@martesamsononli@UGLE_GrandLodge Other non UGLE masonic bodies and shooting up in numbers. I believe this be an acceptance and promotion of those other orders under their umbrella.
Great point and issue raised!
@martesamsononli@UGLE_GrandLodge@martesamsononli I fear that it won’t be addressed. There’s always the ‘recognised’ reason amongst others.
As a result of a lack of accepting this fact all lose out when some great people join .... and leave not finding what they hoped to, and is there!
The Winter Solstice is the longest night & shortest day of the year & marks the first day of winter. Throughout time this has represented the death & resurrection of the sun. Merry Solstice, everyone! #LuxBrumalis#Solstice#SolInvictus
#Hanukkah also known as the Jewish festival of light, celebrates their victory over the Greeks, when afterwards they lit an oil lamp which only had enough oil to burn the candle for one day. Miraculously it burned for eight days. This is now carried out in remembrance.
When the sun sets on the winter solstice, Jupiter & Saturn will line up in a way not seen for 800 years!
Between 16 Dec & Xmas Day, they will look like a double planet, separated by less than the width of a full Moon. The next opportunity isn’t until after 2400. #Jupiter#Saturn
Diwali is a time to celebrate light & of inner illumination. To commit ourselves to good deeds and bring us closer to divinity. To reflect on life & make the changes we want for the upcoming year. For the lights that illuminate our homes, represent the light in all our hearts.
The remains of a #Roman tavern (probably) in the vicus at Housesteads (Britain) - seemingly the scene of an ancient murder.
Two skeletons, a man & (probably) a woman, were found buried under the floor of the back room - one with a knife tip in the ribs.

Samhain means summers end in Gaelic & marks the beginning of winter or "darker half" of the Celtic year, now celebrated as #Halloween
A time when the nights grow longer & all around us freezes & dies, we find ourselves between the seasons, the realms of the living & the dead.
In the view of the ancient Egyptians life is our opportunity to prepare for the perilous journey of the soul after death. At the end of days you will be required to look your soul (often depicted as a human-headed bird) in the eye. Will you be ready?

This week. We take apart the word, Elohim. We ask, where does it come from? Are there hidden meanings? The bizarre conclusion to William Wirt. We follow it up with some great perspectives from Bro. Thomas Williams, Redefining the 3 Great Pillars! https://t.co/MrQmYr7ouH
