Depends on the aspects I think, I have high standards. Saturn conjuncts my sun, mercury and venus in pisces. They may like to go with the flow as they are mutable sign and accept low standards. Do you mean low standards in relationships or at anything? Venus is exalted in Pisces. They want to love everyone so they may accept all standards. They also usually attract needy people which does not help either. IP: Logged |

I have high standards concerning most subjects.Saturn trines my Leo ASC and Aries Venus, though.

It seems to me that they have very high standards, but they are the most forgiving sign, so it's not always obvious.IP: Logged |

It's not about standards. They often see what others can't. They like to take in strays and make them better again. When the strays are of the relationship variety, they are sometimes able to do that and sometimes not...but their hearts are in the right place.IP: Logged |

I agree, not about standards, more about a different way of seeing the world. It's the Piscean way as opposed to the others. Other signs have the hardest time figuring out this one because it is an accumulated experience sign while the others are mere fragments. Other signs will judge because Pisces is not a sign concerned with judgments and they cannot grasp it. It's not their nature. This is where the misunderstanding and conflict arise.IP: Logged |

No! Personally I find your question quite offensive. Generalising about millions of people who happen to be born around the same time of the year is pathetic. IP: Logged |

LOL! Londongirl, this is what astrology is more or less. It is somewhat general but you are getting an idea about how one group of people will approach life based on where the sun is during the time of year they are born. What else can you do? It involves a certain level of generalizing although you can get more specific on a chart-by-chart basis but you are still going to pretty much interpret those with sun born in that sign the same general way, right? Otherwise, why even have astrology? Why have anything? Everyone can approach life on a strictly individual basis. In this case, it is more a matter of misinterpretation. I don't agree with Pisces having low standards but I do think they see the world from a different perspective than others and if that's generalizing then call it astrology because it is what it is.
LOL if you don't like generalizing, you are definitely reading the wrong stuff when you read horoscopes or descriptions of signs. Sorry, I don't mean to laugh so much but I always find irony incredibly funny (notice I used the word "always" har har snicker snicker.) IP: Logged |

I'll opt for less, considering what astrology is capable of, if people further explored it. Sun sign alone is only a fraction of a person's astrological makeup. I know of two Pisces sun people, both of whom have ascended in their companies at an incredibly fast rate. You don't have that with low standards, at least in terms of the work ethic of these two. Not to mention, the question didn't ask in what area(s) do said Pisces (suns?.... presumably, since nothing else was specified) have low standards in. IP: Logged |

I edited my post. I think it's more a matter of misinterpretation. This particular poster (the one who created this topic) looks at people with Pisces emphasized and chooses the words "low standard" as a description for what he sees from them. I don't use this description because I disagree with it, it's not how I see it, but I do think the Pisces will see things from their own perspective just like Aries will, or Aquarius, or Gemini. What is low standard to one is not to another. However, I agree with the idea that astrology, in general, GENERALIZES. That's what it does. If you hate generalizations, why even bother with it?

I "bother" with astrology because it's all in the details

Correct, there are details that lie in every chart but you cannot deny astrology has a lot of generalizing and is based on this concept. To accept astrology is to accept a degree of generalization. IP: Logged |

Hmm, I've found the opposite to be true, Pisces have great taste in everything from food to clothes.Flaky..must say yes, have not met a Pisces who was not a little bit of a flake. Pisces suns tend to be just a bit odd, which makes them fun, but low standards is not my experience. IP: Logged |

To add to this and Faith's comment, Pisces are actually very glamorous individuals. They are sort of the same as Leos as they are about appearances but only to come off as what they want to be seen as. They are about illusion (you may or may not remove the negative connotations "illusion" has)
If anything a Pisces is an eternal optimist. So what may seem as having low standards to one, Pisces will see the potential and what could be and attempt to regenerate or cultivate that individual. Although Pisces can be most susceptible to being abused and/or taken advantage of because they're soft, generous souls (the ones I have met anyway!) who are sometimes unwilling to face reality.

With Pisces it can be about extremes. It's more about a dissatisfaction with this world and a longing for another, hence the fish as the symbol of this sign. Fish do not live in the same environment as mammals, they need certain accommodations or they cannot thrive. This is how I like to think of Pisces constellation, as an area of the zodiac yearning for specific circumstances that meet their criteria. My North Node in Pisces is a prime example of this. I have a preconceived notion of what I am looking for and if something doesn't equal up to it or is it, I get really upset, like if I don't get exactly what I want. IP: Logged |

I've never understood what there is to be offended about when this happens. It's as if you think she is speaking directly to you and telling you you're an awful person. If you aren't a Pisces with low standards, then congrats! If you know Pisces people who don't have low standards, congrats again! If you disagree then state why...but there's really no point in being huffy. IP: Logged |

Exactly, the other thing is a Pisces's optimism is also founded on a sort of internal feeling of what they want. It may not make sense to anyone but them, but that is just how it is, this is where (perhaps) the "low standards" thing comes from. B/c someone else wouldn't make that decision, it does not mean anything to a Pisces..it's just how they are in the world. IP: Logged |

^^ Very true. I’ve tried to regenerate few people myself. Facing reality can be very hard for a pisces though, I can brainwash myself into believing stuffs that don’t exist then once in a while I wake up and think “oh it’s not the reality”. IP: Logged |

I'm a Pisces moon. Everyone tells me my standards are too high. Or rather, they hint at it. Other people's standards for me, as I have learned over the years and from letting people set me up on blind dates and such, are pretty low. I don't like that. It's one of the reasons I don't have many friends. I don't need people who pity me. IP: Logged |
