Here is a list of my predictions for Books 6 & 7, with my % of certainty
next to each one. I explain my reason for each prediction underneath. I
would very much like to invite other members to make a list like this.

1. Harry will liberate his emotional ego in book 6. 100%

2. Harry will liberate his consciousness ego in book 7. 100%

3. Harry will pass through the Gate of Saturn in book 7. 100%

4. Ron and Hermione will die by decapitation but will live on or live again
in Harry through the alchemical process. 90%

5. Harry will enter the Temple of Venus (the Room with the mysterious force
in the MoM). 99%

6. Harry will take Hagrid's place at the end of book 7. 75%

7. Harry will not have to kill Voldemort by a deliberate act. 100%

8. Voldemort will dissipate like an expired Patronus through an act of love
by Harry. 99%

9. Voldemort will tempt Harry before Harry finally wins the battle. 90%
Three temptations: 25%

1. Harry will liberate his emotional ego in book 6. 
We are now 5/7 through the journey. So far the story has followed EXACTLY
the 7 steps of liberation as symbolised in the Alchemical Wedding of
Christian Rosycross in the ascent of the 9 candidates of the seven floors in
the Tower of Olympus. In post 55793 in April 2003 I predicted, on this
basis, that Harry would liberate his mental ego in book 5. This is exactly
what happened. Voldemort was driven out of Harry's mind by his love for
Sirius. Jo has already stated that in book 6 Harry will need to control his
emotions. This I think is a clue in that direction.

2. Harry will liberate his consciousness ego in book 7.
The same reason as for No. 1. 

I will just explain what I mean by the threefold ego. The mental ego is
obviously situated in the head and is the voice of reason that speaks to the
central consciousness. The Emotional ego is the voice of the heart that
speaks to the central consciousness. The consciousness ego is the central
consciousness situated just behind the forehead between the eyebrows. Going
through life we are constantly addressed by the head and the heart, and the
central consciousness makes the choice of which voice to listen to. Some
people listen more to the voice of the head, others to the voice of the
heart, and others again spend their lives listening to both and living in
inner conflict. When our Voldemort is driven out of our head it means our
head is free from evil and so the voice of reason will be pure and
unselfish. When he is driven from the heart this means no feelings of
selfishness will ever speak to us again. When the consciousness ego is
liberated from Voldemort it is set free from all the restrictions of time
and space. It is reborn as an omniscient consciousness linked always to the
great Architect of the Universe. There is no separation between Him and Man
and this consciousness is a progress from unimaginable glory to ever
intenser, ever more sublime, ever more rapturous, totally selfless glory. In
Buddhism this is called the enlightenment. In Christianity it is the moment
the dove landed on Jesus after his baptism by John. In the Corpus Hermeticum
this is the voice of Pymander speaking to Hermes. The Rosicrucians call it
the Mercury Initiation.

3. Harry will pass through the Gate of Saturn in book 7.
Before the new consciousness can be born the old one has to "die". This is
not a real death in the sense that there is a gap between the old and the
new consciousness. The old three-dimensional consciousness is swallowed up
by the new, as it were. Death is swallowed up by victory. A candle flame
merges into the sun. The flame has died yet lives on forever in the mighty
radiations of the sun. Harry will pass though the archway with the veil and
return victorious. I think it is possible that he will pass though "hell",
as did Jesus after the crucifixion. I'd give that one 80%. What will
motivate Harry to go through the archway I don't know, but I agree with a
lot of members that it could be Sirius.

4. Ron and Hermione will die by decapitation but will live on or live again
in Harry through the alchemical process.
Decapitation plays in important role in the Alchemical Wedding, in the New
Testament (John the Baptist) and in Harry Potter (Buckbeak, parrot &
herring). In the Alchemical Wedding the prince and princess are decapitated
along with 4 other kings and queens and their bodies, together with the head
of the executioner, used in a process of dissolution, crystallisation,
rebirth, another decapitation, burning and another rebirth, to create two
new bodies of unsurpassable beauty. I have recently written post 104372 on
the Half Blood Prince. I think that somehow Ron and Hermione will live on in
Harry after his return through the Gate of Saturn. I suspect the statement
"those that love us never truly leave us" is a clue. The three of them
together will form a Half Blood Prince, though whether that's the one meant
by the title of book 6 I don't know.

5. Harry will enter the Temple of Venus (the Room with the mysterious force
in the MoM). 
Just like Christian Rosycross (note the first name please) Harry will enter
the forbidden room. What he will see there I don't know, but I suspect that
he will be 'punished' like CRC, who saw Venus lying asleep on a bed. His
page lifted the blankets and CRC saw her naked. The gatekeeper through
astrological observation became aware of this and at the end of the story he
accused CRC of this. CRC was punished by having to become gatekeeper,
although "coming home". This is a mysterious part of the AW. If we take this
literally it sounds like seeing "Love" is a crime punishable by a kind of
house arrest. However we should keep in mind that this is divine humour. The
cloakship of gatekeeper is accepted voluntarily. The idea of "punishment"
just draws our attention to the inconceivably great sacrifice made by a
Master of Compassion when he is faced with two choices: return home to the
loving arms of the Father or stay behind in the fallen universe to lead
seekers to the homeward journey. Of course compassion wins! Who, who's heart
is liberated from Voldemort, would not choose to stay behind and guide his
prodigal brothers and sisters to Platform 9 to enable them to begin the 7
years' journey to liberation from suffering and death? This takes us to:

6. Harry will take Hagrid's place at the end of book 7.
Hagrid is the Keeper of the Keys and was the one who introduced Harry to the
Magical World. He gave Harry the letter of invitation and took him (almost)
to platform 9. As a punishment (implicitly or explicitly) Harry will take
Hagrid's place after his defeat of Voldemort, the death of his friends and
all the exciting adventures of the past seven years. I guess it's a kind of
anticlimax, but how symmetrical, how ironic, and yet how sublime. The
greatest of them all, He who Defeated the Dark Lord, is rewarded with the
humblest job of all. The AW ends with the announcement that two pages are
missing,  "...and he, the author hereof, whereas he imagined he must be
guardian of the gate in the morning, has come home." As Harry has always
considered Hogwarts his real home this will be poignantly true for him. I
can imagine it now: "First years this way!", Harry bellowed, as the new
students gaped at his scar....

What will happen to Hagrid? He will obviously resume the journey that was
interrupted previously. I guess Jo will send him through the archway. It's
obvious that his progress as a wizard was hindered by being gatekeeper. This
points to the sacrifice made by those who take on this role. Someone asked
whether Harry's wand will be broken. I'd give that 50%.

7. Harry will not have to kill Voldemort by a deliberate act.
I have covered this in my essay. A person whose heart is liberated is just
not capable of killing. It's just not possible. No way, no option, can't do,
sorry. What happens when evil confronts Good is that Good does not enter
into conflict. It steps back and fills the vacated space with Love. That's a
Force, not a warm fuzzy feeling. As we know, Voldemort can't stand this
Force and whatever part of him is evil will simply dissipate, hence:

8. Voldemort will dissipate like an expired Patronus through an act of love
or compassion by Harry. 
If there is any basic goodness (Tom Riddle?) that will have a chance to
start again. 

9. Voldemort will tempt Harry before Harry finally wins the battle. (Three
times?)

Voldemort will confront Harry will all his (Voldemort's) greatness and make
promises which Harry will find hard to resist at first. Harry could possibly
be very tired and demoralised by the loss of his friends, or other terrible
ordeals. 

This final temptation is inevitable for anyone going the Path of Liberation.
The evil in us, which has grown to gigantic proportions during our countless
incarnations in this vale of tears, is faced with "to be or not to be" in
the final stage of liberation. It is driven into a corner and is faced with
extinction. Voldemort's only hope is to tempt the Divine in us to subject
itself to him with promises of the fulfilment of all our dreams and desires
we'd forgotten we had. In the New Testament, of course, this is described as
the three temptations in the desert. In the AW three men try to pull down
CRC's scale as his virtues are being weighed. The Buddha was also tempted -
by Mara (bitterness). I'm only 25% certain that it will be three times
because Jo might think that's a bit too close to the Bible. But then again
after Book 7 she might not care that people can finally see the true core
and essence of what Harry Potter is really all about.

I received an email recently from a member of the group who said that if I
occasionally said "I don't know" I might get more responses. Well I can
assure you all that what I don't know would fill an encyclopedia as long as
the Great Wall of China, but that would be very boring to read. However I
hope there's enough doubt left in my predictions for you to comment on them.
And you all have my permission to laugh if I'm proven wrong! It's still been
fun to predict this.
