The Hung Society is interesting. Potentially Freemasonry did not start in the West.

I've been a student of Jewish lore for an eternity - or it seems. To wit wiki: Is this what we are talking about? As I understand it, Freemasonry is organized on spiritual principles that cohere to midrashic exegetical ideology? It seems strange that this relationship isn't more publically acknowledged because it is so accurate. I mentioned elsewhere that music is my religion... So another son(g) for those who might not understand.. youtu.be/OOwCNR13PKU

There is much to be learned there, and when we have learned enough we can move into the next cycle - sign of the zodiac.

To the extent that Masonry is based on application of the geometry of space-time then I would argue that there is much more than comparative meaning (moral speculation)
