I was thinking recently about the movie "Despicable Me." On the surface level it may appear to be an innocent film about a guy become a father to the average popcorn cruncher. But on a deeper analysis it is about getting stuck in Samsara.Gru’s great super-villain plan is to “steal the moon.” The movie is about him giving up his villain ways to become a father. But why steal the moon? What is super villain about stealing the moon?Now we know that the moon is an artificial satellite which functions as the matrix to force people to reincarnate on earth. Gru was hyperfocused on breaking the matrix.The movie tries to make it look like a good thing that Gru is “giving up being a super villain.” “Look how happy he is get gets to go to his daughter’s ballet recital.” But what’s actually happening is he’s getting trapped in Samsara.
Gru was trying to steal the moon not destroy it, meaning that he wanted not to break the matrix but to become its master. The moral of the story is twofold, admitting of a higher and a lower sense that are mutually inverted. In the lower sense, anyone who would try to enslave maya (mind, illusion, the matrix) to himself will be mastered by her, with the result that he is transformed into a turbo normie (which Apuleius represents as an ass). In the higher sense, on the other hand, if you would not remain ignorant, but realize the truth, then you have to "ride the tiger," or realize avidya-maya as vidya-maya or Parashakti, the consort of Shiva.Incidentally this is what hexagrams have to do with Saturn (or Chronos), the Seal of Solomon represents the inverse analogy of higher and lower or the face of God reflecting in the primordial waters as a mirror image, and Saturn being the ruler of Lead signifies the Gold of knowledge trapped in latent form within the earthen body, in the sub-Lunar realm.
