Pisces - Medical Astrology Sun Sign PISCES (February 19 - March 20):

When the Zodiac was created, it wasn't created equal and guess what? The sign with the most fragile and delicate state of health is YOU!! Which means you can come down most frequently with colds or flu! Boo! Hiss! It's not fair, is it? But cheer up, Pisces, because there are lots of natural ways you can "buck up" that lymph gland system (part of our immune system) of yours and not contract every cold and flu that comes around in the future! Every sign has a weak spot, and yours, Pisces, is your lymph gland system. Just what the heck IS a lymph gland system??? Picture this: you're aware that we all have a circulatory system that our red blood cells use as a highway (our arteries and veins) to get from here to there. There's a heart with it, that pumps, so the red blood cells get around very easily and quickly. Our lymph system "shadows" our circulatory system within our body. It has it's own tubular system just like the circulatory one, does. However, the major difference between them is: this system doesn't have a heart to pump the white blood cells around with in order for them to get from here to there! The white blood cells don't have a formula one racer (the heart) like red blood cells do. Instead, the lymph gland system has to rely upon a tractor-like conveyance to get around--exercise! Yep, that's right, the muscles of our body, as they contract and squeeze tight, also work to move white blood cells along the highway system of your lymph glands. In essence, the muscles are the "heart" of the lymph gland system. So, exercise is vastly important to you, Pisces and if all things were equal, you'd rather sit than work out and break a sweat! However, you have a saving grace: You love to swim. Water is your medium, so swimming is one of the BEST ways to "massage" your lymph gland system because all the muscles of the body are used in this form of exercise! The lymph gland system does another highly important thing to maintain good health in all of us: It picks up dead cells, debris as a by-product of the body and collects poisons and toxins. Once they are collected, they are either gotten rid of via urinating or having a bowel movement. The "collectors" however, is our lymph gland system. So, you can begin to appreciate that MOVEMENT is essential to good health. Pisces just isn't an avid exerciser. But the good new is: You don't' have to be! If you swim a couple times a week, or go for a walk daily, this will do it. IF you want to pamper yourself, MASSAGE is a wonderful way for the Pisces person to maintain their health because massage of the muscles automatically means movement in the lymph gland system. Your health is completely predicated upon your emotional structure, Pisces. You are one of the most highly emotional signs in the zodiac (Cancer is second and Scorpio is third), and your health or lack of it is directly tied to your feelings. Another way to maintain health for you is to have foot reflexology performed weekly, if you can afford it. Pisces health is directly connected to their feet--and this is a weak point in you--is your feet. Chances are you've had more injuries to this part of your body than any other! Bruises, cuts, scrapes, and maybe even surgery. Many Pisces have bunions; but don't have them surgically removed or this is asking for more trouble!! Pisces have all kinds of foot problems, including "fungus amongus"--a nonmedical term for Athlete's foot! Homeopathic remedies can take care of this problem, thank goodness! All in all, Pisces, if you continue to let out your emotions, as this is healthy for you. Have a good cry! Take a walk when the sun is rising or setting. Stay in tune with yourself for you have the best instincts and inner knowing than any other zodiac sign. Your body will "talk" to you and tell you what food it wants on a daily basis--so trust it--and yourself. Meditation and yoga are perfect health producers for you--so try them out. Swimming is wonderful for you, if there's a pool nearby. And even if there isn't, and you've had a "bad hair day" at the office, go soak yourself in a nice tub of warm, fragrant water that evening and you'd be surprised how much better you feel afterward! All of these are health tips for you.
