Hi All!
Long time, no post..sorry for the big snip. Just dipping my toe in
for a quick thought.
I think the lesson Harry must learn in his search for the Horcruxes is
the message that JKR has been feeding her readers since GOF (or maybe
earlier?). That is unity. In GOF, its "inter-school" unity and, in
later books, it becomes "intra-school" unity meaning that the four
houses must come together in order to defeat LV. I think that is why
each Horcrux represents each of the houses in Hogwarts. Harry must
seek out each "house" (as represented by the Horcruxes) and unite
them. I think that may actually be the over-arching theme of all 7
books; we're all in this togther.
With my two cents in, I'm jumping out of the pool! Just want to thank
everyone on this list for some really thought provoking stuff!
