  1. Pisces Full Moon

  2. Why are we here? The time of the full moon is a time of celebration. We celebrate the energy of the SUN. The reason is that when the Moon is full it is the furthest from the Sun, thus the Sun’s energy is the strongest. Thus we celebrate the energy of the Sun through meditation and reflection.

  3. All is Energy! For those of you who are not familiar with esoteric philosophy – or do not know it well – I will remind you that all is energy. Thus you should simply relax and try to feel the energy rather then concern yourself with understanding everything. During the lecture you can ask questions or make comments. After the meditation you may also ask questions.

Even if you do not the Pisces energy will still affect you - and, perhaps, as importantly those around you. If you are a Pisces you may not display all of the characteristics of Pisces as you have other planets and energies which also affect you.

  14. What about Water people? Beliefs are based on feelings rather than on reason, passion, or practicality. Sensitive Perceive life through their emotions Water rises into the air and falls as rain, nurturing the land. Need close emotional relationships, and rarely have superficial affairs.

  15. So what happens when we put the mode of mutable together with the element of water?

  16. We get Pisces! • Pisces is the 12th sign of the zodiac. • Being the 12th sign it represents the final stage in the evolution of man and his place in the universe. • In this sign is the desire to use all that has been learned and assimilated in order to gain perfection, of man as an individual and humanity as a whole.

  17. Pisceans readily adapt to change!

  18. Pisces’ Astrological Symbol Pisces is symbolized by two fish swimming in opposite directions. Pisceans often feel like they are being pulled in different directions, making it difficult to make concrete decisions. The symbol of the fish has been associated with followers of Jesus Christ.

  21. Pisces’ Astrological Glyph  The glyph for Pisces can be seen as depicting two fish swimming in opposite directions. As well, it shows two crescents of receptivity pointing outwards, held together by the line of matter. The sign of Pisces is considered a receptive sign—one that is impressionable, spiritual, and open-minded. 

  22. The Pisces Myth Typhon, Aphrodite, Eros The Little Mermaid

  25. The Little Mermaid

  26. In many fairy tales there is a peculiar and enchanting figure, sometimes called an ondine or melusine, sometimes called a mermaid What is the Little Mermaid story? falls in love with a mortal man Legend of the Swan Prince • the union of a mortal with something from another level of reality • the meeting is fraught with difficulties • there are always conditions attached • it usually ends in disaster or difficulty • because of the ineptitude of the mortal

  27. How does this relate to Pisces? • Pisces is the last sign, the completion of the cycle.  • Every sign leaves its trace in Pisces; there is not so much a particular Piscean dilemma as that Pisces embodies the human dilemma. • In this last of the zodiacal signs is represented all of man’s helplessness, his longings, his dreams, his needs, his powerlessness in the face of the universe, his delusions of grandeur, his longing for love, his sense of a mystery or a divine source which he strives for, yet cannot wholly reach without great sacrifice. 

  28. You might say that in every Pisces, symbolized by the two fishes trying to swim in opposite directions yet bound together by a golden cord, there is this dilemma of the meeting of two dimensions. • There is the ordinary mortal side, which is used to facts and realities of a tangible kind. • And there is also that which inhabits the dark depths, and which occasionally flashes its tail above the water, catching the sunlight, entrancing the mortal on the shore. • How this meeting is dealt with is the story of each Piscean life.

  29. Some Pisceans simply follow the mermaid down, forgetting that human lungs cannot survive underwater. Here we have the derelicts of humanity, the lines of the junkies and the chronic alcoholics and the hopeless, the waster, the despairing, the abject. • Or the escapism of Aphrodite and Eros. • For other Pisceans, the fairy tale has a different ending.  It is here that we can see the genius of men such as Einstein—where the glimpse of other realms and of a universe barely comprehensible to the ordinary mind in its majesty and infinity—is translated through the human brain, offering to the world a charting of the unknown waters.

  30. Obviously, not every Piscean is an Einstein or a drunkard. • But perhaps the task of every Piscean is to come to terms in some way with the transpersonal realm, and to have the courage to be its mouthpiece. • Here we find the poets and musicians, the great actors and playwrights, the visionaries and mystics who attempt to bring to ordinary life a glimpse of something else. (Which you will note in our list of those born in Pisces.) • This can be through a work of art, or it can exist in the humblest expressions of human love. 

  31. We’ll now mention some of the challenges to Pisces. Remember though we are talking about the energy of Pisces and there are many types of energy.

  38. Pisces and Christianity

  39. Associations of the Christ story with astronomical factors abound. As the Bull and Ram had been worshipped during the preceding Ages of Taurus and Aries, the Fishes became the great mystical symbol. Christ was said to be a “fisher of men” • Another Christian symbol, the sacrificed lamb, likely refers to the end of the prior age, Aries, just as the slaying of the Bull is believed to represent the end of the Age of Taurus. • On the way to his Crucifixion, Christ made twelve stops, known as the “Stations of the Cross,” another allusion to the twelve Zodiacal signs.

  40. Similarly the death of Christ, the Crucifixion, could contains a symbolic reference to the end of the Age of Pisces when the Age of Aquarius begins. Christ’s body was fixed to the Cross (Cruci-fixion) but astrologers know of something called the “Fixed Cross.” This is the group of four so-called “fixed” Zodiacal signs forming a cross within the circle of the Zodiac: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. When the Vernal Point precesses into Aquarius, the four seasonal points, the two Equinoxes and two Solstices, themselves always forming a cross, will have moved into the fixed signs or Fixed Cross of the Zodiac from the mutable signs where they are now.

  41. The Fish are one of its great symbols. Why? • Firstly, there is the aspiration. • Second to the aspiration is the urge towards self-sacrifice. • Compassion and love of an impersonal, unbiased kind are also Piscean virtues extolled in this last era.  Love thy neighbour as thyself, turn the other cheek - these are Piscean aspirations.  Of course you have to remember that there's another fish to the pair, too.  But much of the history of religion in the last two thousand years has forgotten about that second fish.  It's locked down in the basement, and popularly referred to as the Devil. 

  42. The Labours of Hercules

  43. The Labour in Pisces There are several variations of the myth concerning the labor of Hercules in the sign Pisces. We are told that there was an island where lived a human monster with a body of three men united. He had a herd of red cattle, guarded by a shepherd and a two-headed dog. Hercules received orders (Pisces is the sign of obedience) to bring these cattle from the island, across land and water to the sacred city.

  44. Hercules completes his task Hercules sailed to the island in a golden cup and when he arrived there he climbed to the top of a mountain and spent the night in prayer.

  45. Hercules completes his task Then he killed the two-headed dog but he did not kill the shepherd.

  46. Hercules completes his task He also killed the owner of the red cattle.

  47. Hercules completes his task Here is the beautiful part of the story: Hercules placed all of the cattle in the golden cup, in which he had sailed over to the island, took them to the Sacred City, and offered them in sacrifice to Athena, Goddess of Wisdom.

  48. What is the three-bodied man? Hercules has had a vision of something he has to do. He sees humanity owned by a monster, a three-bodied man, the symbol of a human being with mental, emotional and physical bodies united. Now humanity, the human monster, is ready for salvation and the real work of The World Savior can begin as a whole with the group concept underlying the work rather than individual soul saving.

  49. What are the red cattle, shepherd & two-headed dog? The two-headed dog representing the matter aspect and the psychic nature. You see why Hercules spared the shepherd. The mind can still be the shepherd of the cattle but the two-headed dog, the psychic-emotional nature and the matter aspect, Hercules killed, which means that they were deprived of any power. The symbolism of the red cattle is plainly that of the lower desires, desire being ever an outstanding characteristic of humanity. . They are guarded by a shepherd, which is the mind.

  50. Transmitter of Light If Jesus [or Hercules, or you] as a human being, en rapport with his [your] soul, becomes a transmitter of light to the sons of men, so we can extend the concept and think of humanity as a whole with all minds held steady in the light, transmitting to lower kingdoms in nature that spiritual energy which will raise them up into heaven. That is the work of humanity. We are so occupied with our own problems that we forget the larger picture. It is to be noted again that the keeper of the cattle, the form aspect, was also killed but the shepherd and the cattle were raised up in the golden cup.
