Abstract

This article’s focus is the universal organising principles underlying the energy transformation process in music and fairy tales. Taking into account relevant research in Jungian analytical psychology and music analysis, a comparative study of energy transformation processes in fairy tales and music is given. This yields an outline for a potential new meta-analysis of music introducing the symbolic and psychoid nature of music and its relevance for psychological development.
