    Freemasonry and Hermeticism

    awesome! Awesome! Thanks for the recommendation. It will be hard to wait but it's for the best I'm sure, so I will.

    The Most Important Masonic Speech You Need to Hear.

    This I think would be the best idea. The start of my journey went something like this. A 2 time Past Worshipful Master(I knew he was at least a Past Worshipful due to his hat) came into my store, and I called him on his hat. He started going off, in a good way, about how great it was, was the...

    Who works in mysterious ways?

    That's right, the Grand Architect of the Universe! No sooner did I join this forum, that I met an older gentleman at my work (I see people from around the country/world) who was a Freemason, who's son is in Texas A&M! His son is also a Freemason, and just started the Scottish Rite. So if anyone...

    Good day to all.

    I admit I have yet to read much from P.F. Case but have heard much about him. He seems to study a more exoteric (or "French" from its place of origin, France) form for Tarot Reading then what I am used to, but I would never doubt his knowledge the helping hand he has played in keeping the Lost...

    An honest question for all.

    I do not mind at all! I, as most here I believe, think of my self as a good man. However I also wish to be a better man. I have seen most Freemasons as honest, independent, moral, upstanding members of their community. Those are the same foundations I wish for me and my family. Some of my...

    An honest question for all.

    yes Yes indeed they are one in the same. Mercurius Ter Maximus was his Roman name, Hermes Tristmegistus his Greek and Thoth his Ancient Egyptian.

    Freemasonry and Hermeticism

    Greetings all. My name is Brandon, soon to be an Entered Apprentice. What drew me Masonry is its links to my religion, a modern day incarnation of Hermeticism. I will spare most religious talk as this is not the place for it but I will point out what I see as interesting links. I will start...

    Masonic Passports

    oh Of course not! In fact you showed me something more about them yourself, that I was excited to learn. I plan on visiting as many lodges as I can in my life time and would love to convince our Grand Lodge to do a similar thing to the Mass. Grand Lodge.

    An honest question for all.

    Of Course I have no problem with that at all! The search for Light is the search for answers to life mysteries. Hermeticism is a philosophical religion dating from around the same time as Christianity, though it's roots are much older, going back to the Ancient Egyptian and Greek Mystery...

    Masonic Passports

    Something I found as interesting, are "Masonic Passports". With space for your Masonic history, and signatures for your lodge Sec'y, it also has pages for you to get signed by lodges you have visited. Not a substitute for a dues card but makes a great souvenir if you fill it. Just google...

    Thoughts of a former "Nayson"

    Ok So no thoughts on this?

    An honest question for all.

    Hello, I'm Brandon and I'm a Hermeticist. I wish to ask an honest question about Volume of Sacred Law. As a Hermeticist the 78 loose leaf pages of the Tarot, also called the "Book of Thoth" or "Emerald Tablets of Hermes" is my Holy Book. In fact my studies have proven to me that the Tarot...

    Good day to all.

    Hello all, I'm Brandon, and I'm awaiting my date for Entered Apprentice initiation. And oddly enough I live in the northeast.

    Lucifer and Satan

    I can add something to this but not much, most of this has been pretty well covered. The name of the statue of liberty is "Diana Lucifera" or Diana the light bringer. As far as Satan even that word merely means opponent, such as when Jesus tells Peter, "get thee behind me Satan" what he is...

    Survey of Alchemical Symbols in the Lodge of Perfection

    Being a Hermeticist, and soon an Entered Apprentice I can say the links to Freemasonry and Hermeticism are very common, in fact it was threw learning about my religion that I came to know what I do of Freemasonry. I am willing to bet that I will find more links as I go pass threw the degrees.

    Thoughts of a former "Nayson"

    Hello all, I'm Brandon, my partition has been accepted, and I am waiting for my initiation date here in Maine. As such I wanted to share my thoughts on a few things and how I have come to see the "light". I could be what you call a "Nayson"(love that term) in recovery. My knowledge of Masonry...

    Shucks.

    I just spent 2 hours writing a post about the links between Freemasonry and Hermeticism only to have it not post, and give me a notification I can't see. Shucks. If people are interested I will try and post it again. Let me know in the comments please.
