Hey Gino, I’ve read Rumplestilskin more than a hundred times to my daughter, and I have never made the connection of the little elf being the girl’s guardian angel. I have a difficult time letting go of his evil manipulative ways as being “good”, but that goes to show, how deeply rooted the indoctrinating messages I have grown up with are. I’m a 1978 model. Haha!! My daughter is 13 now. I hope she will be receptive to this different perceptive interpretation. Thank you!!

Hi Ineka, good to hear from you! I am still unsure if a "soul helper" means "guardian angel" in the way Steiner explained. And yes, I wonder if it infers that we are being helped and we don't have much say in the matter? The more I discover in these episodes, the more I realise how little I know!! Oh, I'm 1982!
