One thing that has been bothering me is that I don't think the film has a Broken Aesop.
I would not bet my right arm that Aronofsky is not a climate change denialist, but he did make a huge point of showing that humans are destroying Mother Nature in the whole film; so, taking that into account, it carrying a message about how things happen exactly the way they should seems oddly out of place.
In the film, Him does not live with one being that is reborn every time; there are three different beings that, while similar-looking, are different characters (with completely different names, no less), have different ages, and are portrayed by different actresses.
Therefore, it makes more sense to think of the film as a pessimistic Green Aesop, for the way humans are destroying Mother Nature on Earth and, after they're finished, will just go on to destroy it in another habitable (i.e., similar-looking) planet.
