1 Minute Astrology - Virgo And Pisces… Coach John Wooden Bridging The Gap
1 minute astrology
(from 2008) Virgo and Pisces often spar but are inexplicably linked. Does everything matter or does nothing matter? What if your life is at stake?

Yay, the video worked! I’ve been thinking about similar things. The idea that “everything matters” really scares me. It’s similar to saying that there are multiple truths/meanings and therefore no possibility of meaning at all. Like how Tolstoy in War and Peace debunks the possibility of saying “this caused the war” or “Napoleon’s decision brought this about” because so many details and decisions coalesce. This scared me too.
Yesterday my dad talked to me about how Albert Einstein thought of religion. He knew there was a great amount that the human mind can’t understand and, I guess, thought God is in the things one can’t explain, though not a personal God or anything. I think his quotes say what he means best. I have a question about this, but can’t seem to formulate it.
I want to know all Gods thoughts; all the rest are just details.

I have a Piscean friend who is also very concerned with issues of religion/faith and where she stands on them. I think there are other things to consider than your religious preference. It’s like puzzling about your sexual orientation all day. Why does it matter so much what one’s stance on God is, Pisces?
I am all Pisces/Virgo so this question…it is my life. lol. Einstein is one of my favorite people in terms or thoughts on religion. To me, his religious writing epitomize the Pisces aesthetic on spirituality.
feet are a big deal. grounding. our only near constant contact with physical reality. we can be floating along but the feet still have to carry us.
and if you have to run you better take damn good care of your feet. i can’t even express how deep a sense of security i get from having steel toes.
everything matters. and it’s all nothing. if you choose to let it be.
it’s all about where the mind chooses to rest.
not that i know anything ![]()
Speaking of Pisces and feet, the first thing I thought of when I saw this post was how satori once commented that her feet gain weight..
So much lies in the details, doesn’t it? I’ve noticed that many of us are learning lessons around this. I’d never thought about the importance of well-laced sport shoes until now. Still, the same attention to details carries over in handspinning — a plied yarn with a good hand and balanced twist is in the details. Great topic.
wow I never thought that about shoes and laces that way. Im not sure of my thoughts on this topic. I suppose because Im in place in my life where i’ve been questioning this myself for sometime …does everything matter or nothing…I think its both. Doh i dont know.
Pisces rising and Mars conjunct Neptune - No wonder I have no idea about this
But aren’t all of the oppositions inexplicably linked? Are Pisces and virgo that much more tied than scorpio/taurus? cancer/cap?
Best.
Yes, all signs that oppose are linked, I just see Pisces (very frequently) criticizing the living shit out of Virgo… oh the irony. This more than Aquarius critiquing Leo for example.
Virgo disrespecting Pisces is common as well.
Also when I made this video, the opposition was highlighted in the sky. These videos are recycled at the moment because I am not in a position to make anything new.
I dunno, I’m inclined to say everything matters … except sometimes, nothing does.
Not very clear, I know, but there it is.
Oh thanks for that. I was wondering because it seemed that they are mentioned quite a bit in this way. My Pisces SO and other pisces friends do critize but not strictly towards Virgo’s…I find myself (leo) and my pisces friends SO’s are the aim often enough…or any of the people they are with. It’s quite surprising actually…because it is done under the guise of love. I suppose it could be seen as an expression of love…I just had a realization on one thing my SO critiques me about, but now knowing the history of why, I hope to be more understanding. I learned this history from his wonderful pisces friend whom I love. He’s just awesome (and his critique is valid to a point).
I’m trying to go to the depths with this sign, and understanding where they come from really helps.
I was thinking a few months ago how I often find my outlook more aquarian than leonine….
I just see Pisces (very frequently) criticizing the living shit out of Virgo… oh the irony…Virgo disrespecting Pisces is common as well.
Bizarre, isn’t it? I think it’s Mercury and Neptune. The Mercury-spawned critical analysis gets mirrored back by idealistic Neptune (who’s actually a better debater than we usually recognize) and a sort of endless cycle starts. Each side is flexible and imaginative enough to counter the other’s position…for years on end, sometimes.
I’m one of the Pisceans who keep falling for Virgo/Mercury…I hate to admit this, but I swear the only thing that has kept one or two my past Virgo relationships together is back-and-forth debate and bickering. I know I can make him see the larger picture, if I just keep trying new tactics.
(By the way, I’d have been completely bonkers ten minutes into an hour-long shoelacing lecture, and I’m not kidding!)
Shoelace lecture, bonkers, this double Pisces Rising agrees with that, anyway, my mother and I have the opposite rising signs, she is Virgo and I am Pisces and this feels like the strongest point of astrological energy between us and always has. She details me to death and I am such a natural flake and space right over things…she even sometimes thinks I am faking it when I’m not.
But the title here is so interesting, and here is why it grabbed me. My mother told me the first thing that went through her head the first time she ever saw me was “I wonder what she is thinking.” She has later indicated that she never did quite ‘get me’ & doesn’t expect she ever will. I feel possible as I do think it would be impossible to ‘get me’ its like I have all these veils & it’s not contrived, it’s just the way it is.
Anyway, when I made mom a scrapbook earlier in the year, I made one page called “Neptune baby.”
I found a very blurry b&w photo of myself in a crib like 1 day old, and my mother sitting from behind the crib, and the photo shows her in part through the bars and in part looking over the bars of the crib, at the camera. I appear to be looking at the ceiling. Even as blurry as the photo is, one can still make out who it is , but it is like, while the baby is ultra blurry, the mother behind it, is blurry in a clearer & different kind of way.
On the bottom of the page it says:
Neptune baby taught mom: The only thing that matters is love.
Mercury mother taught baby: Everything matters, especially love.
The page also had a collage all over it with this and that and little pieces of mirror in my very Neptune approach to art. I was so surprised, shocked, when a couple of months later she told me that was her favorite page in the whole scrapbook.
Very interesting to me, Virgo/Pisces this is my North/South Node, 11th/5th houses. I feel more in control of my life when I concentrate on the details, and this is hard for me, so much easier for me to day-dream.
Oh Loonsounds, what a sweet story!
On the journey everything matters but at the end nothing does. So, while we are walking, fighting, or playing, we better get good shoes, but at the end of the day, or the battle, or the game, we can take them off ![]()
And we don’t need to sleep in our shoes - unless it’s not over yet.
This is the most complex question to answer and as a Virgo, it is very hard for me to write and explain this in few words..So here is just one part…
Do something to perfection everything matters.
Details create a smooth flowing motion that appears to be effortless.
So it looks like Nothing matters and it just happens. EX. of the coach and the shoes…
Today my boyfriend was looking at pictures and he said “You have the same expression in every picture.”
In my youth I went to a finishing school. The first activity to learn is smiling.
First you were put in front of a mirror and asked to smile. You had to feel the muscles in your face and know exactly how far to have your lip in proportion to your teeth. Relaxed open eyes.
You did this over & over & over again.
You added other activities to it walking, posing
turning. Every single action took several steps to master and hours to practice.
At the end when you were ready for the cat walk and ready to compete.
The instructor could snap his fingers and say smile ladies, walk, turn, photo, sad, walk, turn, stop, pose. Etc…
Happy smile, energy smile etc…
The end product looked easy and it flowed..
Your job was to be perfect. Perfection requires you to operate like a piece of machinery, a Everything matters
Loonsounds - that is beautiful.
I’m Pisces and my younger sister is Virgo. We’ve been fighting all our lives. But lately I realized we’ve much more a like than I thought.
Also, as we’ve got older, we get a long much better. When we were younger I was the one who always bored her with responsibility and thinking of everything. She was carefree, not a perfectionist at all. But now it’s like we changed roles. I stopped being a big sister, and am more carefree than her. She was always this big kid, but now she’s a real Virgo. She takes care of her home and every detail in it, and I’m more messy, even though I was perfectly tidy teenager.:)
Interesting thing is we are both Scorpio rising, with Scorpio moon conj. our Asc.
