The Square and Compasses (or, more correctly, a square and a set of compasses joined together) is the single most identifiable symbol of Freemasonry. Both the square and compasses are architect's tools and are used in Masonic ritual as emblems to teach symbolic lessons. The meaning behind it is quite literal, with the square representing morality in that Freemasons need to ‘square [their] actions by the square of virtue with all mankind’.
The compass then measures the ability to wisely conduct actions within certain boundaries. In other words, together the Square and Compasses remind Freemasons to explore their desires and passions without stepping outside the realms of moral behavior.
This pendant features a Skull a the center of the Compass in which the Skull stands as a bastion in Masonry as a reminder that death is ever imminent and should incite ones reflection of their own life, and the Masonic letter G on the sides which reminds us that our every act is done in the sight of the Great Architect of the Universe.
