Pisces
Pisces is a constellation of the zodiac. Its name is the Latin plural for fish, and its symbol is ♓ . It lies between Aquarius to the west and Aries to the east. The ecliptic and the celestial equator intersect within this constellation and in Virgo.The Vernal equinox is currently located in Pisces, due south of ω Psc, and, due to precession, slowly drifting below the western fish towards Aquarius.
Messier 74 is a loosely-wound (type Sc) spiral galaxy in Pisces, found at a distance of 30 million light years (redshift 0.0022). It has many clusters of young stars and the associated nebulae, showing extensive regions of star formation. It was discovered by Pierre Méchain, a French astronomer, in 1780. A type II-P supernova was discovered in the outer regions of M74 by Robert Evans in June 2003; the star that underwent the supernova was later identified as a red supergiant with a mass of 8 solar masses.[1]
History and Mythology
Pisces originates from some composition of the Babylonian constellations Šinunutu4 "the great swallow" in current western Pisces, and Anunitum the Lady of the Heaven, at the place of the northern fish. In the first Millennium BC texts known as the Astronomical Diaries, part of the constellation was also called DU.NU.NU (Rikis-nu.mi, "the fish cord or ribbon").
Pisces is associated with Aphrodite and Eros, who escaped from the monster Typhon by leaping into the sea and transforming themselves into fish. In order not to lose each other, they tied themselves together with rope. The Romans adopted the Greek legend, with Venus and Cupid acting as the counterparts for Aphrodite and Eros. The knot of the rope is marked by Alpha Piscium (α Psc), also called Al-Rischa ("the cord" in Arabic).[2]
The word Pisces comes from the Indo-European root *peisk- 'Fish'. Derivatives: fish (from Old English fisc, fish). Suffixed form *pisk-i; piscary, piscatorial, Pisces, pisci-, piscina. [Pokorny peisk- 796. Watkins]. Jesus Christ was represented in the Catacombs by two fishes. There is the famous acronym Ikhthus (= 'fish'),Iesous Khristos Theou Huios Soter: 'Jesus Christ (of) God (the) Son, Savior'. [3]

The process of perfection is only achieved through the inner marriage of the Mother and Father, and ultimately uniting them in a third state of stellar consciousness. The incorruptible wisdom is symbolized by the Christ Child that results from the marriage of the true Cosmic Father and Mother, and the Stars themselves. This is the attainment of the complete preservation of the body through the inner spirit, nourished in light rays and sound waves. One who has obtained the power of spiritualizing the body and knows how to transmute the corruptible physical into the incorruptible spirit. A Krystal being who attains an eternal spiritual body, and is able to break out of the karmic cycle to attain freedom from reincarnation in this space time. This is the ultimate process of planetary ascension, freedom from the prison planet and the fallen. This Great Work is the ultimate goal of spiritual ascension; the inner Christos-Sophia is initiated within to make perfect the complete divine human being.[4]
