Worshipful Master Gary Mosmeyer - Editor John "Corky" Daut The November 2012 Issue . By The Lighthouse Beam Right Angles, Horizontals and Perpendiculars From Hiram's Lighthouse Newsletter It appears to me that there has been some confu- sion among Masons about the Lights in a Lodge, as relates to the Three Lesser Lights, The Three Great Lights, and The Three Lights, (of the lodge,) and also about the one light above the altar that is turned on when the Three Great Lights are displayed upon the Altar. I will attempt to shed some light on the questions about these lights as relates to a Lodge Room as well as to some of the other “Threes” we find in Freema- sonry. In Freemasonry, we are encouraged to tell our Brothers what we want, and that is Knowledge, in Freemasonry Light means Knowledge. So when we talk about the three Triads of lights that are in a Lodge the symbolism behind the lights is knowledge. The Three Lesser Lights and the Three Lights have often been confused, thinking that the Third Section of the Lecture of the First Degree stating that a Lodge has Three Lights which are situated in the East West and South refer to the Three Lesser Lights, which they do not. In the Webb-Preston work, which much of the ritual of the Grand Lodges of the United States is based it says; the Lights of the Lodge are three, situated in the East, West, and South. There is none in the North be- cause King Solomon’s Temple was situated so far north of the ecliptic that neither the Sun nor Moon at Me- ridian height could dart their rays into the north part of the building. -

The Legend of Hiram Abiff
The Legend Of Hiram Abiff by Jerry Marsengill Hiram Abiff, the widow's son, is the principal cheek and hand to back, and cried out: 'Help, O, character in the second section of the Master father,' as if they had said; 'O, Father of Heaven, Mason's degree. He has become the central help us now for our earthly father cannot.'" So figure in most rites and in most countries. Yet they laid down the dead body again and not compared to much of the Masonic ritual and knowing what to do, one, said: 'Here is yet Masonic tradition, Hiram is a newcomer. marrow in the bone;' and the second said: 'But a dry bone,' and the third said; 'It stinketh.' So Regardless of Dr. Mackey, who was quite they agreed to give it a name as is known to proficient in formulating and interpreting Freemasonry to this day." landmarks, the legend of Hiram is not a landmark of the craft. Mackey states that The first record we have of the Hiramic legend landmark 2 is the division of symbolic Masonry being introduced into Masonry occurs in 1730 into three degrees and that landmark 3 is the when Prichard published Masonry Dissected. Legend of the third degree. He refers to Hiram as Grand Master Hiram. Prichard also tells both the story of Noah and Unfortunately we know the date when the third the story of Hiram in this expose. The Hiramic degree was first conferred.

Hall PUBLISHER'S FOREWORD The steady demand and increasing popularity of this volume, of which eighteen thousand copies have been printed since it first appeared a few years ago, have brought the present revised and rearranged edition into being. The text can be read with profit by both new and old Mason, for within its pages lies an interpretation of Masonic symbolism which supplements the monitorial instruction usually given in the lodges. The leading Masonic scholars of all times have agreed that the symbols of the Fraternity are susceptible of the most profound interpretation and thus reveal to the truly initiated certain secrets concerning the spiritual realities of life. Freemasonry is therefore more than a mere social organization a few centuries old, and can be regarded as a perpetuation of the philosophical mysteries and initiations of the ancients. This is in keeping with the inner tradition of the Craft, a heritage from pre-Revival days. -
Old Tiler Talks
Old Tiler Talks Carl H. Claudy 1925 Originally published in 1925 By The Masonic Service Association Of the United States of America Converted to text by Bro. Carl Johnson Converted to PDF & eBook by Bro. Ron Blaisdell, PM January 28, 2001 AL 6001 FOREWORD (1949) "The Old Tiler first appeared in print in August, 1921 when the first of four hundred and fourteen "Old Tiler Talks" were printed in the Fellowship Forum, a fraternal newspaper published in Washington, D.C. In 1925 the publisher asked the author to select a few of the best of the talks and thirty-one were accordingly made into a little volume, copyrighted that year. The book, which sold for a dollar, ran into two editions of five thousand copies each. By the time they were all sold the Fellowship Forum ran head on into the depression and disappeared and with it the Old Tiler. His homely philosophy, sharp tongue and common sense, however, had made a place for him in the hearts of readers; demand for the book has never ceased, although it has lessened in the twenty-four years since the Old Tiler first spoke from between the covers. At long last the Old Tiler sits again before the door of his lodge, there to repeat the tales which made him liked so long ago, and, from the wealth of material of his hundreds of homilies, make thirty-nine new talks to the book, a total of seventy in all. These have been roughly classified under seven headings. To offer in defense of his fanciful classification the author has no other alibi than the weak statement that the Old Tiler is himself fancy! The portrait of the Old Tiler on the jacket is the loving work of Brother Frank A. -
Eye of Provide Eye of Providence Eye of Providence
Eye of Providence The Trinity represented in a Christian version of the Eye of Providence . The Eye of Providence (or the all-seeing eye of God) is a symbol showing an eye often surrounded by rays of light or a glory and usually enclosed by a triangle . It is sometimes interpreted as representing the eye of God watching over humankind (or divine providence ). In the modern era, the most notable depiction o f the eye is the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States , which appears on the United States one-dollar bill . Contents 1 Religious use 2 United States 3 Freemasonry 4 Other uses : 4.1 Coats of arms and seals 4.2 Currency 4.3 Other contexts Religious use Jacopo Pontormo painting year 1525, using the Eye of Providence in a triangle as a symbol of the Christian Trinity . Imagery of an all-seeing eye can be traced back to Egyptian mythology and the Eye of Horus . Buddhist texts like the Mahaparinibbana Sutta also refer to Buddha as the "Eye of the World" (although no imagery is used). It is frequently used to depict the image of God in Caodaism (the doctrines of an Indochinese religion, especially an amalgamation of features from Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, and Christianity .) In Medieval and Renaissance European iconography, the Eye (often with the addition of an enclosing triangle) was an explicit image of the C hristian Trinity . Seventeenth-century depictions of the Eye of Providence sometimes show it surrounded by clouds or sunbursts . In United States 1782, the Eye of Providence was adopted as part of the symbolism on the reverse side of the Great Seal of the United States . -

The Architecture of Joseph Michael Gandy (1771-1843) and Sir John Soane (1753-1837): An Exploration Into the Masonic and Occult Imagination of the Late Enlightenment Abstract In examining select works of English architects Joseph Michael Gandy and Sir John Soane, this dissertation is intended to bring to light several important parallels between architectural theory and freemasonry during the late Enlightenment. Both architects developed architectural theories regarding the universal origins of architecture in an attempt to establish order as well as transcend the emerging historicism of the early nineteenth century. There are strong parallels between Soane's use of architectural narrative and his discussion of architectural 'model' in relation to Gandy's understanding of 'trans-historical' architecture. The primary textual sources discussed in this thesis include Soane's Lectures on Architecture, delivered at the Royal Academy from 1809 to 1836, and Gandy's unpublished treatise entitled the Art, Philosophy, and Science of Architecture, circa 1826. -
