Fellow of the Craft - a Treatise on the Second Degree of Freemasonry


Book Description

Explored from the perspective of the little practiced Scottish Rite degrees, this work combines elaborate descriptions, interpretative exploration and links to parallel symbolic constructs to form an understanding of the meaning behind this second step of becoming a Freemason. Picking up from where its predecessor, the Apprentice, concluded the Fellow of the Craft takes the reader on a journey through the rich symbolism and allegory of what it means to become a Fellow.

Esoteric Handbook for the Fellowcraft Mason


Book Description

This book is aimed, primarily, at the Mason who has passed to the Second Degree, but it is also for those older Masons who have not delved into the depth of meaning in Masonic ceremonies.As Freemasonry is a system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols, this book takes a look at what those allegories and symbols are hinting at.This book delves into the layer of meaning in the ceremony of Passing, beyond the obvious moral lessons, and points the Mason who seeks light towards a more spiritual understanding of himself and the reason for his existence in this world, and an understanding of the true meaning of the hidden mysteries of Nature and Science.This is the second of three volumes, each aimed at one of the three Craft Degrees.
