A Four Week Journey into the Enchanted Self
Description of Class
Deemed mere childhood fantasies, the true meaning of fairy tales have often been veiled and hidden, but the teachings of the soul are revealed in these stories we have come to know and love.
For centuries, fairy tales have been an oral dialogue between mortal humans and the enchanted configurations of nature, the animal kingdom, fairies, angels, and all that the imagination can produce.
Fairy stories serve as a stepping-stone between worlds, offering humanity a magical tour into our unending search for wholeness. The treasure trove of mythological texts surviving from our ancestral past confirms that our deepest quest for love and truth is a recurring theme at the heart of the fairy tale.
