Occult Science in Masonry by A.E. Waite is a penetrating study of the esoteric currents that flowed through eighteenth-century Freemasonry, particularly in France. Exploring the interplay between Masonic ritual and occult disciplines such as alchemy, astrology, and ceremonial magic, Waite distinguishes the psychic from the spiritual, and the ephemeral from the eternal. First published in The Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, this essay remains a vital resource for understanding the deeper mystical aspirations—and limitations—of occult Masonry.
