Jack and The Beanstalk most likely was written a very long time ago. Marie Cachet and Varg Vikerenes' decoding, or maieutics appear to be rock solid. Linking back to the bear-cult of the stone age, Jack and the Beanstalk explains important knowledge of procreation, child development and spirituality. Through allegory and symbol, the story explains pregnancy, childbirth and the reincarnation of the ancestor in the child at age seven. This episode feels like the deeper we go, the more we are barely scratching the surface. There is evidence of the footprints of seven-year-old footprints in prominent positions of ancient ritual sites in France. This further emphasises the societal importance of the transition from early childhood to age seven and the change of teeth. With the number seven popping up in fairy tales, we have found a lead into our next topic: to find solutions to contemporary problems by looking at old ways.
