I watched the Kung Fu panda movie the other day; a funny movie with many lessons to teach I believe. Just listened to the video on the Vishvamitra rishi, and it struck me how similar his biography is to Po´s from Kung Fu panda. A human evolving into the highest class of rishi, the lovehate between him and his guru...
It´s also a lot about tolerance and recognizing the value of each and everyone - a huge challenge for an afflicted Vishnu aditya. Ask me, I have it.
And as an extension of that: Realizing that the most absurd solutions might be the only one that actually works, as Ernst mentions in the video about Vishnu. Like befriending your enemies and invite to churn the ocean or accepting an 7 day´s old child as a general...
Finally he breaks the rules and does thing his own way, just as Vishvamitra.
Oh, and one more theme that struck me after having written the original post: the power of manifestation through the mind ot the Vishnu aditya, similar to Varuna. The Kung Fu master fears that the bad guy is going to escape his prison; that very fear sets off a chain of events that helps him to actually escape.
Just thought it was fun. I recommend the movie, at least to those of you who have a childish heart!

Details keep popping up. Also his scarcity mindset - always hungry - that he learns to overcome.

I look at Dicaprio for the example of Vishvamitra, he has many movies about stealing, and also Will smith, Will smith have it very afflicted also. I didn't know about kung Fu Panda I will have a look at it. For Varuna look at the movie with Mila Jovovich, the 5th element, there is also Bruce willis in that move for Dhata. Mila Jovovich Vasishtha stories appears in the movie quite prominently.
There is also his Songs to look at:

for those who don't have the time, I often see a lot of things in a few songs, even in just one. Look at this one for example, I think the father scoding him is the Tvasta Agityas, and he swearing at home is probably Vishnu. He is quite a complex character I would say with many strong Adityas including his Indra Lagna with Venus on top, and he is also born close to an eclipse in Dhata Tvasta. With Bhaga also very strong with mars in there. I watched his new movie on Minecraft it's quite something and quite fun I would say.
@lorris Very interesting, especially, for me, since I´m finishing learning about Tvasta in this very moment and have my AK Moon healthily there; 4th house, very appreciative of my both lineage, very connected to both. My youngest son having his PiK (father) Saturn there, living with my parents in Sweden; this summer he painted a barn that now belongs to a cousin but has been in the family for generations.... Plus my wife has her Saturn there too; her great great grandfather became an official catholic saint, her grandmother a great healer and her father - a crazy guy that she adores - was el comandante of border control in two Mexican states.............
My oldest son has Ketu in Tvasta and I always have this sensation of being the Sun in his life; I don´t want to be too close to him for not to burn him. He too has lived four years with my fathers and is now moving to the country in which he was born for to spend a year with a maternal uncle, and I - with a healthy AK Moon in Tvasta - is very happy that he learns from the rest of the clan and not directly from me. We are going to meet up for two weeks - first time in two years - and that will be enough for a long time. I dearly love my son, but I don´t want to burn him by being too present in his life.
And I do not understand rock n´roll at all. Like: at all. Grew up listening to "nice" RR like Pink Floyd, Jehtro Tull, Yes and fun RR like the Stranglers and Dead Kennedys; it lost all attraction on me when I was around 17 or 18, and since then: nothing. Heavy Metal: nothing. My Moon in Tvata is very healthy, so although I have had severe conflicts with my father I have no need for rebellion against the paternal law. Rather I´ve criticized him for not upholding it...

Yeah tvasta have been quite amazing to me, my brother has it there with ketu in the 10th and he never rebelled against his father, which is something I didn't understand at all. Like he is taking over my father roles slowly and slowly, yet bending his will to him. I don't think it's totally healthy but now I get it more why he is like that. Moon in Virgo or the Sun there I see it differently now. I wonder also now that I have studied a bit more if those Adityas can reveal more physical appearance. I mean for example the Vishnu Adityas is the most obvious, it makes them fat I think or a tendency to be watery, hands super sweaty or body parts. For Tvasta I think I'm starting to see it more in their face now, I can't quite put what it is yet, but I see those traits more now. And it seems to give some strong authority I think and sometimes in your face "belligerent" in a way. I'm not sure how to describe this though. Gemini aura is also easier to see now, I can guess more easily just by watching someone which Aditya is strong.
