The Ancient and Accepted Rite for England and Wales and its Districts and Chapters Overseas
|
The Ancient and Accepted Rite originated in France in 1754 and worked in the USA where a Supreme Council
was formed in 1801. The Supreme Council for England and Wales was established in 1845 under a patent
from the Supreme Council of the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction of the United States of America. The Rite
consists of its own 33 Degrees entirely separate and distinct from any other Order. The three Craft
Degrees are accepted as equivalent to the first 3 Degrees of this Rite. Candidates for Perfection
are taken from the 4º to 17º Degrees by name only, prior to being made Excellent and Perfect Princes
Rose Croix in a detailed and beautiful 18º Degree ceremony. This is the only degree permitted to be
worked in a private Rose Croix Chapter. Degrees above the 18º are awarded on merit after a brother has
passed the Chair of his Chapter.
