The Initiatory Path in Fairy Tales

Which came first... the chicken, or the egg? Which came first... Humanity, or the symbolic sequences, and their meanings, found in Fairy Tales?

Continuing our exploration of Fairy Tale origins, Gino discovers a book by Bernard Roger called, The Initiatory Path in Fairy Tales: The Alchemical Secrets of Mother Goose. Translated from French, we learn the origins of the terms associated with identifying fairy tales. It turns out that Fairy Tales were always meant for our contemplation to uncover deeper meanings, or pluralities, to the stories. A fairy tales even more profound and crucial than we ever considered here on Otherworld Connections?
