I hope this description helps...

So, my instructor's got a Pisces ASC, and before I knew for certain, I could guess as much. The clues that gave it away for me were as follows:

He looked at me (and some other things/people he liked/admired) with a sparkle/twinkle in his eye. It's almost like he looks at you/others/things when he's happy/excited as if he's IN LOVE!

This image also sums up what he looks like

Part of the reason this happens, is because Pisces is VERY IMAGINATIVE so their imagination fuels how they see things and AMPLIFY them to magical heights!

Second clue was his humor/how he joked. He joked in a very imaginative way. While instructing he might say "and oh see this image here, this guy is riding an elephant, and to help you remember imagine this elephant flying through space and then you blast off of the elephant on your rocket shoes and come to another planet!"
and he'd laugh a bubbly laugh lol

Clue #3 was how he immediately intuited things about people without knowing them. He was able to assess things about people and know things in an uncanny, almost psychic way. I can think of a few examples, but what that stuck out was when he just met me, without any context, he saw me looking for something, and then handed me a piece of paper and smiled like
-> :3 and this was when he'd just walked in from the outside and couldn't even see me. How he knew I needed some paper was very psychic indeed.

Clue #4 was his HYPER almost supernatural awareness/sensitivity to his surroundings. He'd be typing at his computer while talking to a client, while listening to a conversation in the next room, through a small window, and hear everything that's going on.

Clue #5 he likes to spread happiness, love and joy. When his colleague is betchin, he reacts SOOO positively. I mean you might as will dress him up as a fairy and watch him throw glitter around the room. He was like "no you don't mean that D I have faith in you!! let's do a photoshoot of you and sell the pics!! that'll help!" (I kid you not)


Clue #6 was how he was on certain days. Sometimes he just really loved being alone, relished solitude, and just didn't want to talk. People can become dependent on how a Pisces can turn around the feelings in a room, and make people happy with their fantastical rosey glasses, and that can be tiring for them, so if you feel yourself ever thinking that, that's a good indicator. And often times they can try to fight their stress by being MORE imaginative and MORE fantastical.

So, hope that gives you a bit more of an idea about Pisces.


As for Cancer rising, and I'm talking about rising here - I've noted they're clumsy and have sort of a "pinching" grab when they take something, like a crab.

Also, they're very parental/motherly, like many have said. When they see you sad, Cancer will be more likely to say "Aww you poor baby lemme give you a blanket! You wanna come to my house for dinner?" or similar to that.

Pisces will dance around you in circles while talking about rockets and unicorns to cheer you up. Or similar as well lol

Thank you so much for sharing this Lalafortunaea! Aww he sure sounds like a sweet heart! Haha made me giggle so sweet! And that image awww!

I hope I will get better at understanding the difference by sensing it! I do understand they are different.

Well this guy has his moon in pisces conj Jupiter in pisces! so it makes it extra hard! Either he is Cancer Asc, Sun in 4th. Or Pisces asc with moon in asc haha so hard!

Physically also he looks like the actor James Norton, his facial construction and body, very alike James Norton, who has Sun in Cancer. He has not that look as the one you posted as an image, he has a very manly face but at the same time he looks vulnerabla!

BUT yes he is motherly in my opinion. For ex he will carry my bag if its heavy. He will hold up doors. He will care when he sees you seem tired or sleepy and he commnet it. Also, when ever I get an abcent look on my face, which happens often because my mind is always racing or I always have something to worry about etc, But I have Moon oppo saturn, and also a Virgo asc, I worry a lot, But also my resting face when I'm just neutral even that looks like I'm sad! haha.

And he will pick it up instantly and this is his standard thing to ask me at those time; "What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about that assignment?". Or " You look worried? Are you ok?". or "Are you tired? You seem off?". Or "You couldn't sleep tonight? What kept you up? Are you worried about something?".

Haha I mean, it really sounds like Cancer asc right? Also I remember once when a friend of his, a guy almost tipt over in his chair, I didn't even flich sitting by him. I mean if he is gonna fall, he will fall I can't catch him . But my friend reacted opening his arms by reflex as he wanted to catch him if, but the guy in the chair didn't tip over in the end so. This maybe a cancer trait too I read somewhere. Motherly in short yes.

Imagination? No he has very bad imanigation! Haha poor thing! He sometimes tries to keep up with me as I'm a sarcasm master, but he always fails! His so bad I laugh just so he won't feel hurt haha aww

Hmm well, I would say I am very VERY aloof. I have a almost unreal subconscious and a boundless imagination. I picked up astrology because it seemed dope to me. I love spiritual concepts.

What they say about the rose colored glasses is true, I see things the way I want to. Accepting others has never been a problem for me! Beauty is in everything and everyone. Worst quality is my self defeating tendencies and paranoia. I've had a very crazy life so far at 22, met a lot of people, know a lot of people but not close with a lot of people. God blessed me with a unique sense of style and talents. I feel like a celebrity even though I'm not. I definitely could be though. Others see me as different, mysterious, inspiring, crazy and weird. I always go with my own flow whether good or bad. I can make a room shine or dimmer with my presence or mood. I don't know, my life is pretty rad with the exception of a few dumb things I've done, but I'm a risk taker. I am good at casual relationships with people and prefer to be alone as of now because people tend to either obsess over me or use me. It's never a gray area. Not gonna lie though, when my heads on straight and I feel like socializing I can be a pretty awesome cat, almost to a fault. But yeah, I can only be around people so long before getting drained. Drug use has been a problem for me as well. Not easy being at the top and having trust issues/wanting space can deprive me of certain experiences. But I've done a lot and have some bizzare stories lol!!


Some aspects of mine:
Pisces Sun in 4th
Venus Conjunction Neptune and Uranus 3rd
Venus sextile Pluto
Scorpio ASC Pluto in 1st in Sag (0ー)
Aquarius Moon Conjunct Mercury in 3rd
Jupiter in 2nd

@Mel You're welcome and I'm glad that helped somewhat.


Another thought occurred to me that Pisces *sometimes* seems almost Aquarian, just as Aquarius *sometimes* seems Piscean. It's hard to describe. They're both very different and yet have some similarities in their vibe and way of being.

An astrologer I listened to on YT once described this similarity nicely,saying something like "Aquarius and Pisces are like twins born of the same womb." There's something otherworldly about them, almost.

I don't know if this will help. But this here is my experience

Cancer energy from someone will stir you into talking about how you are feeling. Even when you are feeling really good, there is a tendency for them to stir inner feelings of fear/doubt of how good you feel that you didn't know you had.

Often many will say stuff like "hey, u okay?" or "whats happening? You good?" etc. And then look at you with those concerned eyes like they heard something about you that you were trying to conceal.

Not like Scorpio "I gotcha" stare. But the "you can tell me.This is a safe space" child therapist stare. Often lightly touching your arm or caressing your back etc. Cancer and Taurus like to touch. But for differing reasons.

Pisces on the other hand draws the wounded/sickly to them. They just exude an energy field that says "all are welcome and will not be judged" around them.

Because they seem so chilled, most assume they don't have strong convictions nor are judgmental(but they do and they can). So people end up telling them stuff without them having to ask or coerce as Cancer would.

Oddly Pisces more "passive" approach, whilst drawing people in to talk about their issues. Can seriously drain them to a point where they just avoid having to make eye contact lol.

On the other hand, Cancer's more active "goading" has them thrive on hearing how sad your life is and how their advice can make it better. They love to feel "needed"

If these two are married to each other. Cancer will at times feel very frustrated with Pisces when Pisces answers with "But I am not happy. Nor am I sad. I just don't feel anything". As for Cancer, to feel "vague" is akin to a slow death

Cancer is stronger: more of a leader. Pisces is more of a follower. Cancer is very, very bound to family and close friends. Cancer makes nests and you are in it or not in it.
Cancer can cut you off and you can be dead to them. Pisces is not as strong in the above ways. Pisces goes along to get along.

Thank you so much for sharing this Radium! Very interesting to read! <3

I can relate to what you are describing about rose coloured glasses, I have Venus Square Neptune, so I get it!

You sound like a very unique personality! Yes for a person so open as you are, its easy to feel drained of energy!

I hope you always will have and meet good people in your life <3 oh and stay away from drugs sweetie <3

Yes very helpful dear! I love long stories so one can get a feel of it! <3

Yes too have read about Pisces having Aqua treats, because its a sign that comes jus after aqua And because pisces takes easily after other signs energies, hard to describe but yeah I understand. For ex my brother is heavily neptunian with neptune in capri and stellium of planets there, sun, moon, saturn, neptune. He is so easily impressionate and have always been since he was a kid. He will take after manners, personalities etc very easily. He can even take after actors on tv, he will for ex have a fav actor and without him knowing it he will start to act and talk like that actor. And its always a mean and super sarcastic actor, so he will act very hurtful!

So yeah I can get Pisces taking of the aqua energy

Yes thats how I feel about those two too. Pisces is floating and following the current. while Cancer will dig its feet in the sand and won't budge if he does not want to!

Of course its helpful! Thank you so much! I love detailed sharings like this! <3

I really get how you mean and it really strenghtens my believe he is indeed a Cancer Asc with 4th house Sun. Even though he has pisces Moon and I sure feel that wibe, the Cancer wibe is much stronger! Well he did give me a birth time but I was a bit unsure for a moment but not anymore haha

He is like you and the others above describes cancers, this is his standart questions "How do you feel?" "Are you tired today+ You look tired?". "Is everything ok? You look troubled?". "Oh so you couldn't sleep? What kept you up? Are you worried about something?". I thought it was his libra venus at first but no, libra is to airy!

Also yes he will touch lightly.

He likes sharing his feelings of insecurity and fears too, about the feature.

In group settings he will make sure everyone feels ok, and also if we have someone who is new to the group he will make sure the person feels welcome and for ex if we are having lunch he will ask questions like "Was your food good? Are you full now?" etc

Also he can be shy and does not like rejections, of course. I was in the beginning of our friendship acting cold out of no where after we had a great time the day before (saturn-moon defences). And he reacted by closing of and started to ignoring me. He stood or sat close by at classes for ex, but he avoided eye contact and dunno it looked like he was trying to look neutral. But I could see he was hurt and felt rejected.


Other then that we have had only 2 bumps in our reationship. Once in September, he acted weird and cold out of no where. And I showed I felt hurt but I did not say anything. And a week after when I meet him I acted normal and he was like a puppy haha. Sometimes during our talks I would drift of or start to think about how he makes me happy and so sad at the same time lol, and I got a serious/sad expression.
And for days everytime it happened he was immideately like "Oh are you ok? What are you thinking about?" "You look sad" etc etc".


Its his way of saying sorry and showing me he is not an insensetive jerk and he wanted me to open up and share my feelings, which I did not do at that time.

BUT this monday, he stood me up for lunch and made me so upset. I knew he would feel bad about it later on that day. And I was right. We met the day after for lunch, and I decided that I was gonna confront him about it, I hate being passive aggressive, I wanted to clear the air.

And even though I looked neutral as soon as we sat down he started with "Are you ok? tired? you look bothered?". So I think he wanted me to open up IF I was bothered by his behaviour. He did not wanna bring it up himself. SO I did bring it up, and he was soo apolegetic and he thanked me several times for bringing it up. Surely he felt so bad I was gonna see him as a jerk so he was happy I gave him the opportunity to "explain" himself...


OMG sorry for a wall of text! Well cancer asc it is then!

That was awesome to read and not long winded at all lol

At its best Cancer energy is so magnetic and beautiful. I can get really intimate with them (and not meaning necessarily just sex). I love how emotionally in tune they often aim to be.

Libra energy can act that way too. So I get the confusion. But the difference is that Libra always wants to smooth over differences of opinion, refuse to talk about their feelings if they are hurt(for fear that it will make things "unpleasant") and fight to restore order. Even if its just on the surface. And this comes off as disingenous to me really

Cancer energy however often will show their discontent and can be very agressive when angry.Their feelings are everything.

At its best this energy to me feels the closest to true love and inclusion

I tend to want to protect and nourish my cancer placement clients. They activate my motherly instincts. They feel safe and seen with me. I guess is my moon in pisces square neptune that attunes easily to what others need from me but I have noticed cancers really bring that out of me. They want to be seen, accepted and loved but hide this from others but I see it and is like they finally feel seen, accepted and understood.

I知 a cancer sun and pisces rising... So i think when people first meet me they assume I知 emotional, dreamy (I have been told this multiple times), sweet and maybe even too nice. I have also been told that when the light hits my eyes I look like I am crying - so yes very emotional/sad vibe impressions. However, when they get to know me I think they see my maternal and caring instincts are not for everyone. I feel this is the key difference between Cancer and Pisces. Pisces more open to everyone, whereas Cancer is very guarded and choosy about their compassion. Also I find with Cancer there is more intensity in the feelings. I will say though in my personal experience Pisces is stronger than Cancer in the way they grow from painful past experiences. It tends to push them to grow and transform like Scorpio

Thank you Aries! And thank you for reading my long post! <3

In the past I have recent the cancer males, with sun or mars or venus in cancer, because they can be so moody. I myself can be very moody especially when I'm hurt. So I can't stand unbalanced moodiness haha. My father has sun in cancer and I can't stand his moods, he can act like a child and sulk for small stuff. His silent treatmments was killing me psychologically before I was grown enough to handle it. And how he hates saying no to stuff, he will use indirect ways and use ridicolous excuses. It does not matter how many times I have confronted him about this, he just can't be direct. he can be vindictive too, but it goes over fast. If I patch up things before he has musterd the energy. Thats the thing with cancer, you have to smooth things over very fast.


BUT yes I have letely started to undestand the appeal of cancer energy, or atleast the cancer rising. You are right about the libra energy, and being an Aries stellium myself, I can't stand anything that does seem fake or non-straightforward.

This guys libra venus is definitely at play but he goes under the surface of stuff and genuinly asks how one feels and he genuinly wants to smooth things over etc.

Although lately I have started to recent him. He has hurt my feelings and this time I can't talk about it to him. Because it's not a big deal usually, but hurtful anyway.

Which my gemini moon hates. If I can't talk things through, it will fester inside me. Now I'm super mad and recentful towards him and myself. And we will not see each other for a month so it will surely grow inside me for weeks. Not good :/

I'm starting to believe, he is kind and super caring etc, just because he gets an ego boost by me. He do wanna smoth things out, not because he cares about me, no its because he want status quo, he wan't us to be ok so I can keep on giving him dopamin kicks and ego bosst. He is not a bad person. But this is what I see now. All his kindness is just a mask, because he hates and fears being disliked by other. (libra venus).

I may be a bit cynical, and unbalanced. But I'm plutonic, things are only white or grey to me.

Thank you so much for sharing this lulubunny!
Aww you sound like a sweet heart! I think pisces and cancer in combo is so great!

I understand how you mena, by cancers being moore choosy. This guy is very kind and accepting to everyone, BU he has only 3-4 friends he keeps to. He won't let many in, even though he seems like someone who would.

I really ralate to this Hypatia! I know of cancer male suns and no matter how manly they are or have manly faces, there is a vulnerabel look on their face that makes me wanna hug and protect them. Also their energy, I can see if a cancer got hrt but tries to hide it. Dunno how but I see it clearly. Hard to describe but yes I know it well.

I'm a Sun in 4th! But I'm a Cappy, haha. I totally get what you mean about being able to pick up if people have luminaries in Virgo (I'm a Virgo ASC as well).

Cancer - especially in men, in my experience - come off as a really caring, cozy energy. These people are usually the sweetest because they're strong and able to love/care for people "properly." Meanwhile Pisces, and one of my best friends is a Pike so I can say this haha, is more of a nervous energy. They're very sensitive to their environment and are easily overwhelmed. They love you unconditionally but their love (in my experience) is more of an insecure, neurotic kind of love. Like a... "if I love you unconditionally you'll love me the same way, right?" kind of a thing. But they're much much more creative than Cancers, they've got this neurotic, eccentric kind of creativity about them.

I have Moon in 4th house and Pisces in 1st house. My mother is a Cancer ASC, and I have both Pisces and Cancer friends.

Cancer is definitely more grounded. Cancer is sweet, but belies a certain stubbornness that you won't see with Pisces. (It is opposite Capricorn, after all.) Pisces goes with the flow to a certain degree, and then when they can no longer bend without breaking, they disappear. Both will do just about anything for those they care about, but they show it differently - call a Cancer if you need someone to defend you or fight along side you. Pisces will help you pick up the pieces and probably won't say "told you so."

Maybe it was after hitting rock bottom she learned not to play the role of the victim and picked herself back up. You are judging her on her weakest moment. You are not focusing on the the many times she picked herself up and took care of business. You are using a magnifying glass on her weakest moment and letting that define her entire character and be the last chapter in her story or ignoring the many times she was strong and minimizing it. Maybe for every weak moment she had 9 strong moments.

And putting your pride down and letting someone else see you super vulnerable and "beg for mercy" takes courage too, a lot of people cant let others see them vulnerable and vulnerability is extremely powerful.

Actually I feel putting pride before love is cowardly and it takes a lot courage to put your pride down and let the other person see you vulnerable.


Agreed. I have a recent personal example of this, but I'm not going to share it.
