A devoted student of the Western Mystery Traditions, Greg is a firm believer in the Masonic connections to the Hermetic traditions of antiquity, its evolution through the ages and into its present configuration as the antecedent to all contemporary esoteric and occult traditions.

There are two other clips in the Pathé archives about The Honourable Fraternity of Ancient Freemasons (women freemasons):

ARE THERE STILL WOMEN MASONS these days? Just asking…
In response to Antonio, yes there are still women Freemasons. There are quite a number of Obediences. I am a member of an Obedience that allows men and women (working to the glory of T.G.A.O.T.U). This Obedience is called American Co-Masonry. There’s a most excellent book written about women in Freemasonry throughout history. Search Amazon for “Haunted Chambers” by Karen Kidd. Another book that is specific about women Freemasons in America is “On Holy Ground” by the same author.
