The Long and Winding Road Back to Godric's Hollow

There are several theorists ( and I'm sure you know who you 
are ;)) who postulate that the books reflect each other. 
Arguments about what reflects what have been a constant source 
of amusement for both theorists and the casual list reader, as 
well as analysts.

Recently the vapours have cleared somewhat to me and I have 
discerned a number of patterns in the HP books. These I 
apprehend should be apparent and some may say, why had I not 
considered this. Well I'll lay a little of it before you for 
your edification.

The clue this time, and my starting point for this post is this:

"So much of what happens in book six relates to book seven 
that I feel almost as though they are two halves of the same 
novel."

This was said prior to HBP's release and IMHO is a big clue 
to the overall structure of the books. Let me clarify that 
by saying my interpretation of the books was thereby knocked 
into a cocked hat, so to speak.

It led me to the title of this piece in that I formed the view 
that the story of Harry Potter is very much a circular one. It 
began due to what occurred at Godric's Hollow at the Potter's 
house on the night of 31st October - 1st November when Harry was 
just over a year old, and it will end there in DH with the final 
confrontation between he and Lord Voldemort. That is the view I 
have formed anyway. This is not to say that Harry will not visit
Godric's Hollow elsewhere in DH.

I posted a small piece on Dittany that got lost during the 
storm of book cover posts, it (my post) suggests that at some 
point Harry's scar will be healed using that plant. It is 
entitled Hats Off to JKR the Word Wizard and is uplist quite 
recently). If I am correct, then that post may explain the 
difference between the UK and the US covers recently revealed, 
in that Harry's cicatrix is not discernable on the US cover. 
My analysis of that is that the scene is of Harry and Voldemort 
behind the ruins of the Potter family home, but in front of a 
graveyard. The curved structure in the background that encloses
the scene may be supposed to represent an aqueduct, but it is 
unlike any aqueduct of which I have cognizance (they tend to be
straight and slightly tilted to take advantage of the force of 
gravity;)).

This is my proposal now. Due to lack of time earlier, having 
been engaged in certain other HP related and non HP related 
matters, I propose to leave it there for now and hope that 
others, in discussion, can build further on this, if desired. 
My expansion remains in my head for now :). Only other clue is 
that Book 1 = Books 6 + 7 together ;)

My initial clue is presented to you, there are others, I wonder 
if you can assist?

Goddlefrood, whose vapours are now misting over and becoming 
clouded once more ;)
