Even the appendant bodies of Freemasonry have beautiful, practical lessons contained within the Holy Scriptures. The pages of this book provide some of those lessons and a brief exploration of seeing Christ in the appendant bodies of The Order of Eastern Star and the Order of Amaranth. May you find the lessons, revelations, meanings, and explanations in these pages inspiring enough to expand your Masonic quest for knowledge and meaning.

The Rite of Adoption consists of the following degrees:
1. The Eastern Star, the first or initiatory degree.
2. The Queen of the South, the second degree.
3. The Amaranth, the third degree.

The rituals of these degrees have been carefully constructed, as has the Matron’s Administrative Degree, a subordinate degree no longer used by the Order of Amaranth. Their inculcation of lofty and noble principles appeals to human nature's best instincts.
