Knight Rose Croix
A pelican bends towards its young beneath a radiant cross bearing a rose. A palm and a flowering rose plant frame the group. The emblem heads Chapter XVIII, Knight Rose Croix, in Morals and Dogma. Pike’s opening paragraph allows differing interpretations of the degree’s symbols, so the Gallery preserves the visible design without assigning it one exclusive doctrinal meaning.
