Safron is Core Faculty in the Pacifica Graduate Institute Jungian and Archetypal Studies program, teaching courses on mythology, symbolism, archetypal cosmology & astrology, and scholarly praxis. For many years she was Curator of the Joseph Campbell, James Hillman, and Marija Gimbutas manuscript collections at Opus Archives. Her writing and scholarly studies focus on Greek mythology, archetypal psychology, archetypal astrology, and goddess traditions. Safron is the author of The Kore Goddess: A Mythology & Psychology (2021), co-editor of Jung on Astrology (2017), and editor of Joseph Campbell’s Goddesses: Mysteries of the Feminine Divine (2013). Safron and I have a wonderful conversation that explores the archetypal significance of the Ancient Greek Kore figures, who are often depicted as young strong women. Safron describes the Kore as, “…the archetypal Virgin or Maiden, a youthful figure who is one-in-herself … associated with psychological integrity … to be grounded in one’s essential nature as an individual. As the figure most directly concerned with our connection to the interior rhythms of our being, contact with this archetype brings a sense of sovereignty and potency…it is the function of the Kore to safeguard us from losing ourselves to collective forces by turning us inward.” As you might imagine, this feminine archetype is relevant to both men and women, particularly in times like these where collective forces are constantly trying to get us to pick a side and go to battle for one ideology or another, and spend all our energy feeding the social media machine. The Kore invites us to turn away from the screen and look inward to find what is true and good for each of us.
