The Latin term for “fishes” is “pisces.” The two fish first appeared on an Egyptian coffin lid around 2300 BC, making it one of the oldest zodiac signs known.
Pisces depicts the fish, sometimes portrayed by a shark, into which Aphrodite (also known as Venus) and her son Eros (also known as Cupid) turned in order to flee the demon Typhon, according to one Greek tale. Gaia had sent Typhon, the “father of all monsters,” to attack the gods, prompting Pan to warn the others before transforming into a goat-fish and diving into the Euphrates. In Manilius’ five-volume lyrical work Astronomica, a similar narrative, in which the fish “Pisces” save Aphrodite and her son from danger, is retold: “Venus ow’d her safety to their Shape.” Another urban legend claims that an egg landed in the Euphrates River. The fish then rolled it to the shore. Doves sat on the egg until it hatched, and Aphrodite emerged. Aphrodite threw the fish into the starry sky as a gesture of thanks to the fish. The constellation Pisces was also known as “Venus et Cupido,” “Venus Syria with Cupidine,” “Venus cum Adone,” “Dione,” and “Veneris Mater,” the latter being the formal Latin name for mother, due to these traditions.
The Greek myth of Pisces’ genesis has been highlighted by English astrologer Richard James Morrison as an example of myths that emerged from the original astrological teaching, and that the “original aim ofwas thereafter distorted both by poets and priests.”

What are the zodiac signs’ ages?
Hello, lovely individuals! Are you ready for a little Chart Harmony with The Astrologer’s Daughter? Yay!
Yes, indeed, baby! Each zodiac sign has an age range linked with it, and we’re going to lay it all out right now. Let’s start with Aries and work our way through the zodiac, sign by sign, to grasp the spiritual age.
Aries: 17 is a time when everything is brand fresh. Have you ever watched a puppy for the first time discover EVERYTHING? Welcome to the Aries’ impetuous, exuberant, no-emotion-left-unspoken childhood joy. Lack of familiarity with something does not imply a lack of confidence in trying something new! Isn’t that how we learn?
7-14 Taurus
When everything that belongs to me is mine. Consider the adolescent who must learn to share after finally declaring what is vital to them to keep in the first place. This is how Taurus feels. Pleasures of the earth. Material goods are acquired. Sharing takes time.
When I do what I want when I want, I’m a Gemini. Isn’t this when people truly declare their individuality? It’s time to take a stand. It’s time to show up in the world in whichever way seems appropriate to you. It’s okay to doubt yourself at first, but you’ll eventually find yourself. It’s time to find your voice and use it. Gemini, Gemini, Gemini, Gemini, Gemini, Gemini, Gemini, Gemini
Cancer: 2128, when I discover who I truly am. Age 28 Epiphany, you’ve arrived just in time. Cancers are all about finding their place in the world, choosing loyalties (maybe abandoning biological family in favor of a new family), and feeling comfortable in their own skin (or shell).
Leo: 2835when I couldn’t care less what you think of me. It’s all about “take it or leave it for the Leo mood” after the Age 28 epiphany. I’m who I’m supposed to be. There’s no denying what feels wonderful in the way Leos express themselves, and they make no apologies for it.
3542 Virgo
When duty takes precedence over want. The Virgo is delighted to show up every day to perform the detail work required to create stability in life, just like the worker bee who knows it’s time to make adult choices, plan for the future, and provide for the family.
When collaboration reigns supreme, Libra: 4249. At this age, you realize that you’re stronger together than you are alone. Enough to realize that pairing isn’t a sacrifice. Libra enjoys a good +1 and isn’t as concerned with the glitz and glam that younger signs crave in a relationship.
When the midlife crisis strikes, Scorpio is 4956. Scorpios may feel impotent in the face of life’s larger picture. They understand that time is a figment of their imagination, and they seek simple, unadulterated pleasure to help them cope with the stress of their existential crisis.
5663 Sagittarius
when the big picture becomes clear You know how it feels when you’re creating value for the larger good? In the cosmic age range, that’s Sag. There’s something bigger than all of this… and Sag invests in it because he knows it’s bigger than the present.
When building and appreciating gain equal time in Capricorn, 6370. There’s no use in making all that great things if we can’t take a step back and appreciate what we’ve accomplished. The Capricorn, eager to put in the effort, will set an example for the rest of the globe in terms of how to love what they’ve created.
When the chill level rises to a new level, Aquarius: 7077. The Aquarius, detached yet invested, intelligent yet whimsical, wise yet childlike, knows what it’s like to sit alone on a hill and has no qualms about doing so… in front of an audience or not.
7784 Pisces
When the human form is no longer important. Any Pisces would tell you that they prefer to spend their time in a parallel reality that they have built. One of a number of options. They’re going to futures that don’t exist and pasts that didn’t happen. For our oldest sign, dreams are a given… because why would they be otherwise?
Finally, there’s a fundamental overlay to all of this in terms of OUR age and the tone of the direction we’re taking. We’re in water in the womb and during childhood. We’re in the air from infancy till our early twenties. We’re on Earth from the mid-twenties to the mid-sixties. We’re on fire from 60 onwards!
Oh wonderful one, how does this chronology fit into your life? If you’re a member of my Aligned Advantage subscription, we can continue to talk about this in our weekly Zoom. And, of course, in the comments section below.
As always, I hope you’ll stay in touch, share your new connection with time, and, most importantly, continue to invest in your relationship with yourself! You’re causing so many wonderful things to happen, and it’s so much fun to watch!
Which zodiac signs are considered to be elderly souls?
Pisces (February) is a water sign. “They are known as the zodiac’s ‘ancient spirits,’ because they are wise, poetic, and otherworldly.” This gives the impression that this sign was created in another age, with an interesting but slightly out-of-touch point of view.
Is Aquarius the oldest of the zodiac signs?
Aquarius is a Zodiac constellation and one of the oldest known constellations. Ptolemy, a Greek astronomer, first recorded Aquarius in the second century. Its Latin name means “cup carrier” or “water bearer.”
What is the first zodiac sign that is extremely rare?
Aquarius sun signs are “considered to be the distinctive thinkers of the zodiac,” according to Stardust, as they are the rarest zodiac sign. They’re also known as “innovators and creators of new viewpoints.”
Aside from being the rarest zodiac sign, what distinguishes this sign from the other 11 zodiac signs is that “they are known to be the watery portion of air,” according to Stardust. As a result, they are “both logical and intuitive.” They also, according to Stardust, “have the ability to see where civilization is headed and make movements toward progressing it.” (Perhaps they also know how to ease stress for each zodiac sign?)
Is it true that elderly spirits are uncommon?
You’re always on the hunt for others who share your interests. Because old spirits are uncommon, they don’t cross paths every day of the week. As a result, when they do meet, there is an instantaneous sense of genuine connection.
Is it possible that I have an older soul?
Being called an old soul is usually a praise, as it suggests grace and wisdom. However, being older than your years might have drawbacks. “No one appreciates being a novice,” Merzon continues, “but the beauty of being a fresh soul is that they carry a lot less karma.”
Old souls come into this existence with the goal of experiencing and fulfilling karma, while fresh souls “want to make form out of light” and “feel what it’s like to be a being in a body,” according to her. As a result, the new souls’ experience is more cheerful, whereas the old souls’ experience can be heavy. Furthermore, because the old soul enters to this existence with more experience and understanding, they are better able to deal with hurdles and hardships.
Returning to Brailsford’s thesis, it all boils down to what the new vs. old soul is going through in this incarnation. An old soul “wants to descend into the depths and study,” while a new soul “wants to be fresh and new and maybe live a more hedonistic existence.” Old souls may also feel lonely since they can see through much of modern culture’s illusions and divisions.
What does it mean to have a Pisces soulmate?
What Is The Soulmate Sign Of A Pisces? Taurus, Virgo, and Cancer are the three zodiac signs where Pisces can discover their love. Pisces and Taurus place a high priority on love. They both believe in long-term relationships and work hard to maintain them.
Aquarius is the sign of the zodiac, but which god is he?
Prometheus is a Titan deity of forethought and cunning advice who was tasked with creating humanity out of clay. Prometheus, like Aquarius, was something of a renegade and a dreamer. Uranus, the ruling planet of Aquarius, has talents and turmoil that are similar to his. Aquarius is a revolutionary as well as a zodiac sign associated with progressive and futuristic ideas.
