9. Interpretations of Fairy Tales

Thus, the fairy tale world is based on the well-founded belief that everything around us is an enchanted spiritual reality and that human beings come to the truth when they dispel the enchantment of the spiritual world. Of course, we must be aware that a fairy tale is originally the reproduction of an astral event, but that it has been passed on. And people have such a talent for changing individual features! As soon as you collect fairy tales from the mouths of the people, you have the remnants of an old image seen from an astral perspective, but individual features may have been changed. The explainer can then very easily make the mistake of interpreting these added features in a particularly clever way, whereas in the correct explanation of fairy tales one must never misjudge and must accept that one must go back to the original form and recognize it. Everything corresponds to such astral experiences.
