Hello Eric
I just read the birthday report for late Pisces birthdays
and I got to thinking it sounds a lot like the advice I have been reading for
Virgo. Are there similarities due to them being opposite signs? What are the
similarities and differences? I have many Pisces in my life, sisters and a male
friend. My male friend's brother, who has the same birthday as me but two years
before, married a Pisces (they have since divorced). Anyways I am curious...
are the changes in both signs similar at this astrological sign? I appreciate
the ability to read your ideas. I am a huge J. Cainer and E. Francis fan. :-)
Thank you... Cheryl
Dear Cheryl
You've noticed something that's at once obvious and subtle
about astrology: opposite signs have a lot in common, and astrologers will work
with these similarities. And it's very common that people with a strong sign
placement will draw a lot of the opposite sign into their lives.
However, you were also reading Pisces birthday reports
during a time when the ruler of Virgo was retrograde in its opposite sign,
Pisces. So that was providing plenty of room for overlapping themes, since in
many respects Pisces and Virgo have been fully merged for a few months.
However, these two signs can seem strikingly similar, even to the oddest
details, until you get far enough below the surface to see that Pisces really
is Pisces and Virgo really is Virgo.
