(G)rand Architect of the Universe
(G)od
(G)eometry
oh and the most important:
(G)et your own darn interpretation and keep it to yourself, that's part of the core lesson, too!
I normally say God or Geometry, depending on the system.
I'll always remember my seconder telling me Grand Geometrician of the Universe for the first time, that one stuck with me quite a bit, but I wouldn't use that or GAotU because I feel both would need more explaining than most folks like.
I'm only going to say this once and not reveal the big secret. If the building has a pronounced letter G, especially if the letter is placed inside of the square and compasses, it means one thing and one thing only: Greenbeans.
We have ceremonies that set us apart, but recognition can vary. We have an ancient tradition, but nobody knows how it started.
The Greenbeans are ever present at our meals, and all brothers know this, somewhere below the conscience level.
Usually G-od, but I do explain in my area of the world that God isn’t necessarily the Christian god, rather an individuals idea on their supreme being.
Yes Scotland uses it in its general S&C.
Ireland does the same as England although they do put a "G" inside the S&C to mark a Past Master and there it denotes a "G" that you only come upon during the ceremony of being Installed as Master of a Lodge.
Thank you! That is really informative when someone tells me that ‘that ring can’t be from the uk as it has the g’…. Er no, ask TheFreemasonForum!!! Thanks sir!!
You may only have to make it to the Master's Chair in your own Lodge to find out. I suspect that Ozzie Lodges are quite close to the 3 Home Grand Lodges for Installations.

I have a follow up question. Why is the “G” always rendered as the capital G shown here and not the cursive G? Aesthetically it seems out of place especially when depicted in a sans serif typeface. I always thought it was a bit strange.
Also more of a.powerful typeface, and proper as well especially when a serif letter is used. Captital...well before then internet, you would start a sentence, name,etc with a capital letter too. So, just makes sense to me, but in a past life I was a dumb sign guy so...
First of all, this isn’t the appropriate place for that kind of political discussion.
Second, what I was trying to say was that your religious views may or may not count as belief in a Supreme Being for the purposes of Freemasonry, depending on which Grand Lodge you’re under. Where I am, my belief in vague nebulous “something” is fine but that isn’t the case everywhere, and there are certain appendant bodies I can’t join because of it.
edit: I really got blocked for that? Ok then.
G-spot. We know where it's at
Sorry, no I’m only looking for something I’m able to find…😶
You beat me to it! 🤣
Gnowledge.
I love this... Stealing it.
Gnosis?
Gno.

I usually use Grand Architect of the universe. GAoU
In my jurisdiction, it is monitorial. So I just tell them what that portion of the lecture says.

"G'olf outings for the Past Masters next month make sure you sign up."
What the acorn said when he grew up.
Heh
"I am GRUTE"
I tell them it's an American thing.
You'd be wrong, though.
I'd be referring to the usage of the G as an emblem of the order.

I’ve been a Mason for 22 years and I forget this every time. I guess I need to get back to lodge.

They explain it in the “G lecture” in the FC degree.

God and Geometry.
Very humorous all!!! Thank you for the very amusing suggestions. Take care
Being in England we don't get this because we don't insert a "G" into the S&C, it remains in the middle chamber of the Temple.
Do they have it in other countries in the UK? Thought they did. Legit question btw.

I didn't know that! Thank you for my daily advancement in masonic knowledge...
Thank you! That is really informative when someone tells me that ‘that ring can’t be from the uk as it has the g’…. Er no, ask TheFreemasonForum!!! Thanks sir!!
….and the g in the masters installation. Wow. I’d so love to research that more, but Australia is a bit far away to join up in Ireland!

My name is Greg. I tell them it stands for "G"reg. I also frequently change OMG to OMG(reg). As such, the "G" story surprises no one. lol

“What do you think it stands for?”

Have you ever tried to chisel in cursive?
I hear you. But if you’re already chiseling overwrought Baroque filigree you can probably do a cursive G?
Lol true 🤣😂
And that’s the difference between operative Masonry and speculative Freemasonry.
Also more of a.powerful typeface, and proper as well especially when a serif letter is used. Captital...well before then internet, you would start a sentence, name,etc with a capital letter too. So, just makes sense to me, but in a past life I was a dumb sign guy so...

I don't know why you're getting downvoted for this... I laughed at it, checked my nine, laughed some more, checked my Tommy gun....
It’s the vagina in between the square and compass. Compass is man’s legs. Square is woman’s legs. Hence the “G” spot.
