Pisces and Escape. Are you an escape artist?
posted 1 year ago in General
I tend to just escape from the police after someone has hurt me.

I wish I could react to things more logically than emotionally, for damn sure. I have more Leo than the average Pisces and my mars is in Aries, so while I do LOVE escape as much as the next fish, confrontation doesn't scare me.
I just wish I could not take things so personally, some times - maybe that's the addition of Leo talking. I get very defensive.
EDIT: Well, I guess I an say I do tend to turn a blind eye and pretend things aren't happening until I'm ready to deal with them. Like bills. When the bills get out of hand and the month is tight, I kind of pretend it doesn't exist until I know the situation can be handled, because otherwise I just fret and stress myself out. I never let it go to the "too late" point, but I conciously hide from it until I know I have the tools to work with.
I have a 12th house sun with neptune aspects, so a bit pisces, I guess. I can do either, as I also have merc/mars in my 1st. I do need some down/alone time to process what's happened, but it can come before or after I face it. Sometimes I need to escape before I deal with it, so as to give myself a chance to really get in touch with how I feel about what's happened. Other times, my merc/mars just takes over and I deal with how I feel later, alone, in private.

Do you tend to escape when you are hurt, insulted or slighted?
Yes. Cap Moon doesn't want to admit when she feels sligthed. Moon/Uranus: people often don't understand why my feelings are hurt. Moon/Chiron: often a wound feels like the original wound, and I think--no one needs to see this.
Do you have Pisces strongly in your chart?
No. Though I do have a strongly aspected Neptune in my 12th House.
Do you wish you could handle these issues straight away or does escaping help you?
Yes, I do. I'm working very hard on this very thing, these days. I'm making progress but it's hard to be vulnerable, with my history of having my pain ignored/disregarded.
I'm trying to heal myself in order to feel more comfortable.
tbh the pisces that i know (a few from college, some family members and my mom) kind of don't really handle situations at all. they usually complain or whine and someone else takes care of it for them. my poor dad (cancer sun, cap moon) is the gopher that does all the running around, and he has to handle every "confrontation". real and imagined.
Its part of how I fight. I have mars in the 12th trine Neptune (in case you hadn't heard, lol)
I throw down smoke bombs and slip out. I create confusion and make an agressive escape which leaves my enemy wondering wtf while I'm plotting my next move.
Also, most of this is in my head. Hahahaha
In reality though, people tell me "Hey, I havn't seen you in forever." when I've seen them like two days ago. I have a great cloaking device for when I can't be bothered. I can also slip through a crowd very quickly. I always used to have to wait for my friends outside the bar for a few minutes because I could swim through the crowd much faster then they could. How Neptune/Mars is that?!
I don't have any planets in Pisces, but my IC is there. My Sagittarius Neptune is conj my AC just a few minutes inside of the 12H. My Moon-Pluto conj on my MC of course opposes my IC. And my Mars is sq my MC-IC.
I can be invisible in crowds when I want, or kinda cloak at times too, like Nota mentioned. People just won't look at me. Or if they do, I can generally prevent any interactions.
I need to be able to escape in order to organize my thoughts, feelings etc on a course of action I may be considering. I have all of my angles and 6 planets in Mutable signs. I change course A LOT! But it's the courses of action I'm working out usually in my head where I've escaped to. Once I am set on a course of action, I will follow it stubbornly with my Taurus Sun, sometimes to a fault. Partially because of my "rose-colored glasses" and partially because I want to believe that I gave my best shot and didn't run out simply because things got "complicated" or otherwise "not to plan".
Yep my dad,, 29th feb 1932, no birth time so i dont know his asc, but he has managed to avoid his emotions and intuition all his life, he even saw a spirit that he acknowledges when he was a child, by being the most logically trapped person I know and I think it may be because his neptune is in virgo? not sure but anyway, something happens he doesnt like, he just accepts it and moves on, in fact not dealing with any of it at all. Ask him about emotions, they are useless as not logical most of the time and besides, he doesnt want to feel the bad ones so doesnt bother with any of them... his mum died when he was 6 and was brought up partly family he didnt know when evacuated from london during the war, partly by his very controlling non emotional dad and partly by his 2 older sisters who till they day they died were still trying to deal with emotions relating to losing their mum and having to be mum at a young age.
Whew what a family, and I understand totally why he is this way, but it is very sad because he doesnt know real joy either ![]()
ETA in answer to the question, lol, he is an escape artist avoiding anything really, but doesnt do it in a neptunian way, but does use his feet to walk away lol his sun and mars oppose his neptune and his moon is in sagg, if the time suggested to me is correct, his moon is in 8th house.
Nota Rikon, I'm the same way! As a fellow Mars/Neptune type, I find it hilarious sneaking up on my friends, just to leave as quickly as I showed up. It's like I'm activating Ninja mode or something lol! It freaks them out completely! I also tend to get through crowds quickly as well!

I have a friend who regularly escapes when things get rough and instead of facing things head on she uses her Pisces to escape the issue and regroup until she feels ready to deal with something. I think this works for her because she does come back and deal with the issue in the end but always feel badly for her because when she escapes after a problem appears she suffers so alone until she feels better.
I thought about that sort of action and whether it is better to cool down after someone hurts you or it is better to confront then and there. I tend to get these things taken care of right there or as soon as possible and I am Pisces. I have learned that dealing with people hurting or insulting me right away lessons my suffering.
Do you tend to escape when you are hurt, insulted or slighted? Do you have Pisces strongly in your chart? Do you wish you could handle these issues straight away or does escaping help you?
