Observation 1 - When a fish turns into a shark...


I watched wrestling as a younger boy, staying up late to watch Monday Night RAW. Tip toeing out of the bedroom I was so excited to hear each wrestler's theme song with fireworks, lights, explosions and fire. My favorite wrestlers were the ones who wore face paint or a mask, hiding their identity like superheroes. I recently found out that one of those particular wrestlers... is a Pisces! Wrestler "Sting" born March 20th. Who would have thought a fish would be out there handing out jabs and clotheslines?

I was browsing through youtube when nostalgia hit me right in the childhood. Now, this isn't a ploy to make you a wrestling fan. In fact, there is not much "wrestling" in the clip I watched. (linked below)

What was so interesting is how Sting reacts in a situation where he is being verbally attacked





Talk about swimming in two directions.... and at the same time, a Pisces who knows exactly what he wants to do with his emotions. It was a paradox to hear him say:
" What hurts most... are my, feelings."
He might have been saying the truth, and he is definitely going to do something about it.
I felt as though this is how timid Pisces want to react externally when someone has angered them. Am I saying that every timid Pisces should go out there and execute a submission move on every person that pushes their buttons?
Not this time.

I think the lesson that lies here, is that, sometimes emotions are talked about as forces outside our control. The exchange above is an extreme case, but you have a man that knows exactly what he is feeling and how he wants to react. Sting has conviction. He accepts his emotions as a state, not a condition.  He does not view himself as a victim of various forces.
