Aries and Pisces
Fire meets water · Beginning and end of the zodiac
Pisces and Aries are neighbours in the zodiac: Pisces closes the circle, Aries opens it. One feels, the other acts – a tender, unequal combination in which a great deal of care and a great deal of misunderstanding are possible.
First encounter
Pisces perceives Aries as a force that impresses and slightly overwhelms them; Aries perceives Pisces as a gentleness that calms and slightly baffles them. The attraction is one of protection and courage: Aries wants to protect Pisces, Pisces wants to understand Aries. Each experiences the other as a world that would otherwise stay closed to them – and that is precisely what makes them curious.
What connects you
Both are spontaneous, each in their own way: Aries follows the impulse, Pisces the mood. Both are big-hearted and forgive easily. Aries gives Pisces support and direction when they lose themselves in possibilities; Pisces gives Aries empathy and the inkling that not everything has to be conquered. In good moments they complement each other like deed and dream: Aries makes real what Pisces imagines, and Pisces lends meaning to what Aries does.
Where it rubs
Aries is loud, direct and fast, Pisces is quiet, indirect and flowing – Aries rolls over them without noticing, and Pisces sidesteps without saying so. What is plain speaking for Aries lands as harshness with Pisces; what is consideration for Pisces, Aries experiences as evasion. Aries wants decisions, Pisces wants time. The translation: Aries softens the tone, Pisces says out loud what they need – before they withdraw.
Frequently asked questions

Why are Pisces and Aries considered the beginning and the end?
The zodiac begins with Aries at the spring equinox and ends with Pisces. Symbolically, dissolving and beginning anew meet here – two transitional signs with very different temperatures.
