Pisces is the oldest star sign of the zodiac, born between February 19 and March 20, and representing the ages of 77 to 84, the very last journey of life. The Piscean baby arrives to your arms from another world; a world of mystical fantasy and capable of seeing much which others can't. 

They strive for harmonious lives, avoiding conflict even while steadfastly refusing to be diverted from their way. They have a soft charm to them and their loved ones always take precedence over material possessions. Get ready for that expensive toy to be ditched in favour of your lap, with them guiding your arms to encircle them. And don't be surprised if the dog is a far greater source of amusement than the latest Lego set. 

People and animals are at the heart of the Piscean. Yell or show excessive anger and they will wilt. When guidance is required, you'll need to show them a tender side while remaining firm. There is nothing worse for a sensitive Piscean than disapproval so choose your words carefully and they will thrive. Go too much the other way and you'll find your Pisces moving away from you later, while remaining in their dreamland.

They also love physical affection and praise more than other star signs; they connect it to feeling worthy and are empowered to be their best when shown love. 

You might find they gravitate towards creative pursuits and water sports. Being one of the most imaginative signs of the zodiac, they will love to plunge themselves into role play, dancing, singing and painting. And being the sign of the fish, the Pisces child is at home in water.

They are sensitive, romantic and fun-loving, making them popular on the playground and kind and caring towards the underdog.

Whatever you don't try to destroy their idealism in favour of brutal realism. The world is filled with all kinds of people that help give balance and perspective and it would be a much less diverse place without the dreamers and creatives.

Value deeply their contribution to a more colourful world and they will rise to throw off their innate insecurity, to be among the most self-possessed and purposeful.

Reading books about human emotion with them will help them understand their very complex and varied feelings and learn to manage them.

The Piscean can get carried away on flights of fancy, and schedules are foreign to their natures so they tend to make everyone late, or keep people waiting. On this front they will need compassion and patience.
