As a result of being easily influenced, taking action or fulfilling desires gets blurred. Whose actions and whose desires take precedence? The difficulty with decision-making is symbolized by the two attached fishes swimming in opposite directions. Although the typical Piscean may seem to lack of self-confidence, in their own quiet way they can accomplish a great deal, though first they need to overcome the desire to escape from anything that is difficult. Pisces is the dreamer of the zodiac and the Piscean energy is compassionate, tolerant, kind and loving. Creative, imaginative, spiritual and often mystical, at times you can be indolent and impractical. Charming and likable, they are good to those in distress and are fond of animals.
