Se presenta como el aviso de un psicólogo que se declara incompetente en la física del objeto y competente en su recepción: «As a psychologist, I am not qualified to contribute anything useful to the question of the physical reality of UFOs» «Jung — Flying Saucers (1958/1959) · p. 16», y a la vez reclama jurisdicción para su disciplina «Jung — Flying Saucers (1958/1959) · p. 209». Se coloca en la posición de quien advierte, «as once before» «Jung — Flying Saucers (1958/1959) · p. 12» —la nota remite a su «Wotan» de 1936— y acepta el costo «Jung — Flying Saucers (1958/1959) · p. 13».

Su aportación al corpus no es la ufología sino el aparato alquímico corriendo sobre un objeto nuevo: el ovni con forma de gota se lee como *aqua permanens* «Jung — Flying Saucers (1958/1959) · p. 50», la nube negra de una novela de 1957 como *nigredo* de la *Aurora consurgens* «Jung — Flying Saucers (1958/1959) · p. 228», y las estrellas roja y blanca de los aviones de las dos superpotencias como el *servus rubeus* y la *femina Candida* «Jung — Flying Saucers (1958/1959) · p. 211».
