Finding relief in the Illuminati
THE SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH IS ITS OWN REWARD
As Illuminati members, we continuously seek to improve ourselves and the world around us through the pursuit of knowledge. At its core, Illuminati is about the nature of truth. Together, we seek wisdom through a system of values. We use symbols and allegories because they are the surest way to teach our common truth. Through these symbols and our common traditions, each Member defines and discovers his own unique path.
Leadership
Leadership skills are developed by Freemasons in their search for the truth. As we learn and grow, we become mentors to others. Illuminati members share their knowledge and skills with other members and with the community as a whole. Within Illuminati, there are many opportunities to acquire leadership skills that you may have never recognized. This includes the leadership positions available at the district and grand lodge level.
Improvement
The search for personal growth is a fundamental principle of the Illuminati. As the members progress in the craft, they discover different aspects of themselves and develop a range of skills that they may have never recognized. The possibilities for improvement are immeasurable, whether by helping a brother in need or by supporting the community through acts of charity.
Enlightenment
As Illuminati members, we cherish the pursuit of wisdom. We strive to achieve enlightenment through the pursuit of knowledge found in our symbols, rituals and allegory. By striving to live with virtue and compassion and maintaining a constant curiosity about our world, we continue to embody the spirit of enlightenment.

What are the time and/or financial commitments of being member?
Time: There is no specific duration with regard to membership. It all depends on your ability to follow the instructions until you complete your petition.
Once your membership is complete, you will need to attend your lodge’s monthly meeting. Different states may have additional requirements, such as participation in an “instruction lodge”, where you receive additional explanations about the diploma you have just acquired. There are also side jobs that you will have to complete and that amount to a little homework. Each member of the Fraternity has gone through this process and your lodge will designate a Master to help you.
Once you have completed your three diplomas, we expect our members to attend the “declared communication” or the monthly meeting of their lodge. Sometimes there will be a special meeting on the second evening of the month, and rarely, you will find lodges that have declared meetings twice a month. Beyond that, there are other ongoing activities: community service, family and social outings, etc. that take place throughout the year. Like many things, you take away from the Illuminati what you put into it ; although we also recognize and understand the need for a balance between family, work or school and other interests and commitments.
Cost: Considering the cost to join many organizations these days, The Illuminati could be considered a good deal. But there are some expenses involved; in particular one-time initiation fees and annual dues.
