Random Building Thoughts - 2023-01-07

 

 

-------------- SPOT THE ODDITIES! --------------

Can you identify at least 6 Masonic Oddities?*

-------------- SHINE! --------------

It doesn't take much
to Shine a Light in the Darkness;
Unless you're a Candle
and you're Facing a Big Blowhard.

-------------- INSIGHT --------------

Does your Lodge face the same Problems repeatedly?
Are the same provided solutions truly ineffective?
Do the incoming officers re-invent the wheel
or follow the counsel of Brothers who didn't effectively deal with them before?
Do you Think it's time to Think Differently about Thinking Differently?

Do you truly believe that what we face in society is any different?

-------------- CHOOSE WISELY! --------------

 

 

-------------- LEGACY --------------

 

 Worth Viewing!

-------------- WOMB --------------

"Mythology
is the womb of mankind's initiation
to life and death."

-- Joseph Campbell,
The Flight of the Wild Gander

 

And the Freemasonic Lodge

 is where men are supposed

 to be birthed!

 (when they do the Work!)

Did you think that the Circumpunct 

wasn't a symbol for the Womb?

 -------------- WELL? --------------

How Are You Progressing?

-------------- SHADOWED HEARTS --------------

The Shadows Men Create Within Their Hearts...
... Prevent Them From Seeing the Light They Seek.

-------------- WARNING --------------

A Cowan is not a Pretender. 

That is a myth created by unknowing Freemasons.
A Cowan is a "Dry Dyker".
Dry Dykers are Masons who Build without any Cement,
especially of their own making.
Cement is very important to Freemasons,
for it Unifies the Building into One Common Mass.
Cowans are not interested in Unification.
Freemasons are told to not allow them in their Lodges
because Cowen's Buildings are without Cement;
they do not Build to Unify. 

If you are a Masterful Mason,
you now know something about the Tyler's job
that he doesn't.
You also now know that he most likely didn't know
who he was allowing into your Lodge.

-------------- THINKING --------------
