Trelawney's Prediction.
After reading the day of Voldemort's birth in HBP, Chapter thirteen:
"That's right," said Mrs. Cole, helping herself to more gin. "I remember it
clear as anything, because I'd just started here myself. New Year's Eve and
bitter cold, snowing, you know. Nasty night. And this girl, not much older
than I was myself at the time, came staggering up the front steps. Well, she
wasn't the first. We took her in, and she had the baby within the hour. And
she was dead in another hour."
Makes this prediction from GoF, Chapter thirteen, more
interesting:
"Saturn, dear, the planet Saturn!" said Professor Trelawney, sounding
definitely irritated that Harry wasn't riveted by this news. "I was saying
that Saturn was surely in a position of power in the heavens at the moment
of your birth. ... Your dark hair ... your mean stature ... tragic losses so
young in life... I think I am right in saying, my dear, that you were born
in midwinter?"
Phil, who thinks she is more correct in her predictions than wrong.
