The Craft is a learning opportunity. The grail we all aspire toward, some level of transformation to a better person is unclear, as is the way one achieves it. As you will find, this is not a short-cut. It is a thought map designed to shape behaviour. I"m inclined to think it places us in an atmosphere of arguments about truth. There is room at this table for one more. A new language, emphasis on control of emotion, it is more like finishing school that combat training. MasonicFX is simply and extension of that. An acquired taste where conversation is about possibilities. Sit in as you like. We stumble along, still trying to find the edge of this interesting universe!

Upcoming Broadcasts

A commentary, a poem, some history book dissected, interspersed with jazz. Such an indulgence, But to borrow a phrase from a BBC writer- All it has to do is be beautiful. Who can explain the format? You really have to tune it. I found the first tentative efforts felt over done, until we settled in to a routine we could anticipate. For awhile we invited you to pull up a comfortable chair, pour your favourite bev and for the briefest of time, let us entertain and inform about ideas related and relevent. No one can pin point when we began meeting, but intuitively we seem to know. I've often thought we were there- men just like us talking, sharing reactions and ideas. Everyone can't be Issac Newton or William Blake but their work and ideas was shared with the world. For many of us, the Brotherhood did exactly that. It bundled great ideas into a format shared with a few select men, in front of the entire world. So much was left unwritten on purpose. We didn't have scripts to follow. We had concepts to work and rework. Tautology was always in the background giving us a prompt and a reminder. Everything is is a constant state of change. Everything moves. So do we and so does this interesting system of morality and virtue- whateverthehellthat means. And so MasonicFX reaches a next stage. Please, earch social media for us. We will find a new home and you are invited of course. Thank you for the overwhelming support Brethren and guests.
