In the Main Stream
I’ve mentioned my family musical Another Place In Time on this blog a few times. It’s a show I’ve been working on for years, and it has a very special place in my heart.
As with anything one has spent so much time, energy, and love creating, one wants to know it will “make it” out there in the wide, wide world.
And I must admit, I had a few doubts, well just ONE doubt really, the dancing and singing tarot cards.
(They are not really giant cards, but people dressed in costumes to personify the cards they represent).
Honestly, I wouldn’t even mind the dancing and singing cards, I am an Alice in Wonderland and general Disney fan, after all…
I was nervous about tarot itself, that it was too far outside the main stream.
Well, after pouring through a recent Oprah magazine, I realized that I need fret no more, apparently, tarot is SOOOO in the main stream (slight pun intended) that maxi-pad brands are using them in advertising campaigns. The ad I saw had a card called “The Protector” with a big pad in the middle. (Apparently, it’s a major arcana card.)
In being so protective (again, the opportunity for a pun was too good to pass up), I didn’t even realize how accessible tarot has become.
Ironically, tarot has yet again done its job and changed my perspective.
