"To you, Pisces,I give the most difficult tasks of them all. I ask you to collect all of man's sorrows and return them to Me. Your tears are to be ultimately My Tears, The sorrow you absorbe is the effect of man's misunderstanding of My Idea, but you are to give him compassion that he may try again. For this, the most difficult task of them all, I give you the greatest gift of them all. You will be the only one of my twelve children to understand Me. But this gift of understanding is for you, Pisces, for when you try to spread it to man, he will not listen."

Great thread you guys! I just read the entire article that Blue Topaz had posted and it really resonates with me. I lived in an unstable home enviroment where you were constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop with pops. It was very hard for me and my sister emotionally. My mother, a pisces rising, knew this and thats why she left him. I'm a watersun and Neptune is very strong in my chart.

Dulce Moon, you mention your mother is Pisces rising. My mother is as well - what does that offer them? She is Virgo sun.

I agree with shielding for the empath - we'd be doing ourselves a favor, and live peacefully, not picking up all the stray energy we're bombarded with, and allow us to be able to relate easier to (and be around) the people we come in contact. Almost like being more responsible with this ability.

I've been an Empath since very early childhood, I have a real problem trying not to absorb emotions in my surroundings.
I'm a 0 degree Aries, with my Venus and mercury conjunct my 10th house cusp in Pisces. I have a Sagittarius moon and 59 degrees of Gem. rising, most of my first house is Cancer.
I had a startling encounter with a psychic when I was in my teens. She wasn't a professional psychic because she told me that she couldn't control her visions.
She unnerved me one evening by telling me things about my brother who had passed away that no one knew but me, she also said that she had such a strong reaction to me because of my very keen, but dormant psychic energy, she went on to tell me that I shouldn't fear my abilities, instead I should open myself to the universal energy that I was subduing so strongly.
I still haven't had the courage to do that, any advice on calming my fears?

Lilith, my mother is a virgo sun too!
I don't know, I think she's very watery...its just in her eyes. People say that the ascendant is just a mask but in her case I think its definitely a part of her personality. She's sensitive and dreamy but her virgo sun keeps her on the ground.

So glad I "found" this thread. I have been feeling this incredible sadness for a lost little boy I've never met. Two days ago, I stumbled into the website of an astrologer featuring location charts and lexigramms for the missing. One of the still missing, was a little boy who is (was) about the same age as my own son :sad: For some reason, I feel very, very sad for this child. I visualize the terror and abduction, and ask myself why the little ones suffer at the hands of monstrous people. Maybe because I was abused as a child I feel the despair even deeper. I don't know why out of all the cases, this one has remained in my soul for so long. Its hard to explain even to myself. I have been prayign for him to be found, I hope he will be . Sometimes I wish I weren't so sensitive, or at least had stronger boundaries. I don't like people to suffer, and want to help in some way. Yet I wonder if I'm too sensitive to be of meaningful service.
