Alright, Storm Chasers, we’re about to enter the rabbit hole—the Sun is moving into Pisces (February 18 – March 20), and you’d better believe it’s about to get weird. Pisces season is like The Matrix—a place where nothing is quite what it seems, reality is up for interpretation, and you have to decide whether you want to keep sleepwalking through life (blue pill) or wake up to the truth (red pill). Either way, once you’re in, you’re in. So grab your trench coat, channel your inner Neo, and let’s navigate this Neptunian dreamscape together.
Pisces Season: A Glitch in the System
Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, which means this isn’t about kicking off new projects or bulldozing forward like an Aries on three espressos. Instead, it’s about reflection, closure, and surrender—which, let’s be honest, is probably not what you wanted to hear. But hear me out: Pisces is like Morpheus handing you the red pill and saying, “Welcome to the real world.”
This is a season of letting go—of outdated beliefs, toxic relationships, and that three-month situationship you swear is going to change. (It’s not. Pisces season is here to show you the truth—no matter how much you try to romanticize it.)
The Neptunian Fog: Are You Living in a Simulation?
Pisces is ruled by Neptune, the planet of dreams, illusions, and deception. In The Matrix, Neo learns that everything he believed to be real was merely a construct—a manufactured reality designed to keep him docile. Sound familiar? That’s Pisces energy at its peak—blurring the lines between what’s real and what’s imagined, making you question everything. Are you following your intuition, or are you just lost in a fantasy? Are your relationships built on something solid, or are you projecting qualities onto someone that aren’t really there?
Practical tip: Before making major life choices, ask yourself—am I making decisions based on fact or illusion? Pisces season makes everything feel poetic, but poetry doesn’t pay the rent.
How to Work With the Sun in Pisces (Instead of Letting It Work You Over)
- The Art of Letting Go (a.k.a. Stop Resisting the Flow)
Pisces isn’t about brute force; it’s about surrender. This is not the time to force things to happen—especially things that clearly aren’t working. If Neo had insisted on clinging to his old life, he would’ve stayed in the Matrix, completely unaware that there was a much bigger reality waiting for him.
Your game plan: Let go of what’s keeping you stuck. If something is draining you more than it’s feeding you, it’s probably not meant for you.
Motivational takeaway: Not all endings are failures. Sometimes, they’re just making room for the next chapter.
- Master the Art of Discernment (a.k.a. Don’t Get Cyphered)
Remember Cypher? The guy who betrayed everyone because he wanted to go back into the Matrix and eat his fake steak in peace? That’s Pisces’ shadow side—choosing illusion over truth because it’s easier. Be careful of people (or situations) that promise you the world but can’t back it up.
Your game plan: Double-check everything. Is that opportunity legit, or is someone selling you a dream? Is that person being honest, or are they just telling you what you want to hear? Trust your intuition, but back it up with facts.
Motivational takeaway: The truth may be uncomfortable, but it will always set you free.
- Strengthen Your Boundaries (Because Pisces Season Is a Free-for-All)
Pisces energy is boundaryless. That’s great for creativity and deep emotional connections—but it’s a disaster if you’re prone to energy vampires, guilt trips, or saying yes when you really want to say no.
Your game plan: Protect your energy. If you’re feeling emotionally drained, you’re probably over-giving. Check in with yourself before automatically saying yes to things.
Motivational takeaway: You are not obligated to rescue everyone. Prioritize your well-being first.
- Follow Your Intuition (But Keep One Foot on the Ground)
Pisces season is prime time for intuitive hits, synchronicities, and dreams that actually mean something. Just like Neo had to trust his instincts when dodging bullets, you need to tune in and listen to your gut. But remember, intuition works best when grounded in reality.
Your game plan: Keep a dream journal. If you feel drawn to something, sit with it for a while before making big moves. Intuition works best when it’s combined with common sense.
Motivational takeaway: The best decisions come from a balance of heart and head. Don’t let one overrule the other.
- Tap Into Your Creativity (or at Least Get a Little Weird)
Pisces rules music, film, poetry, and all things artistic. If you’ve been feeling creatively blocked, this is your time. Channel your inner Morpheus and think outside the box. What if reality isn’t as fixed as you thought? What if your creative work can change the way you see the world?
Your game plan: Experiment. Get lost in something imaginative—watch films, listen to music, create without judgment.
Motivational takeaway: Your creative expression doesn’t have to be “good” to be valuable. Just let it flow.
- Make Peace With the Past (Before Aries Season Kicks the Door Down)
Pisces season is the final chapter of the zodiac—it’s where we integrate everything we’ve learned before the Sun blazes into Aries and demands action. If you’re feeling nostalgic, emotional, or even a little lost, that’s normal. Just like Neo confronting the Architect, you’re facing everything that led you to this moment.
Your game plan: Forgive yourself. Forgive others (but don’t forget). Release what you’re still carrying. Aries season will bring fresh starts, but you don’t want to drag old baggage with you.
Motivational takeaway: The past is a lesson, not a life sentence. Learn from it, and move forward.
Final Thoughts: Take the Red Pill
Pisces season isn’t here to make life easy—it’s here to make you see the truth. Whether it’s about your relationships, career, or personal beliefs, something will be revealed. The question is: Will you wake up to it (red pill) or stay lost in the fog (blue pill)?
Either way, once Aries season rolls in, the energy will shift, and you’ll wish you had used this time wisely. So, lean into the dreamworld, but don’t get lost in it. Trust your intuition, set strong boundaries, and let go of what’s weighing you down. Because once you wake up—there’s no going back.
