The Soul Mate Prep Blog#102: Jupiter Ascending-a look at the Heroine's journey...

(Masculine) -Astronomy tells us Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system. (Feminine)- Astrology tells us Jupiter is about expansion and abundance.

Jupiter Ascending is a new film written and directed by the Wachowski siblings. Jupiter Jones is Cinderella-like. Her father was killed before she was born and now Jupiter and her mother are cleaning ladies. But, Jupiter is a reincarnated Queen. Can she reclaim her throne?

The Wachowski siblings were going for the hero's journey with Jupiter. The hero's journey has been told throughout history that the hero's father is absent from the hero's life. The same sex parent has the most influence in a child's life.

So, in the heroine's journey, the mother figure is the most important. However, there is not that much written about the heroine's journey. All we have are tales of Cinderella, Snow White and they are dealing with stepmothers and sisters. As a society, we don't want to accept there are mothers and sisters who are just as cruel. In real life, the women who endure such cruelty become the caretakers for their elderly parents and who in society have been labeled; Old Maids. But, we are living in the twenty-first century and the caretakers can overcome their fate by an enormous amount of self-knowledge! Then they can use their positive father role model and be effective in the world...the servant becomes the heroine!

Of course, this process takes years of uncovering shame and doubt. The "Good Person" becomes a whole person. They are free from outside influence.

With Jupiter ascending, we don't witness Jupiter asserting her influence. But, nonetheless, I loved the film and I especially loved the ending.

Will you see Jupiter Ascending?

Do you think you can transcend your shame and doubt?
