This week, we get a call to action from Darin A. Lahners...Do you have what it takes to write for the Midnight Freemasons? Then, WB:.

What are its connections to the Norse gods, Sumeria, and what can we learn from a theosophic POV?

This week-- a quick review of Masonic Con Kansas, 2022. We'll hear about some of the highlights. Then I step aside and let WB:. Patrick Dey take center stage for an all-new Masonic MythBusters. Many esoteric Masons worldwide have cited Rudolph Steiner’s alternate Rosicrucian Hiramic legend. Some have taken it to heart, but where did Steiner get the ideas contained within his Rosicrucian Hiramic legend? This magical story of Hiram, who jumps into the fire, meets Tu-Ball Cain and is gifted the secrets of the ages. A tale of love, deceit, and even—murder. Is it to be taken all for true? Bro.

This week, we ask the critical question, where did the magic go? That occult magick somehow permeates all Masonic ritual, and how can we get it back? Then, in all new Masonic Myth Busters, Brother Patrick Dey tackles one of the most challenging questions ever related to the fraternity. Albert Pike, racism and slavery. In this unapologetic, candid look at just the facts, Bro Dey takes a look at the numerous writings of Albert Pike. He determines precisely where the man and Masonic Titan stand. There is no escaping these conclusions. Finally, we'll wrap it up with an excellent piece from Bro. Randy Sanders. Do you love Masonic Education but hate all that esoteric stuff or vice versa? Are you just a hard esotericist and can't take the rest? Randy Sanders has some great ideas on how to approach Masonic symbolism properly--and we do it gently. All this and more. Stay tuned.

This week we’re talking about the Masonic Philosophy of George Washington. In previous episodes, we've explored George Washington's religion and specific notions of the founding fathers. The two-part series presented this week will dive even deeper. Then we'll read a 25-year-old article published in the Washington Post about Washington D.C.’s Map. From Satan to the Sphinx--the Masonic mysteries of DC. In this article, the author traces the various claims of notable and influential Americans to crackpots and more when referring to the multiple claims of occult and Masonic designs within the city of Washington D.C., our nation’s capital. Finally, we'll wrap it up with a discussion on beginning new spiritual paths and manifestations and what that has in store for us.
