Prince/princess
The prince and princess signify the "potential of royalty; the power and
vigour of youthful royalty. The prince is associated with the
KING as the fertility of his people and land. Winning the hand of the
princess, in myth and legend, is to aspire to the superior or highest state,
a situation fraught with danger which can either kill the aspirant or raise
him to a higher and more noble state, as in psychic and spiritual aspirations
and quests" (Cooper, 134).
