Otherworld Connections Podcast Ep. 18
Fairy tales contain symbols. These symbols are alive with their own deep meanings that resonate inside our soul. The tapestry of these symbols, as fairy tales, follow us around with the desire to guide our life on the path of the hero, with a heart-based consciousness connected with the cosmos. Fairy Tales unlock the code to live a fairy tale life. In this episode we look at Rumpelstilskin, which has the symbolism of how to overcome your circumstances to live an empowered life under Natural Law.
