A week ago, our Worshipful Master delivered a very special gift from Esoterika Lodge No. 316 to the Scottish Rite Valley of Little Rock’s Fall Reunion. We were honored to present The 1783 Francken Manuscript, a rare and treasured volume that illuminates Masonic heritage and esoteric teachings. With heartfelt pride, our members and even our Grand Master signed the inside cover, and we included the following dedication:

"Presented to the Scottish Rite Valley of Little Rock by Esoterika Lodge No. 316, F&AM Seattle, Washington. In recognition of the enduring bond between Craft and Rite, and in the spirit of furthering the light of Masonic knowledge, we proudly donate this rare manuscript. May its pages inspire future generations to continue the search for truth, wisdom, and brotherhood. Fraternally, The Brethren of Esoterika Lodge No. 316."

It was an honor to present this to Illustrious Brother James Graham and add to their already impressive Library in Little Rock.

As an Esoterika tradition, we also brought along the Steve Osborn Travelling Gnome, a tribute to our esteemed Brother, WB Stephen Osborn who is unfortunately unable to travel much these days. The gnome has accompanied us on many journeys across the globe, and we were glad to share his spirited presence at this memorable event. Enjoy a few snapshots of our journey, and let this unique contribution serve as a testament to our Lodge's commitment to Masonic unity and enlightenment.

Esoterika Lodge No. 316 hosted a truly unforgettable Table Lodge this month! We were honored to welcome Grand Master M.W. James C. Norton, who shared his wisdom and insight with all who attended. Special thanks go out to our military members for their service and for leading the stirring military toasts of the evening.
This unique event, rarely performed, required dedicated preparation from all the Brothers—and it showed! The camaraderie, ritual, and fellowship were exceptional, with education on Mozart’s The Magic Flute adding an extra note of intrigue. A heads-up to all: keep an eye out for details on our upcoming outing to the Seattle Opera to see The Magic Flute performed live next year!
A wonderful evening, full of Brotherhood and new memories—Esoterika Lodge at its finest!

Here are some photos from the evening!

Table Lodge is coming up next month for Esoterika, so check your calendars to see what you are doing Tuesday October 22nd!

Fellowship commences promptly at 5 p.m.

This is a RARE event for us and, as you may expect, we add our own flair to it as well.

We are limited in seating for the evening and as of writing this we have 30 available seats left for $30 each. The main course will be salmon for the evening, and you can RSVP at https://esoterikalodge.com/paypal , but just keep in mind that once we hit 62 RSVPs, we will close reservations.

Education for the evening will be on Mozart's "The Magic Flute" in preparation for the play coming back to Seattle next year.

Our Most Worshipful Grand Master of Free and Accepted Masons of Washington James C. Norton will be in attendance as well.

Our newest Entered Apprentice's led by one of our Fellowcrafts created an amazing Event this past Tuesday. It was a Fellowship event that will be extremely difficult to top in the future. The theme was based on the "Mutus Liber". Atop of one of Seattle's beautiful Downtown buildings we got together to discuss Alchemy, Poetry, Music, and most importantly bask in the Fellowship of Masonry. You'll want to look out for this event next year!!!
