Monsters & The Psychic Terrain {A Spooky Discussion with Candis Green}

This week on ⁠The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast⁠,  I am diving deep into the intersection of horror, monsters, and mental health in celebration of spooky season. I’m joined by special guest and fellow therapist Candis Green, host of the Mental Health is Horrifying podcast, who is an expert on horror and mental health.  We have a nerdy and enlightening conversation exploring how horror films and monsters are more than just entertainment—they are reflections of our psychic terrain, particularly the shadow.  Together, we discuss how horror helps us confront and integrate our repressed fears, the emotional release horror films provide, and how finding our "monster soulmate" can offer deeper insights into our shadow.  Candis and I also spend time talking about the emotional compensatory function of horror and its role in performing psychic balancing. We also walk listeners through a tarot based exercise in order to find our “monster soulmate.”  Tune in for a fascinating conversation about embracing the darkness within and using horror as a tool for self-exploration.
