"The White Swan Lodge, No 1348" is a lodge of St John of the Grande Loge de France working in French in London, Uk.
The Grand Lodge of France was lawfully established by at least three lodges coming from a regular Grand Lodge.
It is truly independent and self-governing, with undisputed authority over Craft - or basic - Freemasonry (i.e. the symbolic degrees of Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft and Master Mason) within its jurisdiction and not subject in any other way to or sharing power with any other Masonic body. It mostly works the three Craft (Blue) degrees of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite (A&ASR). Its members and visitors are men only.
All Freemasons under its jurisdiction must take their Obligations on the Volume of the Sacred Law (i.e. the Bible) or the book held sacred by the man concerned.
They work a traditional ritual To the Glory of the Grand Architect of the Universe with deference to the “Old Charges” and concern of their transmission.
The three “'Great Lights” of Freemasonry, (i.e. the Volume of the Sacred Law, the square and the Compasses) must be on display when the Grand Lodge or its subordinate Lodges are open.
Political and religious discussions are prohibited.
