Pisces symbols and tattoo elements explained

The Fish are not your sole option when getting a Pisces tattoo. Here are the Pisces elements to give your ink some twists. 

• Pisces glyph
• Pisces sign symbol: the Fish

The word Pisces is the translation of the Fish in Latin. The Pisces symbol is two fish swimming in opposite directions. It depicts the two gifts of Pisces: the ability to smooth difficult situations and their spiritual power. It can also represent their struggle to balance their world and the real world.

• Pisces constellation
• Pisces birth flower: Water lily

Water lilies are beautiful aquatic flowers. They grow and thrive in calm waters. They float above the water and root deeply in it, connecting the two worlds. 

Similarly, Pisces is known to be the bridge between reality and spirituality. Being the last zodiac sign, Pisces is drawn to mysteries, after-lives, and things from the other world.

• Pisces sign element: Water

Water signs are known to be intuitive and emotional. As for Pisces, their governing element gives them a powerful imagination. But they sometimes struggle to balance between things that are happening in the real world and in their head.

• Pisces ruling planet: Neptune

Being the God of the sea, Neptune governs imagination and intuition. With the influence of Neptune, Pisceans are less “on the ground.” They take risks and explore the possibilities.  

• Neptune glyph

Water lily is the birth flower of the Pisces sign. Both strongly associated with water, the flower represents the connection between two different worlds – the underwater and the one above water. Just like the flower, Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac circle. It’s considered as the link between the real world and the spiritual world.

Colors make a tattoo pop, and this Pisces tattoo is living proof. For example, if you observe the tail of the purple fish closely, you will find a range of blue and purple. It represents both the technique and the aesthetics of the artist.
