Pisces season starts February 18, 2026, and ushers in the final season of the astrological year.
It’s a little bit like Christmas in that respect; a last hurrah before Aries season kickstarts the energy.
So, you might feel that weird, chaotic, up and down, overwhelm that the festive season and New Year can create (but without the parties, gifts and time off).
Pisces is emotional, intuitive, psychic, wise, fragile, sensitive, kind and creative. Everything is felt a little more in Pisces season. Emotions are heightened. Feelings are operating at the surface.
Here’s a practical survival guide using tarot to navigate emotional overload, intuition spikes and burnout, from now until March 20.

Aries
March 21 to April 20
Tarot card for Aries for Pisces season: Three of Swords
Meaning: A wound that feels like backstabbing or betrayal will either happen or echo, and you’ll need to protect yourself and your peace of mind. Be ready to surgically remove anyone and anything showing itself to be negative, unfair, or dismissive of you.
Don’t hesitate or linger in The Second Chance Saloon… pull the trigger on folk that show your true hand to be a bad one. You are precious, warm, loving, and honest. You deserve good folk around you. Be ready to take steps to remove yourself from anyone or anything causing you pain.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Tarot card for Taurus for Pisces season: Six of Wands
Meaning: Get ready for an exuberance and optimism that feels so extreme as to be uncharacteristic that you might be tempted to dampen this down… but you shouldn’t!
Let yourself imagine beautiful visions of love, life and success. Take chances. Play a risky hand because fortune is on your side this Pisces season, trust me. Things you think you could never pull off will magically turn out perfect. You have the midas touch right now – use it!

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
Tarot card for Gemini for Pisces season: Knight of Cups
Meaning: Your love life is in focus right now. Pisces energy is going to dance all over it, tugging at your heartstrings, making you want more, making you feel vulnerable about your powers of attraction, even needy.
But, this will then reward you with beautiful intimacy and dreamed-for moments with someone who truly desires you. So, let yourself go. Let yourself be loved and, in return, tell them your deepest desires and fantasies. This could get very spicy!

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Tarot card for Cancer for Pisces season: Three of Coins
Meaning: This card reveals your heightened sensitivity to what other folk are thinking about you right now. Maybe it’s at work, or in a friendship circle, family group, or even an object of affection.
Don’t try and assume or project or predict what is on their mind and what they need or expect from you right now… just ask them. Don’t scuttle at this sideways (like a crab) either; go full frontal, head on, and ask the questions that you need answering. You are loved and admired. Stop worrying.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
Tarot card for Leo for Pisces season: The Star
Meaning: A long held, deeply felt dream or hope is in play and you’re overthinking all the things that could go wrong. This kind of mental persistent thought could actually end up attracting negative inputs and energies, so whenever the spiralling starts… stop!
Replace your worries with music, mantras, a phone call to a friend, or some guided meditation. Drown out the naysayers and stay focused on achieving your goals. You can do this, and it’s all yours for the taking. This dream can come true.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Tarot card for Virgo for Pisces season: Page of Cups
Meaning: Your inner child is awake, alert, and asking for attention, and this will manifest in the shape of emotional surges, childlike ones of longing or jealousy or anxiety.
Be patient and kind with yourself, do not let the inner judge have sway over your self talk. Instead, mother yourself. Be the nurturer and carer for your tiny inner person who is feeling some kind of way about something, maybe an old wound from the past that is now ready to be re-examined, cleaned, and healed fully.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Tarot card for Libra for Pisces season: Eight of Wands
Meaning: You’re going to be feeling very FOMO about your social life and everything going on around you. I guess Pisces season is festive, being the finale of the astrological calendar, and that vibe will speak to you. So, don’t overdo it. Don’t over-commit yourself because then you won’t all the wonders you’ve signed up for.
Let it be one big thing a week, and no more. Focus and prioritise where your time and energy is best spent, rewarded, and served. Don’t feel like you have to do everything on offer… you really, really don’t.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
Tarot card for Scorpio for Pisces season: Queen of Swords
Meaning: This has you feeling irritated and impatient with folk who aren’t as robust, fast, or capable as you are. I know you might have a point, you might be right… but you won’t get them to do any better with a tongue lashing or cold shoulder treatment.
Either do the things needing doing yourself, or work with their strengths, use their best assets, and help them overcome the obstacles they feel they’re facing. Be an ally not an enemy, and not only will you get what you need, you’ll be thanked for it — which is nice!

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Tarot card for Sagittarius for Pisces season: Five of Cups
Meaning: This revolves around the emotion of grief. We never truly ‘get over’ loss, we just learn to live our lives alongside or around it. New life takes shape and forms around the hole where something, or someone, deeply loved once was. And this Pisces season brings your grief to the surface unexpectedly.
Don’t suppress it. Take steps to honour your lost ones. Get phots out, play music, lay them a seat at the table, carry a memento, talk to them, write them a letter and burn it outside to release it to the heavens. You can still communicate, through the veil, and still find comfort when you remember and embrace their loving warmth and presence.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
Tarot card for Capricorn for Pisces season: Queen of Wands
Meaning: This card has a ‘hurry up’ energy around it that rattles your steady paced mind. You don’t like being pressured to do something bigger or faster or better, you have very high standards already and are likely doing your absolute best.
Don’t let this pressure distract or unnerve you. Reflect it back at them, figure out what their vested interest is, and maybe how it can be deflected or served elsewhere. Get them out of your hair so you can get back to what you’re doing. Don’t bend to their demands. Side-step and carry on.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Tarot card for Aquarius for Pisces season: Strength
Meaning: A great life challenge has entered your realm and you’ve been wrestling with it, maybe for as long as from last summer. You feel now, though, that you’ve come through, overcome, proved yourself, and gotten to a good place with it all. And you have.
Let some steam off this Pisces season- unwind, relax, celebrate, go do something else fun. The challenge will wait for your return, but you come back to it knowing you’ve got this.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
Tarot card for Pisces for Pisces season: The Hanged Man
Meaning: This is your sign’s own card in the tarot deck as it associates with your planet Neptune, and of course it’s also your season. I think this is a time to let things be, surrender, stop forcing or pushing something (or someone) and relax into the reality you find yourself in.
Solutions, answers, and progress will emerge when you stop looking at the issue. Something unexpected is coming your way. You will feel better emotionally when you accept things as they are, and let the cosmos do its work to bring you new ideas!
