I'm My Own Pisces

My personal thoughts have always been that astrological signs only exist for psychological reasons. Being born in a certain month isn't going to determine everything about the rest of your life. They're just another stereotype that society wants to define us by so that no one can develop an individual personality.
I myself am suppose to fit under the stereotype of Pisces. Supposedly we're all supposed to be extremely emotional and generous. The first link to shown up in Google tells me that since I was born on February 20th that I should be kind, compassionate, intuitive, sensitive, selfless, idealistic, pessimistic, and lazy. I do fit in some of these descriptions, some I do not. For anyone that doesn't know me, I fit the idealistic and lazy description perfectly on most days. Some days I fit the compassionate and selfless description. The day I was born has nothing to do with any of that though. The way I act in my day to day life is just that, reactions to the day to day not a reaction to February 20th, 1996. I know people that aren't in the Pisces stereotype that fit the description better than I do, but society tells me this is how I should act because that was when I was born. We're so eager to stuff people into these stereotypes so that they can't develop as individuals. There's no way we can group thousands upon thousands of people into one stereotype just because of the day they were born. We can't tell them that this is how they should act because they were born on a specific date.
