Best Answer

This answer is debatable and there is no official Grand Lodge ruling.

Those who wear the ring with the square and compasses facing themselves frequently do so to remind themselves that they are a Mason. They often believe that wearing them the other way is akin to "bragging", which is not a Masonic virtue.

Those who wear the ring with the square and compasses facing away from themselves frequently do so because the points of the compasses should point downward, which is the case when the hand is held in its normal (down) position.
