Finwitch:

Yes, well...

A phoenix; it dies and is reborn.
Few wizards are able to tame one...

Could it be possible that, for example, one could, if gone trough in 
flesh, be 'reborn' (and moved back in time). For example, Sirius 
could have his next life as Stubby Boardman. Of course, he'd have to 
accept the very strict rule about not changing the past. However, 
after the moment Sirius Black went trough the Veil, Stubby Boardman 
is a free agent. He could, therefore, go and help Harry...

AND, someone who returns may not discuss what's going on in the 
beyond.

And er -- one could gain the phoenix in the beyond...

I think Padfoot would be gone, though... maybe switched for a Unicorn 
(the soul being purified in the beyond)?
