Pisces, Venus, and Who You Date

Pisces is Jupiter's sign, and it is the exaltation of Venus. A Venus in Pisces is the marriage karaka at its strongest dignity. A Pisces lagna has Jupiter as the lagna lord, ruling the 1st and the 10th, so the person and the career share Jupiter. A Pisces Moon is a mind in Jupiter's sign, and the nakshatra inside it, Purva Bhadrapada, Uttara Bhadrapada, or Revati, chooses the opening dasha: Jupiter, Saturn, or Mercury. Three different clocks wear the same rashi.

A rule that says other signs should avoid dating Pisces cannot see which of those three is in front of you, and it cannot see their 7th house.

You date a 7th house, a Venus, and a Moon nakshatra. Ashtakoot scores the two Moons out of 36. A Pisces Moon with your Moon may lose Bhakoot if the signs are 6/8, 5/9, or 2/12, and may score well if they are not. That is a calculation, not a ban. Their 7th lord may be Venus, Mars, or Saturn depending on the lagna, and your 7th lord is equally specific. Two Pisces Moons can have opposite rising signs and opposite marriages.

Jupiter in their 7th describes one kind of partner. Jupiter debilitated in Capricorn in the 7th, which would make their lagna Cancer, is the strained version. The rashi Pisces is not that chart.

People are told to avoid Pisces because the sign is diffuse, kind, or hard to pin. Those are mood words. The exaltation of Venus in Pisces is a dignity, a reason the karaka functions, not a reason to refuse a person who has the Sun, Moon, or lagna there. If Venus is in Pisces in your chart, you carry the exaltation yourself. Avoiding partners who share a theme with your own karaka is not a rule of the 7th.

Read both lagnas and both Moons. Date, or do not, from the 7th lords. The ban list has no house number.
