The symbol of the fish came from ancient mythology. They are supposed to represent Aphrodite (in Roman mythology, Venus) and her son Eros (in Roman mythology, Cupid), who were walking by the ocean one day when Typhon, a Titan, attacked them. So Aphrodite and Eros turned themselves into fish and swam away, forever connected by their maternal bond.

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.
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.

As the last sign of the zodiac, you are in conflict with yourself, as your symbol suggests--two fish locked in tension, forever pulling each other in opposite directions. This can represent the personality tied to the soul, and indeed one seems to be swallowing the other. Your motto is either serve, or suffer. And if you lean more toward the spiritual side, your rewards are huge, for you are the most sensitive and psychic sign in the horoscope.

Each zodiac sign comes from one of the constellations. Pisces is a constellation designated by a drawing of a fish (how the ancients saw the constellation).
Think of the big dipper - a constellation. We also call it the Great Bear.

You are a sympathetic person who feels deeply for others. You are very sensitive and understanding when it comes to your friends and you show them lots of kindness and compassion. You love music and art and can get lost in a movie. You tend to be shy and quiet, but you have a great memory and sense of humor.
You tend to blame yourself for everything that goes wrong and often have way too much self-pity. You can become needy of others - especially when you are feeling insecure. Your friends love you and will do anything for you, but they wish you could see how wonderful you truly are!
