Why do two fish represent the Pisces sign?
Like all other signs, Pisces is tied to a constellation identified way back in ancient Greece. However, there are many popular versions of the tale of the two fish, making it difficult to know for certain which is the origin story. Much like Capricorn, one of the tales details a great escape from the monstrous Typhon; Aphrodite and Eros were desperate to escape him and jumped into the river. It is unknown whether they became fish themselves or the two fish safely escorted them away. But there are still more tales! It’s possible that the famed two fish mightn’t be fish at all. In ancient Babylon, it may have been believed that the two curved lines represented the Tigris and Euphrates rivers of Mesopotamia.
