Max Heindel

1865 – 1919

Max Heindel (23 July 1865 – 6 January 1919), born Carl Louis von Grasshoff in Aarhus, Denmark, was a Danish-American mystic, astrologer, and spiritual teacher who founded the Rosicrucian Fellowship in 1909–1911 at Oceanside, California. His foundational work The Rosicrucian Cosmo-Conception (1909) synthesised esoteric Christianity, occult cosmology, and Theosophical ideas into what he called the Western Wisdom Teachings. He also launched the Christian Esoteric magazine Rays from the Rose Cross in 1913.
