So Pluto entering the 11th House of groups, friends and aims and ideals. Pisces is a wonderfully open sign: for better or for worse, you are able to empathise with and trust just about everybody. Pluto reveals the shadow side of whatever it touches. And if you are naïve about people, you will be betrayed, you will be taken advantage of. As a Pisces you want to love the whole world, and maybe you do, but appropriate mistrust does not contradict this. Yes, give people the benefit of the doubt: but sometimes there is no doubt to give people the benefit of. Some people are nasty and not to be trusted, period. (This is also a Libran lesson). Thinking critically about people does not make you bad or hard-hearted.As a Pisces you can attract friends or groups with whom you have a deep soul connection. Pluto’s dark lessons can lead you to a point where you know who your friends are, who you can work with, and who to be circumspect with.
This also applies to aims and ideals: as a Pisces you can launch into something that feels good, without quite knowing where it is going or weighing it up coolly. Again, Pluto will pull the rug from under your feet. As a Pisces you know that everything can’t be worked out in advance, but you need to learn to trust in grounded and sharp intuition that can be trusted, rather than a woolly feelgood factor that has maybe been generated by someone else. So your aims and ideals tend to be felt rather than articulated: but discrimination on that level is still needed.
Neptune is very comfortable in your Solar 12th, his natural home, where he has been for the last 10 years. During this period you have become increasingly attuned to the spirit of the times, to collective desires and needs, to a sense of being part of something much larger than yourself, as well as to your own unconscious, your hidden depths. At the same time, your capacity for escapism and self-delusion has been revealed to you. With Neptune 10 years into his journey, you have probably begun to get a handle on this.Uranus is in your 1st House, not the easiest house for you: you prefer to attract life and events towards you, rather than engage and express yourself directly. So Uranus has been showing you how to do this. How does the Invisible Man get himself noticed? How do you create an identity for yourself through which to live? Who ARE you? You have a tendency to become whatever the people and circumstances around you require, you can appear to be seamlessly part of whatever is going on. Uranus, however, has been putting a spanner in the works, because he wants individuality from you, he can’t bear conformity for its own sake. The very Piscean Gordon Brown has had this: he is now the UK Prime Minister, people need a sense of who he is, it is no longer enough for him to be running the Treasury behind the scenes, while plotting against Tony Blair. He is uncomfortable and awkward in the spotlight, but it is forcing him to reveal who he is.
Saturn is in your 7th House of significant relationships, which has a similar lesson: is anybody in? He is in your opposite sign of Virgo. So this provides a strong and healthy pull towards groundedness. It is the ocean (Pisces) encountering the shore (Saturn) and knowing itself by the shape of the coastline. Yes, you can roam the formless depths, but here through the shape of another you can find your own shape reflected back. It is not just you adapting to who and what is around you anymore. The responses and reactions of the significant others in your life will paint a picture of who you are, for it is you they are responding to.
Saturn is the bridge between the outer and inner planets, he makes all those transformative currents real, he gives them form in the world. So the challenge from Pluto to wise up about who you can trust, the challenge from Neptune to become aware of your self-delusion, the question from Uranus as to whether anyone is at home, can all be met in concrete form in your significant relationships, through staying the course, through assessing coolly whether these relationships are right for you, through being present, and through noting how people respond to you.

Thanks! I was wondering whether you were ever going to do Pisces...I guess one of my brethren got themselves motivated to actually ask :) Does this all hold true even for a late (30 degree) Pisces? An hour and a half later and I would've been an Aries!
You're probably a bit of both, aren't you? Which must be a bit schizophrenic with 2 such opposite signs?
Breaking News:
(apologies but this is a huge unmasking of just who Obama is)
...Obama intends to keep on the rogue Blackwater militia on the u.s. payroll, Clinton intends to outlaw them)

Jeremy Scahill's journalism can be trusted implicitly.
Yes, it is a bit schizo. Sometimes I feel like I have been on every cusp there is, in all areas of my life. Probably just a lesson in yin and ying and uncertainty.
Re: Obama - It figures.
Dharmaruci, seems a late cusper has developed the previous sign to it's fullest and dips a toe in the next. Perhaps the nn/sn come in handy here as to grounding focus.
since all signs tend to take on tendencies of the one opposite, maybe schiz comes from projections with arise from having say, virgo sun/pisces moon, or mercury in pisces whose ruler is gemini/virgo, or sn in virgo/pisces sun and vice versa.
I've always said one can't be a real healer of the body/mind until one has spent time on both sides of the desk. Or that the unconditional capacity for forgiveness pisces seems to possess grows up when they've had enough of the same disappointment and start loving themselves enough. Virgos tend to wear out their beaks with all that pecking.
When will u do VIRGO..for the next 2 years???
I am Virgo Sun Pisces Moon..Am I sciz?
Is that what you call it?
Interesting....
anonymous, hope you took no offense re the pisces/virgo thing.
Rather than the term schiz it seems more about walking a mile in the shoes of another and becoming vulnerable through experience. If we didn't have the dilemma of honing service and compassion, that is something that puts all of us at a critical juncture of "I feel ya man". We all have pisces/virgo in our charts that will put us in a position of one who serves and one who deserves kindness and there would be no consideration of other and how they feel.
I have a virgo client (pluto exactly conjunct his sun 9degrees)
with jupiter in pisces. He knocks himself out for others, thinks he doesn't deserve anything, has arthritis in his feet, yet will not make himself more comfortable by buying himself a good pair of boots to replace holey sopping sneakers in the Maine woods deep in snow and cold.
I have a sister ldegree virgo, moon in pisces but with a square of mars/uranus to both, is verbally abusive beyond belief yet sees herself as a sensitive saint.
It truly depends on how a person uses their energy and what types of placements comprise the zeitgeist of their chart. But with all of these, it seems to be about the development of conscience, without which we'd all be barbarians. I wouldn't ask to be virgo or pisces but where would we be without their powers of discrimination.
Buddy Miles(born 9-5-47)just passed away yesterday. Brilliant musician from the age of 11. He had the sun mercury and venus all in virgo...perfection if I may say so.
Hi from the one with 30 Pisces (the orig schizo - it would only let me post as anonymous the second time, weird). Anyway, even with being on the Pisces/Aries cusp I have a solid Sag ascendant and Cap moon (both 13 degrees) so maybe they help balance things out!
Let's forget the word schizo! But I agree about Cap moon. As for Sag ASC - I don't think solid is the word I'd use - questing, adventurous, optimistic yes. Where it would be good for Pisces is that Pisces can feel hopeless and despairing, but Sag always bounces back, it's optimistic. And Cap brings reality in.
Jeanine, then you have been the first on the block to experience pluto and mars squaring your sun.
Care to share your experience with that? For those of us standing in the shadow of the giant rooster?
OK yeah, maybe questing and adventurous is better to describe the Sag influence...I can get bogged down in hopelessness sometimes but usually manage to find the humor in things (even if it's a little twisted on occasion). And I have been having to work overtime on that with the Pluto and Mars squares. There's some pretty heavy family issues going on and some er, anger management on my part that I have to work at dealing with in a constructive fashion instead of sublimating it into those more traditional Piscean escapist pursuits, as it were :)
Ah yes Jeanine, I call them chemical vacations..only get one if it comes with an injury ha!
Are you talking about your family elders, siblings etc., or do you mean your husband and children.
Both my bio parents are sun/ mars/pluto all the way, even my landlord 0cancer has agression issues, and I myself try to hold my tongue. If he knew what I am preventing myself from expressing to him he might cry.
10 years of crude insulting little remarks.
I am at my wits end with bullies.
Even tho I'm 7aries, I fall back on my canadian-line manners just because I wish not to stoop to a certain level or 'hurt people's feelings'. I'm reconsidering that approach
Family elders mainly. Alot of change going on in all different areas...plus the nodal return factor (23 Aquarius/Leo) just means I have become well acquainted with the concept of nothing being constant but change. Not that I always handle it well, of course. And I hate hurting people's feelings as well...but sometimes it happens. There's a big difference between lashing out in anger and having to tell someone something you know will probably hurt them (no matter how compassionately expressed) but has to be said anyway.
