She wants to believe that anything is possible, which is why she seems so extremely idealistic. Snow needs to believe in possibility in order to thrive, and has stated as much.

Ne is concerned with possibilities rather than immediate reality. Snow White’s nearly unfailing optimism is a result of healthy Ne in combination with Fi idealism. “The minute I stop believing in the possibility that things will get better is the minute I know they won’t.” However, she later regrets her actions, recognizing that she failed her daughter in this instance. Of course, we later see Snow fail in this regard when Emma is seeking to get rid of her magic completely, and Snow goes along with it, mostly out of fear. She doesn’t try to get Red to reject the wolf half, but rather accept it as a part of who she is. When they are on the run, Red says that Snow White is the only person who thinks it is okay for her to be both a human and a wolf. The prime example of this shows up in her backstory with Red. Lastly, Snow tries to encourage people to be who they are, and stay true to themselves. Charming, recognizing what’s going on, tries to encourage Snow White to be patient and give Emma time. Essentially, she attempts to push Emma before she’s ready. Snow White then directly states that what they’re doing could wait, but she could not. However, Emma feels overwhelmed and tries to avoid it. When the curse is finally broken and she realizes that Emma is her daughter, she deeply desires to speak to her and get to know her. Snow is more focused in on her emotions than the emotions of others, which is typical for Fi users rather than Fe. However, she lets her live in spite of it. Of course, this also demonstrates her kind and forgiving nature, considering all the Evil Queen has done by this point. For instance, when they have captured the Evil Queen in the Enchanted Forest and are intending to execute her, Snow steps in and stops it from happening at the last moment, in spite of the obvious dismay from others. She readily shares those ideals with others and lives by them no matter what others say. Snow White is guided by her ideals and by love, which implies the Fi mantra of “follow your heart.” She see belief itself as extremely powerful, and uses her beliefs to drive her forward and keep her from giving up. “Believing in even the possibility of a happy ending is a powerful thing, but living with that kind of belief… That’s the most powerful thing of all. “She wanted revenge more than she wanted love, and I can’t imagine living that way.
