Pisces - Legends and History |
|
|
|
The two fishes of Pisces date back to
the dawn of civilisation on the banks of the Euphrates river. In
the temples of the goddess Atagartis and her son- lover, Ichthys,
there were sacred fish ponds. Like Christ, Ichthys died and was
reborn. There are many links between this pagan cult and Christianity
- Christ, the Fisher of Men, was known as Ichthys - fish - in early
Christian times. In astrology, the last two thousand years have
been the Age of Pisces and the conjunction of the two great planets,
Jupiter and Saturn, which occurred in Pisces, may have been the
Star of Bethlehem. Pisces lies between Aquarius and Aries on the
zodiac band. |
