The green eyes indicate a power, like parseltongue. Dumbledore knows, 
and is waiting for Harry to show if he's inherited it.

Predictions : 
Prof. Sprout or Madam Pince or Prof. Trelawney will be killed by the 
D.E.s, as a non-combatant.
Ginny and Harry will get together, but it won't work out to be 
romantic, and they'll part friends. Got to have Ginny in the final 
battle!
Ron will ask Hermione out, and that won't be successful either.
Molly or Arthur Weasley will die, returning Percy to his senses and 
the family fold.
There will be a battle at Hogwarts.

Cheers. AmanitaMuscaria, counting off the days.
