RITO ESCOCES ANTIGUO Y ACEPTADO
RITO
Conjunto de Grados Masónicos formando un todo coherente. Conjunto de reglas que fijan el desarrollo y las formas del trabajo en Logia.
RITUAL
Del latín Ritualis, lo que tiene relación con los Ritos. En Masonería se llaman así los libros que contienen el orden, las fórmulas y demás instrucciones necesarias para la práctica uniforme y regular de los trabajos Masónicos en general, así como para las ceremonias de Iniciación, aumentos de salario, o ascenso de Grados, fiestas y banquetes de la Orden, honras fúnebres, etc. La adopción y aprobación de los Rituales, es potestativa de la autoridad superior del Rito de cada cuerpo o Potencia jurisdiccional.
(Pequeño Diccionario de Términos Masónicos, pag. 12).
Las raíces del RE:.AA (forma abreviada de escribir Rito Escocés Antiguo y Aceptado), aparecen de una forma definida en 1756, si bien es a partir de 1801 cuando este Rito se estructura tal como se le conoce y practica la actualidad.
En España, así como en una gran parte de países de todo el mundo, el REAA ha causado siempre gran entusiasmo y admiración por ser este un Rito donde se combinan los elementos simbólicos más tradicionales con una dinámica de funcionamiento ciertamente expresiva que permite desarrollar junto a un profundo sentido de fraternidad, una agudo sentido del análisis racional que invita a enfocar la vida con criterios donde lo espiritual y lo racional se complementan extraordinariamente.
En las Logias que utilizan el R E AA se representan simbólicamente las Leyes que rigen el universo y sus trabajos se realizan fundamentalmente en dos líneas que se complementan como los brazos de un mismo cuerpo.
En primer lugar tenemos el Trabajo Ritualístico o Práctica del Ritual que permitirá, en sus grados de Aprendiz, Compañero y Maestro, a través de una serie de dramatizaciones ritualísticas de antiquísima simbología, tener una mayor conciencia de las Leyes y preceptos de la naturaleza y del universo de la que descubriría nuestra simple pero atenta observación.
En este sentido el ritual está estructurado y codificado de tal manera que conforma un hilo conductor, el cual no sólo puede transmitir un claro y sencillo mensaje general, sino que puede activar mecanismos subconscientes e
inconscientes que generan un elevado sentido de la trascendencia y de Dios o Gran Arquitecto del Universo. Así pues, en este Rito tiene una importancia capital no sólo a la Práctica del Ritual sino también a su asimilación espiritual, psicológica y conceptual.
En segundo lugar, dentro de los trabajos de la Logia se pone igualmente énfasis en los Trabajos Masónicos de tipo intelectual. Los Trabajos son presentados por escrito y, una vez leídos en la Tenida, son tratados de forma oral y coloquial entre los hermanos. De esta forma se consigue, a través de las diferentes apreciaciones u opiniones aportadas, una percepción profunda del tema tratado, con el consiguiente enriquecimiento y formación masónica que invariablemente dará sus frutos en cualquier ámbito o situación.
Siguiendo con el espíritu eminentemente dinámico de las Logias de REAA, habitualmente forma parte importante, el correspondiente ágape fraternal o cena realizada fuera de las Logias, donde se interrelacionan sus miembros y se desarrolla, si cabe en mayor medida, el profundo sentido de la Fraternidad que existe entre todos los Hermanos.
En términos generales, estas son las líneas esenciales que definen de manera particular el Rito Escocés Antiguo y Aceptado dando, por supuesto, un extraordinario énfasis a la aplicación práctica en la vida diaria y cotidiana de los frutos personales obtenidos mediante el "Trabajo" de tan antiguo Rito”.

Where is the Pyramid in Scotland?
Had you ever heard of the pyramid in Scotland? I certainly hadn’t. It may not be quite what you had in mind as your bucket list trip to the pyramids, but this landmark is still certainly worth the trek. The Scottish Pyramid is a real hidden gem!
“Pyramids, in Scotland… What are they doing there?!”
DISCLAIMER: I am no history buff so take the following information with the tiniest pinch of salt...
Queen Victoria fell in love with Prince Albert, who she later had nine children with. She died on the 22nd of January, 1901 at 82 years of age.
To commemorate the marriage and the family they had both conceived, a number of large cairns were erected within the vicinity of Balmoral Castle, the Scottish home of the Royal Family. In the area, you’ll be able to find cairns in honour of the following: Princess Beatrice (the youngest), Princess Alice, Prince Arthur, Prince Leopold, Princess Louise, Princess Helena… and a ‘Purchase Cairn’ which was constructed to mark the acquirement of Balmoral Estate by Queen Victoria. The largest cairn out of the 12 is Prince Albert’s ‘pyramid’.
To paint the picture a little better, I recommend you watch a movie called 'Young Victoria', before you head off on your cairn-searching endeavour.
It was said that Prince Albert had a great passion for the outdoors, especially the woodlands of Scotland. So with the craftmanship of the constructed pyramid combined with the cracking Scottish views it beholds, you can almost feel the heartfelt emotion Queen Victoria must have experienced upon the early death of her husband.

1911–1915, John Russell Pope. 1733 16th St. NW
(Carol M. Highsmith Archive, Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress)
Scottish Rite Temple (Franz Jantzen)
☰ SEE METADATA
The mausoleum at Halikarnassos (353–c. 340 b.c.e.) was a model for many buildings in this period, including Masonic temples, because as one of the seven wonders of the ancient world it was associated with the beginnings of Western architectural traditions. The origins of freemasonry are linked to the lodges of medieval stonemasons and with a practice of architecture based on fundamental rules of the universe, with its most esoteric aspects expressed through a language of symbols. The definition of freemasonry as “a peculiar system of morality, veiled in allegory, and illustrated by symbols” explains why the buildings housing such organizations are themselves expressive of symbolic meaning.
Thrown down by an earthquake in the thirteenth century and quarried in the sixteenth century by the Knights of Saint John for the building of one of their castles, King Mausolos's tomb, a Hellenistic monument located on the Turkish coast, was the subject of numerous reconstructions by historians, archaeologists, and architects based on two ancient texts that describe its huge dimensions, colonnaded base, and stepped pyramidal top supporting a quadriga.
John Russell Pope's design, based on Newton and Pullman's 1862 restoration of the mausoleum, is centered on a nearly square site (217.5 by 212 feet) and raised above 16th Street on a podium with steps that extend the width of the block and that are organized according to arcane numerology. Three, five, seven, and nine steps converge on the central entry, which is guarded by Sphinxes, sculpted by Adolph A. Weinman, representing wisdom and power, contemplation and action. Thirty-six Ionic columns 33 feet high circumscribe the temple room, where the highest degree of freemasonry (the thirty-third) is conferred. The attic, marked by acroteria and the stepped pyramid, covers a square Guastavino dome; thus, the basic form above the base encloses a single volume. The compact base, with its expanses of smooth walls broken only by windows and doors, the peripteral colonnade set against nearly solid walls, and the faceted surfaces of the roof demonstrate Pope's unerring sense of balanced proportional relationships between masses and details. The light, monochromatic Indiana limestone is particularly well suited to the combination of planar surfaces and finely carved Greek and Egyptian details. Although Pope, with the advice of local architect and mason Elliott Woods, was responsible for incorporating some basic symbolism, the inscriptions and symbolic decorative details were planned by the grand commander of the lodge, George Fleming Moore, after the architectural design was completed.
The ground story is represented by the monolithic base on the exterior; on the interior an apsed atrium is ringed by offices, meeting rooms, banquet hall, and libraries. The atrium's form and decoration were intended as symbolic imitation of a Roman impluvium. Two sets of four massive Doric columns in a highly polished green Windsor, Vermont, granite establish a pathway leading to the apse on the east, where the main stair rises to the temple room. The oak-beam ceiling is painted in deep shades of red, brown, blue, yellow, and green, as are the walls in recesses behind the column screens. The decorative vocabulary mixes Greek frieze motifs and Egyptian hieroglyphics. The variation of rich and beautifully crafted materials continues in the main space. The temple room, a square with beveled corners that continue up into the dome, is constructed of limestone walls, Botticino marble dado, black and white marble floors, and a Guastavino tile dome. Windows are screened by Ionic columns set in antis made of green Windsor, Vermont, granite. Their gilded bronze capitals and bases echo the lavish use of gold or bronze in the entablature, windows, screens, and doors. The vault nearly doubles the height of the room, a proportional relationship that complements the subdued richness of the architectural surface. American architectural critic Aymar Embury so admired Pope's Scottish Rite Temple that he maintained, “Roman architects of two thousand years ago would prefer [it] to any of their own work.” 43
