Meena · Pair of fish

Pisces

The mystic — intuitive, dissolving, spiritually receptive.

Meena is ruled by Jupiter (in its watery, mystical aspect) and embodies the principle of dissolution, devotion, and the soul's return to its source. Pisces natives are intuitive, spiritually receptive, artistic, and prone to dissolving the boundaries between self and other. Venus is exalted here at 27° — the planet of love finds its most transcendent expression in compassionate, all-embracing Pisces. The sign rules the feet — where the body meets the earth and the journey begins or ends. As the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces carries the residue of all that came before.

As ascendant (Pisces Lagna)

Pisces rising gives a soft, dreamy, often beautiful appearance with luminous eyes. Jupiter becomes the most important planet. Spiritual life, art, healing, or service to those who suffer are typically central.
