I wonder if Lily knew that her death was inevitable and preplanned 
her sacrifice? Maybe she planned to protect Harry by splitting her 
soul in half so that she could remain inside Harry and protect
him. (Didn't Dumbledore mention that he only knew of one wizard who 
actually split their soul in half? Maybe he meant Lily?) Maybe Lily 
performed the horcrux ritual in advance so that when Voldemort 
attempted to kill Harry she would sacrifice herself into Harry, while 
also causing Voldemort's destruction.

Juli: Do you really think Lily would have commited murder? If she did 
(which I doubt), who do you think was her victim?


vmonte: 
Maybe Lily did something that was never done before. Maybe she 
created a horcrux from her own sacrifice--her own death! It would be 
kind of cool if Lily foiled Voldemort using his own methods--but with 
a twist.
Voldemort is pretty stupid. During GoF he performed a ritual in which 
he passed Lily's protection into himself. Maybe he took in a piece of 
her soul.
