Saturn - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, it's also a short story by Scott Fitzgerald Pluto and Scorpionic themes are usually overused in movies/series, and Neptune in Hollywood films (the mandatory happy ending). Eastern European films have a Saturn feel. Edit: my Pisces Mercury jumped to movies, sorry for that IP: Logged |

This featured astrology and reincarnation as a major theme:Bless the Child Note, it is NOTHING like the movie. In fact, had the movie not used the same title with same character names I doubt I'd have even guessed that this book inspired it! IP: Logged |

The curious case of Benjamin button is my FAVORITE movie!😍 I wouldn't have thought of saturn. I probably would have thought of Jupiter and maybe Pluto. Why do you say saturn? I'm following, I've wondered this too! I wonder if you can successfully incorporate astrology into fiction. IP: Logged |

No I haven't. Hmm. Some of the ones I've met look younger than they actually are though. Supposedly my dominant planet is saturn and people are always telling me I look younger than I am. I was also super strict and a follow-the-rules kind of person in high school and am always behind the times with fads and fashions...I'm just now getting into certain trends now at 23. I guess I can see that. IP: Logged |

To do with planets mainly but I saw a documentary about the chronicles of narnia and apparently each book is related to a planet. The lion, witch and wardrobe being the sun. I wrote a bit of a romance story once with astrology footnotes interwoven into behaviour but I think I could do it better now I've learnt more IP: Logged |

I just watched a video on youtube about this! It was really interesting! Btw The Lion,The Witch,and The Wardrobe is Jupiter. The Voyage of The Dawn Treader is the Sun.IP: Logged |

Hmm, not sure if this is just limited to astrology or what, but here goes.Have you read Reincarnation by Suzanne Weyn? Its not very popular as far as fiction novels go, but I've honestly never read anything that's so thoughtfully and meticulously detailed with regards to reincarnation in fiction. Give it a try, when you can. Attached a GoodReads book review for you here ------------------ Capricorn Sun, Venus, Mars, Mercury and Ascendant Libra Moon :) IP: Logged |
