Here is another thought about Horcruxes. We know that JKR said the
4 houses represent the 4 elements. Gryffindor= Fire, Ravenclaw=
Air, Hufflepuff= Earth and Slytherin= Water.
I have been reading a history of Wicca and came across this
interesting tidbit of information. In the English tradition the
colors for the 4 elements are different than they are in other
places. They are the same as what JKR has for the 4 houses. That is:
Fire is red, Air is blue, Earth is brown/yellow and Water is green.
So there we have the basics for the elements. According to my
reading the ancient Greeks said 5 elements are the basis for all
life. The 5th element that holds the other 4 together was Love or
Spirit.
With all of this in mind: According to DD, we know that LV did not
get an item from Gryffindor to make a horcrux. I wonder if this is
more significant than we think. If all 4 elements must work
together (remember the Sorting Hat's song) and the 5th element that
binds them is Love
and when all four houses are working as one,
this is a positive thing. .. What I am wondering is this: If LV
were to get something from all 4 houses what would the synergist
effect be? I think that there may be something very important about
his having a part of his soul in an object from each of the houses.
Remember each of the objects so far also have a special powerful
magic of their own, associated with the founder of that house.
What would happen if each of these powerful magical objects also had
the soul of LV in them? Now I am not a Lord of the Rings fan. Saw
the movies and that is all. But wasn't there something there about a
number of rings and the "one ring to bind them all" or something?
Maybe a LOR fans can help here. Anyway what I am getting at is that
maybe what we have is something like this. If LV can get the
Gryffindor item and make a horcrux of it, *something* will happen.
Maybe DD was wrong, maybe Nagini is not a horcrux and LV is still
trying to get that last one, so he can finally do the spell that
unites all of the elements of the world and place them under his
rule. This might be a spell that can not be broken. It would
certainly explain the high stakes that are involved in defeating
LV. He is not just another bad wizard. He is trying to be the
Darkest Wizard of them all. The one to rule the world forever.
>From this perspective it looks very, very dark indeed.
