Combined Western and Chinese Zodiacs
Pisces Dragon

The final sign in the Western zodiac is the metaphorical octogenarian, the dreamer Pisces. This is traditionally a time of contemplation, as the psyche prepares to let go of corporeal existence. Pisces have a special appreciation for creativity, beauty, and individual experience, set against the vastness of time and space. Simple shared occasions can, for these generous and empathic souls, convey universal significance as cherished moments of intimacy and belonging. Admittedly, the often extreme sensitivity of Pisces does involve some challenges. The variable element of Water is at its most inconstant in the Mutable modality of this sign. Pisces can be unreliable if tasked with work they consider a waste of their aesthetic ideals. They are easily overawed by crowds or complex emotional cross-currents, and can be dangerously prone to escapism or isolation. However, if Pisces and those close to them are able to navigate this sign's sensitivity and changeability, then their innate wisdom and perspective promises much happiness and aesthetic achievement.

The fifth and only mythical sign in the Eastern zodiac is the awe-inspiring dragon. So desirable are the traits of the Dragon native that birthrates are known to spike throughout Asia when a Dragon year arrives. Folk born under this sign are true movers and shakers—captivating, exuberant, and proud. They tend to be physically robust, and can often seem to have a Midas touch, they are so good at anticipating and attracting good fortune to their causes. The lives of Dragon souls are rarely calm. They can have a polarizing effect on those around them, and are sometimes so tempestuous and hard to tie down that they leave a trail of disappointment in their wake. But even enemies are likely to secretly admire these stunning creatures. For nowhere is the Dragon more comfortable than center stage, and in their triumphs they reflect their glory onto anyone and everyone who bears witness.
