The National Mexican Rite is a rite of Freemasonry founded in Mexico in about 1834.[1]
The rite consists of six further degrees after the degree of Master Mason (commonly known as the third degree). They are fourth degree (Approved Master), fifth-degree (Knight of the Secret), sixth-degree (Knight of the Mexican Eagle), seventh-degree (Perfect Architect), eighth degree (Grand Judge), and ninth degree (Grand Inspector General).[2] The rituals of the degrees were largely adapted from the Scottish Rite.[1]
