Granger particularly postulates that Luna will symbolize the Albedo
stage in Book 6, but it seems to me the next stage for Harry will be
resolving his relationship with Albus, the master alchemist, in
order to reunite with Rubeus in the final stage/book. And then Harry
will be back where he started, with the Keeper of the Keys. Reminds
me of T.S. Eliot:

"We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time." (Four Quartets)

I like what Jen & Iris have posted.  I was also wondering if perhaps 
the series will end at the begining, back at Godric's Hollow or 
perhaps with the original split between the founders of Hogwarts. I 
can't help but think that JKR is always introducing the past (and I 
think she has done it in someway or another in every book). 

The series start the day after the Godric's Hollow attack, we've also 
had Tom's diary, time-travel, the Little Hangleton flashback, the 
memory of the 1st prophecy via the penseive. Also, DD's memories of 
the trials, and of teenage Bertha Jorkins. The penseive also showed 
us Snape's worst memory.   

What's left to know?  The events of Godric's Hollow, the break-up 
between the founders, and the torture of Neville's parents.

How will we find out about GH? Will it be through a penseive memory, 
or a confession, we don't know yet? The same goes for the 
Longbottoms, with the added possibility that one of the parents will 
snap out of their illness to explain all. (I may be wrong about this 
but I keep remembering the vision of Snape dressed in Grandmother's 
clothes--like a wolf in sheep's clothing.)

What about the founders?  Will JKR write a flashback scene? It can't 
be via a penseive or a memory because no one that is presently alive 
is from that time, right?  Or how about Ron's brain attack?  This 
could be another way for JKR to bring back info from the past.  
If the brain belonged to Godric then Ron might have important 
information to impart and a penseive could be used for all to see 
that past. (Why else would add the brain attack anyway.)    

We may in the end be brought back to where the story began but with 
new understanding of what happened.
