Are you lucky enough to be born between February 19 and March 20? Congrats! You’re definitely a Pisces! And as a card-carrying member of the 12th zodiac sign, you might be a compassionate, empathetic, practical yet imaginative human being who feels deeply connected to all the things around them. 
Here’s a quick primer on Pisces, including the history and meaning of the water sign and jewelry gifts for yourself or your fellow Pisces pals. 

significance & spirit of Pisces jewelry

Pisces contain multitudes. The word itself means “fishes.” And two fish swimming in opposing directions tethered by a cord symbolize the duality of a Pisces — that yin and yang, push and pull, the fantasy and the reality. There’s creativity and imagination grounded by practicality. Generosity that’s tempered by moodiness. Empathy that converges with standoffishness. Like any astrology sign there are the good traits and the less-than-stellar ones. 
Not only is the Pisces constellation one of the earliest identified, but its fish symbol is also integrated into the Jewish and Christian faiths. Additionally, Pisces seems to be one of the most co-opted astrology symbols in culture, appearing in the lyrics of songs, poetry and movies.
