Being a mutable water sign, Pisces have a tendancy to change according to "outside conditions", though they seem to be living in a world of imagination and dreams. Which means that they can either "move beyond the self" and into transcendance or into a world of escapism; they will either swim with or against the current.
Pisces are highly intuitive and are generally considered the most sensitive sign of the Zodiac. They don't always know which feelings are theirs and which belong to others. They instantly "know" how others are feeling. Unconsciously they may take on these feelings, good or bad, and wonder how they went from feeling so good to being so depressed.
The twelfth sign is very artistic and a highly spiritual sign—not "religious" spirituality, but the need to have a connection with some higher power. If this need is not found they may turn to the negative side of their energy—escapism—and become to addicted to drugs, alcohol, etc.
Sensitive and perceptive Pisces can seemingly look into others' souls and are always seeking their soulmate. As a result, they may be sorely disappointed when real people don't live up to their lofty expectations. Once they find love, however, they seem to create a space apart from the rest of the world where only they and their loved one exist. You'll know when you're the object of a Pisces' affections.
This sign tends to do well with other Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) but Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) are hit-and-miss types; the relationship will either be successful or will leave behind a shattered Pisces. Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) are also compatible and will keep Pisces rooted just enough to keep their flights of fancy to a minimum.
Pisces need to be careful not to be taken in by those who would take advantage of them—the Fish sign is easy to trust and easy to hurt.
Pisces belongs to the twelfth house (a cadent house), which rules your subconscious and the unknown. Going by element, the twelfth sign is in Water, the house of endings, and rules the results of the life we choose.

From Astrology.com...
When Sagittarius and Pisces join together in a love match, a relationship of realized dreams is formed. Sagittarius is more of a thinker and philosophizer, easily drifting around from one pursuit to the next. Pisces is more inward, involved in the shifting of their own mindscape. They are opposites in some respects, and to outsiders may seem an unlikely pair. But as their love for one another grows, they are more likely to be able to satisfy the philosophical cravings of the other and maintain a healthy relationship.
Sagittarius is outgoing and versatile, and in a relationship with Pisces often comes to the defense of their gentler partner. Pisces, in turn, gives Sagittarius subtle understanding and a place to escape from their tireless endeavors. Pisces is a Sign that, like Water, adapts easily to its surroundings; Pisces tends to focus much energy on understanding and sympathizing with their partner.
They are often more patient with Sagittarius's aloofness than other Signs. Sagittarius's active pursuit of knowledge combines with Pisces's gentle compassion towards others to give both partners a self-awareness that doesn't pass into egocentricity and isn't overly accommodating, such as Pisces alone may be.
Sagittarius and Pisces are both ruled by the Planet Jupiter. Pisces is also ruled by Neptune. Jupiter brings exploration and outreach to both Signs.
Pisces is concerned with this aspect in an abstract sense; they often find themselves trying to save the world (perhaps in the form of recycling or environmentalism). Sagittarius, on the other hand, prefers to broaden their horizons through academics. Neptune is about big pictures, ideas and illusions; but it's also involved with disillusion and fantasy. Sagittarius can help Pisces plant its feet on the ground. Jupiter works through Pisces to put a gentler touch on Sagittarius's occasional hotheaded outbursts.
Sagittarius is a Fire Sign and Pisces is a Water Sign. These two elements can form a great couple if they give in a little, using innate understanding of situations and people to get matters resolved. Pisces can offer Sagittarius direction and help them learn to be gentler, while Sagittarius teaches Pisces to go out and explore the world. This couple will enjoy traveling together.
Pisces can be emotionally draining for the Archer at times, too much Water dampening Sagittarius's fiery spirit. Conversely, too much Fire can boil the Water and leave Pisces steaming. Sagittarius and Pisces must use their perceptive skills to enhance the relationship, always focusing on what the other needs.
Sagittarius and Pisces are both Mutable Signs. Neither partner feels a need to dominate the relationship. They enjoy equality and like to see their ideas come to fruition. Pisces gets great happiness from helping Sagittarius. Sagittarius and Pisces enjoy dreaming up ideas and putting them into action. No one is preoccupied with end results; for this couple, the fun is in the journey! A lack of conflict over roles helps Sagittarius and Pisces work toward the same goals with great success.
What's the best aspect of the Sagittarius-Pisces relationship? It's that they can benefit from one another's wisdom and at the same time get along so well together. Pisces shows Sagittarius how to empathize and care; Sagittarius teaches Pisces how to turn fantasy into reality! The ability of each to provide what the other lacks makes theirs a truly reciprocal relationship.
