Actually most jurisdictions only require you to be 18 years of age. In order to become a freemason is to ask one, you do not need to know one personally, just contact the nearest lodge to you and they will lead in the right direction, just be sure not to petition a BOGUS Masonic group, Like International, AF&AM or Compact, these group of masons are not recognized nor are they legit and you will most like get your feelings hurt if you ever leave the country and try attend a meeting.

The three basic qualifications are that you must be male, at least 21 (which you've just met), and believe in some form of God.
