    I’m not very fond of having Pisces on the 10th (with Aries intercepted inside the 10th, Pluto Conjunct the IC at 1Libra, Uranus coming to Conjunct my MC Pisces at 26, progressed Mars on my IC, natal Venus sextile MC, midpoint of my MC and Asc conjunct my natal Sun, rulers of the MC, Neptune in the 5th and Jupiter in the 8th.) I’ve picked up a certain set of skills to adjust to it, but it’s not the “direct” lifestyle American culture appreciates. It’s very drifty. With progressed Mars and natal Uranus coming to my MC this year, I think I may go to religious school and learn Raja Yoga at Ananda University, next year, though. If I can get my finances in order. *shakes fist at Neptune*

      That sounds really difficult. I would guess that Uranus conjunct your MC will result in a sudden, and possibly unexpected, shift in your career ambitions or in your public image or reputation. Pluto on the IC is one of those placements that makes me feel a great deal of sympathy for the native. I can only imagine what it’s like to have Pluto on the IC natally- I’ve had Pluto transiting my 4th house for something like 10 years now and I can’t wait till it’s over. Pisces on the 10th is a tenuous position. The 10th is an ambitious house but Pisces is not an ambitious sign- it takes some strong placements elsewhere to make it work.

        I definitely wasn’t born with the “ambition gene.” I think Pluto on the IC tags well with being born without a father, and also with nearly dying at birth (both myself and my mother.) I think you’re right about Uranus, or at least I hope you are! :)

    Is it possible for Pisces to rule 3 of my houses? I have Neptune in the 1st house, loosely conjunct the Asc, Pisces is split between my 2nd & 3rd house, with Pisces Moon in the 3rd House. I tend to not look at my bank account until I “feel” myself getting close to the end of my line, lol..I’m usually right too! As soon as I learned how to read books have been my little slice of heaven, and I won’t leave a library for ages…checking out books even if I know I can’t read them all is nothing short of orgasmic. I love fiction, mostly historical, fantasy, definitely astrology, mysticism, spirituality, tarot, meditation, past lives, healing etc etc. I love the sea, the ocean, bodies of water calm me down instantaneously. I love photography and wouldn’t mind continuing taking classes in it. I wish I was a musician, I guess it’s never too late to learn. But definitely want to get my hands more dirty in the arts, namely pottery, photography, & stained glass making. I’m training to become more intuitive, don’t know if I want to make money from that…that’s more like a personal tool to use for those who may need it from me.

    “The ability to see the interconnectedness of everything” That’s definitely me. Head in the clouds…sure. Great visualization…usually choreographing a dance to the song that’s currently playing on my ipod. Lol.

      It is possible to have 3 cusps covered by one sign. And, if Neptune conjuncts your Ascendant, then you probably can relate to the 1st house description. I have Neptune in the 4th and find many of the Pisces/4th house characteristics to be relevant.
      Thank you for reminding me about dance. I don’t know why but I always forget about Pisces and dance, and it’s such an obvious connection.

    Pisces 2nd here and I choked on my drink in agreement with my husbands 6th House – you know, the messy house routine and the daily self pity lol at least we joke about the last one and thank goodness I have some sensibility aspects re: cashflow or we would both be DOOMED! But, money has never been a motivator with my 2nd house, just so long as we survive, I’m happy :)

    • http://astrofix.net/ Michelle

      lol :D I would not expect money to be a motivating factor with Pisces on the 2nd unless there were placements that suggested otherwise.

      I think the 6th house is a good indicator of daily habits. The “daily habit” aspect of the 6th house tends to get glossed over most of the time as if it doesn’t matter- but it does. What we do every day has more affect on our lives than the things we do every so often.

      Speaking of which, I wanted to put daily exercise habits into the 6th but, “exercise” tends to be put into the 5th. It seems to me that exercise as a habit should be a 6th house activity, while exercise as a sport is a 5th house activity.

        Well I always assess the 6th as an attitude to health and fitness, as you state here, it is a clear indicator of one’s daily habits!

        I do love the 6th House Pisces, it is a really sweet placement and some of the ‘psychic input, is mind blowing, but not so nice if wronged :O It really takes that ‘dead to me’ attitude of the Piscean to the inth degree.

        • http://astrofix.net/ Michelle

          I guess I haven’t read “fitness” mentioned much in terms of the 6th- usually a description will read that the 6th represents “health and diet” but not so much “physical fitness.”

          • Anonymous

            True but we really do have to adjust to modern day living, not many of us have the luxury of assessing our 6th house to see how the servants will behave and we have the obesity/fitness concern in the now…etc etc it works just fine.

    Very good Michelle. Pisces in the first here. I can be a bit of a bum at home, but def dress nice or at very least descent when i go out into the public. Don’t use drugs or alcohol, but am addicted to the computer, lol. I am aware of tendencies, so i try to guard against negative behavior, but a lot of the rest of what you listed is/can be true.

    • http://astrofix.net/ Michelle

      I definitely don’t think that all Pisces risings are sloppy drug addicts, but those traits are possibilities. I think that most Pisces risings approach the world in a sensitive and compassionate way. Thank you for the retweets Watergirl :D

    I’m Pisces rising and have trouble with saying “no.” In my earlier years, I got involved with the remnants of the hippie scene here in San Francisco. I consider myself sensitive but sometimes blur what others are feeling with what I’m actually feeling. I’ve done a fair amount of therapy around this, and use flower essences and evolutionary astrology (because I am an evolutionary astrologer) in addition. My Pisces rising has taught me to trust my intuition first and foremost…and to take care of my own needs first before sacrificing to others.

    • http://astrofix.net/ Michelle

      It’s great that you’ve been able to work with the Pisces energy and come to an understanding of it. I use flower essences almost daily- they’re wonderful.

      Thank you for reading my blog Joyce :D

    Pisces in the 2nd = Self-transcendence through purchases. LOLOLOL!!! Validation! (You crack me up.)

    • http://astrofix.net/ Michelle

      Lol, I’m glad you liked it :D

  • Mert

    wooow, pisces in 1st… many of it is true but there is nothing good there ….. still i agree the rest but “slob” i dont disagree….

    well despite all cons of pisces in 1th, world without a pisces is like a world without spirituality.

  • AriesGirl

    Pisces DC here… I long for unconditional love and deep bounding on a soul level…
    And I have Mercury in the 7th, so I hope that my partner will be more like a best friend than a lover.

    Some other keywords about Pisces 7th house
    - wanting to be with someone unavailable
    - long distance relationship
    - partner from a far away country
    - platonic type of relationship
    - co-dependent relationship

    • Michelle

      wanting to be with someone unavailable- long distance relationship- partner from a far away country
      - platonic type of relationship- co-dependent relationshipI think there might have to be a tie-in with Jupiter, Sagittarius or the 9th house for 2 and 3.

  • Stawr

    I also have Pisces house 10…for the most part, doesn’t sound fun…I have Venus here.

    • Michelle

      These posts represent only a small portion of the available possibilities. Steven Spielberg has Pisces 10th house – seems like he’s having fun to me.

      • Stawr

        thanks, I feel better.

    So I guess with my sidereal chart fixed then I have a full and normal correspondent house in sign (1st house Aries-12th Pisces) not loopsided like before Taurus Asc.
    And now..I have 12th house in 28 degree Pisces. Hmm…Lady Gaga was a mermaid in You and I mv. She’s also a virginal corn in the same video.
    Only me can read the subliminal message ^^

    And I have to say goodbye to Venus as my ruler of the chart, welcome Mars. It’s been fun years fooling around with Tropical .

    But I heard 28 degree is Venus exaltion degree in Pisces. Thank God!

      It’s hard for me to imagine you with Aries rising.

    I’ve noticed a rather interesting thing…

    I don’t know if my observation is that new, but I’d like to share it – maybe some of you will check it out and tell me whether it works in your case!

    The fact is, when I replace “sign in the house” with “house ruler in the sign”, I get almost the same picture,  reflecting  the most things Michelle is writing about!

    For instance, my 8th house is in Taurus, so the description of the 8th house in Taurus suits me quite well  – but since its ruler Venus is in Pisces, the text about the 8th house in Pisces suits me too!!! =O  :)

    Or another example – my Ascendant is in Libra, but again, with Venus in Pisces I also relate to the description of the 1st house in Pisces to a great degree! It’s astonishing!!! 

    My 5th house is in Pisces,  its rulers Jupiter and Neptune are both in Sagittarius – and what do you think?!
    The article about the 5th house in Sagittarius describes me amazingly precise! 
    Since my childhood I’ve been (almost exclusively) falling in love with people of foreign cultures and from distant places! Later, I traveled abroad to reunite with my love who is a Sagittarius! And somehow,  I’ve always found humor in love and romance, even in the most difficult and dramatic situations… For example, I used to write goofy satirical poems about the objects of my unrequited love, and it was a great therapy! ;-)

    So I think if we take a look at the house ruler in the sign it can add a lot of interesting nuances to the description of the “mere” sign in the house! :-D 

    And maybe I’m digging too deep, but I think it’s fascinating how complex and full of different layers a single horoscope can be! ;-)

    • http://astrofix.net/ Michelle

      It’s an interesting idea but I’m not sure if it would work all the time. It seems a bit convoluted to me. Did you find that this method worked for all of your placements?

  • http://astrofix.net/ Michelle

    Another variation of house in sign would be to switch the placements for planet in sign. For example,  Pisces in the 5th house and Neptune (or Jupiter) in the 5th house would be similar; or, ascendant in Libra and Venus in the 1st house would be similar.
