Goodmorning all (at least, here it is morning). I have a short question for you.
I am working on a tattoo design which gets 'a Masonic touch'. It involves a nine pointed star formed out of three triangles. The symbol has 'non-Masonic' significance to me and it is a reference to a certain person (it is part of the person's ex libris which seems Masonic), but I also intend to use it in the general way of a flaming star. I wonder if in a Masonic context, this star does not happen to refer to a certain Rite or degree that I might never reach, or if the star indeed also has a more general context.
Please don't tell me anything I need not to know as an EA. I already suspect that the ex libris refers to a degree in the AASR, but I need not know the details. I am only curious if using the star would automatically be more than a vaguely meant reference to FM (I don't want it to be obvious), apparently claiming some degree that I have not reached.
