Pisces rising with ruler Jupiter in it’s own sign (Sagittarius) in it’s own house (9th) can tell a story, make no mistake.

“P, come here,” he said. “I want to show you this.” He was holding a small black case with metal trim. Sort of a small attach© case.”

“Yeah, what’s in there?”

“Open it.”

I unhooked the clasps, lifted the lid and it was full of cash. Coins, that is. “What is this?” I asked.

“That’s my treasure,” he said. “Doesn’t that look like a treasure to you? Like maybe a pirate lost it or something?”

“Well, yeah.”

“Well this is how and where I keep my change. I do it because it makes me think of you,” he said.

“How?”

“Well you know how I’m always saying I wished we’d met when we were kids? Real kids. Little kids, like maybe 8 and 10.”

“Yeah.”

“Well we’d have been friend for sure and can you imagine if I found something like this when I was 10 years old? I’d have been so happy. I’d have been dancing in the street with this much money. Look at it, P!” he said, pouring the coins through his fingers. “Boy, I’d have been a pig in slop with all this and you know the first thing I’d do… well I bring it over to your house! I wouldn’t tell anybody else, you know. I gotta tell P!”

I laughed.

“Yeah. So I’d have my treasure and I’d be sure it used to belong to some old dead pirate so I would run all the way over to your house carrying it so I could show it to you. P! P! Look what I got! We’re rich!”

I laughed manically.

“Yeah, and you’d have come out and you’d have been impressed. And we’d have done something with that money too. We’d have gone somewhere. We’d have done something.”

“Like what?”

“I don’t know. But whatever it was I bet it would have been exciting. We’d have gotten a thrill for sure. Shoot! With this kind of fortune? You’d have been turning cartwheels and I’d have been jumping up and down. Cause this is just how we are, P. We’re both like this. We like adventure, especially the kind you get off a dead pirate.”
