OK, although I have always been a believer in Harry Horcrux, I can 
think of an alternative. It is basically a reworking of a post I sent 
many moons ago. I will attempt to set the scene!!

The actual thought that started this theory was 'Is there a magical 
equivalent of Blood Brothers'.

>From the Sorting Hat in OOTP, we know that Gryffindor and Slytherin 
were the best of friends.

'Blood' is a huge thematic theme throughout the HP series.

What if Godric & Slytherin had made a magical blood pact, that would 
ensure that they would protect one another. Would this be passed to 
the descendents?

Is Harry a descendent of Gryffindor? If so, then Voldemort had 
definitely killed one Gryffindor that night and maybe had activated 
this magical pact in some way. Perhaps Lily's sacrifice coupled with 
this ancient pact gave Harry an extremely powerful shield that 
repelled the AK. Perhaps the pact was worded in such a way, that if 
either attempted to mortally wound the other, there would be some 
kind of power transference??

Believe me, I can pick many holes in this myself, but some variation 
of this Blood Pact, is what gives Harry many of Voldemort's powers!!

Ohh, hang on. Just thought of something else. Will post it in another 
post!!
