I would recommend that you not sign your name on any membership group that is exclusively into spirituality subjects. Attend them objectively and independently if you are into their subject, but stay independent. Then you can be objective and not pressured into carrying the popular opinion on anything the group says. I joined a belief system group once and I regretted it. I would not join the Rosicussions myself personally. They are not objective and they charge for classes. Selling a supernatural subject to the public goes against my grain.

It's only worthwhile if it is worthwhile to you.
Personally I feel that alot of people join organizations like that because they enjoy the air of exclusivity and mystery that it involves. That doesn't mean it's a bad reason - we all take pleasure in things / ideas for our own reasons.
If it interests you and you believe you would benefit from it and perhaps be able to be a valuable addition to their membership, then you should do it!
But if I was offering advice - I would say that if you do join, you should plan to seriously be involved and not just use it as a badge of belonging to something that makes YOU more interesting. Being involved for the right reasons would be a good start - so check your motives first and if you feel that they are good - go for it!
All the best.

I would advise that you study their doctrine, as well as that of other religions before you make your decision. I have explored several different religions, or so called religions, and have not sensed complete truth in any of them so far. I am still seeking, and currently looking to the Universe for answers, as well as writings and recomendations of others. When you feel comfortable, and sense truth in a group, there may be your home, whether it is a religion or a non religion.
Seek answers from many sources, and commit to nothing until you have gained the wisdom to know truth within yourself.

You can trace them back to Egypt. I talked to a guy who knew some rosicrucians and it sounds like they've got some pretty spooky spiritual wisdom.
