Revisiting the Horned God (and Goddess?)

A London Fortean Society event.

London is a magnet for Horned Goddesses: from the patroness of London, Elen of the Ways, who is said to have appeared to Chesca Potter in St Pancras Old Church, to the theorised deities of Flinders Petrie and Harold Peake, to the Gallo-Roman figurine of a seated antlered woman held in the British Museum (room 69). 
Dr Anna Milon discusses why Horned Goddesses have held such fascination for us over the past century, and what they have to do with their better-known counterpart, the Horned God. And speaking of the British Museum figurine, who is she? Our speaker holds that she is the goddess Rosmerta, usually a consort of Mercury, but this time associated with Cernunnos.

Date: Tuesday 26 August 2025
Time: 8pm (Doors 7.30)
Venue: The Bell, 50 Middlesex Street E1 7EX

Human Metamorphosis and the Singularity Archetype – Friday, January 23, 2026 – Jonathan Zap

A Boulder Society For Scientific Exploration event.

LOCATION: Avalon, 6185 Arapahoe Rd., Boulder, Colorado 80303
TIME: Noon – 2:30 pm (doors open at 11:30 am)
COST: $20 cash/check at door
Bring a “brown bag lunch” if you like; drinks are provided.

The Singularity Archetype defines and mediates two parallel event horizons—death and the evolutionary metamorphosis of homo Sapiens. The life cycle of an individual parallels the life cycle of the species, with both culminating in a profoundly transformative event.

The individual event horizon of death may be viewed as emergency by the ego, while the “Self” (defined by Jung as the totality of all elements of the psyche) views it as an emergence. 
Similarly, the species’ evolutionary event horizon is viewed as an apocalyptic extinction-level event by the ego, while the Self views it as a transcendent quantum evolutionary jump.

Manifestations of the Singularity Archetype include a number of classic aspects:

A rupture of the plane of egoic, linear-time-based consciousness and emergence into consciousness and communication that transcends linear time and egoic individuality.

Telepathic consciousness and communication in which linguistic intent may be expressed visually and in richer modalities than predominantly word-based consciousness and communication. Episodic emergence scales up to a  telepathic consciousness and communication networked amongst a small group or collectives of various magnitudes, while individuality is, to varying extents, conserved.

The Singularity Archetype may be experienced via NDEs, OBEs, UFO/abduction/close encounter experiences, kundalini, and psychotropic episodes. The Singularity Archetype represents a critical point where transformation, in ways impossible to fully anticipate, will massively shift human consciousness and, therefore, the nature of “reality.”
