Must Have!By R. FreemanAre you tired of overpriced second-rate reprints that look like they were run off on a photo-copier? Me too! This hardcover edition of The Arcane Schools has been completely reformatted, while maintaining a look and feel very similar to the original 1909 edition, right down to the blue cloth binding and gold spine stamp. I cannot recommend this work highly enough for all students of Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism, Theosophy, and the history and migration of the Western Mysteries in general. This book would be a value at twice the price! This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the original. Due to its age, it may contain imperfections such as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions that are true to the original work. From the PublisherKessinger Publishing reprints over 1,500 similar titles all available through .com.From the Back CoverIn this extensive work, John Yarker attempts to trace the history of Masonry and Masonic rites through history, proving its legitimacy through seniority and the power of tradition. Yarker establishes the roots of Masonry in a race he calls the Aryans, a catchall phrase to describe an unknown race of conquerors who developed the early human arts, such as stoneworking, metalworking, and agriculture. Yarker then explains how that civilization gave rise to societies of special knowledge, such at the mathematical and philosophical schools in ancient Greece. From these, he can trace symbolism to modern Freemasonry. Fascinating in its breadth, The Arcane Schools draws on seemingly every society and era to pull the history of humanity into a single narrative. Those interested the arcane and occult, as well as those with a newly sparked interest in symbology, will find Yarker's book a fascinating and informative read.About the AuthorJohn Yarker (17 April 1833 - 20 March 1913) was an English Freemason, author, and occultist. He was born in Swindale, Shap, Westmorland in the north of England. He moved with his parents to Lancashire and on to Manchester in 1849. he was descended form Reinhold Yarker de Laybourne who flourished in the mid seventeenth century. He was made a freemason at the age of 21 in the Lodge of Integrity, No. 189, Manchester, on the 25 October, 1854, becoming a Master Mason at the beginning of 1855. Seven years later, in 1862, he demitted (resigned) from Freemasonry. In 1872 Yarker established the Sovereign Sanctuary of the Ancient and Primitive Rite of Masonry for England and Ireland under the authority of a Patent issued by the American Grand Master of that organization, Harry Seymour. According to Gnostic Bishop Stephan A. Hoeller, Yarker also got involved with the Ordo Templi Orientis and is attributed as the link between this organization and regular Freemasonry. According to Hoeller, Yarker was bestowed with the authority to confer degrees of the Scottish Rite as well as the Rite of Memphis-Misraim.

  • National Geographic's Presentation Of: The
    NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC’S PRESENTATION OF: THE SECRETS OF FREEMASONRY Research From The Library of: Dr. Robin Loxley, D.D. Copyright 2006 INTRODUCTION It is obvious that NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC got a hold of information from other resources and decided to do a cable presentation on May 22, 2006, which narrates most of my website threads in short two hour special. It was humorous to see Masons being interviewed and trying to fool the public with flattering speech. I watched the National Geographic special entitled: THE SECRETS OF FREEMASONRY and I was humored to see some of what I’ve studied as coming out of the closet. My first response was: Where was National Geographic during the 1980s with this information? Anyways, it’s nice to know that they had an excellent presentation and I was impressed with how they went about explaining the layout of Washington D.C. I was laughing hysterically when a Mason was interviewed for his opinion about the PENTGRAM being laid out in a street design but incomplete. The Mason made a statement: “There is a line missing from the Pentagram so it’s not really a Pentagram. If it was a Pentagram, then why is there a line missing?” He downplays the street layout of the Pentagram with its bottom point touching the White House. The Mason was obviously IGNORANT of one detail that I caught right away as to why there was ONE LINE MISSING from the pentagram in the street layout. If you didn’t catch it, the right side of the pentagram star (Bottom right line) is missing from the street layout, thus it would prove that the pentagram wasn’t completed.

  • Chaos out of Order: the Rise and Fall of the Swedenborgian Rite
    Chaos Out of Order: The Rise and Fall of the Swedenborgian Rite BY BRO. R. A. GILBERT (AQC Vol 108 1995) Swedenborg: The Man and His Work One thing is certain: Swedenborg himself had nothing to do with it – neither with the late 18th century Rite that has come to bear his name, nor with its bizarre successor that is the subject of this paper. But in order to understand that Rite it is essential to know something of the man, of his work and of the religious movement that grew out of it. Emanuel Swedenborg was born at Stockholm in 1688, the son of Jasper Swedberg. at that time a Professor of theology at Uppsala university and later, from 1702, Bishop of Skara (The name was changed when the family was ennobled in 1719). From 1716 to 1747 Swedenborg was an Assessor in the Royal College of Mines of Sweden, but he was more than simply a metallurgist and mining engineer. By any standard Swedenborg was a polymath: fascinated equally by the natural world and by human invention he not wrote learned treatises on every aspect of the physical and natural sciences, and on currency and economics, but also designed mechanical devices as diverse as a fire-engine, machine-gun, flying-machine and submarine. But in 1744 there came a turning point in his life. He had for some years been attempting to demonstrate through his scientific studies that there was a spiritual underpinning of the material universe – an attempt that culminated in a spiritual crisis when he felt that ‘That there was a change of state in me into the heavenly kingdom, in an image’1[1].

  • "The Capstone" an Attempt to Identify The
    "The Capstone" An attempt to identify the 'Head of the Snake' Secret Societies Order of Hospitallers (link) The Knights Hospitaller, also known as the Order of Hospitallers or simply Hospitallers, were a group of men attached to a hospital in Jerusalem that was founded by Blessed Gerard around 1023 out of which two major Orders of Chivalry evolved, the Order of the Knights of St. Lazarus and the Order of the Knights of St. John, later to be known as the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. The Hospitallers arose around the work of an Amalfitan hospital located at the Muristan site in Jerusalem, founded around 1023 to provide care for poor, sick or injured pilgrims to the Holy Land. After the Western Christian conquest of Jerusalem in 1099 during the First Crusade, the organisation became a religious and military order under its own charter, and was charged with the care and defence of the Holy Land. Following the conquest of the Holy Land by Islamic forces, the Order operated from Rhodes, over which it was sovereign, and later from Malta where it administered a vassal state under the Spanish viceroy of Sicily. The Order was weakened by Napoleon's capture of Malta in 1798 and became dispersed throughout Europe. It regained strength during the early 19th century as it repurposed itself towards humanitarian and religious causes. The modern continuation of the mediaeval Order is the Roman Catholic Sovereign Military Order of Malta, headquartered in Rome; allied Protestant orders are headquartered in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden. The first master of the original Order of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem was Brother Gerard (whose origins remain a mystery).

  • The Masonic Career of A.E. Waite
    The Masonic Career of A.E. Waite BY BRO. R. A. GILBERT (AQC Vol 99 1986) INTRODUCTION In English Freemasonry the seal of a certain distinction attaches to the name of Arthur Edward Waite, while it has proved of such appeal in America that an important Grand Lodge has conferred upon him, causa honoris, one of its highest official positions. Among his many publications those on the mystical and symbolical aspects of the Secret Tradition in Christian Times occupy a place apart, being things unattempted otherwise in the records of research'. So Waite referred to himself in the prospectus for the revised edition of his book, The Secret Tradition in Freemasonry1[1], but it is doubtful if a single masonic scholar of his time - or since - could be found who would agree that this self- adulation was justified. During his lifetime Waite was castigated, and with justification, for his peculiarities of style, for his frequent errors of historical fact and for his cavalier attitude and contemptuous references to his contemporaries. All this must be admitted against him, but he was also a highly original thinker who broke completely new ground with his studies of what he termed the 'Secret Tradition', while, for the esoteric school of thought within Freemasonry, he has been the most pervasive and powerful influence of this century. As such, his writings deserve more careful and objective analysis than they have received to date, and it is the purpose of this paper to encourage such analysis by demonstrating, through a study of his masonic career, both Waite's originality and his continuing influence.

  • Robert Wentworth Little: a Duplicitous Freemason, Wordsmith and Mystic, Part II Bro
    Robert Wentworth Little: A Duplicitous Freemason, Wordsmith and Mystic, Part II Bro. Richard Gan, Susan Snell, and Bro. David Peabody Adversaries and Antagonism – Friend and Alliances Whilst Little undoubtedly attracted a considerable level of antipathy and personal criti- cism from Freemasons such as Charles Matier, John Yarker, and Kenneth Mackenzie, he was even more adept at forming alliances with influential friends such as John Hervey, Francis Burdett, Frederick Binckes and Lord Kenlis (the future Earl of Bective), and inspired a loyal following from a number of enthusiastic Masons including amongst others: William Hubbard, Henry Levander, George Kenning and Sigismund Rosenthal. Nearly one hundred and fifty years after the event it is perhaps difficult to -under stand why some of Little’s activities, particularly in respect of the RCC, SIRIA, and Misraim, have not been the subject of greater scrutiny or criticism. The fact is that they were criticized very soon after they first occurred, but for whatever reason these criti- cisms were not pursued to a conclusion and indeed were carried out on a singular order by order basis rather than across all three orders. The criticism was such that some was aimed personally at Little (Matier); some against the individual Order (Misraim); and some based on vested interest (Ancient and Accepted Rite – Colquhoun). Volume 131, 2018 1 Richard Gan, Susan Snell & David Peabody Charles Fitzgerald Matier (1840–1914) was a senior and prominent Freemason who played a major role in the orders beyond the Craft, becoming Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of Mark Master Masons in 1891 in succession to Frederick Binckes.1 He was a man who could not be described as either modest or self-effacing, one biographer going so far as to observe that ‘it is no duty of ours to parade our brother’s defects before our readers’;2 what can be said is that he was not without ambition and certainly a con- troversial character.3 Matier’s sphere of Masonic influence initially centred on Manchester and Edin- burgh, and ultimately London.

Regm'escaz‘ m Pace! We are obliged to the Universal !??/8877405074 for the following Memorial Article: In the death of Brother John Yarker, of Didsbury, Manchester, England, whom the Great Architect of the Universe called from labour in March last, Masonry has lost her greatest living authority on high grades, of all of which Brother Yarker was a Past Master, an ardent devotee, and on which he was a voluminous writer. We had the honour of Brother Yarker’s acquaintance nearly three decades ago, he having been a contributor to the Scottzlsk Free- mason when we edited that. journal. The following leading events in Brother Yarker’s Masonic career we quote from the Co-Mason, of London, England: It was in Manchester that Brother Yarker entered on his Masonic career and took up those studies which were to make him famous throughout the world in his after-life. He was initiated at the age of 21 in the Lodge of Integrity, No. 189, Manchester, on the 25th day of October, 1854, and after an interval of three months was duly Passed and Raised.

  • THE EQUINOX Vol. I No. 10
    This page is reserved for Official Pronouncements by the Chancellor of the A∴A∴] Persons wishing for information, assistance, further interpretation, etc., are requested to communicate with THE CHANCELLOR OF THE A∴A∴ c/o THE EQUINOX, 33 Avenue Studios, 76 Fulham Road South Kensingston, S.W. Telephone: 2632, KENSINGTON or to call at that address by appointment. A representative will be there to meet them. THE Chancellor of the A∴ A∴ wishes to warn readers of THE EQUINOX against accepting instructions in his name from an ex-Probationer, Captain J.F.C. Fuller, whose motto was “Per Ardua.” This person never advanced beyond the Degree of Probationer, never sent in a record, and has presumably neither performed practices nor obtained results. He has not, and never has had, authority to give instructions in the name of the A∴ A∴. THE Chancellor of the A∴ A∴ considers it desirable to make a brief statement of the financial position, as the time has now arrived to make an effort to spread the knowledge to the ends of the earth. The expenses of the propaganda are roughly estimated as follows— Maintenance of Temple, and service . £200 p.a. Publications . £200 p.a. Advertising, electrical expenses, etc. £200 p.a. Maintenance of an Hermitage where poor Brethren may make retirements . £200 p.a. £800 p.a. ii As in the past, the persons responsible for the movement will give the whole of their time and energy, as well as their worldy wealth, to the service of the A∴ A∴ Unfortunately, the sums at their disposal do not at present suffice for the contemplated advance, and the Chan- cellor consequently appeals for assistance to those who have found in the instructions of the A∴ A∴ a sure means to the end they sought.
