I recently joined Freemasonry on the evening of Feb 17th, an evening with a new moon, a lunar eclipse, a solar fire ring and also representing the start of the new lunar year, the year of the fire horse, in the Chinese Zodiac. AMA

I became interested in Freemasons when I moved to St Leonards-on-Sea. There are some interesting links with Hastings, St Leonards and Freemasons.
The Burtons Memorial is located close to the Masonic Lodge and is marked with a Pyramid overlooking the Sea.
Alistair Crowley supposedly died in the area, some say he's now Joe Rogan 🤔
Many of my friends in the area are Masons
I declined to join, it goes against being a Flat Earther 🤫👁🤝😉😄
I found it curious that Alan Turing spent a significant part of his childhood in St Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex, where he lived at Baston Lodge, a stones throw from The Masonic Hall
Legacy: The town recognizes Turing as a key historical figure, and his early life in St Leonards is celebrated through local plaques, historical articles, and educational tours. The new £50 banknote, launched in 2021, features Turing and acknowledges his upbringing in St Leonards.
His time in St Leonards shaped the early development of a mind that would go on to revolutionize computer science, cryptography, and artificial intelligence.
