Thank you for the lovely floriography.

The ranunculus symbolism is of charm and attraction. In short, the charm represented by ranunculus flowers extends to both the idea of beauty and the idea of delighting someone (“to be charming.”) A bouquet sends a message that says, “Your charm delights me.”

She's taking control. She wants us to give her our attention while she makes moves.

No more deep V neck, but... she's getting pushed off the balcony soon.

Aren't those her overalls from the Eras Tour rehearsals? She posted this picture on insta, captioned "in my Eras era." She wore them with a shirt that looks really similar to the yellow and black Miss Americana hoodie underneath!

Larkspur and hawk as the brand for her bubble necklace and an aquamarine heirloom ring in the synchronized swimming scene. Rita shoes. I'm so sure.

The cherubs are a very significant set piece in this play.

I could see this as a valid take. But we can't forget the framing device: "Mommy" Laura Dern! In my mind, she represents "mother" Taylor, and the Haims represent Taylor's musical mentees/"Taydaughters(😬)". Mommy is Taylor™️ from Blank Space. She's Nothing New. The Mastermind. The MV is a circle! 🔁

The albums are doorways. A way in/through/out. 🚪 a portal to above the trees/her hiding place in the clouds/a better planet.

Champagne problems. Even the drink is a piece of the costume. It's all part of the act. And that's showbusiness, baby! ❤️‍🔥

Tell me that Taylor's lyrics/imagery/album aesthetics aren't gay, and I can probably find a Sappho fragment that says otherwise. See: the prevalence of violet/gold midnight/daylight themes

And we know what's next! The quinennalia of evermore. The album where she shows us Nemoralia celebration. (Which coincidentally takes place in August)
