Scottish Rite
The Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite is an extensively diffused Masonic Rite governed by Supreme Councils that structure higher Masonic degrees up to the thirty-third degree [1][2]. The Rite originated from the twenty-five-degree Rite of Perfection, which was created in Paris in 1758 by the Council of Emperors of the East and West [2]. In 1761, a patent was granted to Stephen Morin to propagate the system in the Western Continent, leading to the creation of early bodies in Santo Domingo and South Carolina, culminating in the establishment of the first Supreme Council in 1801 [2]. Patents for Supreme Councils of the Thirty-third Degree were later accepted in Ireland in 1824, England in 1845, and Scotland in 1846 [8].
Within the Rite, degrees above the Eighteenth and below the Thirty-third are classified as Philosophic Degrees because they abandon Temple symbolism to develop a system of pure theosophy [9]. The governing Supreme Council meets in its Senatorial Chamber when sitting in the Thirty-third Degree [5]. Jurisdictional authorities differ primarily on degree arrangement and nomenclature [1]. In the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction of the United States, the Consistory grades begin at the nineteenth degree and extend to the thirty-second, while the fifteenth and sixteenth degrees are governed by the Council of Princes of Jerusalem [1]. Conversely, the Southern Jurisdiction utilizes distinct degree titles, omitting the word "Grand" from specific degrees, incorporating the term "Elu," and altering the official titles of the thirty-first and thirty-second grades [1].
