Pinocchio is a story of initiation, of striving to overcome darkness and do the right thing. Pinocchio is a character that was weaponised to promote fascism, well after Collodi wrote the story. The 19th century was full of bright, creative and spiritual people. Some of these people created powerful, symbolic art that had such Universal appeal, it could be "hi-jacked" and used for other and perhaps nefarious reasons. It reminds me of how Disney franchise is perceived. A corporate machine using timeless storylines and archetypes for personal gain and potentially disabling our children subversively. I think the importance of highly symbolic and archetypal children's tales is that they are spiritually sustaining and contain accidental or intentional spiritual teachings based on how things naturally work in our shared reality. Evil likes to steel the best, most creative and most powerful ideas. The best creative content in humanity is the Fairy Tale, so we must read Fairy Tales, symbolic stories for children that tap into our soul. We must try harder and do good in the world. Why? Because evil is ever willing to steal and co-opt our ideas. Evil has more time to develop our story for us, because we are busier using our creative capacity!
