Daniel Mögling (pseudonym Teophilus Schweighardt Constantiens) is the alchemist who allegedly wrote the work Speculum Sophicum Rhodostauroticum ("The Mirror of the Wisdom of the Rosicrucians"), in 1618.
In the Speculum, he repeatedly refers to Thomas a Kempis's Imitatio Christi as a major source for Rosicrucian thought. Mögling allegedly did not believe in the actual existence of the Rosicrucian Brotherhood, but adhered to its theosophical and pansophist principles. The four engravings in the Speculum offer an ‘orbis pictus’ of the Rosicrucian movement and were to provide lasting inspiration for later Rosicrucian iconography.
