General presentation
The constellation of Pisces is a zodiac constellation visible mainly in autumn in the northern hemisphere. Located between the Aquarius and the Aries, it is composed of relatively weak stars, which makes it discreet in the night sky. Crossed every year by the Sun, the Moon and the planets, it is one of the oldest constellations listed by ancient astronomers.
Shape of the Pisces constellation
The constellation of Pisces takes the form of two fishes connected by a long ribbon. Its stars draw two distinct groups, each forming one of the fish. This form is quite extensive in the sky and requires a bit of imagination, but once the two groups of stars are identified, the silhouette of the two fish becomes easier to recognize.
