Library Night is an opportunity to browse the books in our esoteric library and to engage in impromptu conversations on varied topics. TS members have borrowing privileges for books and DVDs. Non-members are welcome to read in the library. Free and open to all.

After the 20th, the lodge will be closed for the holidays until Sunday, Jan 7th, 1-3 pm for an Open Discussion program. The January-February 2018 program schedule will be posted by the end of December on our website and our Facebook page.

Street parking on the 500 block of N. Charles Street is free on Sundays and after 6 pm on weekdays. We are located near the Walters Art Museum, and half a block from stop #306 on the Purple Route of the free Charm City Circulator bus.

On December 17th, 1-2 pm, Ann Ford will give a chronological overview of Egypt’s religious history. There will be handouts. [Look for more talks on the esoteric aspects of Egyptian religion in 2018.]

Immediately following the talk, there will a festive get-together – decorating the lodge and a potluck lunch for current and past friends of our lodge. This is a free event.

The next Sunday program will be an Open Discussion on January 7th, 2018.

Mr Jackson will compare current scientific knowledge about the Ninth Planet, to ideas from interpretations of cuneiform and Biblical texts. CalTech astronomers reported in January 2016 that observations of Kuiper Belt objects at the edge of our solar system could indicate the existence of a new planet. Is this Ninth Planet the same as the one Zecharia Sitchin wrote about in The 12th Planet?

The program is free and open to all.

We regret any inconvenience the cancellation may cause.

Both these gatherings are free and open to all. Our Sunday program is 1-3 pm, and Wednesday’s is 6-8 pm. See our schedule for more information about them.

Parking is free on our block of 100 N Charles St on Sundays and weekdays after 6 pm, just south of the Walters Art Museum and the Washington Monument. We are also half a block from the Circulator’s Hamilton Street stop.
