Misraim Memphis

The Ancient and Primitive Rite of Misraim and Memphis is inarguably the most Hermetic Masonic Order in the International Masonic scene. Is the fusion of the esoteric process of the Egyptian Rite or Rite of Misraim that came from Venice at 1801 and the Oriental Rite or Rite of Memphis that came at 1839 in Paris, and it was based on a nomenclature that worked through the degrees of Misraim from start, including the Initiations and Rites of the Oriental Rite. The Rite of Misraim came from Venice at 1801 due to the efforts of Filalete Abraham and immediately spread into Italy and France. The Oriental Rite of Memphis came at 1839 in Paris from Etienne Marconis. In the Archives of Sovereign Grand Sanctuary of Adriatic (Superum) among other documents, three scrolls are kept that make restitution of the incipiencies and shunts of the two Rites whose merger was contributed to Marco Egidio Allegri’s own accord. He stood as Supreme Force of the Misraim of Venice at 1923 and also Grand Lineman ad vitam of the Memphis Rite at Palermo where he was later on put to sleep at 1925. The information about these two Rites are a bit fractioned due to the historical inflexions that both Rites underlay, mostly the Rite of Misraim that in the course of time came across with the political power and authority of other Mason forces which having lost the true spirit of the Ancient Initiation, rendered elite clubs that could hardly accept the occurrence of an orthodox elite. These forces always tried to absorb the orthodox elite Rites in any way they could, obviously, so that they could restore their lost for ages traditional genuineness. Especially in Italy, the fights that were conducted in the 19th century from the Austrian Government in the Lombardy - Venice and other Governments of different states of the peninsula were very poisonous. During the 20th century, a lot of mud-slinging was spilled from the fascistic established order of Italy. Nevertheless, the most important documents were saved and spread till our days. Such documents allow us to guarantee that the Rite of Misraim was active at Zakynthos Island at 1782 and at Venice at 1796. In Venice the Rite was put to sleep after the capture of Enetic Democracy from Austria and awakened from Filalete Abraham, which was the name of Byron Tassoni di Modena, on 1801. On 16th of May 1945, right after the end of World War II, M.E. Allegri activated his privileges as Supreme Force as 90° of Misraim and Grand Limeman “ad vitam” of the Rite of Memphis and merged these Rites to one, creating the Ancient and Primitive Oriental Rite of Misraim and Memphis that was developed into 95 degrees, proceeding in the foundation of Sovereign Grand Sanctum of Adriatic (Superum), The Sublime Secret Temple, The Sublime Consistorium of the 30° 90° degree, and the Sublime Peristyle of Orphics. M.E.Allegri also founded in perpetuity the Ruling Mother Lodge of «OSIRIS» and established the Sublime Councils and the Ruling Mother Lodge in the zenith of Venice to confirm the origin and to ensure the continuum of the Worshipful Rite in the future. On 14/10/1949, M.E. Allegri passed over the Eternal Grand Pyramid, after he put on sleep the lesser Chambers of the Rite, leaving as a successor though his will Ottavio Ulderisco Zasio that ruled the High Hierophancy till 5/1/1966, day of his passage to the Eternal Grand Pyramid, succeeded by Count Gastone as it was said in the will of the passed. Count Gastone awakened the Rite on all the Chambers at the Winter Solstice of 1971 and ruled the High Hierophancy till 28/7/1981 that passed over the Enternal Grand Pyramid leaving as his successor Sebastiano Caracciolo, current Emperor Sovereign Grand General Hierophant. The Emperor Sovereign Grand General Hierophant ensures the continuum of the Rite even if it is put on sleep on its lower Chambers and sometimes on the higher too.
