Pisces Dream and Its Tarot Symbol

On February 19, the sun began the annual Pisces cycle that lasted for one month. On the tarot card, Pisces corresponds to the "moon" card, while the traditional Pisces guardian star is Jupiter (the same as the shooter), which corresponds to the "wheel of fortune" in the tarot card, and the modern guardian star Neptune corresponds to the "handstand man".

Neptune's English name is Neptune, which is the name of Poseidon in ancient mythology. The "moon" controls the ebb and flow of the ocean. So obviously, Pisces is a water sign, and the meaning of water system in tarot cards is related to the changes of love, friendship and human emotions.

The symbol of Pisces and the cross

Pisces, a symbol of two fish tied together and swimming in opposite directions. A fish, upstream, has been swimming to Aries in the east; The other fish, swimming downstream, swam all the way to the water bottle in the west. And the opposite direction of this cross just forms a cross, which is a symbol of Christianity. The vertical axis on the cross represents spirit, and the horizontal axis symbolizes matter.

In ancient Babylonian mythology, it is said that two fish pushed a huge egg to the shore, from which Atagreti, the goddess of the valley, and her son Isis were born.

Ichthys experiences death and rebirth every year. The myth of "Fish Man" and "Pisces" became more and more closely related to Christianity in the long history that followed. Opposite Pisces is Virgo, which is closely related to Christianity in Greek mythology.

Fish and monster Tifeng in ancient Greek mythology

Tifeng, in Greek mythology, is the youngest son of Gaia, the goddess of the earth, and the child of Tal talos, the god of hell. Tifeng is a demonic monster with a fire-breathing nose and hundreds of faucets. The word Typhon, which means "strong hurricane" in Greek vocabulary, is also related to the meaning of "hot steam".

The word "typhoon" in English vocabulary now comes from this allusion. Medical "typhus" also comes from this etymology. At that time, people thought that this terrible disease was caused by the poisonous gas emitted by the monster Typhon.

Tifeng once controlled the whole heaven because he stole Zeus' scepter while making out with the goddess. In order to escape from Tifeng's clutches, the gods of Olympus turned into various animals and fled everywhere. Pan, the symbol of Capricorn, became a half-sheep fish. Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, and her son eros turned themselves into two fish. In order not to be separated, they tied silver ropes to each other and hid together in the Euphrates River.

So the combination of love and desire is the immortal symbol of Pisces. The symbol of Pisces in astrology is two symmetrical new moons.

Later, with the help of Phoenician Prince Cadmus, Zeus finally conquered Tifeng and buried it at the foot of Mount Antai. Until now, people living near Mount Antaina can often hear its roar. Cadmus used the skills he learned from Apollo, the sun god, to help Zeus conquer this monster (Pisces) with the lure of music. Since then, the order of heaven has been restored, and love and desire have spread all over the world again.

"The Moon" and "The Handstand Man"

The "Moon" card on the tarot card traditionally depicts "two dogs barking at the moon". These two dogs are dark and light respectively, symbolizing spirit and matter. Behind it, a crayfish jumped out of the water, symbolizing the huge egg rising from the water in ancient Babylonian mythology. The "moon" in the tarot card symbolizes a warning, telling the interviewee that the problem may not be clear or confused by something. These are also the negative factors of Pisces.

The "handstand man" in Tarot cards depicts a man hanging upside down with his legs to form a cross. And its explanation is to tell the questioner to understand the spiritual factors of the existing situation.
