Astrology: Animated Movies

We just love animated movies, the cartoons we adored as kids, still hit the spot when we are adults. We cry over them, laugh at them and take our kids to see them, entering another world, a magical place where somehow the responsibilities of adult life dematerialize. But what animated movies would our favourite astro signs tend to go for?

ARIES

You will definitely see hotheaded Rams humming to Disney’s cartoon classic “Fantasia”, especially if Mickey Mouse is the Conductor of the Orchestra. The fact that everything “goes ape” as Mickey Mouse gets into conducting “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” and all those walking brooms multiply and flood the cartoon film set, is of no consequence. Everything works out in the end, just like your classic Aries life. So even though our Aries could find themselves facing a sea of troubles, like Mickey they will know deep down that “Tomorrow is another day!”

TAURUS

Taurus might find that old animated movie about farm animals, cows and bulls included, rebelling against their masters an interesting experience. Taurus tends to identify with hard slog and being taken advantage of. So “Animal Farm” the movie based on George Orwell’s book and analysis of repressed peoples standing up to totalitarian states could hit the proverbial “Bull’s Eye”. At any rate this bull might even manage to remain awake instead of snoring through the after dinner video hire as usual!

GEMINI

Your dual personality Gemini will certainly dig “Beauty and the Beast” which could be an exact description of their psyche. Sometimes as sweet as Beauty, sometimes as stroppy as the Beast, the schizoid Gemini mind will be ready to transform their persona at the drop of the hat, and have friends and relatives reaching for the chamomile tea in the process.

CANCER

This watery sign will adore Disney’s “The Little Mermaid”. How sweet that Ariel mermaid is, as she plays with fishy creatures and chats to King Neptune, even breaking into song now and then. Being a mermaid could be on Cancer’s “Fantasy Wish List!” How amazing it would be to have a fish tail, perhaps even understand a crab’s point of view. “Nothing less than sublime” they could muse.

LEO

Leos are liable to adore Disney’s “The Lion King”, a story all about the noble hero’s quest to find himself, or if you like the little cub who grows up to be the obvious King of the Jungle, and breaks into song at the drop of a hat. None other than Elton John could sing that sound track now could they? Lions excel in presentation, even in animated movies.

VIRGO

Virgo will resonate with “Pinocchio”, another Disney creation. They will certainly identify with Jiminy Cricket the talking grasshopper who gives wise advice that nobody listens to! Jiminy “alla Virgo” likes to lead people gently forwards, but do they or Pinocchio, ever listen? No, of course not! Instead, they end up in some Whale’s stomach. Virgo might even sniffle at Jiminy Crickets rendition of “When You Wish upon a Star!” Virgos are pure hearted folk and like the story of a wooden boy’s transformation into a human being!

LIBRA

Libra could get very soppy about “Bambi”. Libras are logical people, balanced people, people inclined to seek beauty and harmony. But when little Bambi’s mummy gets killed by wicked hunters, and Daddy Stag leads Bambi off into an unsure future, and certain trouble, those Libra scales unstick and you will see this astro sign weeping into their Kleenex. Librans dig good, old fashioned sentiments.

SCORPIO

Scorpios cannot take Disney “banalities”. Something a little more complex, a little darker, a little more intense. Japanese animated movies are more their thing. Therefore Hayao Miyazaki’s epic supernatural animation “Spirited Away” has them glued to their seats. Dreams and dark fantasies are more to a “King of the Underworld’s” taste, as is understanding Dracula’s point of view. Cute singing mermaids get on their nerves!

SAGITARIUS

“Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” will be Saggy’s fave. Why, because Saggy identifies with being framed. He or she is so clumsy they have an inborn inclination to upset apple carts, or walk over newly planted flower beds. Anyway, fingers usually point at them when somebody spills wine on the tablecloth. Saggy laughs about being picked on by friends and relatives who tend to see them as a “Toon lookalike!”

CAPRICORN

Cappy will dig nothing less than “Cinderella”. In short, Classic fairy stories that see do it that the bad guys get their comeuppance, as per the ugly sisters! They like ballroom scenes and pink crinolines too. So classic, so tasteful. They also dig “talking mice” and above all “singing goats”. Capricorns will go for nothing less than a happy ending.

AQUARIUS

Okay, it might be dated but “Yellow Submarine” is your Aquarian’s favourite animated movie, certainly bizarre, enough for our “Water Carrier” to get their hooks into. Anyway, how could anyone not dig those nasty “Blue Meanies” or the cartoon renditions of the “Fab Four” Ringo, John, Paul and George? How could anyone not go for the bizarre concept of a “Sea of Holes?” Those who do not really understand the intricacy of the Aquarian mind might see it as a Sea of Holes indeed?

PISCES

The award winning “Finding Nemo” is our Piscean’s favourite animated movie. Pisces has always had an affinity towards fish, look at their goldfish bowl, note their garden pond. So what could be more fascinating that this cute little fish’s search for identity and his conflictual relationship with his daddy fish? Pisces understands the deeper workings of the soul, even if it is the soul of a fish!
