Foreshadowing of book 6 in PoA

[Diana]

As I was watching PoA the second time, I paid special attention to 
anything that might be a possible foreshadowing of future events in 
book 6.  Most are probably not important, but as we won't know which 
are and which aren't until the release of book 6...so here they are 
in no particular order:

Foreshadowing?

1. Dumbledore's line to Snape about letting Harry sleep in the Great 
Hall.  He says something like "Let him sleep and dream for he can 
build his own world in his dreams - he can swim the deepest ocean or 
soar over the highest cloud."  That's not word for word, but close. 

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could it foreshadow a mental war that 
Harry wages with Voldemort in his very dreams?  We know dreams have 
been very important for Harry because he's been having actual mental 
contact with Voldemort through his dreams for years.  Could Harry 
possibly strike a real blow against Voldemort using just his dreams? 

2. Ron's line "I'm not going back up there!" to a rather surprised 
(hurt?) Harry when Harry proposes they take Trelawney's crystal ball 
(that Hermione knocked down the stairs) back to her.

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could Ron inadvertently betray Harry by 
not being the backup he needs at a critical moment?  Could Ron 
refuse to revisit a place that Harry then visits alone resulting in 
a horrible injury/experience for Harry that Ron then feels guilty 
for forever?  Could this signal a separation in 
friendship/closeness/physical proximity between Ron and Harry for a 
large part of book 6?  

3. The framing of Harry alone on the left side of Hagrid and Ron and 
Hermione together on the right of Hagrid as Hagrid throws stones 
into the lake while discussing Buckbeak's sentence of death. 

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could Harry be on his own for most of 
book 6 due to a break/argument/physical separation from both 
Hermione and Ron?  Could Ron and Hermione's growing attaction to 
each other make Harry feel left out and excluded from their 
friendship?  Could Ron and Hermione getting together as a couple 
make Harry feel hopelessly alone and separate from everyone because 
he has no girlfriend, no parents and no godfather?  

4. The arrangement of Sirius and Harry as they lay on the ground by 
the lake after the dementor's attack on them has ended and after 
Harry faints.  They are lying in exactly the same position, head 
slightly to one side, legs bent, arms out, only they are turned 180 
degrees from each other.  

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could this be a way to show that Harry 
and Sirius are similar and await a similar fate, such as Harry going 
to Azkaban or being accused of a murder?  Could this be a way to 
show that Harry and Sirius are like yin and yang, two halves of a 
whole, complimentary, but different, wherein Harry, at a similar 
crucial moment, makes a different choice than Sirius because he knew 
Sirius had made the wrong choice the first time?  Or will Harry make 
the same choice because of the similar poses?  Maybe it's just great 
cinematograhy.  :)

5. Trelawney's line to Ron "Your aura's pulsing, my dear.  Are you 
in the beyond?" as Ron was trying to read Harry's tea leaves.

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could Ron be a seer and Trelawney saw 
this gift in his aura [as several posters have already speculated]? 
Could Ron visit the beyond, meaning does he briefly die and come 
back?  Or could he die and not come back. (I hope not for Harry's 
sake.)  Could Ron's pulsing aura be a sign of an important, yet 
still undisclosed, role he must play in helping Harry defeat 
Voldemort?    

6.  Lupin's comments about Lily's kindness and ability to see the 
good in people, no matter what was on the outside, while talking to 
Harry on the covered bridge.  And Lupin's comments about Lily being 
an exceptional witch while also commenting that James had a penchant 
for trouble.  Also, Lupin's comments about Harry giving James a run 
for his money [as an excellent wizard] right after Harry fights the 
boggart dementor.

What it *might* foreshadow:  Many think this indicates that Lupin 
was in love with Lily, and that's a possiblity.  But I have some 
more ideas.  Could it mean that Lily saw past JAMES' flaws, because 
Harry finds out some very unpleasant things about his dad in book 
6?  We've already seen a hint of this in Snape's memory of James in 
book 5.  Could the comments about Lily and James being 
exceptional/great wizards be a build up to some previously unknown 
skill/gift that Harry has that makes the difference in the battle 
with Voldemort?  Could Lupin's comments about Harry being as least 
as good as or possibly better than his dad indicate Harry making a 
different choice than his dad made at a crucial moment that changes 
Harry's fate?  

7.  Malfoy's comment of "I'll get that jumped-up mudblood 
Granger..." as he runs away after Hermione punched in the face.  

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could this indicate that Malfoy 
greviously injures or harms Hermione in some way in book 6?  Could 
it indicate that Malfoy attempts revenge on Hermione but it rebounds 
onto himself in a horrible way?  Could Malfoy's attempt at revenge 
against Hermione end up rebounding on Ron, Harry, Neville or some 
other character by mistake?

8.  Harry's exuse to Snape that he was 'sleepwalking' in the hallway 
when Snape caught him with the Marauder's Map.

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could this throwaway line indicate that 
Harry does some real sleepwalking in book 6?  Perhaps some 
sleepwalking while Harry's being controlled by Voldemort?  

9.  Sirius Blacks comments to Harry right before he escapes on 
Buckbeak.  Mainly his statement that the people Harry loves will 
always be "right here" in Harry's heart.

What it *might* foreshadow:  This definitely foreshadows the death 
of Sirius in book 5 and Harry's subsequent realization [with Luna 
Lovegood's insight] that Sirius will always be there for him, only 
just out of sight, but never out of mind and heart.  As for book 6 
foreshadowing, it's been speculated on the main list that Harry's 
ability to love and be loved by others will ultimately defeat 
Voldemort.  I see no reason to disagree with that theory.  

10.  Ron's comments to Hermione beside the whomping willow about how 
his leg might need to be "chopped" because of the bite injury 
inflicted by dog!Sirius.  

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could Ron lose a leg in book 6?  Could 
Ron losing a leg be the only way Harry regains his position as 
Gryffindor seeker?  [just kidding]  :)

11.  The blatant emphasis on Harry's eyes resembling Lily's eyes as 
pointed out by both Lupin and Sirius.  Not a new foreshadowing, by 
any means, but more emphasized in this movie than ever before.

What it *might* foreshadow:  Could Harry's eyes indicate that Harry, 
while outwardly appearing to be like his dad (overall resemblence, 
knack for getting into trouble, skill at Quidditch, etc.), is 
actually much more like his mother.  And that being like his mother 
more than his father saves him from Voldemort or some other villian 
in book 6?  Is there something significant about Lily's eyes with 
regards to performing magic that has yet to be explained, but 
ultimately means that Harry has a weakness/strength because of those 
eyes.  Could Harry having his mother's eyes mean that someone we've 
previously not met steps forward in book 6 to claim him as a 
relative only because this person recognizes Lily's eyes?  This 
seems unlikely as James and Lily were well known after Harry 
Potter's unexpected defeat of Voldemort the night Lily and James 
died, but you never know - the new person could be a muggle 
unfamiliar with Harry Potter's fame in the Wizarding World.  Though 
Petunia and Dumbledore would have known about them for sure, which 
makes the last speculation very unlikely.   

If I think of more, I'll put them in another post.  Speculate away!
