Freemasonry is an organization that exists all over the world. Each group sets its own Masonic ritual and use of symbols. Examples of a these symbols are the square and compasses.
Some examples of Masonic symbols in Freemasonry include the square and compasses, the letter "G" representing God or geometry, the apron representing purity, the trowel representing spreading brotherly love, and the all-seeing eye symbolizing the watchful eye of God.

These words are typically used together to imply that Freemasonry and Judaism (or even Zionism) are inextricably linked. "Anti Jewish-Masonic" refers to anything that is opposed to the conspiratorially-perceived union of Jewish and Masonic interests.In truth, while there are some Jewish Freemasons, most Freemasons are not Jewish and most Jews are not Freemasons. They also have distinct interests and beliefs. If you go to synagogues (for Judaism) or lodges (for Freemasonry), members will clarify what those interests are.
Masonic Lodges have existed since the Middle Ages. However, some date speculative Freemasonry from the introduction of the Schaw Statutes in Scotland in 1598 and 1599. This is the Freemasonry of the so-called "Ancients." The Freemasonry of the "Moderns" is dated from 1717, when four London lodges met at the Goose and Gridiron alehouse to form the first grand lodge. Many believe, however, that this was merely a move by Whigs among the upper-class Freemasons of London to distance themselves from the Tories and Jacobites among the older, Ancients strain of the fraternity.

The Illuminati was a movement that was founded in 1776 and was begun by Adam Weishaupt with the ideals of Enlightenment, freedom of thought and equality among classes of people. Adam Weishaupt modeled the group in some ways on Freemasonry and some members came from Masonic lodges. The Illuminati does not exist in Freemasonry world because they were disbanded by the end of the 18th century.

Yes. <><><> Depends on how you define "secret society". In free countries, membership in Freemasonry is not a secret, but is openly acknowledged by the wearing of Masonic emblems, etc. Much of the Masonic ritual is reserved to members of the Masonic orders. However, in some countries ruled by totalitarian regimes and repressive dictatorships, membership in Freemasonry, and other personal freedoms, are outlawed. As a result, Freemasonry in those countries is very much a secret society, and it's membership, meeting times and places, and even the existence of the organization is secret.
