Pisces: Playlist Prescription
© 2023 by Adam Rankin
Rx #12 Pisces Energy
Pisces is the dreamer & psychic of the zodiac, preferring the dreamscape of fantasy to the harsh realities of human life. As the 12th and final sign of the zodiac, Pisces represents the culmination of life, encapsulating the wisdoms of all the signs that come before it. This energy is highly sensitive & chameleon-like, absorbing its environment like a sponge and effortlessly adapting its persona as each situation calls. Romantic Pisces understands life through the heart, regularly riding oceanic waves of emotion. This otherworldly sign is imaginative & creative, using its innate intuition & spiritual connection to channel beauty & magic into the world.
To embody Pisces at its best is to see the soul in everyone & the beauty in everything. It’s knowing that your imagination & creativity are superpowers. It’s accepting the depths of the human experience and not being afraid of feeling it ALL. It’s dreaming while you’re awake and being awake while dreaming. It’s flowing with the tides and not allowing society to define you as any one thing because you know you can completely transform yourself in any given moment.
Playlist Prescription (Rx)
Below is a playlist to accompany you in tapping into Pisces vibes during this season-or whenever you need some of this potent energy in your life. Obviously I can’t condense the entirety of a complex zodiac sign into 12 songs, so think of this as a small capsule of energy to try on for an hour and see if it can move you into embodying the archetype of Pisces.
NOTE: These aren’t songs I think people with signs in Pisces will necessarily like or identify with, nor do I think it sums them up in any way-our musical tastes & personalities are much too unique and complex for that! This is about music I feel evokes the essence of this sign and I hope it helps you then experience it within yourself.

About Playlist Rx
Playlist Prescription (Rx) is a project about embodying archetypal energy. I’m fascinated by the patterns & crossover of symbols within systems of universal understanding, like tarot, astrology, and the cycles of nature, and how these archetypes have been used throughout history to understand ourselves and weave the important stories of our world across culture, religion and time.
I’ve created playlists ever since I can remember to move me through an experience, to shift my emotional state, or to embody a certain energy. Delivering these archetypes through music feels like the perfect to way to offer a personalized journey for you to try on the energy for yourself and see what it feels like for you.
I’m excited to team up with my brother, artist & photographer, Adam Rankin, to create the imagery for each sign.
The Zodiac Edition
In this edition, I’m focusing on astrology and the 12 signs of the zodiac. We all contain the energy of each of the 12 zodiac signs within us. Depending on our astrological makeup, some signs will be more expressed, comfortable or obvious and others will feel foreign to us or remain more hidden. Power comes in exploring and activating each of these energies within our selves and tapping into them as needed throughout the different seasons, not only of the year, but of our lives.
This series will follow the astrological calendar in real time with a monthly post and playlist intended to inform and evoke the essence of the featured zodiac sign within that season and within yourself.
