A Past Master is a Mason who has served as the Master of a Lodge. The title signifies that the individual has held the highest office within a Masonic Lodge and has successfully fulfilled his duties in that role. The term “Past” indicates that the individual has completed his term as Master, and is now in a position to provide guidance and mentorship to the current Master and other members of the Lodge.
Being a Past Master comes with a certain level of respect and admiration from fellow Masons. This is because to become a Master, a Mason must demonstrate a deep understanding of the rituals and principles of Freemasonry, as well as the ability to lead his Lodge effectively.
Therefore, when a Mason becomes a Past Master, it is a testament to his knowledge, leadership skills, and commitment to the fraternity.
