Hi, I'm Alice. And this is the discipline of freedom. Discipline of freedom as a space to explore, discover, and expand. Your relationship. To success and freedom and love life and work. Hold your center through change. And embody your power purposefully. Profitably. Playfully one month. One face. One breath at a time. Hi, everyone. It's Eilish. And today we're going to talk about Pisces and we're in Pisces season. Pisces is the dreamer, the enchanting poet of the Zodiac. The dreamers who swim and the cosmic CS. Bye. Bye. Swimming through those deep waters and I am a mermaid. It's not without its challenges. We're diving into the vast ocean of the Pisces archetype. Where dreams intertwine with reality and spirituality dances with intuition. I left Pisces. I have this constant argument in my head. Because I'm at 29 degrees Pisces, rhizome. And if I move just a moment, I go into Aries rhizome. So I'm straddling these two Between Pisces and Aries rhizome. And this is what paces is. It's the two fish that swimming in opposite directions. One of them wants to escape into the material, into the mystical, into the mystery. And the other one goes, Ooh, maybe we'll go back for another. Twirl around the Zodiac. So I resonate really deeply with Pisces and also I have my mercury there, um, which is how we use our intelligence. I have my Mars there. So there's a lot of Pisces energy and my hierarchy is in Pisces. So deeply, deeply Pisces. So they're known as the dreamers, I was brought up in Ireland and I was thought that you have to really respect the ocean. We used to say. A little prayer. We're diving into the ocean. And swimming through these deep waters is not without its challenges. Anybody who swims, particularly in the ocean knows just how quickly it can change. If you live in Australia, as I do, you're very conversant with. Rips and just how. And chanting and an trancing that couldn't be. But also how there's always this threat of danger. My favorite moment of my day is that moment that I dive between these worlds. It's like I dive into the ocean and I moved between two worlds. It's always just so magical and it never loses that magic for me. So prices journeys from the whimsical dream, which are the potential pitfall of self-sabotage. Finally emerging into the liberating waters of true spiritual transcendence. And this is the journey of the Zodiac each year. It's like, we start. With Aries, you know, and it's the toddler of the Zodiac and we. Walk through each sign. Through each house. And of course the houses are different for everybody depending on your rising time. And we come. To the maturity of Pisces. Pisces is the integration of the other 11. Signs. ANd it truly is mystical and magical. I mean, Pisces is obviously a water scientist, like it's super feeling and it's probably the most deeply feeling and the most deeply empathetic of all of the signs. So skillfully expressed. It embodies intuition, creativity. It's ruled by Neptune. And ruled by Jupiter. Jupiter is known as the It's, you know, it expands everything that it touches. And that brings us into the rooms of imagination. If we allow us. And its modern ruler is Neptune and Neptune is known as the planet of illusion and delusion. It's a king of the sea. Neptune. Once us to go into that space of imagination, it wants us to dream. It's asking us to continually dream a bigger dream. But we don't want to be caught in confusion, which is, you know, where often dreams can take us. We want to, uh, Marge. With some clarity we want to emerge. With the ability to realize that dream, um, the opposite of Pisces is vocal, which we'll talk about more later, but, you know, Virgo can get cussed and too caught in the perfectionism, the practicality. The allocation of resources. I mean, the problem with Virgo is that a can be caught in the linear and the logical. Um, and it's constantly asking, do we have that, you know, is this working? It can be. So focused on reality that it doesn't allow for the imaginal and paces of course, is the opposite. I mean, so focused on the imaginary that it loses the practicality and it loses touch with the world that you are. Adventuring in the worlds that you are walking through the world that you are creating. So. Skillfully expressed. We've got intuition. We've got creativity and profound connection to the mystical. Pacey hymns are the compassionate healers, the intuitive visionaries. They're the weavers of dreams into the fabric of reality. However, when I'm skillful, that can become lost in the illusions. Prone to self-sacrifice. They can be completely boundary-less. And so they give away their energy to everybody else and susceptible to the undercurrents of escapism. As Pisces and barks on their archetype of journey, they navigate the path from dreamer to self sabotage. To liberation. And we'll all go on this path and some area of our lives and some area of our charts. Self-sabotage is something that, Carla and miss talks about, you know, there's four archetypes that we all have. One is the child. There's the victim. The prostitute. and There's a sabot tour. So. They navigate this path. From self-sabotage to liberation by embracing the yamas and niyamas, which we spoke about in earlier episodes. So go back to, I think the first. Probably three or four episodes. Three words that have stayed with me since I was in my twenties. Beauty truth and lightness. Where there's beauty, we're always in the presence of love. Truth. Knowing that our truth can change at any moment. As soon as we have new information. And And I'm able to. Um, maintain a sense of lightness is always so important. It makes, it's kind of like. Being able to know that this too will pass. Being able to always go from a micro view to a macro view so you can change your perspective. Um, so you don't get weighed down by the hardship, by the wounds, by the suffering, by the horrible things that are always going on in the world. That you'll be able to bring some perspective to things. And notice that you're simply here. To have an experience. And you get to choose how you will experience your life. You get to choose your adventure. And transcending, this can be particularly difficult for a Piscean who feel everything they're super empathetic. They walk into the room and they feel the energy of the room. So it's really important for patients to learn, to protect their energy. So they realize what's theirs. And what's the others. Um, I use a a mark, a bar. To protect my energy. I'm going to, what you do is you create a triangle from the top of your head right down to your base, and then another triangle coming up from the ground. And you. Surround yourself with white light. So you keep what's yours. And you allow others to have theirs. And so that's a way of moving through the world in a way that's, you know, that you. Feel centered in yourself and you're able to hold your center no matter what's going on around you. Something that's super, super, super important for Piscean. So for Pisces not to get lost in the illusions, not to get lost in the escapism, not to get lost in self-sacrifice. Not to get lost in other people's. Suffering. But to really own your own journey. To own your own dream. And in this Pisces season, what's emerging. Is with each year. That you live through life, you dream a new dream, your dream evolves, your dream changes. You change your dream through new experiences, you're open to new parts of your imagination. And so what part of you is dreaming a dream that you couldn't have drempt before. This is. Pisces. Practicing the Sattia of truthfulness. Authenticity. And their dreams and their actions and through the new Yammer of, of tappers through discipline. And if anybody needs discipline. I see is the boundaryless. Need discipline. And the most important thing to remember that I'd like you to really kind of be able to feel into is this, is that. Discipline can become something that you love. When I first started studying Kundalini yoga. And they spoke about those who, obey will lead. I, always thought of people in uniform and the thought of them as sheep. I thought, oh, don't be ridiculous. Those who obey, like obey who, but it's about obeying yourself and learning. To love your discipline, learning to devote yourself to your discipline. And learning to channel. Your creative energies with purpose. And as I always say purposefully profitably and playfully. So you're in service of others, you know, really bringing that creative energy through in service for your contribution. So Natalie. Explore the experiences as a Pisces led brand naturally offers. It excels and creating experiences and products that tap into the realms of spirituality, intuition. And creative expression. So from really visionary theory, art Institute. Installations to intuitive coaching services. Pisces are the bridge between. The mystery and the mundane between the magical and the material. Between dreams and reality. First off, the rank is the mystic the mystical brand does into the mysteries of the unseen it's offering spiritual guidance, tower readings. And mystical experiences. Think of brands like, you know, mystic mama R um, mystic, Meg. Our Gaia, you know, so it's around. Bringing what's mystical and translating. So it can become practical and useful in your every day. Of course there's the visionary brand and this brand is a beacon of inspiration it's pulling in from the imagination. What are those can't yet? See it's guiding individuals towards their dreams and they Excel in industries like motivational speaking, life, coaching and intuitive entrepreneurship. Victoria Washington, Oprah Winfrey. These are prime examples of the visionary archetype. They can see what others can't yet to see, and we all need inspiration. And remember that inspiration is simply, that breath breathing through you. It's like breathing life into your. Into your world into your brand. The artist. So the artist brand of course channels, the band was creativity of Pisces. Offering products and experiences that evoke deep emotions that we can't always explain that we can't always articulate. And they transcend ordinary reality. They connect us to a deeper part of ourselves. To our soul. They connect emotionally. Um, Salvador Dali of course exemplifies the artist archetype as does Picasso. And of course, then there's the healer, the completely compassionate. Empathetic deeply committed to the wellbeing of others and who better to help other people heal. Then those who've suffered to themselves. And very often. Pisces. You know, the victim. It's very often in that feeling so deeply that feeling that you have to save the world. Feeling the suffering of others. So offering services that promote emotional and spiritual healing. It's the Christ archetype essentially. You know, Seeing others in their pain and wanting to have wellness practitioners, energy healers, and holistic therapists, often a body, the healer archetype. And of course there's many, many products out there that are devoted to this. More and more in, the food industry. In, the One's in supplements. All of that. So emotionally Pisces evokes feelings of empathy, compassion. And a deep sense of connection to the unseen. Colors of course associated with Pisces are gentle. See greens, soothing blues. And iridescent Hughes that mirror, the shimmering scales of the Piscean fish. In terms of sounds. It resonates with the gentle lapping of water. Waves coming onto the shore, and the soothing hum. Of crystal bowls. The smell of calming incense encapsulates the Piscean atmosphere. It's always going to be soft feeling. Fostering an environment of tranquility and spiritual exploration. It really is about the meeting of the two worlds. Recognizing Pisces archetypes in your personal and professional relationships is like diving into a gentle wave in the ocean. They are the friends who offer listening ear, the partners who intuitively understand your needs. And the colleagues who infuse creativity into every project. Pisces will expand the conversation and move it into another room. And they do this so naturally. Um, they are called the poets of Zodiac. So in the business world. Pisces archetypes are perceived as intuitive, creative. And emotionally intelligent individuals. Because they're feeling all the energy, like they're really soaking up. Everybody's energy. And it's so important. If you are a Paicey in our view, strong Piscean energy, where you have strong bytes and energy in your chart. To really protect your energy. To be really clear what's yours and what's the others. So they attract clients who seek a deeper connection to their inner selves and are drawn to experiences that transcend the mundane. Ideal clients for prices brand are Virgos. And these are not just Virgo. Songs are moons are rising signs. These are. Vargo qualities like so far. Good quality is analytical. It's perfectionist. It's very logical. It can be super rational. It is the Sage. But it can be so caught in its own head. Remember, Virgo is ruled by mercury. That it wants. It's seeking to balance their analytical minds with the soulful insights and the flow. That is so natural to Pisces. So when we look at the Tyro. Associated with Pisces. We see the moon card and embodies the essence of Pisces representing intuition flow emotions. The subconscious and the ever changing tides of emotion. Remember this. You know, wherever the moon is in your chart, that this is like your feeling nature. It's your conditioning. It's what are your needs? I always say that if you were. Moon isn't fulfilled and looks. To the house that your moon is in. To know how you need those needs fulfilled. It's kind of like the languages of love. So the moon. From myself, the moon is central in my daily practice. Working with prevailing themes and the topics. Each month, each phase. Each breath. We're presently in Pisces seasons, as I've mentioned before. So are you feeling more dreamy than you normally do? Like are you feeling kind of more. Taken by. The energies of what's going on, then you normally would Pisces wants you to dream a new dream, a dream. You could not have dreamed before. As the last Sunday of the Zodiac, it's torn between escaping fully into the mystical and magical. And bringing that dream and vision to earth. When the astrological new year begins with Aries. So in myth. The story of the egg that fell into the Euphrates river and rode to show her by fish. Encapsulates the Pisces archetype. Dove's came and they sat on the egg until it hatched. And from this egg Aphrodite, a merged. And as a sign of gratitude towards the fish Aphrodite. Put the fish into the Knights guy, the egg symbolizes the potential for creation. For floating in the cosmic waters of inspiration and imagination. Remember, it's ruled by Neptune. Pisces opposite sign is Virgo. That liked to gather data so it can diagnose and analyze and allocate resources, which is time, attention, money. Thoughts people to realize the pace is stream. What you imagine. Now you can realize by the Pisces full moon in Virgo, which will come in August this year. So for Pisces, the hero's journey is a mystical exploration of the inner self. Navigating the depths of their emotions and emerging. With new found wisdom and compassion. So many actors are Pisces. Because it can just really deeply feel into whatever the role it is that they are to play. And so to fully immerse yourself in the Pisces essence, surround yourself in environments that promote creativity and spiritual exploration. Art galleries are perfect. A yoga meditation retreat. And as you journey through the mystical waters. Let these words by an alien in just wash over you. Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again. And this interdependence. Produces the highest form of living. Thank you for swimming with me through the depths of the Pisces archetype. And until our paths cross again, may your dreams. We vivid.
