturally have a certain glow or shine to them since both are the only signs ruled by luminaries. The Moon belonging to and ruling over a Cancer rising and the Sun belonging to and ruling over Leo rising.
Cancer rising is the moonlight and Leo rising the sunlight.
