"The psychological rule says that when an inner situation is not made conscious, it happens outside, as fate. That is to say, when the individual remains undivided and does not become conscious of his inner opposite, the world must [unavoidably] act out the conflict and be torn into opposing halves. - So, whatever is not conscious will be experienced as fate." - Carl Jung
"The unconscious will control your life as if you are just the passenger to your fate, as opposed to a Conscious Captain steering You to Your Destiny."-Serena Jade
Jim and five-thousand other passengers and crew are traveling to a new planet. Their one hundred and twenty-year journey is spent asleep in a hibernation pod. After thirty years floating in space, a malfunction of the spacecraft opens Jim's pod ninety years early. After one year alone with just an android as his only friend, Jim wakes up Aurora.
Aurora is a writer from New York and wants to tell a unique story of her travels to the new planet and back. When Aurora finds out Jim deliberately woke her up, she feels betrayed. But in the end, if she did not wake up early, Aurora would not be able to write her story. Then her fellow passengers would not know about her experiences with Jim, while they were sleeping.
I see Passengers as a metaphor for waking up to our immortal nature. It is very difficult to relate to someone at the deepest level, while they're still asleep and you are awake!
Chris woke me up early, but that is my story, Charismatic Connection!
