[trailhead?]Ouroboros Society

I recently saw one of those text ads displayed above the inbox in gmail, which immediately caught my attention: "The Ouroboros Society - www.theouroborossociety.com - Are you one of us? Visit our website now to find out". The site itself has a questionnaire which determines whether or not you qualify for membership. If you score high enough it asks that you get in contact with them immediately, however there seems to be no way to contact them directly (there is a link for a facebook fan page, but that seems a bit public) On the main page it mentions printing out the flier in order to find out more about membership, but the flier just gives a brief history and says that you can find more information on membership by visiting the website. I cannot tell if this is a legitimate site, or there's something else going on here. Any speculations?

My guess is that this is a promotion for the novel "The Eternal Ones" by Kirsten Miller, due out later this year.

Those who are invited to join the Society quickly learn what it means to be one of the Eternal Ones.

Haven Moore can't control her visions of a past with a boy called Ethan, and a life in New York that ended in fiery tragedy. In our present, she designs beautiful dresses for her classmates with her best friend Beau. Dressmaking keeps her sane, since she lives with her widowed and heartbroken mother in her tyrannical grandmother's house in Snope City, a tiny town in Tennessee. Then an impossible group of coincidences conspire to force her to flee to New York, to discover who she is, and who she was.
In New York, Haven meets Iain Morrow and is swept into an epic love affair that feels both deeply fated and terribly dangerous. Iain is suspected of murdering a rock star and Haven wonders, could he have murdered her in a past life? She visits the Ouroboros Society and discovers a murky world of reincarnation that stretches across millennia. Haven must discover the secrets hidden in her past lives, and loves¸ before all is lost and the cycle begins again.

Anyway, moving on!
Has anyone emailed them over the questionnaire part?

I guess, I can give it a shot if anyone else hasn't.

ZERO: It's unlikely that you've lived before.

1-3: It's quite possible that you have lived before. Please meet with one of our advisors to determine whether you're eligible for entry level membership.

3-5: You are almost certain to have experienced previous existences. Our senior advisors can assess your talents and help you remember more.

6+: You are an Eternal One. Please contact us as soon as possible.


Well, I have to keep an eye on this until that option becomes available.

Well, I went to their Facebook page. There's comments there which have been left unanswered since April.

I'm not sure what the relevance of the link to the "New York Historical Society" is. Perhaps that's a clue?

It's the neighborhood with the coloration with the Historical Society.
There is obviously some pride in that neighborhood or they wouldn't have the Historical Society link, posted a photo of the park and mentioned it twice once in regards to the mansion and again under the photo where it states they are still operating from the Gramercy Neighborhood today.

There is also a Gramercy Neighborhood Association & Granercy Park Foundation and many more.

I think it is a beloved neighborhood but I am unable to find any attachment to this society IRL.

By George I got it, no society mansion it is The National Arts Club! I kept going back and forth with this building too!
Oh yeah!

Trying to locate...

Well, I recently started reading the book The Eternal Ones and it has made me realize...well, a lot. I went to the Ouroboros site and I answered the question, got over six, etc. but I cant find a way to contact them. Its so irritating and I feel like its just...fake? Has anyone found any clues to where you can contact them in any way?

Not what you think

The society exsists but its not what you think it is or where you think it is. I stumbled across this site and I was suprised at some of the things I read
