The above are two different predictions.  First she says Harry must have 
been born in mid-winter, then, later, having been corrected, she says people 
born in July are in great danger.

I think Harry should have let her keep thinking he was a midwinter baby and 
then broken it to her at the end of the year that all her astrological 
predictions of disaster for those born under the baleful influence of Saturn 
were irrelevant.

But we were dragons.  We were =supposed= to be cruel,
cunning, heartless, and terrible.  But this much I can
tell you . . . we never burned and tortured and ripped
one another apart and called it morality.
