Each Mason in a Lodge who has a role to play in the Ritual has their own symbol or sign. The two main supporting officers have two each, and the Master three.

The Master of the Lodge sits before the Tracing Boards, which contain the plan of work for the Lodge, a position dating back to the time of operative Masons, and the directions the Apprentices and Journeymen would be given from the architectural plans held by the Master Builder.

About a block from my house was a much neglected corner lot. One of the keystone buildings there is an old Mason's Lodge. I didn't really know much else about that corner until a neighbor pointed me at the GSU archive/collections. Apparently, it was also home to the first (?) Kroger in Atlanta in the 1950s.
It is in a sad state, but soon will have new life as it is a highly desirable piece of land. The developer is even preserving the core building as part of the development. I'll post a drone video of the ongoing development soon. #masons #kroger #atlanta #development

It's Weathervane Wednesday! Here is another amazing weathervane seen in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is on a very historic building (not Independence Hall). Do you know this weathervane with the Masonic symbol as a finial? I have seen several weathervanes with Masonic symbols in New England, too. #WeathervaneWednesday #Weathervanes #Philadelphia #Masons #History #RevWar https://nutfieldgenealogy.blogspot.com/2024/09/carpenters-hall-philadelphia-for.html
