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.
