Every year I do a little forecast based on the movies that I want to see.
For me it's been pretty accurate. I don't claim that this is for everyone, although, I've seen themes in the Collective play out. I recently listened to Acyuta-Bhava Dasa talk about the Jupiter Saturn conjunction that's just warming up. What is fascinating to me is the fact that he was talking about the movies that came out the last time there was a conjunction (2009) and it's fascinating because I met my husband. You can listen to that video here (https://youtu.be/Zas_MXV1_cg). In a way, you could say that those movies set the tone for that last Pluto/Jupiter cycle. Last year was the year of Big Endings and boy was it! This year there is one very obvious theme. That theme is that all the movies that I want to see involve elements about that past that were unknown. In a lot of ways it's all the little missing puzzle pieces that have been set up. I have to admit this is late and it starts with a movie that debuted in November. I didn't see Frozen II until this year and next weeks blog will be my review. You can now get that to view at home but I still consider it part of this year's movies because I didn't see it last year. I contemplated not posting this but this year has surprised me a lot already. Let's take a look shall we? The list is short this year...
I have seen this movie since I wrote this blog but I'm going to share what I wrote originally.
The trailer shows Elsa confronting a turbulent dark ocean. She uses her powers to try and conquer the ocean but ends up confronting a Kelpie. If you've followed my blog and what I've written about the Psychological Shadow- the Ocean is the archetype for the Subconscious where our Shadow resides. We tend to repress all of the parts of ourselves and knowledge of the fact that we live in a harsh temporary world. The beauty of this world, much like the turbulent ocean waves, is temporary. Many people try to drown out the truths that their subconscious holds- with material possessions, alcohol, drugs or even entertainment like movies. Sometimes, and I am guilty of this, people try to use their spirituality to combat the temporary nature of our mortal experience. Here, Elsa is confronting her deepest fears that threaten to overcome her.
There is still a lot of unknown's about this movie.
First, and foremost, no one is really sure when it is set. I am really excited to see a Black Widow movie coming out. I would like to think that they could have made this movie when Iron Man 2 came out but I don't think people were ready. A lot has changed in the last 10 years. The reference here of her returning to, "Where it all started," is intriguing. She's probably referring to the Red Room where she was trained as an assassin.
This is one of the first live action Disney movies that seems to be deviating significantly from the original animated movie. I'm very grateful for that as the live action remakes have left me very disappointed. I can't think of a single one that was equal to (let alone better) than the original. Instead, most of them have been watered down versions of the original material or in the case of Lion King horrendous.
I'm really excited about seeing this version of Mulan Mulan. Again, we have the Phoenix image in a Disney movie. Last year it was the huge Phoenix in Maleficent: Mistress of Evil (a movie I loved) and in this one the Phoenix is said to protect the Emperor. There's no Mushu in this movie which is good because I don't think that would translate. Also, there is a sister added to this movie and the grandmother seems to be removed. The villain has been changed from Khan to Rouran and instead of having a hunting falcon he fights a long a woman who can shape shift named Xian Lang. The choreography alone seems as though it will be worth going to see this movie but Mulan was one of my all time favorite animated Disney movie.
Yet again, the movie is set in the past.
This one is set in the '80's. The trailer starts off with, "My life, hasn't been what you probably think it has..." As this is set entirely in the past we can expect that it will reveal a story about Wonder Woman that we don't know. We only have this one trailer and it doesn't show too terribly much. Although, people have pointed out that the villain has a hair style similar to Trumps which I thought was funny. On an interesting note is that the book 1984 was written during a Saturn Pluto conjunction and we just had one this year in January.
There is next to no information on this movie. Since it doesn't come out until November the trailer hasn't been released. People believe that it will come out with Black Widow and probably play before that movie.
However, there are some things that we do know. The first is that Kevin Feige said that this movie spans several centuries and that pat of the plot is a love story. The Eternal's were created based on human DNA. The set pieces definitely showed ancient Egypt and Sumeria. There is a very Annunaki type vibe to this type of idea. I've always wanted to see this type of story and I even attempt to sit down and write one. I'm a romantic at heart so I'm excited to see what the trailer shows. There has never been a movie that's a love story over centuries so it will feel fresh and new. Again, though, it's clear that there is a part of history that most people don't know. Conclusion Sometimes for something to come to completion all of the details have to come out leading to a new perspective. That seems to be a big part of what's happening here. Details or a perspective of that past that we don't know will help illuminate current circumstances so that we can move onto something new. I really don't know what that might mean. Also, as I said, we have the addition of the Phoenix in Mulan. Clearly, before we can rise from the ashes...things have to break down and burn to ash. Total destruction has to take place before something truly new is born. That is simply how the archetype of the Phoneix (which really ties nicely to the archetype of Pluto actually) works. Honorable Mention If you knew me personally you would know I love the character Harlequin. So, Birds of Prey seemed interesting to me but there are a lot of reasons I didn't see it in theater and probably won't buy it. I hear it was a good movie but I probably won't see it. Further Thoughts Now that we are into the year and events have happened that I never really imagined (as I still reserve a bit of skepticism) I think that I can see a little about what was foreshadowed. Right now, like Elsa, people are facing a big huge fear...their fear of Death because of the Corona Virus. There is absolute panic over this that is disproportionate to the situation. Death, for me, has been a very close and personal factor for most of my life. Contemplating the purpose of death after having people and dogs close to me die helped keep me on the Path of the Seeker. Therefore, my relationship with the concept of death is not like other people. The main reason that I am not afraid of the Corona Virus is because I don't identify myself as my body. I am a eternal soul and nothing can harm that soul. The Corona Virus seems as though it's a very swift and somewhat painless way to die. I see it as more mercy than anything else. If it was a painful and slow death I would look at it as horrifying and so much worse...but this seems to be extremely swift. If we look it from a bigger perspective, the way history may in a few years, it may be that this virus is wiping out elderly people who are barely holding onto life swiftly. These are people who are having trouble transitioning when it may be that- to put it in the nicest way possible- God has a place for them elsewhere. No children have died and I would be horrified if they were but our various wars in the Middle East have killed a lot of children with little panic or outrage. Further, Biden is no competition for Trump. I don't see Biden as our president. I think for a lot of people that reality hit home at the same time that panic is peaking over the Corona Virus. I'm sure there are a lot of people who feel as though things are careening out of control. The idea that Trump might have four more years is surely freaking everyone out. On A Personal Note When Black Widow says in her teaser trailer, "I've lived many lives. I need to stop running," I had major goosebumps because I just had a dream where I was told I needed to stop running. (In that dream I had to fall in order to save my sister who had fallen off a platform as we were trying to save people and things in midst a war. In a recent dream- March 2020- I had an even deeper dream where my sister, who thought she was irredeemable, realized I was here to save her and she gave me a big hug because I was the only one she'd accept help from). I could go into details about how these are aspects of myself- the rebel part (my sister) that's protecting the more vulnerable part of myself (which is how I see myself) but I think that can get boring. Maybe in another post. This year is very much one where I will be confronting the remaining fears that I have. There are not many and they are very minor in the scheme of things. Yet, I'm very much standing up for myself. Recently, as of editing this in March (the original was written in December 2019) I had a dream that was part of an entire string of dreams that I've had since 2015. I had one last year, as well, and I shared that I was in a store and I had a choice. I could buy the Healers Stone but I chose to revisit the past. I knew I made a mistake but I think I misunderstood the meaning (boy did I revisit the past on a psychological level because there is a lot to be healed in my relationship with my husband but my perception of him has changed radically). Well, this time, I was in the store and decided to leave without buying anything. Everyone was very upset that I was leaving without anything but I realized there was nothing there for me. I then ended up with a group of Angels that told me that God was pleased with me. That's very new and I definitely prefer that ending! I do feel as long as though I am no longer grasping (that's a Buddhist word for desire and is the root of all suffering). This year seems as though it will be very different. I only see good things for me this year. Yes, it will be difficult but I've overcome so many thing it's very minor.
