~ A Myth of Escape ~
In Greek myth, Pisces is linked to the story of Aphrodite and Eros. To escape the monster Typhon, they transformed into two fish and tied their tails together with a cord to not be separated in the chaotic waters. This reflects Pisces' themes of salvation, connection, and retreat into a hidden realm.
