Pisces Zodiac Sign: Dates and Meaning

Pisces dates in astrology are typically February 19 to March 20. If your birthday falls in this date range, you mostly likely have a Pisces Sun sign. Although Pisces horoscope birth dates can change depending on the year, these are typically the Pisces calendar dates.

For about 30 days each year, the Sun travels through the part of the zodiac occupied by Pisces. February 19 to March 20 is typically the Pisces birth date range. Some years, the Pisces start date will be as early as February 17 or February 18, or the Pisces end date will fall on March 19.

Pisces is the twelfth and final sign of the zodiac, which contains 12 signs in total. The Pisces star sign is a sensitive water sign (element) and an adaptable mutable sign (quality). As the only mutable water sign in the zodiac, Pisces people are compassionate, accommodating and can even be emotional sponges. This is one of the most imaginative and artistic signs with many empaths among its ranks. However, Pisces can be SO ethereal that they’re hard to pin down. If you date a Pisces, know that they need a degree of privacy and solitude, which can drive up insecurities and suspicions…especially since the zodiac’s Fish can be slippery and hard to catch.

The constellations have shifted. Is there a different Pisces birth date range now?

Periodically, astronomers will announce “breaking news” that horoscopes aren’t accurate because the constellations have shifted. Or they will announce is a 13th zodiac sign, citing the constellation Ophiucus and claiming that the horoscope dates for Pisces (and every other sign) have changed.

Here’s an interesting bit of clarification between astronomy and astrology. The actual constellations have shifted over the ages, but astrology follows a different system, which uses “artificial” constellations. Rather than following the movement of the visible stars, Western astrology is based on the apparent path of the Sun as seen from our vantage point on earth. Within that path, astrologers have carved out static zones, and we track the planetary movements against these. That is why Pisces dates remain the same even as the heavens keep shifting.

In second century Alexandria, the great mathematician and astronomer/astrologer Ptolemy created the Tropical Zodiac, which is a fixed system that is not affected by changes in the constellations or the Earth’s axis. Ptolemy used the same names for the zodiac signs as he did for the constellations, which is why there is confusion around the Pisces birth date range. The Tropical Zodiac is static and not affected by shifts in the Earth’s axis. It begins every year with the Aries pseudo-constellation, which is based on the position of the Sun at the spring equinox on March 21.

Top 4 Dumbest Zodiac Signs According To Astrology

Pisces Zodiac Sign: Personal Traits

Smart, creative, and deeply intuitive, Pisces can be close to psychic. Pisces feel things deeply, and have incredibly strong gut reactions. A Pisces "knows" things from deep within, and can often judge whether a person or situation is good or bad. That doesn't mean a Pisces ignores the logical part of their brain, though. Deeply intelligent, Pisces have a profound respect for the power of the human mind. Is it a surprise that Albert Einstein was a Pisces?

Pisces signs are sensitive, and get along well in small groups of people. Sometimes, a Pisces may feel like they have an internal and external self, and they may need to spend a lot of time solo to recalibrate those two halves of themselves. A Pisces is rarely lonely when they are by themselves, and have an active imagination. Creative, Pisces love spending time reading, exploring or creating art or music, and understanding their emotions through art.

Pisces are amazing! Their name says it all:

P for psychic

I for intelligent

S for surprising

C for creative

E for emotionally-driven

S for sensitive

Those with the Pisces sign may seem quiet but they are incredibly strong and have a very strong sense of right and wrong. Their moral compass, along with their gut, guides them well. When a Pisces speaks up, people listen. Pisces tend to take in everything around them, and they are great people to ask for advice on pretty much anything. While Pisces has strong convictions about the best way for them to live, they have a "live and let live" approach when it comes to others, and are accepting and nonjudgmental of all.

Pisces Zodiac Sign: Man Traits

Pisces men are extremely creative. They channel their emotions into painting, writing, and dancing in order to create beautiful art. Although they enjoy being around people, they also enjoy their privacy. Spending time alone gives them the chance to explore their feelings. Art gives them an outlet to be vulnerable, which is perfect because their feelings demand to be expressed.

Pisces men are generous. They care more about others than they care about themselves. These men are willing to sacrifice their own happiness in order to make someone else smile. They rarely treat themselves as a priority or engage in self-care. They’re too busy worrying about the people around them to put effort into themselves. Pisces are too sweet for their own good.

Many Pisces men are moody. They think with their hearts instead of their heads. When they’re hurt, they take a long time to get over the pain. They might say they forgive the other person, but they will dwell in their bad feelings. Pisces secretly hold grudges for long periods of time because they can’t get over their broken hearts. They have a hard time planning for the future because they think more about the past.

Top 5 Weakest Zodiac Signs According to Astrology

Pisces Zodiac Sign: Woman Traits

Pisces women are surprisingly closed-off. Although they love taking care of others, they never let anyone take care of them. They struggle to accept help from the people who love them. Pisces don’t like sharing their problems with the world. They pretend they’re fine, even when they’re suffering inside. This zodiac sign loves being around people, but they consider themselves independent. They don’t need anyone else to survive.

Pisces women are indecisive and lazy. Although they’re dreamers with huge goals, they don’t work toward those goals. They would rather daydream about an imaginary future than take steps to create that future. Pisces women enjoy escapism because it gives them a chance to forget about their own problems. They would rather live in a dream world than in the real world.

Pisces women are too trusting. They see the best in everyone, so they get taken advantage of easily. Pisces women are gullible. They never realize when someone is lying to them or betraying them. Even once they find out someone has been acting inappropriately, they will forgive and forget. Pisces women give out a million chances. They settle for less than they deserve because they’re too kind.

Pisces are the sweetest sign of the zodiac. They would do anything for their family and friends. Pisces aren’t going to leave anyone hanging. Pisces offer help to anyone who needs it. They will drop everything when someone calls them. Pisces women are nurtures. They want to make sure everyone is having a good time. If they see someone crying, they’ll be sad, too. Other people’s emotions rub off on them. It’s in their nature to feel deeply.
