Ok, a good friend of mine (known him years and years) is a Pisces....he's pretty much a textbook Pisces if you know what i mean...ever since i have known him, he would get these spells where he would say things like "i feel like i'm not really here right now" and "this feels like a different reality, like its not all really happening" at first i would just not really pay attention (Gems overlook shit that doesn't make sense to us...write it off as CRAZY)

Anyway, he still does this on occasion...i never questioned it....before because i overlooked it, and now because i'm just used to it... does this "feeling" ever happen to any of you? If so, what's it like? Or is my friend just a nutcase?

GEM, Pisces are true empaths. Some may not have realized it yet. They may just still be thinking that they are just very intuitive, but, with age, they begin to comprehend.

When he says stuff like, "i feel like i'm not really here right now" and "this feels like a different reality, like its not all really happening" - it's not happening to HIM, yet he feels it. Pisces feel other people, thier pain, sorrow, happiness, everything. That's why he will say it feels likes it not really happening because it isn't, but, because he can feel the other person inside them to intensly, he would say, it feels like another reality. Fortunately for other people it works in bed too, which you've stated that you know all about that too. The fish can feel what you feel, as well as themself. Double "O", rock on.

Ever notice when you're with a Pisces friend, they sometimes seem crazy because they will just start laughing out of nowhere, or crying for no apparant reason, or angry and nobody even said anything to piss them off? It's not their feelings, their reality - they felt those emotions emitting from another person and responded to them.

Anyway, that is why your friend says those things. Hope it made it a little more clearer to you.

P-Angel,
i understand what you are saying, my friend would say these things while it was just me, his Libra sister and him.....me and the sis were fine, no emotions really, just that airy relaxness when nothing is happening.....maybe he was just experiencing things from a more detached perspective.......he was absorbing our detachment, and it was strange for him, since he usually feels everything...ahhh ok.....maybe that could be it and why he does that alot around me.....my detachment is strange for a water sign?....I think Pisces described the experience well also.....

It's one of those things, you have to experience to know fully. But, he's not crazy, mate, really. We all have to deal with that. I wonder, I'll have to do some research, but, I wonder if the majority of people who actually do go insane are Pisceans?

Because, sometimes, it becomes so unbearable - the older you can, the more intune you become and it gets very overwhelming. Pisceans are prone to suicide and this is why. The bombardment gets more and more intense as each year passes.

A lot of Pisceans can't relate to others - a curse that's hard to deal with. I've found that most, probably nearly all, Pisceans THINK they can relate from their perspective, but, in reality, people on the outside looking in, pretty much don't know where they're coming from most of the time.

I do know, however, that Gemini's are one of the rare people who actually can relate to Pisces. Maybe that's why you have so many fish friends. His guy really needs you GEM, because it's likely that very few people in his life really get him.

that's what i was saying earlier....because although different in big ways, there are common traits such as the changeability, imagination and intelligence they share.

-Both are mutable, changeable, Gem mentally, Pisces also, but Pisces has alot more emotional connections with their thoughts where Gemini can imagine/think about things in a more detached way...they both don't really impose themselves on eachother which is cool, but sometimes it can lack direction...they also communicate quite well because they both tend to be open to new ideas.

If you embrace the ability to see AND feel what really goes on in others and in life, this "battle" isnt so hard. I'll admit I'm locked inside my head 99% of the time, but you have to work this special gift that we have. I'm an office manager, super single mom, Oprah to my co-workers, the strongest link in my family, and I deal just fine. And when its all said and done I still find the time to escape and ponder, but more importantly I'm always tuned in. It takes time and growth to evolve. Maybe it will happen to you, maybe it wont. Just be the best you.

pushit - Strange to think so many people experience the same thing & there isn't any sientific evidence to back it up.

I am constantly having to check whether what I am feeling is my emotion or someone elses - When it feels like I am watching my self have emotions I can't explain it either - detachment but involvement at the same time.

Here is a funny one for you & this is very typical of daily experience.

I was at the bf's house when I got up to go to work (He had already gone to work) I went to have a shower & as I switched the water on a thought flashed in my head as well as a picture & feeling (sometimes its just the feeling & that really pisses me off cause I don't know where its coming from & other times I get the works - Usually the closer the vicinity or how well I know the person helps) - it was of his flatmate getting into his shower (he has the ensuite) at the same time. Now I think most people know this one - When you both have the water going at the same time whoever switches theres on last gets the hot water & whoever was in the shower before's water goes cold (Ha!) So the trick is to switch the water off & then on again & yours goes hot & the other persons goes cold - so I did that but all I was feeling was irritated & I was thinking he's going to do the same thing & a ramble of thoughts going thru my head - I knew this was not my emotion & I knew I could stop him being annoyed simply by getting out of the shower but because he was fucking with my emotions by sending me irate energy I kept switching the water on & off just to get up him 🙂 nasty really

Now, the thing is, I have never had that happen in the house before & I didn't know if my bf's flatmate was home or not even cause he normally leaves earlier & the water thing could have been any number of reasons but I knew in my mind thats what it was - Wild guess? Maybe - but I have proven to myself time & again that when I get that detached emotion its not mine - there is a difference & sometimes the line between your feeling & what someone else is feeling becomes very thin & its hard to differentiate between the two which just leaves you all fucked up - its hard to get the hang of.

Ha! The funny thing that proved it was he came stopping down stairs & said what the F#@% was wrong with the water this morning, I just wanted to have a hot shower & its freezing & rarararar & I could tell he knew that I knew that I was in the shower fucking with the water so I Laughed my gutts

Shiit! I was typing that so quickly - there is probably 1 hundred typo's in there - I hate my spelling errors 😢

Yeah anyways, I told him it was MOI!! Heh heh & being the sag that he is appreciated the honesty & had a laugh.

The point to that silly little story was that you really have to think before you act on your emotions - Is this really mine? If you are getting to bombarded then get your time away & learn how to shut off.

This is very real for me & I am sure allot of others too.

"...Pisces are true empaths. Some may not have realized it yet. They may just still be thinking that they are just very intuitive, but, with age, they begin to comprehend."

P-Angel

"I wouldn't talk so easy about Pisces who funcion just fine in real world. They wage the hardest battle of the whole zodiac with much less gain that you can imagine. For Pisces it is like changing whole perception system."

Haffo

Pisces possess more resiliency than given credit for. We don't need to change nor, as we mature, feel the need to dance to another's tune. The hardest quest for most fish is to "Thy Own Self be True". When we learn to find peace with ourselves, we thrive, but, it ain't easy with all these messages feelings coming through. Yes, we could probably get farther ahead in the world if we sublimated our fine tuning, but in the end, so many people who have sacrificed their true desires to answer another's calling almost always confess "I wish I followed my dreams".

Life experience is our best defense. We faulter, fumble and stumble our way through things, but, are greatest gift is the ability to connect and evolve. We can gather information faster than most people. We see, without seeing, we sense without the need to say, we understand without the need to explain. Essentially, we exist in between worlds - half in/half out. Most people cannot appreciate or understand what it's all about. We fish are humans who wish to live a god-like existance, not out of arrogance, but out of our belief in knowing we can achieve our true potentional. As Emerson wrote, "one that in new in nature" not an instant reply of what has come before.
