    A deep dive into Ridley Scott's space horror masterpiece with Jungian and archetypal psychologist Glen Slater. We dig into the complex archetypal ideas underlying what is a pretty straightforward horror story: the history and role of the monster in fiction, the evolution of the alien in our culture, Jung's theory about UFOs, the devouring mother, AI and the soul, Trump as monster, and lots more!


    Glen studied psychology and comparative religion at The University of Sydney before coming to the United States in 1992 for doctoral work in clinical psychology. He has been teaching at Pacifica for over twenty years and is currently the Associate Chair of the Jungian and Archetypal Studies specialization. He also teaches in the Mythological Studies program.

    We have a lively discussion around Jung's cautions (and contradictions) against the use of psychedelics, the limitations of Jungian and depth psychology when confronted with psychedelic experiences of other realms and non-human beings, and the constant need to keep re-visioning depth psychology.

  • SS01 Soul Studies: Rollo May, The Courage to Create (1975)
    2022/02/02

    Soul Studies is a new series of podcasts where I read excerpts from books that are currently inspiring me. In this episode I read from the first chapter of Rollo May’s 1975 book “The Courage to Create”. It struck me as a book that feels incredibly relevant to our cultural moment, particularly on the topics of despair, cultural divides and ideological fanaticism.

    “People who claim to be absolutely convinced that their stand is the only right one are dangerous. Such conviction is the essence not only of dogmatism, but of its more destructive cousin, fanaticism. It blocks off the user from learning new truth, and it is a dead giveaway of unconscious doubt. The person then has to double his or her protests in order to quiet not only the opposition but his or her own unconscious doubts as well.”

    Rollo May (1909-1994) taught at Harvard, Princeton, and Yale, and was Regents' Professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz. An influential psychologist, he was the best-selling author of Love and Will, as well as the author of The Courage to Create, Man's Search for Himself, The Meaning of Anxiety, and Psychology and the Human Dilemma.

    If you enjoyed this episode and want me to continue sharing work I find in the course of my Soul Studies, please let me know!
