Is Pisces a goddess or a god?
Ishtar is sometimes referred to be the fertility goddess. She grew into a more complicated figure over time, and she is now known as a goddess of opposing implications and energies. This complex goddess is the epitome of Pisces. The energy of Ishtar is ephemeral and conflicting. She is complex, universal, and esoteric, just like Pisces.
What is God’s sign?
Swipe your dominant hand in front of your head, touching your forehead with your thumb, then draw downward to your chest area to indicate God. It’s like one-half of two praying hands joined together.

What inspired God to create Pisces?
Pisces is the ruling constellation between February 19th and March 20th. We’ve already noted that Pisces, the zodiac sign that follows Aquarius, is a sign that is full of emotions, both good and terrible. We also mentioned that Pisces are wonderful companions to have. The origins of Pisces, like the other 11 zodiac signs, may be traced back to prehistoric times. Ptolemy gave this star sign the name Pisces, which means fish in Latin. He lived around 1900 years ago and was the best astronomer in the Greco-Roman world. The names of the zodiac signs were not chosen at random by Ptolemy; they all have a legendary origin. The myth surrounding Pisces will be discussed in this post.
A monster on a killing spree
Pisces’ story begins with Typhon, a Greek god. This god was the worst of the worst. The gods usually have imperfections, but they’re nice at heart. Typhon, however, is not one of them. This god is dangerous and deadly in every way. He was referred to as a colossus. His upper body was human-like, while his legs were snake-like. His head was also made up of a collection of snake heads that had grown into flaming hair and screamed ceaselessly. To top it off, this creature was equipped with wings! As a result, Typhon became a formidable foe to the gods.
Typhon was treated as an outsider by the gods, who were clearly not on good terms with him. Typhon had had enough of it and resolved to climb Mount Olympus one awful day. All of the Greek gods and goddesses lived on this mountain. Typhon is in a foul temper, and he has threatened all of the gods who live on that mountain. They’re all well aware of Typhon’s abilities, so each god makes a hasty retreat. To get away from him, most of the gods transform into animals in order to achieve speed and agility. The gods of love, Aphrodite and Eros, are the only ones who do not change shape. Typhon is closing in on the two lovers, who are in serious danger. Two fish emerge at the last time and let Aphrodite and Eros jump on their backs. The two are able to avoid being captured by the monster Typhon in this manner. The two fish were placed in the heavens by the Greek gods as a way of celebrating this great gesture, and they became the constellation Pisces.
Different variations of the Pisces story
According to tradition, Aphrodite and Eros transformed themselves into fish and escaped this way. It appears improbable that this is the case because other gods changed into animals but did not have constellations named after them.
Although the myth of Pisces as we know it now may have originated with Ptolemy, the legend of Pisces stretches back to pre-Greco-Roman antiquity. The fish were known as Ichthyes in Syrian mythology. They assisted in the rescue of Ashtarte, the Syrian counterpart of Aphrodite, by transporting her down the Euphrates River. Overall, the story is similar, and the fish deserved to shine forever among the stars in the night sky.
What is the Pisces Age?
The age of Pisces began around the year 1 AD and will finish around the year 2150 AD. Many Christian icons for Christ include the astrological symbol for Pisces, the fishes, because the narrative of Christ’s birth falls on this date. Jesus is considered an archetype of the Piscean since he had many of the temperaments and personality qualities of a Piscean. Furthermore, the twelve apostles were known as “fishers of men,” early Christians were known as “little fishes,” and “Ikhthus,” the Greek word for fish, was used as a code term for Jesus. The beginning of the era, or the “Great Month of Pisces,” is considered the start of the Christian religion. Saint Peter is the apostle of the Piscean zodiac sign.
