Pisces Positive Traits
Adaptable
A Pisces can quickly change themselves to fit a situation. During the day, they don’t let minor setbacks or inconveniences ruin their schedule.
A Pisces can improve whatever plan they need to get through a situation. When it comes to their job, they accommodate the strengths of their colleagues, filling in any role needed.
Unique
Pisces hate conforming to a crowd. A Pisces enjoys their individuality and self-expression. They often do “weird” things that interest them, even if other people may look down on them. A Pisces has niche hobbies and quirks that draws people in.
It takes confidence to be yourself, something a Pisces has mastered.
Intuitive
A Pisces doesn’t need to draw up a pros and cons list to make a decision. They’ll give themselves some time and feel out the best decision for themselves. They go with their gut when it comes to relationships and important life decisions.
They trust their intuition when they’ve found thinking through their choices often leads to a worse one.
Sensitive
Much like the other Water signs, a Pisces is a sensitive person. They find beauty in the small things in life and feel emotions deeper than non-Water signs.
A Pisces loves literature and film because they can put themselves in a character’s shoes. Even with real people, they extend the empathy and care the person deserves.
Imaginative
A Pisces has a wild imagination. Their Mutable quality means they can adapt their thinking to new mental territories, often coming up with totally original ideas. Pisces love outlets in which they can let their imagination run wild, such as through writing or drawing.
A Pisces’ brain feels clogged if they can’t express themselves, so they need a creative release.
Artistic
Their grand imagination makes the Pisces gravitate towards the arts. They’ll love taking part in all forms, whether it’s acting or directing, writing or painting, or any other creative endeavor. The
Pisces understands a work of art deeply and thoroughly, coming up with deep readings of a piece of literature or a painting.
Sacrificing
This borders on a negative trait, but Pisces are a notoriously sacrificing sign. They’ll give up their time, resources, or even money to help someone in need. While this generosity can be seen as virtuous, it can get extremely impoverishing for a passive Pisces.
Nefarious people can take advantage of this sacrificial nature, which brings us to the negative traits.
Pisces Negative Traits
Naive
A Pisces is too trusting for their own good. They expect the best in people, but people don’t always have the best intentions.
A Pisces will eventually learn from their bad experiences and adjust their future behavior, but the learning process can have dire consequences for the unassuming Pisces.
Passive
They’ll be so accommodating for other people that they’ll do whatever another person wants them to do. A Pisces is prone to becoming a “Yes Man” or a “people pleaser” because they can’t say no to someone, often forgoing their own mental or physical health in the process. And again, this leads the Pisces vulnerable to predatory people.
Scatterbrained
While caring and compassionate people, Pisces are forgetful and unorganized. They’ll often forget to go to meetings, show up late, or turn in assignments past the deadline.
A Pisces may be scatterbrained because they took on too many tasks at once and spread their time too thin, but it mostly comes down to time management skills that can be improved.
Idealistic
A Pisces superimposes their image of the world onto the world’s reality, meaning they have unrealistic hopes or expectations that often aren’t met. This idealism becomes especially true in the dating scene, where a Pisces will drop a partner when the Pisces doesn’t think they live up to their standards.
Other times, the Pisces has extreme optimism that often doesn’t pan out.
Impractical
A Pisces idealism and unorganized nature can cause them to adopt an impractical plan of action. They may come up with an idea that sounds good at first but falls apart when it’s fully developed.
A Pisces also knows how to solve the first few steps of a problem but rarely thinks through a plan. A Pisces sets out to do a lot but usually fails to get everything done efficiently.
March 13 Zodiac Romantic Compatibility
Dating goes either well or poorly for a Pisces. Their mutable nature means they can adjust to their partner’s personality traits pretty easily. Their sensitivity means they fall in love with people easily, so a Pisces may be the hopeless romantic who constantly gets their heart broken in the dating game.
On the other hand, a Pisces may become too blinded by their idealism to stick to a partner. A Pisces has an idea for the perfect partner – maybe not the whole person, but certainly the traits the Pisces wants.
In the early stages of dating, if the Pisces’ date doesn’t match these idealized traits, the Pisces can drop the person to find someone new.
Still, a Pisces is a loving person who craves companionship. A Pisces will eventually realize the errors of their ways and figure out how to settle with someone. When they do, they will probably go for one of the following signs.
Which Signs Match Best with this Pisces?
Taurus
A Taurus is a Fixed sign known for its big heart and generosity but also their stubbornness. A Taurus is traditional in how they think and feel, and often don’t like taking risks. A Taurus makes sure to think through a decision before committing to it. They’re loyal and honest and try to be the best versions of themselves.
A Pisces pairs well with a Taurus because the Taurus provides a good structure for the Pisces to adapt to. A Taurus is stubborn and resolute, something the weak-willed Pisces will greatly admire. Because the Taurus is a Fixed sign while the Pisces is Mutable, the Pisces is more likely to accommodate the Taurus’ needs.
While the Pisces will usually be fine with that, they’ll know that of all the people to attach themselves to, a Taurus, with their generous heart, will be a great match for them.
Scorpio
A Scorpio is a Water sign like the Pisces, but the Scorpio is Fixed like the Taurus. Scorpios are incredibly sweet and caring people, but the Scorpio is assertive and knows how to get what they want. The Scorpio doesn’t take no for an answer and perseveres in the face of rejection.
They’re brave and ambitious people when it comes to their job and loyal when it comes to loved ones.
The Scorpios soft yet grounded nature will appeal to the Pisces. The Pisces will seek to accommodate the Scorpio’s needs, but the Scorpio will always make sure the Pisces feels comfortable and like they’re taken care of too.
The Scorpio is gentle enough to handle the sensitive Pisces but firm enough to protect the Pisces from the ills of life.
A Pisces will appreciate the Scorpio’s headstrong yet caring nature, perfect for the adaptable and sacrificing Pisces.
Cancer
Cancers are Water Cardinal signs. They’re soft and sensitive like the Pisces, but the Cancer takes the initiative and control over a situation. Cancers are natural born leaders, but the Cancer always considers the needs of the people around them.
Naturally romantic and affectionate, a Cancer loves to take care of a partner.
The Pisces will love how caring a Cancer is. While other signs care for their romantic partner, a Cancer takes it to the next level. Cancers intuit how to make a partner feel loved and listened to, something the obsequious Pisces will appreciate.
The Pisces constantly makes time for other people, so the Pisces will love the Cancer making time for them.
Of all the signs, the Pisces and Cancer will probably understand each other the best. Both are sensitive and never want to hurt another person without reason, so they’ll intuit how to maneuver each other in a relationship.
Best Jobs for the March 13 Zodiac
A Pisces finds it hard to fake their emotions. They don’t want a job in which they can’t express themselves genuinely in either physical presentation or behavior towards other people. The sensitive Pisces needs to feel engaged with their work at all times or else they’ll want to rip their hair out.
A Pisces will do well in creative fields, such as writing, painting, or textile creation. They’ll also enjoy a job where they don’t have to lead other people. A Pisces can step up if put to the task, but they’d rather give the leadership headache to another person.
While Pisces is adaptable and unique individuals, they require a job that allows them to be disorganized. If the job mandates impeccable time management skills or making sure every aspect of the creation process is perfect, the Pisces will feel too much pressure to change themselves to feel comfortable in their job.
A Pisces is naturally conversant and friendly, so any job that requires talking to people will suit the Pisces well. A Pisces excels at interpersonal skills.

March 13 Zodiac Weaknesses
The biggest goal of the March 13 Pisces is to prevent themselves from getting walked on. Their trusting nature can cause them financial, social, or even physical harm if left unchecked. A Pisces would rather overexert themselves and ruin their own schedules rather than feel like they’re letting someone down.
In relationships, a Pisces can lose their identity in their partner’s identity. Such a loss in identity is rare and typically happens with unevolved Pisces, but the threat is still there. Combining their adaptable yet passive nature means they’ll start adopting their partner’s habits until the Pisces forgets what’s authentic and what’s someone else.
A Pisces idealism can make them prone to depression, pessimism, or general melancholy. A Pisces sets high expectations that are rarely met, leading to feelings of sadness and disappointment when the Pisces is let down. Such sadness builds upon itself until the Pisces becomes bitter or put in an unhealthy mental state.
Their idealism can make them perfectionists but can be damaging too. The Pisces needs to be aware of their negative traits to live a positive life. But what advice should they heed?
Tips for Improvement
Listen to your gut, but also give yourself time to think rationally before a major decision. While you can trust your gut, the brain takes in information that can lead to the best choice for certain situations.
Learn to distance yourself from other people. You don’t have to isolate yourself, but you need to be in touch with your inner esteem and confidence before you start building your confidence because of other people.
The March 13 Pisces has its pros and cons, but they can improve to be an amazing sign on the Zodiac.
