The Order of the Rose Cross.

2. They are clandestine, esoteric & thought to posses magical, almost mystical powers. Who are they really? What do we know about them, their methods, rituals & membership? Let’s take a deep dive into the Order.

3. Following the French & American Revolutions, the execution of Louis XVI & Marie-Antoinette, & the Declaration of Independence by the 13 Colonies, people began to seek knowledge outside established authority.

4. Described as a blend of Egyptian, Brahmanic, Persian, Pythagorean & Arab, Rosicrucians are thought to attempt to make contact with Genie & the spirits of the Ancient Egyptian underworld.

5. Their origins is traced to the Mystery School ‘Per-Ankh’ (House of Life) established in Egypt during the reign of Pharaoh Thutmose III & Hatshepsut around 1500 BCE.

Both Pharaohs united Egypt’s different cults into a single state priesthood.

6. The Rosicrucians would claim their most famous members were Akhenaten & his wife, Nefertiti.

7. Their founding motto “Non Omnis Moriari,” translates into — “I shall not wholly die,” a quote from the Roman Poet Horace, is believed to be from members who fled Egypt into Ancient Greece & Ancient Rome, where they kept the Order alive.

8. Walt Disney & a couple of railroad billionaires & famous actors of the 20th century, were alleged member.

Some of the famous Rosicrucians:

9. Freemasonry activities in Scotland in the 1700s, as well as many satanic, witchcraft, & demonology cults of the Victorian age were inspired by The Rosae Crucis. The battle between science, religion & esotericism would give rise to the Rosicrucians.

10. The Order of the Rose Cross arose in Europe in the 17th Century. Unlike their clandestine peer, the Illuminati, Rosicrucians concern themselves with spiritism & seeking higher power through the knowledge of the “esoteric.”

11. They were thought to posses the potential to set people on their path to salvation. They sort the means through which immortality could be achieved.

12. The book “Fama Fraternitatis,” discovered in 1614 says the body of their putative founder, Christian Rosenkreuz, was found in intact by the members of order.

The legend claim that before his passing, Rosenkreuz was privy to many of the secrets of the ancient world.

13. But Historians argue that Christian Rosenkreuz never existed. He may have been invented to embody the ideas & the goals of the Rosicrucians.

After the wave of Revolutions, people needed a motivation to join, so the story had to be invented.

14. The Rosicrucians wanted to free society from the confines of its narrow order. So they began to study the Bible, combining it with Christian mysticism, Christian gnosticism, Egyptian hermeticism, the Jewish Kabbalah & alchemy.

15. The Jewish Kabbalah & medieval religiosity features predominantly in their rituals.

People were questioning the religious view of the world, & science offered the explanation through alchemy. This presented a perfected breeding ground for a secret society to thrive.

16. Alchemists believe the world as we know it, with all its knowledge & secrets, must be persevered & carried into the new world order via a secret society.

They believe there was a fifth state of matter, a quintessence, a Philosopher’s Stone.

17. Cambridge & Yale was the breeding ground for knowledge seekers in the 17th century & many came to seek it.

Sir Isaac Newton the Alchemist, led a double life. He engaged in research during the day, at nights? he turned alchemy, hoping to find that elusive Philosopher’s Stone.

18. A member of the Prestigious Mecca of scientific research, the ‘Royal Society’ in the heart of London, Sir Isaac Newton would have been in contact with the Rosicrucians, who were founding members of the Royal Society.

19. Newton saw the world as a puzzle God left mankind to solve. Whether he was a member of the Secret Order of the Rose Cross, the Rosicrucians, is a matter of controversy, till this day.

20. Ancient Order of Rosicrucians still reside in Vienna today, but much of it has changed since the days of Sir Isaac Newton.

Emperor Joseph II, the ruler of the Habsburg Monarchy & brother of Marie-Antoinette met with the inner circle of the (AMORC), for meditations.

21. In October 1994, over 70 members of the Solar Temple in Canada & Switzerland who were esoteric sects & adherents of Rosicrucians ideas, committed mass suicide.

A suicide note read; “we shall return, because the Rosy Cross is immortal.”

22. (AMORC), Rosicrucians, Rosae Crucis, Order of the Rose Cross, by its very nature & existence is established not to rule nations, but to control it. They have been part of human civilizations, surrounded by a wall of silence which give rise to its very name, a Secret Society.
