I'm on the journey of finding my dominant sign in sidereal astrology because I'm just so stuck. I feel like I look mars dominant and relate to that personality the most but I was also thinking maybe I could be Jupiter dominant so I want your guys opinion. My moon is mrigashira which is ruled by mars. I've watched all Claire Nakti videos and mars makes the most sense to me I resonate with the personality of Venus women too. I'm Bharani sun so that would make sense

And it's this picture specifically where I see it and I remember watching Claire Nakti's video on mars dominant women and she showed Khloe Kardashian and I saw the resemblance.

A picture where I'm smiling bc I also noticed their smiles are very pretty and a prominent feature I always get complimented on mine I think Claire Nakti said something about them being gummy which I do have a gummy smile when I smile genuinely and very big. And people would always talk about Megan's smile too 😭.

She's a mrigashira moon and dhanishta asc btw

And to be fair I think this is after some surgery but I feel like we look similar here

Mrigashira moon and chrittika asc

I'm only adding Megan bc she is Dhanishta sun but I don't think she's mars dominant idk she is a Magha moon and she looks like Magha and mars to me and her personality fits mars dominant

And ofc I don't look exactly like these women but this is the only planet that makes sense for me and I do see some resemblance unlike the other planets. The other planets I was thinking about were Venus, Jupiter, and maybe just maybe ketu.

I'm heartbroken, now I just want Stephen and Christine to be endgame somehow.

Review: Doctor Strange (2016)

Rating: 8.5 out of 10

Benedict Cumberbatch is Stephen Strange, a hot-shot neurosurgeon turned master of sorcery, in this latest installment of Marvel Cinematic Universe.

While Thor was being coy about magic and claiming that science and magic are the same in his Thor movies, Doctor Strange (the movie, not the character) never argues about it. Yes, Stephen Strange is a doctor and a skeptic, first and foremost, but as he became a believer, so did we as the audience. From that moment onward, magic was never questioned. And boy, what a pretty magic they were.

Remember Inception? Remember the mind-trippingly iconic manipulation of cities and buildings in that movie? Crank those images you have in your mind to 11, and you'd get something resembling the pure beauty of magic in Doctor Strange. They're gorgeous, dynamic, and intensely mesmerizing. Even when Strange is not running from buildings rolling down the street, or running up in the ceiling, the visualization of magic in Doctor Strange is just breathtaking--and especially, unique.

The cast is also a huge part of why the movie works. Benedict Cumberbatch is subdued enough, but with enough levity and charisma to be an iconic Marvel superhero. (And the fact that he looks almost exactly like the comic book character doesn't hurt either). Chiwetel Ejiofor and Benedict Wong are the perfect sidekicks, and Rachel McAdams is the perfect grounding character. I’m not too pleased with how they leave her character, but McAdams is great. Mads Mikkelsen and his sinister kind of charisma makes a memorable villain, even if he doesn't talk much. Forgetting the controversy around the casting of The Ancient One, Tilda Swinton is reliably splendid as the mystical character.

But while it has pretty solid characterization and plot, enjoyment of Doctor Strange depends mostly on visually immersive experience. For me, the story itself almost felt like a TV pilot. It's basically 100% set up, with teasers of what he might be like as a full-fledged Marvel superhero in the future. Doctor Strange is not a bad standalone movie at all, it's just almost meaningless if you don't take into account that we'll be seeing him again in future installments. However, I don’t mind much because I really do think Doctor Strange is a new stepping stone in MCU, in terms of accepting magic. It has an excellent world-building that doesn’t detach itself from the rest of franchise, and the visual is worth every penny.

I suggest you to see it either in 3D (if you like 3D movies at all, although maybe beware with motion sickness if you’re sensitive) because I think it'll be gorgeous, or at least see it in a good middle seat in your trusty cinema to get the most immersive experience. I saw it in cinema with crappy sound, and I really, really wish I had a different experience.

TL;DR Full of magical visual, Doctor Strange is one more solid Marvel origin story.

Film Noir - I have to apologize. I am a shitty photographer. None of the paintings that I photograph come out looking like they do in real life. Anyways...I used warm grays in this painting which reminded me of the old classic film noir genre.
