Pisces, you are the dream weavers of the zodiac. 

Extremely sensitive and compassionate you either champion those less fortunate or run to escape from the pain you feel around you. From spiritual leaders, artists and psychics to drug addicts and alcoholics, you can reach the heights of heaven or the depths of depravity.

You often live in an idealistic world and create interesting fantasies which can become your career. You are the creators of the phrase "...and they lived happily ever after."

You seldom seek to be seen and praised although you secretly desire recognition. Water is essential to your health and you should not only drink plenty of it but you are happiest if you live near water. Baths can also restore your health emotionally and physically.

Occupations in which you excel include: photographer, pharmacist, warden, scuba diver, underwater photographer, religious or spiritual leader, poet, fantasy writer, dream analyst, drug and alcohol counselor, artist, cartoonist, actor, videographer, dark room technician and creator of props.

Aquarius, you're the opinionated humanitarians who carry around a soapbox to lecture to the world.
