CLC - ENTERED APPRENTICE - 05.22.17

P ERFECT P OINTS OF E NTRANCE Initiatic ceremonies require certain actions for admission into the group to be effective. In the Entered Apprentice Degree, we call these actions the Perfect Points of Entrance. Although these points were earlier understood to mean preparation, obligation, sign, grip or token and word, we now consider only four. The Guttural refers to your entrance upon the penal responsibilities; the Pectoral, to your entrance into the lodge; the Manual, to your entrance on the obligation; and the Pedal, to your entrance for lifelong learning, starting in the northeast corner.
