[QUOTE="sworm09, post: 1010275, member: 27234"] Jupiter's rulership over Pisces wasn't necessarily tied to affinity. Ptolemy gives a seasonal analogy that says that Jupiter rules Pisces because Pisces is in a whole sign trine to Cancer, the home of the Moon. Since Jupiter is a fertile planet, it would make sense that a sign that makes a friendly aspect to the home of a luminary would be the home of Jupiter. Neptune was given to Pisces because Neptune is seen by some as similar in nature to Pisces.....even though there's a lot that goes into what makes Pisces the sign that it is. There are constellations and fixed Stars in Pisces that heavily inform how it acts, and planets in different points in Pisces are going to act in different ways. So saying Neptune is like Pisces may be a little too reductionist, in my opinion. Neptune may be like parts of Pisces, sure, but to say that it defines Pisces may be a little much. I agree with greybeard. If you can find decent justification for it and you can use it to produce coherent, consistent, and insightful interpretations, then go ahead and use Neptune as ruler of Pisces. Just have a reason to do what you're doing and be well informed as to what your decision means. [/QUOTE]
