I see the name Rosenkreutz alternating with Rosencreutz. Which is it? heidimo 02:33, 13 Mar 2004 (UTC)

   They're interchangeable- just two differing anglicizations, both found in historical documents.

Not even different anglicizations but just 17th century spelling variants. (flaig@sanctacaris.net)

Rosy Cross

Is it worth noting that the rose and cross are symbolic of the female and male genitalia? Pmurray bigpond.com 04:53, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Sure it is, but should not be overconsidered either. All successful initiatory societies owe at least part of their appeal to the fact that their symbolism is open to a wide range of explanations -- especially if there are so many different representations as there are of the "rose croix", from a cross within a rose to five roses on a cross. Maybe someone could present a few examples? I have (from Golodowin's "Dictionary of Symbols"), but they are under the publisher's copyright. (flaig@sanctacaris.net)
