The Stars We Think We See V40N4

About this episode

This episode discusses the connection between Astronomy and Geometry in Freemasonry, focusing on the Winding Stairs and Dewdrop Lectures.

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by WBro Elbert Bede, Editor Emeritus of the Oregon Freemason, and is brought to us by MW Bro Russ Charvonia, PGM – CA. Astronomy and Geometry are closely linked in the liberal arts and sciences of Freemasonry. The Winding Stairs lecture, and these days less so The Dewdrop Lecture are an important part of the Fellowcraft degree. Here we find an excellent discussion about the what and the why. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.
