Pisces Horoscope Dates: February 19 – March 20
The Pisces horoscope dates run from February 19 to March 20. If your birthday falls anywhere in that window, your Sun sign is Pisces — compassionate, intuitive, and dreamy — the zodiac’s empath and old soul. Below you’ll find the exact Pisces dates, what happens if you were born on the cusp, the three decans of Pisces and how they shade your personality, plus a quick snapshot of the sign. For the full personality profile, love matches, and more, see the complete Pisces zodiac sign guide.

When does Pisces start and end?
Pisces season begins on February 19 and ends on March 20. You may see the dates listed a day earlier or later on other sites, and that’s not an error — the Sun doesn’t change signs at the same clock time every year, so the exact start and end can shift by about a day depending on the year and your time zone. For almost everyone, the February 19 to March 20 range is exactly right. If your birthday lands on the very first or very last day, read the cusp section below.
Were you born on the Pisces cusp?
Born right at the edge of Pisces? Then you were born on a cusp — the changeover point between two signs. The first day of Pisces (February 19) sits on the Aquarius–Pisces cusp, and the last day (March 20) sits on the Pisces–Aries cusp. Astrologically there’s no such thing as being “half and half,” though — you are still fully one sign or the other. The only way to know for certain is to check the exact moment the Sun changed signs in your birth year, because a birthday on the boundary can fall under either sign depending on the year and the hour you were born. If you were born on February 19 or March 20, a quick birth-chart lookup will settle it for good.
The three decans of Pisces
Every sign is divided into three decans of roughly ten days, each with a sub-ruler that adds its own flavour to the core Pisces personality. Here’s where you fall:
- First decan (February 19–29): the purest expression of Pisces, doubly ruled by Neptune and Jupiter — the most classic Pisces traits.
- Second decan (March 1–10): shaded by Cancer (sub-ruled by the Moon), adding a Cancer twist to your Pisces core.
- Third decan (March 11–20): shaded by Scorpio (sub-ruled by Pluto and Mars), adding a Scorpio twist to your Pisces core.
Pisces personality in brief
As a water mutable sign ruled by Neptune (and Jupiter), Pisces is compassionate, intuitive, and dreamy — the zodiac’s empath and old soul. That’s the short version — for the full breakdown of Pisces traits, strengths and weaknesses, love and compatibility, the Pisces man and woman, career, and mythology, read the complete Pisces zodiac sign guide.
