Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (gebürtig Helena Petrovna von Hahn-Rottenstein; nach erster Verehelichung russisch Елена Петровна Блаватская, Jelena Petrowna Blawatskaja, engl. Transkription Yelena Petrovna Blavatskaya; * 31. Julijul. / 12. August 1831greg. in Jekaterinoslaw, Neurussland, Russisches Kaiserreich; † 8. Mai 1891 in London) war eine russlanddeutsche Okkultistin. Ihre Hauptwerke Isis Unveiled (1877, deutsch: Isis entschleiert) und The Secret Doctrine (1888, deutsch: Die Geheimlehre) trugen maßgeblich zur Begründung der modernen oder anglo-indischen Theosophie bei und erlangten einen bedeutenden Einfluss auf weite Bereiche der modernen Esoterik. 1875 gründete Blavatsky mit Henry Steel Olcott die Theosophische Gesellschaft.
