#taylor and joe

[wildfloweronwheels]

this tracklist has me thinking so many thoughts you guys.

they broke up a fortnight into tour... the first show post joever was in florida... who's afraid of little old me being a twist on who's afraid of virginia woolf a film which starred elizabeth taylor and richard burton about a couple whose relationship breaks down at late night drinks in front of people... my boy only breaks his favourite toys - is she the toy??? free from the slammer where the slammer is an obvious reference to jail after all the criminal metaphors of her and joe tricking the system... but daddy i love him being a reference to the little mermaid where she gave up her voice for a man... clara bow being a 1920's film star who found her voice, married a guy who denied they were ever married publicly and then died + the majority of her fame coming from silent films where she literally didn't need to have a voice and then successfully transitioning into 'talkies' (films with sound).... the smallest man who ever lived vs. 'the loudest woman this town has ever seen who had a marvellous time ruining everything'... oh boy.

Imagine telling yourself at the start of this year that Taylor would have two different boyfriends come see her perform on the eras tour and neither of them would be Joe

[justbetweenus8789]

To me this album has solidified the fact that Taylor was mourning the end of her relationship with Joe for a long time before she pulled the trigger, and the cracks where there from the start basically (by that I don’t mean it was bad all the way through. But that the fundamental incompatibility was always gonna come out. see the epilogue). The colour was slowly draining out of that relationship until she felt almost numb.

It seems like at some point when she reconnected w matty during either midnights or around the time she performed at the 1975 show in London he could smell the fact she was dying inside and why. Ie being ignored by joe, his resentment and jealousy and indifference to her. He then essentially lovebombed her in a targeted way making her think he’d give her all the feelings Joe wasn’t willing to. This is all over the record. And I think she knew she was gonna run to matty when she broke up with him . He made her feel amazing and postponed some of the pain of joe.

Then when he ghosted it hit lik a double whammy (see the prophecy).

I can’t stop thinking how painful it must have been in 2020-2 to have everyone talking about this secret engagement or marriage and the fact that they were “obviously hiding it well”. It’s a lesson to us all I guess. Also don’t wanna sound snarky but when midnights came out me and many others said there were red flags all over it and we were worried, and that was construed as “hate”. Idk.

Anyway- more than any of her previous records I feel like this album was for her. She made it bc she had to stand up for herself- and while she’s always stood up for herself - she’s never explicitly called out bad fan behaviour bc that’s hard to do. I’m really proud of her for doing that here . And just being so loudly messy. She’s never been more human to me and I’m so proud of her

taylor swift and joe alwyn composite chart houses

7th house: the composite 7th house governs how you are as a couple, how much you’re focused on the relationship, how you move together as one, and the other people that you interact with together.

taurus 7th house : with the composite 7th house in taurus, you may be a pairing that interacts with others with great calm, or the people in your life may seem like calming forces. while the external face of the relationship may be intense, there can be an ease with commitment, and this can help buoy the partnership. if may be difficult for you to see together when you’re being stubborn and stuck, yet you may encounter others who are that way with the two of you.

7th house ruler in 3rd house: circumstance: meeting them through social media, dating apps, online. meeting through one of your hobbies. meeting them when you’re gaining a new skill: learning something/ taking a class. meeting them when you’re in a really busy time of your life. a time when you’re socializing a lot. meeting on a trip or something to do with driving. person: someone who is talkative, childish, playful, witty, intelligent, or humorous. someone that has many different skills or hobbies. the kind of person to be communicative and opinionated. someone who can be sort of “gemini-like” union: a relationship that is like a friendship. a dynamic where you’re competitive together. can feel like a “sibling” dynamic. a union where you communicate together, exchange ideas and learn from each other. being on social media together.

moon in 7th: with the composite moon in the 7th house, this is the house of relationships, so this can be a good placement for virtually any relationship, personal or professional. you each can focus on the relationship a great deal, feeling more secure and confident when you feel the relationship is solid and strong. you can work extra hard to make sure you’re each putting in your fair share of work to maintain the relationship, but you also need to make sure the relationship doesn’t become an emotional crutch for either of you.

8th house: the composite 8th house shows how we use what we have together and share with one another. this house also governs intimacy and sex, so it can also show how we connect on a physical level in romantic partnerships (in a way that may be different from individually in the natal chart).

gemini 8th house: with the composite 8th house in gemini, you may come up with plenty of ideas for what you should do with the resources you have together, and you may be a little scattered as a result. information and knowledge can be powerful, so you can do your homework first before making decisions to avoid being impulsive and scattered. in a romantic relationship, physical intimacy may need to come after a mental connection is built.

8th house ruler in 3rd house: you often desire a certain level of unpredictability and instability once a commitment is made. to some degree you’re unstable and that can transverse as non-committal in the house of “commitment” which may cause the surrounding environment to wane and fluctuate in an unhealthy manner. the real issue here is that you secretly have a complex about the perfect romance and often times the more mundane and predictable sides of being committed secretly bore you. you want excitement of not really knowing whether or not your lover will be there the next day which often can be sad due to the fact that their are often two faces present here! the one that wants excitement and the one that actually wants to be committed to someone. the odd thing here is that often for these natives once the committed twin wins over they often can place a high value on communication and open emotional expression despite their logical approach to settling down. all this taken into account once they kill off the fickle twin they don’t just commit to their lovers...they submit to them fully. your lover could shy away during this phase though as they’ll feel like it’s either they keep up or get out..but once they survive that part they’ll adore the committed and often completely sympathetic backing. once commitment is established you can frolic like a child in a field across your lovers body! you become experimental but also a bit of a bi-polar off and on type-you’ll often initiate sex in multiple ways.

jupiter in 8th: with composite jupiter in the 8th house, you can find it easier to deal with the serious aspects of the relationship, and deal with serious matters together. the darker side to this house can be somewhat muted with jupiter here, and you can be less prone to struggling over power and control. you can help to transform one another and deal with deeply-held issues that you’d normally keep buried.

chiron in 8th: you help each other heal from wounds related to loss, sexuality and power. you may be instrumental in helping each other reclaim your sexual power or overcoming wounds related to manipulation. you can help each other create understanding and perspective surrounding losses, crisis and personal tragedies. it’s easy for you to both hold space for each other’s grief and fears. you may have to struggle to help each other find transformation but once you begin to turn pain and fears into empowering change, you’ll both be able to shift from seeing yourselves as victims to seeing yourselves as powerful healers and leaders.

pholus in 8th: you can help each other face dramatic transformation and work through major turning points together. through this relationship you both find empowerment and perspective. you help each other release past fears and insecurities. your intuition helps you both pick up on small details that have dramatic ramifications. you can both become obsessed with shared wealth, security and resources, especially during times of dramatic change. small changes you both make can lead to cataclysmic changes. you are called to help each other embrace transformation. you may also help each other navigate major changes and turning points that help you both to unleash your sexual power and find greater clarity on what you desire. your relationship to each other can bring courage and focus in the midst of dramatic shifts and upsetting changes.

pallas in 8th: you are both easily able to do your best problem-solving work when it comes to dealing with matters of the subconscious and secret desires. you are both able to blend your intellectual and intuitive gifts to advocate for others’ rights to sexual freedom and you may be strategic about helping others to share power in relationships. this relationship can be a source of intense inspiration and you may both be motivated and determined to help each other succeed in accomplishing your goals of helping others navigate through change and transformation. you may also both have a psychic sense about strategies for problem solving that bring empowerment and new focus to others.

11th house ruler in 3rd house: being versatile is something that characterizes these natives; they can fit in with any group, however they like to hang out with individuals who share their interests. astrology, drawing, digital art, having a blog, photography, traveling and playing video games are some of the hobbies that the native may have. they enjoy activities that challenge them somehow. some of them may encounter (and get along pretty well) either many people with gemini placements/3rd house placements/dominant mercuries in the course of their life. something that i have noticed in many of these natives is that they tend to be quite intelligent, and despite this, they do not study a lot or participate in class. they tend to like to learn on their own and hate wasting time studying, even feeling overwhelmed by the idea of ​​studying, unless they are studying on their own. these natives feel a very deep connection with their friends, coming to consider them family, to be more specific, they usually see them as brothers. they tend to interact in a friendly and witty way when wanting to forge new friendships. they tend to keep their friends from school regardless of the passage of time, however, remembering that astrology is ambiguous, i have also noticed the other side of the coin, and that is that it may have been difficult for them to make friends at school or feel that they fit in. with their classmates. their relationship with their siblings is usually somewhat complex and changing. the relationship can be a bit extreme, oscillating between getting along very well with each other and sometimes not wanting to see each other. siblings of the natives can have strong aquarius, saturn, uranus or 11th House energy or placements. something that perfectly describes them is their curiosity, being people who seek to find a deeper meaning to everything that is mundane or part of their day to day. they often have a huge desire to travel to know and explore or to have a job that allows them to travel. they are people willing and open to change. (if the ruler is badly aspected, their dedication to achieving their goals can give them a lonely life and perhaps fewer social contacts than they would like). do you want to get their attention? don't be afraid of being judged. something that they find admirable is people who are able to express their thoughts in a direct and unique way. abstract, complex and interesting minds will definitely catch their eye. these people are hardly understood by people, especially when others try to read what they write. i have noticed that the writing of these natives changes a lot and that they tend to write very fast. they speak and write with a unique, clever, entertaining, and easygoing style. they are quite social and have a remarkable ability to make new and helpful connections very quickly.

Taylor, Joe, Travis: We accept the love we think we deserve

Someone said a few weeks ago that that quote summed up Taylor and Joe and it really stuck with me cause it's true. Taylor and Joe got together at her lowest, and he wasn't promising her anything. Booty calling her from dive bars so late she was already in bed. Let her think he was fucking other girls in London. Never showed his cards. Eventually, she got sick and tried to leave and he admitted he was in this for real.

And he was for real. He helped her stand up again and once she was on her feet, she put him on a pedestal. Felt small. Thought she was wasting his honor(What, is this some medieval times?) if she dared to talk shit with her friends. Called him her literal lifeline. Wrote such adoring love songs.

Meanwhile? He gets asked his favorite Taylor Swift song? He's not going into THAT side of the world. Talking about her? Never? Marrying her? A "pathological people pleaser" like her? That's a thing he'd never do. Her pain? They had years for her pain, only his pain mattered now.

She followed him around the world, recording albums, having Jack with her. Ireland, Croatia, even a quick stint in Panama. Was his date at wrap parties. Where was he at her Doctorate speech? His family knew it mattered. At awards show? Where was the posts for the albums they wrote together? He chose to take a role right before Eras, the most important tour of her life, something she trained for for half a year.

But during those horrible years, where he left her standing, she worked on loving herself. She took steps, then more, to stairs, and climbed them to find a door to the world. She improved herself and she's never felt more mentally ready to handle the public. And she won't keep compromising herself for a shitty love in the shadows. Joe wouldn't move, so if she wanted to move, she had to leave.

And the world was open to her. And being so secure led her to a man on a podcast who wanted to give her a handmade bracelet with numbers on it. Her friends knew him and he was kind and funny and he jumped into her fish bowl with pattered flippers and a snorkel but invited her into his fish tank with plenty of things to take solace(NOT hide but take solace) behind and other friendly fishes but most of all, when they are in front of the glass?

He says he better not be the one acting strange. She shows up for him. He shows up for her. They are proud of each other.

She is in a much better place and accepted a much more secure love because she knows now that she deserves it.

[zoelovestayloralisonswift]

I feel for Taylor and Joe in this situation. If it is true, which I kind of doubt, I won’t believe anything unless Taylor or her team speak out about it. It’s so sad that the news/media are EATING this up like they are starving or something. Like literally it’s terrible and if anything, I hope Taylor is doing ok (whether it is true or not)

[sunflowervolum-6]

Im literally not going to be involved in any celebrity relationship now

[lilyw1235]

"hand on the throttle" the prophecy which is about her just wanting a relationship that will last but the universe not giving her that

"brand new, full throttle" so high school which as we all know is about Travis kelce. Maybe the prophecy has finally changed.

Is there a connection there or am I reading too much into it?

[professionalgeekgirly]

Joe Alwyn, get behind me, I CAN fight

Listen, I truly don't know why I have such a strong urge to defend some white man. But I'm slightly drunk and some of the discourse concerning this poor guy I see on the internet makes me see fucking red.

The amount of digs at Joe I see daily on social media is seriously baffling to me. The same three unfunny jokes about him being poor, jobless, hiding her in the basement and Taylor "finally dating a successful man".

This actually offers some interesting insight into an American mind, I think. Because in what world is Joe Alwyn some kind of pathetic loser they make him up to be? He's a very talented actor. He has degrees from Bristol and CSSD. He was in several Oscar-nominated films, he worked with Ang Lee, Yorgos Lanthimos, Claire Denis. Watch any interview with him - he's a handsome, soft-spoken, well-read, intelligent guy.

Just because he hasn't won any Super Bowls, doesn't mean Taylor had spent six years with a jobless loser-parasite taking advantage of her money and fame.

Joe will probably never have the level of fame and commercial success Travis has. I don't see any box office smash hits in his future, he's not getting into MCU any time soon. This man will keep hopping around Sundance and Cannes, narrating audiobooks, doing A24 movies, Pinter plays and BBC limited series until he's old and gray.

It's completely fine to have a very private relationship, it's also okay to shout about your love from the rooftops. I find both beautifully romantic in completely different ways. And it's normal to want and need different things at different times in your life. This is clearly what happened to Taylor.

I have a strong suspicion that the reason most swifties love Taylor with Travis so much is because he gives them easier access to her. We all have our preferences, you all want a lovable extroverted himbo, a quiet British actor who knows a lot of Shakespeare is much more up my alley.

And remember - there will be happiness after you but there was happiness BECAUSE of you, both of these things can be true...

[iwanderthroughthesenights]

I am particularly intrigued by each of the bonus tracks because as we saw with Midnights, the fact that these songs usually remain mostly within the fandom because they're more shielded from the radar of the "general public/locals" gives her a lot of freedom to be even more honest and raw, and also to address topics that are more uncomfortable and/or controversial (see: all the tracks in the 3am edition).

We know The Black Dog is most likely referencing impending depression. I'm so curious to see if it'll talk about that period of all-consuming sadness that happened after the breakup and the rebound, or if it will actually be about a period where she was deeply depressed during the last years of their rs OR, which is what I feel is more likely for some reason, if there was a period where both Taylor and Joe were very depressed but together, bc of something that happened that they had to face together and were both deeply sad about. The death of a loved one, the loss of something, the end of a period of time where they were both happy in their rs and had the right balance, a disappointing outcome to something one or both of them worked really hard on, the crumbling of something they were expecting or looking forward to that ultimately couldn't happen. So many possibilities, these are just very general descriptions.

We know a big aspect of their dynamic was being sad together and reflecting about life, often through that sadness. In LPSS, when explaining hoax, Taylor talks about how she thinks a part of love is "who would you be sad with?". It's quite interesting how this is such a strong recurrent theme in the art she made with Joe as a muse. "I'm with you even if it makes me blue", "Don't want no other shade of blue but you, no other sadness in the world would do", "The rain is always gonna come if you stand in with me", "I'm a fire and I'll keep your brittle heart warm, if your cascade ocean wave blues come", "Those Windemere peaks look like a perfect place to cry", "I want auroras and sad prose", "I wish to know the fatal flaw that makes you long to be magnificently cursed", "You don't really read into my melancholia", "Tears on the letter, I vowed not to cry anymore if we survived the Great War", "why don't you rain on my parade? Shred my evening gown, read my sentence out loud, cause I love this curse on our house", "how long could we be a sad song till we were too far gone to bring back to life?".

[wildfloweronwheels]

Back in 2021, upon the re-release of her version of ‘Red’, Taylor Swift described the album as her “first real exploration of adult heartbreak’. All scarlet hues and secret oaths, scarves lost to time and vibrant aches in colour so bright she was left blinded.

Well if that was her first, this is her glorious second. All sepia tones and maps made from scars. It’s black, white and shades of grey, the life that swam down the drain. It's rings that never came and veils worn in death (not marriage), baby names tucked away and a knight come to save the day. Except while he was meant to be healing wounds, he was building a second tomb.

- An extract from my review of The Tortured Poets Department which you can read here

[the-hushed-one]

Taylor Swift dating MH, who is completely opposite of Joe Alwyn is just looking as if she wants us to know that she wants someone who is completely opposite of Joe. She is getting seen in public with Matty and everybody knows that Taylor controls when she is seen and when she is not seen. It is like she wants the world to know that she has moved on and forgotten the existence of Joe

This is quite hurtful and I am not choosing sides in the jaylor breakup, but the way Taylor is acting is quite immature. I mean MH is a racist, an islamophobic and has done so many horrendous things. Whereas Taylor is none of that. 

It is like she wants to rub it in our faces that she does not want to date a good guy. I mean MH himself once said that it would be emasculating to date Taylor. And now she is dating him. I wonder how she was even friends with him after he said that. We can’t even know how Joe must feel. 

Watching your ex move on after you have spent six years with them and your ex publicly speaking how she’s never been happy and stuff... This is just very sad. Getting a rebound is fine but a rebound with an old friend who is definitely not a good person? Either she is too sad that she is self-sabotaging, or she is just acting very immaturely. 

But still, it is her life and I don’t think she would really care if we support her and Matty. 

But I still miss dad lol<3

[kingreader]

the streets are saying taylor and joe broke up???? i just fell to my knees in a walmart

[please-picturemeintheweeds]

Guys, if Taylor fundamentally agreed with Joe about the way that she wanted to handle her current fame level, they would’ve taken steps together to manage it. That’s what happened back in 2016, and why they were such a good fit originally. Based on the People article, it really seems like they had a fundamental difference in how to move forward. Fame sucks, yes, and brings specific challenges, but Taylor is the fucking man and she knows it! She put King on the pre show playlist for a reason!! I obviously can’t speak for the woman, but her career wasn’t “getting in the way of her relationship”- frankly, that is a pretty sexist way of looking at the situation. She and her partner had different goals, perspectives, ambitions, etc! That’s not bad! Her wanting to share her life with the world is like a fundamental part of her personality and has been since she was 14!!! She shines so bright!!!! A diamond’s gotta shine!!!!!!!! And the guy who helped her cultivate an extremely private life when she was pushed from the precipice is not necessarily going to be the best support system for her while she rekindles her complicated relationship with her powerful ambitions and works towards solidifying her legend status by churning out masterpiece after masterpiece spanning artistic mediums! This isn’t the sexist “can women have a demanding career and a husband?” dilemma y’all are making it out to be. Of course she can, just not with this specific person, and that’s OK!
