In CT we prefer the spouse to be present that the investigation, however, it is not required. Youngblood to answer your question, the amount of time it takes to be involved in Masonic activities is entirely up to you. Once you become a Master Mason you are entitled to all the rights light and...

Awesome Indeed! Very proactive of you I might add! Thank you for the light and way to the pour the cement!

There are plenty of posts on here that do explain the affiliations and there are also many books on the subject. A Brother on this forum gave me some good reading advice when I first joined the forums...I'll look back and find the post and pull the recommended reading and PM you

Welcome, Brother. Just remember, the journey doesn't end but it begins here. Congratulations!

I am sure you knew someone chime in the religion thing :001_cool:. We are taught that Masonry is NOT religion...so if you would please, I am interested in your thoughts on the subject.

Quite honestly, the only thing I have read about chamber of reflection is in the 33rd degree (invite only) of the Scottish Rite. Not sure how true or false it is, but that's what I read, and I don't even remember where. I wouldn't mind a spot to reflect and meditate though..I look forward to...

I am a newly raised MM having been raised on 06/23/2012 so I am not yet very familiar with the differences between the two appendant bodies. I do know some but not everything. What I do know, is that a 33rd degree Mason was present at my at home interview and gave me the advice of waiting a year...
