Masonic Ring gift from co-worker

[thescot]

My co-worker for the past three years and now fellow brother gave me a ring and I was very curious as to which way do my fellow brothers wear their rings, compass points facing inward or out to the world?

“You are supposed to wear the ring "compass - pointed" into yourself until you become a Past Master of your lodge. At which time you can turn it out to the rest of the world, as you have reached the point of Master, and have mastered the art of the Quadrant, and you may now share your wisdom with others”.

What a thoughtful gift from a true brother. Congratulations.

I wear everything masonic in a manner that shows the jewel correctly to others. I usually wear a Scottish Rite ring with the two heads of the eagle toward me, but I do have a blue lodge ring, and when I wear it, I wear it with the angle of the square pointing away from me so that the jewel is rightside up to other people.

I don't know of any rule about the ring; just wear it with pride and show yourself a man of integrity so others will respect the light.

Very nice gift brother. I wear my ring with the point of the compass pointing to me. I don't know of any hard true rule on how to wear it. The great thing about the brotherhood is that it teaches you to think for your self, so wear it how every makes you happy.
Travel Well Brother.
