Trusting Alignment: Living by Fate, Not Sight
Having a Midheaven in Pisces is one of the hardest placements you can have. I say this because my Midheaven is in Pisces, and only now is everything truly clicking. What once felt confusing, delayed, or contradictory finally makes sense. The things I always knew—but resisted because the external world didn’t reflect them—are the very reasons my life unfolded the way it did.
People with a Pisces Midheaven were never meant to live externally.
We were meant to live spiritually. We were meant to live authentically. We were meant to move through life without allowing what happens outside of us to override what is happening within us. And that is exactly why this is the hardest placement to have. When I say hardest, I mean the hardest.
A Pisces Midheaven cannot survive manipulation, force, or control. Anything built on guilt, shame, or pressure will collapse. You cannot live by making others feel bad for their choices, and you cannot hold yourself responsible for paths that were never yours to carry. You are meant to surrender, not chase. Align, not force.
Harsh Truth
Looking back, I can now see that everything in my chart was designed to push me toward healing this placement. My North Node in Scorpio, my Mercury in Aquarius in the 9th house, my Gemini Rising—every challenge, every rebellion, every sense of being “too different” was part of the initiation. I wasn’t broken. I was being prepared.
I have always had a rebellious soul. A unique one. And for a long time, people labeled that as weird. Now I understand it differently. Being called different is confirmation that I have healed into my most authentic self. I no longer resist that. I embody it.
With a Pisces Midheaven, you cannot live by what you see.
You have to live by what you know. When your intuition speaks, when your dreams show you something, you are required to follow it—even if everyone else walks away. Even if you’re misunderstood. Even if the world around you is loud, chaotic, and demanding answers you don’t yet have.
I finally understand why transformation has followed me my entire life. When Scorpios enter my life, I have always known something was coming. A shift. A shedding. A death of something outdated. Sometimes it elevated me. Sometimes it brought a tower moment or a Judas moment. But it was never random. My North Node in Scorpio made transformation my path, not my punishment.
If a Scorpio enters my life and I feel irritation or emotional charge, I now recognize it immediately. There is something unhealed being reflected back to me. Often tied to the maternal line—because my mother is a Scorpio—and to the karmic family system I had to walk away from to survive. I was the black sheep. And that wasn’t a flaw; it was my assignment.
The universe is precise. If there is something I walked away from without healing, Scorpio energy returns. Not to trap me—but to test me. And every single time I heal what is being mirrored, the situation dissolves. The Scorpio exits. I’m removed cleanly. I see that pattern clearly now.
Pisces energy works differently. When Pisces placements come into my life, the lesson is always internal. Feel deeper. Trust more. Surrender fully. Even when Pisces shows up through chaos, confusion, or projection—especially projection—it forces me inward.
When someone projects onto me, I don’t ask why they’re doing it. I ask what I am still carrying that doesn’t belong to me. What belief needs to be released. What identity needs to be shed.
Here’s what I never understood until now: when someone with Pisces energy betrays me, I don’t crumble. I feel calm. Grounded. Almost untouched. That’s my Midheaven. External chaos cannot override internal truth once you are healed.
Then there’s my Gemini Rising. Duality has always surrounded me. Gemini energy has been in my life since birth—from my closest relationships to the people who hurt me the most, to professionals I trust. Gemini energy taught me discernment. It taught me how to listen beyond words and recognize truth beneath contradiction.
And then there’s Libra. The sign I struggled to understand the longest. Libra has carried a Judas frequency in my life. My Pluto is in Libra, and since around 2007—when I consciously began aligning—I noticed something undeniable: endings always come in October. Especially around October 10th.
Those endings never destroyed me. They elevated me. Each one stripped away something false and pushed me closer to my highest self. I don’t question it anymore. I honor it.
And now—this is the moment everything lands—I see why all of this had to happen. Every placement. Every lesson. Every ending. Every betrayal.
Everything in my chart was working to heal my Pisces Midheaven.
Because once that healing happened, something else could finally come alive.
My Aries Moon.
My Aries fire.
My Aries stellum
My 11th house purpose.
Holy shit.
That fire was never meant to burn through force. It was meant to ignite through alignment. Once my Pisces Midheaven healed, my Aries energy could finally express itself cleanly—without ego, without chaos, without resistance.
I don’t believe in luck. People with a Pisces Midheaven don’t. We believe in alignment. And once you reach it, life stops fighting you and starts flowing through you.
That’s the truth of this placement.
