pisces tattoo designThe last of the twelve signs of the zodiac is Pisces.  Representing those  born between February 20th and March 20th., Pisces is illustrated as two fish swimming around each other while linked together.

The fish are a natural choice for Pisces tattoo design. They represent the dual nature of Pisces and their swimming in opposition are perfect for someone who feels manipulated by strongly opposing forces.  Greek mythology states that the fish represent how Aphrodite and her son Eros turned themselves into dolphins to example they monster Typhon.  they tied their tales together so that they wouldn’t lose each other while swimming in the impenetrable darkness of the deep   Zeus rewarded their efforts by placing them amongst the stars as the constellation Pisces.

A bold yet simplistic Pisces tattoo design idea is the glyph.  It looks similar to a letter H with the vertical lines appearing more like brackets or parenthesis facing away from each other.

Pisces is a water element sign, with Neptune as its ruling planet.  While the planet is not exceptionally distinguished by rings or the like, the blue planet can still be worked into a design that incorporates other Pisces imagery.

Pisces personality traits include emotional, artistic, sympathetic and imaginative.  They are easy-going and kind.  They may be misconstrued as apathetic or irrational, but these skilled mediators are spiritual individuals who embrace inner growth.
