Zodiac Icons Blanket: Pisces
I like to think of Pisces season as a time to regroup, envision what I want next, and make a plan to get there. It’s the “law of attraction” part of zodiac for me, so I’m hoping to use this month ahead to really focus and dream about what I want the rest of the year to look like. Pisces is poetic and sensitive, so it’s also a time to remain calm and enjoy the vision rather than trying to immediately leap into action. Having this solid picture to refer back to will help guide us through the rest of the year! It’s easy to see the beauty in this month’s square, and it happens to be one of my favorites!

Pisces represents confinement, so if the pattern has put you in prison don’t worry! You have the keys to open the door. Just imagine your way out of it.
