Pleasure talking to you, too.
What I wrote about blood vulnerability comes from what I'm currently 
reading. You are right when you say that Harry enriched our lives; 
thanks to him (let's say he's a real kid
) I rediscovered Alchemy. I 
had started studying it when I was reading Calderon's plays, but 
Sigismundo was not as touching as Harry
 Alchemy says things 
like "mercury contains its sulphur, and that there's no sulphur 
without its mercury". What do we see in our HP books, now?  Harry 
was reborn from Voldemort, and Voldemort was reborn from Harry. 
Harry was born from James, and the Prong Patronus was born from 
Harry. In OotP, Ron and Hermione care for Harry as if he was their 
child, and then Harry teaches them DADA as if they were his 
children
 And I think we can find out many other examples 
of "alchemical reciprocity" in the series. "What is above is like 
what is below, and what is below is like what is above, to create 
the miracle of a single work"; so says the Table of Emerald, and I 
think that JKR perfectly understood the message.

Amicalement,

Iris
