> Granny responds:  Thank you Dear, for reminding me of this 
scenario.  It struck me as VERY surreal at the time.  As you reminded 
us, "nothing was said about his episode of silliness".  That is, 
Madame Pomfrey concentrated strickly on softening whatever damage, 
scarring, had been done.  We're really left hanging, not even knowing 
whose brain it was that so aggressively attacked, or even why Ron in 
particular.  But, Ron did report seeing Uranus, ('Harry, we saw 
Uranus up close!' ) and from a little Astrology research, discovered 
the planet's significance: 
> 
> Uranus rules the sign Aquarius (anyone know Ron's Sign?) and is the 
planet of surprise and all that is unexpected. It also rules the 
future and all new technology -- all that has just been invented and 
all that is yet to come.
> Innovative, unpredictable, resourceful and experimental.  This 
planet also rules the breaking up of any established patterns or 
structures, creating sudden -- even radical  change.
>  Uranus can turn over anything traditional, conventional or 
orthodox in its path, which it deems no longer of value or having 
outlived its usefulness. This planet produces quick, liberating 
results.  Uranus is strongly objective, rather than emotional.  Since 
Uranus also holds sway over social change, it also regulates the 
global brotherhood of man and all humanitarian concerns.
> 
> This brings me back to my initial idea that Ron is a "sleeper"; and 
is to accomplish something of real significance.  However, as we see 
in canon, such an impending change would indeed produce 
trauma, "scarring" .  JKR threw in Uranus for some reason.

Ron was born in March, and so is a pisces, if that helps.

I thought perhaps someone had put the confundus charm on him - or 
perhaps a very powerful cheering charm - if you remember, Ron had to 
be led away  to calm down after Harry'd overdone the cheering charm 
on him in an exam.

But yes, the lack of explanation later does, if we interpret JKR's 
style, mean something more profound happened to him.
