Welcome to Volume six of the Rose+Croix Journal!

We thank all of the readers of our past issues, and we look forward to the continuing dialogue of worldwide scholars and students in this year’s edition. This year, we have launched a new series in the Currents section: We offer selections from the engaging Mindquest articles from the Rosicrucian Digest of past decades, together with modern commentary. We invite readers to send in comments about this article during the year for inclusion.
The Rose+Croix Journal is an international, transdisciplinary, peer-reviewed online journal that focuses on topics that relate to the sciences, history, the arts, mysticism, and spirituality, especially transdisciplinary topics that traverse and lie beyond the limits of different fields of study.   

This issue features the following papers:

• “Changing the Exchange” by Diane Dean-Epps 
• “La synchronicité : Une cartographie de la coïncidence” by  Pierre Grégoire
• “The Relationship between God and People in Shona Traditional Religion”  by  Takawira Kazembe
• “Tabula Smaragdina Hermetis: Die Weisheit und Aufgabe der Rosenkreuzer” by Zoran Perowanowitsch
• “Chromoacoustics: The Science of Sound and Color“ by John S. Sultzbaugh and in the Currents Section:
• “Magnetic Energy of the Brain” by Michael Bukay, M.S. and George F. Buletza, Ph.D., with modern commentary 

The Journal encourages scholarly dialogue through its Currents section, and invites readers to submit thoughtful commentary on topics raised in the issue throughout the year, via the email address available in that section.

These papers and reviews successfully explore our subject areas and transdisciplinary topics and expand our understanding of the natural laws around us. The abstracts for each of the papers are published in English, French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish. The papers themselves are published in the author's original language. Also included on the Journal’s website are tools for dissertation searches, research links, archival documents of the Rosicrucian Order, AMORC and information on how to submit a paper. The submission deadline for the next issue of the Rose+Croix Journal is December 15, 2009, however, authors are encouraged to submit their papers for the Peer-Review process as soon as they are ready. Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to this issue.

Sincerely, 

Christian Bernard
