An older, independent picture-set for the degrees exists too: John Thomas, the Welsh astrologer who wrote as Charubel, published his own image for every degree in 1898, decades before the Balboa Park session. For this degree his catalogue describes a field of ripe corn ready for the sickle. A cloudless sky and brilliant sunshine.
Counting from Pisces's start, this is the fourteenth degree, placing it in the sign's second decan. Its decan is ruled by Jupiter, Pisces's own planet, reinforcing rather than complicating the sign's usual character. The term ruler here is also Jupiter, so the finer division agrees with the decan rather than adding a separate voice. Every degree in this set, including this one, comes from a single 1925 sitting: Marc Edmund Jones and the clairvoyant Elsie Wheeler, in Balboa Park, San Diego, drawing 360 blank cards in random order.
Jones's book appeared in 1953, but it is Dane Rudhyar's 1973 reinterpretation, An Astrological Mandala, that is generally quoted today, and its copyrighted wording is withheld from this page. Pisces closes the zodiac as mutable water, willing to dissolve a boundary that Scorpio would have defended. What a degree reading offers here is orientation rather than forecast, a way of naming exactly where in Pisces's cycle a person or moment sits.
