Order of the Phoenix

[Simon Biber]

No: HPFGUIDX 7670

blind speculation:
I have been thinking of the Order as a collection of people associated with
the Phoenix. We saw in PoA that Harry is capable of calling Fawkes in a time
of need. This means he is a member of the Order of the Phoenix. I would
assume Dumbledore is also in the Order (a respected member, if he is allowed
to keep one as a pet). Perhaps the book could involve convincing more
Phoenix to be involved in the fight against Voldemort. Perhaps we will see
Fawkes undergoing a rebirth during book five. Dumbledore says it is a sight
to behold.

Perhaps the Marauders were also members of this Order.

Who is the DADA teacher? Will it finally be Snape's turn? Maybe that's left
for the last book. Now is the time to get Harry's cohort well trained in
DADA; they will need it for the final showdown.

(unrelated: Why does Dumbledore not realise that anyone sorted into
Slytherin is bad and refuse them tuition?)

Simon.
