These degrees are known as the Ineffable degrees of the Lodge of Perfection. The Lodge of Perfection governs these degrees. They begin with the Fourth Degree and culminate with the Ineffable Name of God, which is the Lost Word of Freemasonry in the Thirteenth Degree.

These degrees comprise the Chapter of Rose Croix. It commences with the trials of those who have acquired Knowledge, and who wish to climb to yet higher truths. The Chapter Rose Croix presents Faith, Hope and Charity as sure guides to our actions, and as the safest paths through adversity. We are instructed to follow for them in their hightest form of human expression: as Comassion and the Law of Love. By this means we will arrive at a solution to one of the greatest Enigmas of Nature and the manifested world.

The Coucil of The Kadosh comprises the Nineteenth through the Thirtieth Degrees. The word “Kasdosh” is Hebrew, and means “consecrated or dedicated.” Its members are dedicated to the discovery of philisophical truths and chivalric values. These degrees present various concepts of Diety and man’s search to discover Him. These lessons are provided for instruction, not doctrine. The manner in which and individual worships the creator is of private concern, and Freemasonry will not interfere with it. Our symbols are to be interpreted within the confines of your own beliefs, without intrusion. The Degrees in this series also teach of Certain Orders of Knighthood and the lessons we should draw from history and deeds.

The Consistory of the Masters of the Royal Secret comprise these degrees. The Consistoral Degrees present some of their lessons by borrowing the symbols of other cultures and time. The Master of the Royal Secret learns that by self sacrifice and the application of philisophical truth he may become part of Freemasonry’s ideal of a Holy Empire or intellect, reason, philosophy and wise morality.
