Committing to beautiful, Pisces skin…
No one would ever accuse you of being rigid or regimented! If your skin-care regimen borders on the haphazard, apply a little military precision to your system and your complexion will thank you for it. Once you find products that work for you, commit to using them consistently, every day and in the same order. That gives the products a chance to work. You don’t even have to resort to trial and error because beauty companies have already taken out the guesswork. You can find prepackaged kits that target aging, sensitive skin, breakouts, dry skin, and more.
Luxe up your sneaker game Pisces…
The right shoe can make or break an outfit, but perhaps pointy stilettos make your feet ache. You need yours to be comfy, so how lucky is it that the latest trend is sneakers! Try to work some bulkier kicks with your shorter dresses or cutoffs, and maybe even go for high-tops if you’re feeling good. If you have legs that go to there, pair a mini with lace-up high-top high heels! High-end patchworks of textures, colors, and materials were made for billowy skirts. And tailored athletic wear is on-trend for men, mixing up neoprene, jersey, and leather. It’s okay to wear those luxe sneakers to dinner!
Learn to protect your spongy-like nature…
Ordinarily, empathy is a good thing. You should know—Pisces has it by the bucketful! But it can also be draining. You know how you feel when you see someone being chewed out. You aren’t the one being reamed, but you still feel it in your gut! That secondhand stress can actually be bad for you. The knot in your stomach or sense of low-grade anxiety can increase your blood pressure and even contribute to heart disease! To protect yourself, meditate, exercise, or learn a few relaxation techniques that you can draw upon when the need arises.
Helping others is the Fish´s specialty…
You are the very essence of compassion. Nobody else can match the Pisces capacity for sacrifice. If it’s a cause you care about or an ideal you uphold, you’ll work tirelessly on its behalf. Perhaps your day-to-day job leaves you feeling unfulfilled—it pays the bills and stimulates your mind, but doesn’t stir your soul. If your company is involved in a community program that benefits animals, food banks, wildlife, medical research, or other worthy cause, get involved. Help plan events or staff a booth at the walk-a-thon. Do good for the company, society, and yourself!
Spotting Pisces´ main weakness…
Your sympathy extends to anyone in need, pain, or difficulty. You tend to ailing plants and hungry animals with tenderness and love. You’re impressionable and softhearted. Take care that you don’t cross the line into gullible, or take on other people’s issues as your own. Unfortunately, not every plea for help is an honest one (you only have to look through today’s spam to find that out). If you give away all of your assets—tangible (money, the shirt off your back) as well as intangible (emotions)—there will be nothing left for you. Take care!
This is no time for daydreaming…
If you are interviewing for a new job, be up-front about what you want. Most employers really do want their employees to be satisfied with their jobs because then they will be at their most productive. Perhaps there are certain perks or job requirements or workplace conditions that are very important to you. Don’t just assume that you will or won’t get them—speak up. Otherwise, you could arrive at your new job on day one and discover it wasn’t what you thought you’d agreed to at all!
This stunning Pisces has a heart of gold…
Former House star Olivia Wilde may seem like an overnight success, but she’s been acting for over a decade. And with experience comes wisdom, “I know which way I’d actually like to continue and what really isn’t true to me,” she says.
And compassion is a big part of that. Her charitable company, Conscious Commerce, encourages people to shop from companies that are doing good, such as Tom’s of Maine. It also partners companies with charities for limited-run products. “It’s our attempt to live and exist and shop in [an] enlightened way.” She’s also a founding member of Artists for Peace and Justice, dedicated to raising money for medical care, education, and food and water programs in Haiti. Making the world a better place… so Pisces!
Fate was written in this Pisces’ stars…
At age 19, Ansel Elgort has only a few films under his belt, but that won’t last long because of his work as Caleb Prior in Divergent and Augustus Waters in the film adaptation of John Green’s young-adult best-seller The Fault in Our Stars.
The roles weren’t accidents. The son of a fashion photographer and opera director, Ansel (named for Ansel Adams) took ballet and singing lessons, performed in musical theater, and attended Stagedoor Manor drama camp for seven years. “You take one step at a time and then eventually you get to star in a big movie…. that’s why I am starting to believe in luck.” It’s all coming together for this rising star!
This red carpet winner is also a wise Fish!
Born in Mexico City, Lupita Nyong’o was destined to be a star. As a child she told her mother elaborate stories about her day at school. Later, the Yale Drama School prepped this Pisces beauty for acting, but it’s her sensitivity that has allowed her to respond so passionately to the people and situations around her. Her role as Patsey in 12 Years a Slave propelled her onto the world’s radar.
And she’s wise beyond her years: “You go to acting school thinking you’re going to learn how to be other people, but really, it taught me how to be myself. It’s in understanding yourself deeply that you can lend yourself to another person’s circumstances and another person’s experience.”
This lovely Pisces knows the art of self-TLC…
Edge of Tomorrow star Emily Blunt has acted in nearly 30 films—and that doesn’t even include her radio, television, and stage work! So how does a hardworking star take it easy? She loves naps in her hammock. “My dad used to swing my brothers and sisters and me in one under the apple tree.”
She massages her tired feet—her mother is a trained reflexologist, “and she’d practice on the family.” She also watches TV—The Voice, because it “embraces talented people who need a chance,”—and she cooks pasta. She discovered cacio e pepe, or peasant pasta, when living in Rome. “It’s just spaghetti with butter, cheese and black pepper—the greatest meal in the world.” That’s amore!
