The Hiram Abif Star Map

THE HIRAM ABIF STAR MAP

A number of books have recently published research on the origins of Freemasonry. One specific book that came out in 2005, ‘The Arcana of Freemasonry’ was written by a top Mason, Albert Churchward. This author uses the ‘Hiram Abif star map’ on the cover of his book and refers to it as: “The First Degree Tracing Board of Freemasonry”.

Why does Wayne refer to this symbolic depiction as a ‘star map’?

The fact is that for any representation of stars to qualify as a real map identifying areas of the cosmos, it needs two things:

  • A recognisable star pattern
  • North and South orientation references
