What was your final disposition in the lodge and what instruction did you receive?

• A. Placed in the Southwest corner, facing away.
• B. Placed in the Northeast corner with feet together.
• C. Placed in the Northeast corner, feet forming a right angle, and the Master charged you to walk and act as a just and upright Mason.
• D. Placed at the door.

Answer: (C)

In this moment, the emphasis is on how an Entered Apprentice is received into the lodge and what guidance he is given to begin his journey. The description that fits best is: you are placed in the Northeast corner with your feet forming a right angle, and the Master charges you to walk and act as a just and upright Mason. This combination is symbolic: the Northeast corner marks your placement as you start your path, the right-angle stance shows balance and readiness to move forward, and the Master’s instruction sets the expectation to conduct yourself with integrity and fairness in all your Masonry duties.

The other scenarios don’t align with the traditional disposition you’re given: one option places you with feet together, another places you in a different corner or at the door, none of which correspond to the standard EA rite or the specific charge to walk and act as a just and upright Mason.
