pentzouli :

I think that there are a lot to be revealed about these mysterious 
connections in the upcoming books. But apart from that, I have a few 
thoughts to contribute :

To your question about the Order's name, I don't think that it has 
so much to do with the loyalty its members show to Dumbledore, as to 
how the Order was regrouped. It would seem that it has risen from 
its ashes, like phoenixes do, with some old members, of course, but 
also with some new ones. From the picture that Moody shows to Harry, 
we can conclude that the Order suffered a huge amount of loss during 
the last time it was active. And now, at the time least expected, it 
has risen again, more organized, more aware than the last time.

As for Fawkes's connection to Harry, I have some remarks to make : 
the song that Harry hears during the duel with Voldemort in GoF 
sounded strange to me at first. How could possibly Harry hear 
Fawkes's song? Well, with a better reading of the chapter I realised 
that since Harry's and Voldemort's wands have Fawkes's feathers in 
them, and since the phoenix's song gives courage to the pure and 
fear to the evil, Harry would hear this song like it came from 
inside him (through the wand, which was attached to his hand). And 
it would certainly seem the most beautiful nusic to his ears...

I think that through all the references Dumbledore has made about 
Fawkes, and through the relationship that has been established 
between Harry and Fawkes, and since JKR has stated that Harry may 
have a different pet in the books to come(Kids BBC interview, answer 
to reporter Victor Greenstreet) maybe we are looking at Harry's 
future pet...

Thanks for reading this!
