Which series according to my astrological sign?

• Ram (March 21 – April 20): The Walking Dead

What plays out throughout the narrative, under the veneer of the fight against the strange perils that attack humanity unabated, is the power of the instinct for self-preservation and survival. It’s the perfect metaphor for Ram, a horned beast that does not look up, but rushes forward, head down, without questioning itself. “How to live ?” is the question posed by the series and the sign.

• Bull (April 21 – May 21): : Gilmore girls

We can safely say that this series is typically Bull : it chronicles the relationship between Lorelai, an independent and very talkative young mother, and her daughter Rory, a teenager whose greatest wish is to go to university and read as many books as possible. “How can we flourish with what is given to us?” they seem to be wondering. We don’t change the scenery, everything can be experienced in the same place, because the problems are enough to fill the calendar. This unity of place symbolizes the inner richness of Taurus, who does not feel the need to leave his enclosure to live.

• Gemini (May 22 – June 21) : TheWire

Each of the 5 seasons that make up this series covers an aspect of the sprawling city of Baltimore, in the United States (the police, the world of work with the docks, drug-related crime, politics and education, the media ). A slew of characters, who all embody, in their own way, one of the faces of the city, a facet of the reality of our protean society refers to the adaptability of the Gemini. Gemini symbolizes this desire to say everything at once and to see each side of reality from its own angle: Gemini is in perpetual experimentation.

• Cancer (June 22 – July 22): Orange Is the new Black.

The series recounts the arrival in prison of Piper, an American well in every way, who goes from a comfortable life of thirty years old making organic soaps to that of a prisoner, incarcerated for drug trafficking. In the series, each woman personifies an emotion. The protagonists-emotions are afraid of each other, they can close in on themselves but also help each other. “How to mature?” is the central question of the series as of the sign of the Cancerand refers to the delicate learning of oneself living the confinement of the self.

• Lion (July 23 – August 22): Insecure.

Led by the American-Senegalese screenwriter, actress, director and producer Jo-Issa Rae Diop, known as Issa Rae, the series narrates, through the wanderings of the main character, Isa herself, the difficult path to move forward in life. . In the series, Issa co-stars with Molly, her best friend-enemy; the perpetual testing of their friendship exalts Leo’s inner struggle, which oscillates between the need to dominate and the fear of being rejected. The difficulty that each one encounters, to evolve under the gaze of the other, also echoes the problem of the sign: more than the gaze of others, it is that which he bears on his own person that the Leo fears.

• Virgin (August 23 – September 22): The office

There’s no better example than this nine-season show to describe the serious craziness and rational madness of the Virgin. “How to extract the best from yourself in a rotten world?”, seems to be the question posed by this documentary collection which fits perfectly with the spirit of the sign.

• Balance (September 23 – October 22): Sex and the City

Focused on the sentimental and sexual life of 4 characters living the end of their thirties in a New York of the 2000s, the series captures in 6 seasons, both in its clumsiness and it is a masterstroke, the perfect imperfection of the Balance.

• Scorpio (October 23 – November 22): Game Of Thrones

It’s not just because there’s a lot (too much?) of sex and violence in the series that the parallel with the energy Scorpio seems to prevail. “How to face yourself?” questions the series. Scorpio’s job in the zodiac is to take charge of the difficult emotions, the things lurking in the back of the mind to both deal with them and guard against them.

• Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21): The Leftovers

A brilliant and difficult series, The Leftovers is certainly the most interesting of the productions of the 2010s: its field of interpretation is infinite. The narration begins 3 years after the total disappearance, without explanation, of 2% of the world’s population and tells how those who remain adapt to this staggering event by continuing to live. “How to give meaning to the world?”, seems to be the question that underlies the story and torments the sign of the Sagittarius. The characters show a perseverance in pushing the limits of the mind to understand what is beyond them in an approach that is both optimistic and desperate … like Sagittarius.

• Capricorn (December 22 – January 20): breaking Bad

Walter White is an ordinary family man, former researcher in physics chemistry. When he learns that he has an incurable cancer, he decides to take his life into his own hands and save money for his family before he dies, by manufacturing the dreaded drug crystal meth, with one of his former students turned drug dealer. We may be surprised at the path chosen by Walt, but it is a perfect illustration of the dynamics of the Capricorn : no matter the task, what counts is the effort that leads to the construction of the plan.

• Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) : Halt and Catch Fire

It does not seem possible to choose anything other than this alternative confidential series to describe the energy of the Aquarius. Relating the beginnings of the invention of the personal computer, it begins in 1980, when this technology was not yet accessible to the average household and no one really knew these big machines. We understand the stakes of this revolution through 3 characters: the loneliness of the sign, monopolized by its brilliant ideas, the freedom to think everything, but also the will to break the codes and not to obey the rules. The cohesion between the 3 characters is also the cornerstone of the series: it is the whole problem of Aquarius, who clings to his independence at all costs while wanting to achieve great things with others.

• Pisces (February 20 – March 20) : Sense8

The series chronicles the strange connection between 8 characters, of distinct class, country, origin and gender, able to communicate and feel the same things. By discovering this faculty, they learn little by little to share their knowledge of their potentialities, by helping each other in situations in difficult situations and by taking advantage of their common moments of happiness and ecstasy. It is the axis of Pisces : contain all the intentions, emotions and ideas of the world, the good as well as the bad, by synthesizing all the signs of the zodiac.
