Progression begins in symbolic lodges with the first three degrees—Apprentice, Fellow Craft, and Master Mason—after which members advance through higher degrees and workshops of perfection within the same overarching framework.

The Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite developed from the Rite of Perfection, a twenty-five degree system created by the Council of Emperors of the East and West, which was organized at Paris in 1758. Despite the name, the system did not originate in Scotland. Arthur Edward Waite notes that while some have suggested the Rite derived from the Chapter of Clermont, no supporting evidence exists for this link.

What is the reason for so many degrees in the Scottish Rites and the logical grouping? What is the prgressive learning it is supposed to depict and why this way?
The thirty-three degrees of the Rite were established by adding Scottish Masonic degrees to earlier twenty-five-degree systems compiled by Etienne Morin and Henry Francken under the Grand Constitutions of 1786, as the Supreme Council 33° notes. Rather than initiating candidates into the first three degrees, the Supreme Council accepts the three Craft degrees as equivalents to the 1° through 3°. Under this administrative structure, local Chapters confer degrees up to the 18°, while the higher degrees are personally conferred by the Supreme Council.
