  On page 713 GOF Dumbledore asks Snape.  "you know what I must as 
you to do.If you are ready..if you are prepared." Was that question 
answered in OOP? 

  Did Snape return back into the death Eater fold in good graces? Or 
was it under probation? He's in meetings with The Order of the 
Phoenix with information, George confirms it. Pg.69 "Snape?" Harry 
asked "Is he here?" ..."Giving a report. Top secret." Siruis 
complains OOP pg.83 "Listening to Snapes' reports, having to take 
all his snide hints that he's out risking his life while I'm sat on 
my backside having a nice comfortable time.."

  Or is ithe is practicing Occlumency on Death Eater "friends" to 
get information for the order?

  was it he helped Dumbeldore bring the Order together? Pg.92 " 
Thanks to you, Dumbledore was able to recall the Order of the 
Phoenix about an hour after Voldermort returned" said Sirius."


  Or does it have to do with protecting the Phrophecy? Or preparing 
to try to teach Occumency to Harry, to keep the "secret weapon" out 
of Voldemort's hands?


  I think it was on of these four options, but I'm not sure which. 
Maybe it was something completely diffrent, that I missed. Does 
anyone have a opinion on what "If you are prepared" meant?

Sincerely,
