Tarot imagery pervades our culture, especially that of the Major Arcana. I chose examples from popular films to illustrate this point. I chose to avoid Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, since one could easily do this exercise using nothing but one or the other. You may think some of these examples are a stretch, but if you watch the films and learn about the card, you'll likely see the connection.
