How
to Treat your Pisces |
|
|
|
 The
Pisces gives love constantly. The moment you withhold love from your
Pisces, or treat your Pisces even a little bit harshly, you've opened
the door to great sadness . Pisceans don't understand cruelty - even
if it comes unwittingly from them. And the sensitive nature of Pisces
makes him susceptible to great hurt. If you want to keep him around,
be aware of your words and actions, and your Pisces' reaction to
them. If he slinks off and hides, you know there's some serious
heartache going on!
The
Pisces needs compassion, water, creative or spiritual surroundings,
an atmosphere of peace and calm, and ample opportunities to show off
her many talents and ideas. Pisces loves to learn, and needs to be
provided with information and ideas to help keep the creative juices flowing.
So
be sure to provide your Pisces with imaginative, uplifting and
beautiful entertainment. Don't overwhelm her with frightening images
such as one might see in a violent movie. Pisces would rather not
dwell on such things, and is much healthier when exposed to natural,
peaceful or spiritual imagery.
Feed
your Pisces with love and kindness, a sincere interest in his many
dreams and ideals, respect for her creations, quiet, secluded
outings, romantic conversation and your own spiritual idealism.
Wake
your sleepy, dreamy night-fish up in the morning, help your Pisces
find the way in crowded places, guide him through confusing times and
hold her hand while crossing the street. You will be rewarded with a
sweet, gentle and unconditional love.

How
to Treat your Aries |
|
|
|
 Your
Aries is a highly intuitive, fiery, fast-acting, independent person
who needs freedom above all. Aries people can stand alone in the
world, and take pride in their ability to go through life without
leaning on others. They always have a plan of action. If your Aries
is not moving fast physically, you can be sure that mind is brimming
with ideas. For Aries, the head is what it's all about, and Aries
wants to put every idea into motion.
Let
your Aries know how wonderful and special she/he is. In spite of
that bold, confident appearance, or perhaps because of it, Aries can
be somewhat the loner and not get support when needed. Also, your
Aries may never feel truly complete or accomplished at anything
because of the high standards he sets for himself. So, feed him with
praise to boost his ego, and offer your loving encouragement to fan
her passionate fire. Then, allow your Aries to follow those dreams,
and offer helpful pointers and solutions wherever needed. You might
feel invisible and unappreciated, but don't despair. Your Aries feels
as if you are a part of her, and so may not understand the need to
show gratitude. Just notice the way she glows inside when you give
your advice, or the loving looks he gives you, and his determination
to do even more. To Aries, this is the biggest thank you of all.
Most
importantly, do everything possible to make your Aries feel
unfettered. Like all fire signs, Aries can't stand to be led around
or confined - unless as a means to an end. Let your Aries come up
with the idea first, if possible. Otherwise, if you want your Aries
to do something, ask gently! Your Aries has a passionate heart and
the best of intentions, yet is a very sensitive, instinctual and
intuitive individual. Your thoughtful love will be rewarded with
heroic efforts and a proud devotion to your needs.

The
Hanged Man in the Tarot |
|
|
|
 The
Hanged Man is associated with the Water Element in the Tarot, and
presents a theme that closely resonates with Pisces
~
Sacrifice ~ I love the way this card shows a cat, softly resting
on the Hanged Man's foot - as if to comfort him through his ordeal.
Is he being punished for something? The symbolism in this archetype
is rich and deep, and found in nearly every mythological and
religious tradition, yet this is one of the simplest cards to
interpret in a reading. Sacrifice... the Hanged Man is giving up
something dear to him, in this case maybe even his life. His reasons
can be many or few - but ultimately, he is letting go of certain
needs or desires in order to fulfill the needs of another, or group
of others.
This
is Martin Luther King going to jail for staging a sit- in, and
finally losing his life to further the cause of racial equality. This
is Jesus on the Cross - dying for our sins. This is Prometheus who is
punished by the gods for giving us fire. This is Ghandi - leading
countless others into deadly situations to make a stand for justice.
These heros KNEW they would be severely judged and punished. They
knew they would suffer, yet their sacrifices had immeasurable value
for those higher values they served - and they found the strength to
go through with great pain in order to change the world.
We
can see the shadow of the Hanged man in the alcoholic who gives up
drinking to save her marriage, the entertainer who puts his career on
the line to stand up for a cause, the mother who gives birth, and
gives up work to be with her child, or conversely - who is forced to
give up time with her child in order to feed her family.
The
artist who gives up a nurturing relationship in order to fulfill his
creative drive is sacrificing basic needs in order to make his mark
in the world. Then - when he turns around and gives up his creativity
to be with loved ones, he is sacrificing once again!
The
Hanged Man shows up whenever we stop what we're doing to attend to
the needs of someone else, and especially when it is painful to give
up that necessity, basic drive or comfort. In many ways, he is the
exact opposite of the Devil - who serves only his own selfish needs.
This archetype represents the power within us to completely surrender
some part of self in order to fulfill what we perceive as something
greater, or at least temporarily more important. The Devil gives up
his soul for some material gain, and the Hanged Man gives up some
material gain for his soul. Ultimately, who do you think wins?
Certainly the Hanged Man - because he spurns the fleeting comforts of
human existence - knowing that our souls go on forever.
The
Hanged Man has a cause very dear to his heart, and essential to his
soul purpose and evolution. He may be a martyr, but he'll never tell
you that. He doesn't look for pity - only understanding and love.

Mewsings
from Venus & Mars... March 2007 |
|
 |
|
Venus
in Aries - Feb.22 - Mar.18 is straight- forward, bold and
impulsive in love. She may be outspoken, somewhat restless, and
expect to get her way.
Mars
in Aquarius - Feb, 26 - Apr. 6 does well Venus in Aries (til
Mar.18) This combination is inspired to action and ready for
adventure and new ideas! Mars in Aquarius may bring unpredictable,
rash behaviour in men (or women). While great things can be
accomplished, some may wish to go too far. Take good care of each
other - remind your risk-taker to be careful!
Venus
in Taurus - Mar.18 - Apr.12 is sensual and sweet, romantic and
desirous of touching and pampering. With Mars in Aquarius, he can do
much to keep her interested by using his imagination, and surprising
her! She may be more likely to respond to those little touches that
bring warmth, comfort and beauty to her surroundings.
