Some Deeper Aspects of Masonic Symbolism

Foundations of Freemasonry Series

By: Arthur Edward Waite

Narrated by: Michael Strader

Member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and co-creator of probably the most famous and most commonly used tarot deck, Arthur Edward Waite was also a prolific writer and prominent Freemason. Here he looks into the trio of Blue Lodge degrees and the initiatory arc of birth, life, and death associated with those degrees. He looks at the history of these types of initiations in the ancient world, as well as how they relate to the candidate, and asks the listener to consider if Freemasonry even has a place in this type of initiation cycle. He also discusses the Kabbalah, speculative masonry, and a variety of other topics.
