""Som Deeper Aspects of Masonic Symbolism"" is a book written by Arthur Edward Waite that explores the symbolism and meaning behind the rituals and practices of Freemasonry.

Through his analysis of Masonic symbols such as the square and compass, the apron, and the trestleboard, Waite sheds light on the hidden meanings and allegories that underlie the Masonic tradition.
