A Freemason

∴A PRIMER (ME AND FREEMASONRY)∴

∴My Personal Tumblr (Daysrunaway)∴

I am a 24 year old Freemason from Pennsylvania. I hold membership in two lodges, Columbia No. 91, Grand lodge of Pennsylvania & Madison No. 87, Grand Lodge of Connecticut.


My hope, for this page, is to educate those unfamiliar with Freemasonry, as well as satisfy the needs of those simply interested in the mysticism, tradition and aesthetics of Freemasonry (as well as its related Esoteric Orders).

Freemasonry is, in the simplest terms, a Fraternal Order. We are a combination of a Philosophic, Esoteric, Social and Charitable Order. We exist to make good men better and to better our communities. We better each other through our unique fraternal bonds, and better our communities through the charity we do. We are not a religion and we are strictly non political.

There is a room up there. It’s closed off to everyone due to fire-code reasons. It’s undecorated and empty. It’s once immaculate view of all of philadelphia is now blocked by City Hall. There is only one staircase leading to it. For that reason, nobody is allowed up. It used to be a lodge room. 
By the way, since I work there, this is a verifiable reason.

There’s supposed to be a Lodge room waaaay up in the tower that no one’s allowed into, for a variety of unverifiable reasons. I’d like to see if it’s really there.

A stunning image of the temple where I work (for our museum, giving tours, doing research, ect…), the Masonic Temple of Philadelphia (which is the headquarters of the Grand Lodge of Freemasonry for Pennsylvania).

All of the bodies, Lodge, Royal Arch, Cryptic Council & Scottish Rite, of which I’m a member also meet here.
