Snow White Spread

On This Day

The Grimm Brothers’s tale Snow White and Rose Red features another character named Snow White who bears no relation to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

Snow White was released on this day in 1938. This German fairy tale of the girl pursued by a jealous queen, fed a poison apple, and kissed by a handsome prince earned a standing ovation from a glittering, star-studded crowd.

Summation of Spread

Snow White’s apple, a powerful symbol of temptation and a reference to the sensual fall of Adam and Eve, is found in the Lovers card.

The questions of this spread are inspired by the themes and symbols of this iconic fairy tale.
