Masons getting masonic tattoos?

RoughAshlar · 06-18-2008, 04:37 AM

I think there was a thread on this before... I dont see any problem with it, and personally feel it is no different than wearing a ring, watch, pendant, etc... with a masonic symbol.

I don't see a problem with it either . I know a lot of Brother's with them , I'm planning on getting one myself after I get an old tat covered .

I've thought about it. I don't see anything wrong with it.

I was wondering the same thing. If accepted, I was planning on getting one as my first order of business.

I would love to get one, if only I new a good tattoo artist in Minnesota. I think a tat can be cool if it is made right. I have seen many home made and poorly made ones. I would not want one of those. Do your research first.

I think they are fine as well, I have known a few individuals with Masonic Tattoo's, I have incorporated a few aspects into my tattoo, but not a purely masonic insignia. I will continue to add pieces into any of my tattoo's. It just needs to fit into whatever look I am after.
