I was totally excited and eager about the RPD as soon as I became Remetj, and I had mine done as soon as possible, with the self-promise that I was allowed to leap in head-first to the RPD, but I'd wait to swear any Shemsu vows, ideally for a year. (This turned out to be an especially good idea, given my results; when I was divined, I didn't know almost anything about Hethert-Nut, and waiting has let me really study and get to know Her before I swear to serve Her for the rest of my life.) I personally felt I was ready because having/not having a particular Netjeru in my line-up would not be a dealbreaker for me. Yes, there were certainly Names I wanted to see (Ma'ahes!), and Names I was not exactly hoping to see, but I knew I was willing to accept the results as they came and begin the process of understanding them. The RPD was verymuch an initiation for me, a stepping-through-the-doorway moment, a bright signal that I am willing to walk the Kemetic path. And even though Sekhmet, the only god I'd worshipped for years beforehand, did not show up in my RPD, I don't regret having it done or having it done quickly. All in all, the RPD was a wonderful experience, and I feel my choice of timing worked out pretty well.
