A Stroll Through The Seven Liberal Arts and Sciences

This article explores the crucial role of the liberal arts and sciences within Freemasonry, particularly highlighted during the Fellowcraft Degree's Winding Stair lecture.

Throughout our lives, we have heard of the liberal arts and sciences. But until we were presented with them in The Winding Stair lecture, most of us had only a vague notion of what they consisted. The Fellowcraft Degree commends Freemasons to study the Liberal Arts and Sciences, which are grammar, rhetoric, logic, arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy. When we study the historical background for this list, we will uncover layers of Masonic meanings for us in each of the seven areas of knowledge.
