If all goes as planned, I'll be FC by the time I get back to bed.

Being irregular I'll use a slightly different term than my usual -

Welcome again to the family twice adopted step-brother.

Here our worldly differences keep us from encountering each other in a lodge made with hands. We walk by choice on different sides of the same river.

There will come a day when we have both reached the source of that river. Then I believe our differences will be mortal memories and I take it on faith that we will be able to encounter each other in a lodge not made with hands. So may it be for all of us.

Thank you Doug.
It was a less exiting Rite as that of the initiation, but besides some expected elements, it also had a few surprises. It contains some nice symbolism to overthink. I guess I'll have about a year for that!

The Rite says as much. The same for EA of course. That that work is to be repeated is much intwined in the FC Rite (in particular in the steps).
I just started reading the Rite. Let me see what I remember and what not.
