Hope I'm not going over old ground with this but I've searched and
can't find anything on the subject. I've been reading the posts on
Ron=Dumbledore and Percy=Dumbledore by going back in time and
wondered if there might be any tie-in with Dumbledore sharing the
characteristics of the Phoenix.
Dumbledore is said to be looking tired and old as the Phoenix does
before it regenerates, his originally red hair echoes the colours of
the bird and in Chamber of Secrets Dumbledore is represented by the
phoenix in the battle against the basilisk.
Could these, and other instances, be pointers to Dumbledore's
regeneration and 'circular life' by one of the Weasley brothers going
back in time to be Dumbledore. Or possibly some other sort of
immortality for him.
Biggest problem I can see with Ron=Dumbledore theory is that if he
knew what would happen in advance he could have done more to warn
Harry of the dangers facing him, although I suppose he would also
have known that things would turn out ok.
I get very frustrated with the lack of communication between all the
characters, however I guess if they all sat down and had a good chat
then the books would be alot shorter.
