Pisces
When you’re a Pisces, you love to get lost. Travelling Pisces style means going with the flow, allowing yourself to absorb and mingle with whatever happens to be going around. Though Pisces has an almost manic need to plan, once the idea is planted and the intention is there, Pisces is happy to get carried by the wind. Travel à la Pisces is a fluid thing. Water views, while preferred, are an optional extra.
On the one hand, Pisces often has a mystical bent. They love out of the way places, mysteries and the possibilities of ‘The Otherworld’. Which, of course, suggests that there is something very kosher about a Piscean trip to Cornwall. Replete with dells, wizards and crashing surf, this is the perfect part of England for Pisces to get comfortably numb. Anywhere in the West Country equally suits. The legend of Avalon hangs mistily in the air. A Pisces is to Glastonbury town what a fish is to a chip. On a similar vein, Pisces can do the Scottish West Coast and Gaelic standing stones equally well. If it’s wet, weird and slightly confusing then it has a Pisces kind of travel diversion written all over it.
Another Pisces quality is the willingness to mingle and relate. They also have a love of anything musical and intoxicating that is interesting to behold. If there’s a jingle and some drinking involved, Pisces won’t be too far away. Many Pisces excel at understanding human foibles, having so many of their own. Pisces love a yarn, and can spend many a contented evening trilling folk songs in the comfort of some out of the way Scottish bar. In an instant, they can totally absorb the tribulations endured by Robert the Bruce, and weep sweetly at the thought of a tragic ending to a love affair. They know a bonnie lass when one comes calling, and can pipe Danny Boy from glen to glen and down the mountain side. They are also quite partial to a tipple and will happily partake of a wee dram or three if that is what it takes to keep the conviviality alive.
Of course, not all Pisceans are drunkards and drones. There is also the Pisces type who is frightfully artistic. In this sense, Pisceans thrive on transcendental artforms. Opera, music and ballet come close to Pisces heaven, as do difficult foreign film festivals and obscure photographic exhibitions. A Pisces in London must do The Tate, The Barbicon and White Cube. They must also swan around Covent Garden for the Royal Opera and Ballet. Pisces have a penchant for all things abstract and other-dimensional so will feel quite at home decoding the semantic circumambulations on show for the Turner Prize.
Traveling Pisces style can be a kooky affair. All chaos and emotion, they simultaneously need some kind of structure and a plan. Pisces are always friends with the unexpected and make ideal voyagers in the esoteric and out-of-this-world.
