🗓Taylor set up a #TaylorsVersion CALENDAR easter egg for us in The Man music video, a theory thread 🌟
#15YearsOfTaylorSwift

First things first, the calendar. 📆 I believe it’s split into 3 years by the squares going across. Then you can follow the year’s months by counting the squares downward.

2022 2023 2021

Let’s start with what we know: Fearless was announced in February (2), with the release of Love Story TV. The album dropped in April, and the “era” lasted through May (5). Similarly, Fearless is written starting in square 2 (going down to match the months) &ending in square 5💛💛

My first hit tweet can act as a little bit of evidence on this theory (Yes i’ve been studying this photo since the video)

NEXT🧣we have Red TV! “Red” is written over the scooter sign, announced on Scooter’s birthday, and the sign starts in square 6 (June) “Red” itself starts in square 8 and ends in 11. So Red TV single will drop end of August/beginning of September, album drops in November (11)♥️

Right under Red is “Speak Now” 💜💜💜This starts in square 11, so it will be announced right after Red drops, sometime in November. It ends in square 13, or month 1 of year 2 (2022) so it will drop in January of 2022.
[Notice how the paint drips to show the length of “era”]

Moving to the next year, 2022, we see the next album after Speak Now TV will be 1989 TV. “1989” Starts in square 3 (where SN stops dripping*), announcement and first single in March. The album will drop in June/July to coincide with “1989” ending in top of square 7. 📸

“Taylor Swift” on the poster is in squares 9 and 10, so i think it will drop in October, BUT most of the words on that poster are in my “year 3/2023” column so idk if it’s coming October 2022 or October 2023 😭😭

My first theory on the Mr. Americana poster was a documentary, or docu-series on the making of #TaylorsVersion . This fits with the documentary theme of the poster, but doesn’t make much sense when put on the calendar (7 months long) 📺

My current theory on this poster: this is supposed to represent a tour poster! Taylor will be embarking on a #TaylorsVersion tour to follow the releases of her old music. This will probably be a Greatest Hits type of tour, seems to last the rest of 2022. (The 22 TV tour??😂) 🎤

By the time the tour is over, Taylor will be able to start re-recording Rep, which is why “reputation starts under the poster. It stretched over to square 11 of year 3 (2023) which leads me to believe it will be dropping November of 2023. (but i have a theory about that wait 😉)

⚡️KARMA // bonus theory
I believe in the original TS6. Nothing Taylor said to a sessioner has changed my mind. There was AT LEAST music written and a concept. Taylor wrote KARMA over squares 5-8, because she will be releasing this album from the vault in the summer of 2023. 🌴🎸
