The Horned One

Kernunnos, the Celtic Father of Animals with his companion Stag and Boar, is an archetype of mature masculine energy in balance with the natural world. Taken from the Gundestrup cauldron, this image shows the forest god in his typical yogic pose of meditative entrancement with nature. Around his neck Kernunnos wears the torc, commemorating his sacred marriage as husbandman to Mother Earth; with his right hand he bestows upon viewers a torc of initiation. Held under control in his intuitive left hand is the ram-headed serpent connoting male sexual power and vitality. This rich calm image is ideal for modern males seeking to rebalance away from dominator conditioning.

Green/bronze colored resin.

Kernunnos/Gobniu 5"x7" statue

This tri-cephalic bust depicts the forest god of the Celts in his most potent form. For these earth-worshiping peoples of old Europe, the disembodied head symbolized fertility, prophecy, inspiration and rebirth, and triplism implied extreme power. Note the god's initiatory neck torc and stag antlers, which may be removed during the feminine phase of the pagan year. Without horns, this image can also be used to represent the Irish deity Gobniu-Luchta-Credne, the three gods of skill. Gaelic oral tradition names him the alchemical patron of smithcraft, poetry and sacred beer-brewing.
