Editor’s Note: Tis essay on e isory o e Scotis Rie Degrees in e Norern

Masonic Jurisdicion is ousanding. We are graeul o Grand Commander Jon Wm.

McNaugon, 33°, or permiting our Sociey members o ave access o is imporan inormaion; us enabling ose wo are ouside e Norern Jurisdicion o beter

undersand ow our norern Broers ave perceived e eacings o e Rie and is

role in carrying ou e Rie’s mission o enricing e pilosopy o e Symbolic Lodge.

Like ose o e Moer Supreme Council, e Degrees o e Norern Masonic

Jurisdicion can be raced o Sepen Morin and e riuals o e ORS wic e ranserred o Nor America roug New Orleans as early as 1763.

Te Jurisdicion names as is riual pariarc, Henry Andrew Francken, a Duc Mason

wo was depuized by Morin o coner e ig degrees rougou e world. Francken

raveled o New York in 1767 and began conerring degrees and ranscribing manuscrip

copies o Morin’s riuals. In 1783, e organized is work ino a 300-page manuscrip orm

wic became e ounding basis o e Norern Jurisdicion work.

Te correspondence beween e Nor and Sou ollows a line o depuized auor-

iy, saring wi Morin o Francken. Francken, in urn, depuized Moses Micael Hayes

in Piladelpia; wo depuized Barend Moses Spizer in Carleson; wo depuized

Jon Micell an Inspecor over e ORS . On May 24, 1801, Mic-

ell depuized e Reverend Frederick Dalco, and wo weeks laer e wo o em cre-

aed e Supreme Council o e 33rd Degree or e Unied Saes o America. Tus, e Moer Supreme Council o e world was ormed.

Te C1786 allowed or one Supreme Council in eac naion and wo

in e Unied Saes. In 1813, Emanuel De La Mota, Carleson, elevaed J. J. J. Gourgas

and Sampson Simson o e 33°. A ew mons laer, e Supreme Council o e Nor-

ern Masonic Jurisdicion o e Unied Saes was esablised. Te sysem o Ineable

and Sublime Degrees, largely originaing om Morin and praciced in bo e Nor

and e Sou, was nally denoed e Scotis Rie in 1804. Tus, ere is litle quesion-

ing e American Scotis Rie eld ile o a similar riual beginning. And bo wereinspired by e Frenc g.

Te Morgan Aair and resuling ani-Masonic movemen creaed avoc in e progress

o Masonry a any level unil 1842, wen e Supreme Council began rebuilding e ina-

srucure o e iger Degrees. Tis is were Alber Pike comes in.Wi e pos-Morgan revival era, ocers in bo jurisdicions atemped riual revi-

sions, bu Pike proved o be unmaced among is peers as bo a riual wrier and

eacer o comparaive religion, myology and pilosopy. Grand Commander Mackey

loaned e Souern Jurisdicion’s riual collecion o Pike, wo ranscribed and bound

em ino a large volume. Mackey sen a copy o is collecion o e ocers o e

Supreme Council o e Norern Masonic Jurisdicion.

In 1857, Pike compleed is rs revision o e 4°–32°, and is work (e Mgm

O ) ormed e basis or wa would ulimaely become e ocial work o e Sco-is Rie in many Supreme Councils across e world. Tere is no quesion e Norern

Masonic Jurisdicion adoped a good porion o e Pike work, and e same was prac-

iced om 1857 unil well ino e 20 cenury. One needs only o review e Norern

Jurisdicion Supreme Council ocer Carles McClanacan’s work publised in 1914 o

see a eavy correspondence beween e work o e wo American jurisdicions during

is period.

No muc canged unil e 1950s, wen e Norern Jurisdicion made a sun-

ning, ye reasoned, policy cange in ow i reviewed e mission o e Scotis Rie.

Tis cange is orougly ariculaed in e essay presened in is volume o Hm

and won’ be expanded upon ere, bu e essence is a, in our own ime, e Nor-

ern Masonic Jurisdicion as soug o make e riuals o e Rie as dynamic as e

canging sociey in wic we live. Raer an using e radiional myos and emes

o e Scotis Rie as promulgaed by Pike’s syle and inellec, e NMJ as cosen o

employ modern culural setings and emes o eac is lessons. I permis is members

o acively paricipae in e evoluion o is riual orm. Te Souern Jurisdicion, on

e oer and, as eld rue o e orm and subsance o e Rie’s original European

emes and Pike’s exraordinary embellismen, wi an inended applicaion o mean-ing across all imes and culures.

Te resul as been a clear demarcaion in e orm and subsance o Scotis Rie

eacing beween e wo jurisdicions. Te Norern Jurisdicion perceives a Masonic

riual developmen as long been a process o creaive innovaion, beginning wi e

invenion o e rigradal degree sysem and e inroducion o e Hiram legend in

e craf Lodge. I reminds is aderens o e sor and simple ceremonial orms o

Masonry’s speculaive beginnings, and races e expansion and complexiy o is riual

language ino dramaized allegories wic ound eir way ino so many ries and ordersroug e 18 and 19 cenuries.

Wile e NMJ acknowledges e pilosopical oundaion and jusicaion o e

Rie’s eacings, i earnesly insiss a e moral lessons o be impared mus ave

meaning and inspiraion o ose o wom ey are communicaed. And in a socieya reads less, knows less, and as precious litle paience or old ideas and arcane

secres, a conemporary and reasoned communicaion o moral lessons seems a good

mac or our own ime.

Te Souern Jurisdicion, on e oer and, as cosen o old o e view a

e radiions o Masonry are e emes and ideas emselves; a e oug and

sudy wic goes ino e acquisiion o knowledge is e essence o e work. Pike saw

Masonry as someing imposing and majesic, myserious and grand. He likened i o

e pyramids, peraps lonely on e landscape, ye lled wi idden and undiscoveredcambers wic could be uneared only by e enligened individuals o eac genera-

ion. Like e Spinx al-buried in e sand, e Scotis Rie’s symbolism was is soul.

And symbols, o be undersood, mus be inerpreed by eac symbol user around is per-

sonal insig and experience. Symbol inerpreaion and meaning is individual work.

Tus, e approac o e NMJ is o inroduce e moraliy and eics o Freema-

sonry o e popular culure o men wi e aim a is lessons will improve e indi-

vidual and is sociey. I is exoeric in is naure. For e SJ, e meod is more inwardly

ocused on e psycology o being. I advances e noion a a man mus discover wo

e is by rs going deep wiin imsel o nd e secres o is lie and purpose. Troug

is process o sel discovery, e becomes ransormed as an enligened individual wo

en possesses e skills o ransorm oers. I is a discipline o learning direced only a

a cosen ew—e E o eac generaion. Is eacings are esoeric in is naure.

O course, i can well be argued a bo approaces are progressive in eir own

way and old muc woriness and meri or e consideraion o good and ougul

men. Neier approac is wrong. Indeed, i would be ard o prove one is beter an e

oer. Bo work wen e individual makes a conscious eor o inegrae e Rie’s les-

sons ino is own inellec, ear and soul. o e exen is appens, e Scotis Rieimproves e man and e sociey in wic e lives.

I is imporan o remember a, in e Scotis Rie, as in Masonry, e searc is or

Lig. Te searc or Lig is always a symbol o educaion, knowledge, and enligen-

men. Tere is muc o all ree o be arvesed om e riuals o e Rie in bo e

Norern and Souern Jurisdicions. Te botom line or bo is a e proo o any

meod o ransmiting knowledge is in e power o is communicaion.
