Most of the fairy tales are ancient folklores & it's hard to trace back to it's original creators. Still I wanted to see which nakshatra natives has contributed to this field.

These German scholars are perhaps the most famous fairy tale collectors of all time. This collection was actually done as a part of their academic work.
Many popular tales reached a wider audience through their collection, including:

⭐Little Red Riding Hood
⭐Hansel and Gretel
⭐Snow White
⭐Sleeping Beauty
⭐The Frog Prince
⭐Rapunzel
This reminds me of wannowing basket symbol of Purva Asadha; separating good from the bad. After going on a journey of gathering knowledge in Mula, at this stage we're "sorting out" the information we've gathered & making it more refined & palatable ♀️
Charles Perrault

Shravana Ketu

He is sometimes dubbed the "father of fairy tales"
Charles Perrault was a French writer who lived in the 1600s and wrote stories inspired by folk tales. His collection Les Contes de ma Mère l’Oye (Stories of Mother Goose) was very influential
Some tales he is best known for include:
⭐Little Red Riding Hood
⭐Sleeping Beauty
⭐Cinderella**
⭐Bluebeard
⭐Puss in Boots
**His version of Cinderella, for example, is the one English speakers are most familiar with (with the fairy godmother and the pumpkin carriage etc.)
This is so interesting to me that Disney Cinderella was played by a pisces as well similar to Perrault

Jyestha ⤴️
Punarvasu ketu
Andersen was a Danish fairy tale writer active in the 1800s. His collections of Eventyr (Fairy Tales) contain many beloved and popular fairy tales that have since inspired many adaptations and retellings, and his name is one synonymous with fairy tales.
Famous tales include:

⭐The Little Mermaid 
⭐The Snow Queen
⭐Thumbelina
⭐The Ugly Duckling
⭐The Princess and the Pea
⭐The Steadfast Tin Soldier
⭐The Nightingale
⭐The little match girl

(can you see the revati influence?)
Specially ugly ducking is said to be inspired by his own life. Even after being so widely successful & well known he was never at peace & always felt like an outcaste.(bharani being outcaste nakshatra)
Also this concept of drastic transformation (mermaid to human/ ducking to swan) can be co-related to his Jyestha / Scorpio rising.
many of his works like little mermaid was inspired by his own unrequited love. He has an exalted venus, so unconditional/ unrequited love is a prominent theme.
The nightingale has that "return of the light" theme of punarvasu

Joseph Jacobs was an Australian folklorist who published several collections of classic English fairy tales. His collections contain what are now some of the best known versions of famous tales, and were very influential.
Some well-known fairy tales from Jacobs’s Collection:

🐷The Three Little Pigs
🌱Jack and the Bean Stalk
🐻Goldilocks and the three Bears
Anuradha with animal influence keep showing (similar to alice in wonderland)
Jack & the bean stalk seemed more swati to me 🌱🧐 what do you think? qrt
not to mention the wolf was trying to blow off the pigs houses 🌬️

Mrigashira Ketu
His Arabian Nights – a version of the Arabic 1001 Nights collection was particularly influential. It included -

🧞‍♂️Aladdin
🧞‍♂️ The seven voyage of Sindbad
🧞‍♂️The forty Theives
🧞‍♂️ The rat catcher a.k.a pied piper of hamelin
"pied piper" Seems like a mix of his Revati (the magician / rat cather 🎣) & rat yoni 🐀 influence

also voyage of sindbad & forty theives was very Revati as well? 🧐
Another interesting co-relation in disney Aladdin, Jasmin was voiced by a ♓ ☀️ ♌🌙 as well.
Antoine Galland

Anuradha / Jyestha 🌙
Shravana Ketu
🧞‍♂️ translated the 1001 Nights collection into French from the original Arabic, and is believed to have invented the popular stories Aladdin and Ali Baba, because they do not appear in original Arabic versions.
So overall both of the writer / collector of Aladdin & Ali baba has Revati ☀️

Adeventure of Pinocchio seems very krittika/solar (leo) to me. story of a wooden boy becoming a human. Also his nose becoming longer with each lie 🤥 (he was very lunar initially) but eventually became more solar & honest.

Robin hood definetly seems very swati / libra to me. Also the choosen one archetype in Arthur with moon influence (rohini ketu)
Marie-Catherine d’Aulnoy
* exact birth date unavilable

Swati Ketu
Bharani Rahu

coined the term “fairy tales” that we now use for the genre
Madame d’Aulnoy was a French countess/baroness and writer who published two fairy tale collections, Les Contes des Fées (Fairy Tales).While her fairy tales don’t tend to be the versions most popular today, she was an influential figure in the history of the genre.
Some tales from the Aulnoy’s collection:

⭐Finette Cendron (a similar tale to Cinderella)
⭐Graciosa and Percinet (a similar tale to Snow White)
⭐The White Cat

Even if we don't have her accurate birth date, white cat seemed very ashlesha to me 🧐

* Initially I was expecting to see more pisces but sagittarius & scorpio influence outnumbered the rest
Now that I think about it most fairy tales features the protagonist in a distressed situation. Lost in a jungle or chaotic place ; no one else to depend on but themselves (reference to 8H/scorpio) also explains the occult references in fairy tales.
eventually coming out of that situation through their own bravery, honesty & hardwork to find "happily ever after" (reference to 9H/ saggitarius) often helped by devine intervention (Jupiter)
Leo & Pisces influence with the element of independence & adventure. Leo is where we begin our "soul searching" (sun=soul). We are on our own with just our inner light to guide us.
Pisces being final stage we have completed our worldy journey & have gathered everything needed to start a other worldly / magical journey (12H / Pisces) full of adventure & uncertainity. Explains the imagination driven nature of fairy tales.

More from Writing

I want to talk about how western editors and readers often mistake protags written by BIPOC as "inactive protagonists." It's too common an issue that's happened to every BIPOC author I know.


Often, our protags are just trying to survive overwhelming odds. Survival is an active choice, you know. Survival is a story. Choosing to be strong in the face of the world ending, even if you can't blast a wall down to do it, is a choice.

It's how we live these days.

Western editors, readers, and writers are too married to the three-act structure, to the type of storytelling that is driven by conflict, to that go-getter individualism. Please read more widely out of your comfort zone. A lot of great non-western stories do not hinge on these.

Sometimes I wonder if you're all so hopped up on the conflict-driven story because that's exactly how your colonizer ancestors dealt with people different from them. Oops, I said it, sorry not sorry. Yes, even this mindset has roots in colonialism, deal with it.

If you want examples of non-conflict-driven storytelling google the following: kishoutenketsu, johakyu, daisy chain storytelling/wheel spoke storytelling. There was another one whose name I forgot but I will tweet it when I recall it.

The chorus of this song uses the shlokas taken from Sundarkand of Ramayana.

Like company moats, your personal moat should be a competitive advantage that is not only durable—it should also compound over time.

After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.

5/ Similarly, in careers, what used to be (more) scarce were things like ideas, money, and exclusive relationships.

In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.
