The Rosy Cross of Heredom: Exploring the Secret History of the Master Mason’s Ritual

The Master Mason’s ritual, central to modern Freemasonry, might not be the original version, but rather a substitute. This idea may seem surprising at first glance, but when examined in the historical context of the early 18th century, it opens up fascinating possibilities.
