And hundreds more!!! Time travel, Harry a Horcrux, Azkaban, Dragons... you'll find it every possible idea there!

Speculation is fun, and don't listen to people who say that JK Rowling doesn't like her fans to theorize. Theorizing is different than spoiling.

Answer 2

well, about Dumbledore
in the 6th book he turned into a phoenix, aren't phoenixes reborn?
I'm not sure he is actually dead, he gave up way to easily in th 6th book, how is it possible that Snape would kill someone as powerful as Dumbledore, someone Voldemort himself fears?
Then, J.K. Rowling has afirmed she'll be killing off two characters.
As for Bill Weasleys marriage, definitely a huge fight about to happen.
Neville won't play such a big part (although he'll probably get a courage demonstration scene), J.K Rowling also said that he would have no part in the prophecy aspect, as it was Harry that was chosen.
Also, I'm pretty sure Harry Potter dies. If JKR doesn't kill him off she'll never escape being asked to do another part, about Harry's life as an auror and all that. And it does not seem that she wants that, she basicaly said she's done with it.
Lets not also forget that the mirror sirius gave harry has yet to be useful.
Snape, I think he can still prove to be good after all. Who's to say that the whole killing dumbledore thing wasn't just an act? Didn't it all seem just a little to easy?
I'm also quite sure Percy will come to his senses, or he'll have no choice when he sees Voldemort is truly back, either way.
That's all the speculation for now.
I could go on, but, typing is quite limiting.

Answer 3

We wil know what really happens when the book comes out in July, but this is my theory:

I think that Harry will meet someone that will help him destroy the Horcruxes. They end up destroying all the Horcruxes except the last one which is still in Voldemort's body. Along the journey, Harry finds out thatthe guy is actually a Death Eater. So Harry kills him. Then Harry sets out to destroy the last Horcrux in Voldemort and since the other guy was working for Voldemort, Voldemort already knows that Harry is coming to destroy him, so he decides to wait for Harry. When Harry sets out to kill Voldemort, what he doesn't know is that his friends, Ginny, Hermione, Ron, Luna, and Neville, are actually following him incase Harry might need their help. Harry ends up finding Voldemort in the same cave that Harry and Dumbledore went the past year. When Voldemort sees Harry he seems to be pleased. Harry sees at least a dozen of other Death Eaters there. Vldemort tells them that he just wants them to stay there and to not to interfere because he wants to be the one that kills the famous Harry Potter. Soon the battle begins. Out of nowhere comes Harrry's friends. Once the Deeth Eaters see them, they start throwing spells at the teenagers. Nobody knows how a couple teenage wizards defeated at least a dozen adult wizards that know dark magic. But while the others were fighting the Death Eaters, Voldemort sends a killing spell directly at Harry which him right on the chest because Harry was so surprised to see his friends there, that he didn't see it coming toward him. Ginny sees that Harry is laying motionless on the floor of the cave, that suddenly she just starts throwing all kinds spells incuding the killing spell at Voldemort. He justs laughs and dodges the spells. Then Voldemort sends a killing curse at Ginny which hits her squarely in the stomach. Everybody is so shocked that she's dead that Neville justs gets so ANGRY, because he secretly loved Ginny, that he just starts sending the killing curse right after the other. Finally one of them hits Voldemort right where his heart should be. H eflys backwads and hits the cave wall. Soon Neville starts over Ginny's dead body.

THE END

Answer 4

For better or worse, here are my ideas:

1. Harry is not a horcrux!
This idea makes no sense in light of the prophesy for one, and why would Voldemort put part of his soul into someone he might have to fight anyway. If he kills Harry, he's wasted part of his soul. Also, I reject the idea that Harry became a horcrux as an unintentional byproduct of the rebounding of Voldemort's killing curse. The byproduct is known and is the empathic bound between the two, and that's all, IMHO.

Remember too that all the horcruxes have to be destroyed before Voldemort is vulnerable to death. If Harry is a horcrux, then Harry must die first, then Voldemort. So it would mean that Harry would have to loose a killing curse at Voldemort just after Voldemort loosed a killing curse against him--that is very tricky timing!.

I take the prophecy to mean that vanquishing Voldemort it Harry's job--no chance that Voldemort becomes vulnerable with a Harry sacrifice and with Harry dead, someone else kills Voldemort. Voldemort is too powerful for others to kill, and I believe Harry has something about him that will enable him to finish the job.

2. Pettigrew still has a debt to Harry and that debt will be collected upon.

3. Neville will find his strength and confidence.

4. Bill Weasley's marriage will be the scene of a big fight, and maybe the death of one of the major characters.

5. Draco Malfoy will not be a major factor, unless he admits to himself that he is in over his head with the Deatheaters and turns coat.

6. We will find out that Harry is Dumbledore's heir, and among the things he gets is the pensieve and a bunch of very instructive memories.

7. About Deaths: First, we are assuming that either Harry or Voldemort dies. I believe that Harry lives, because it is a children's/YA series after all and the central character of such series never die, JKR will not buck that canon. Otherwise: My handicapping, in order of likelihood (IMHO):

Ron, Percy, Pettigrew, Fred/George, Neville, Lupin, Hagrid, Hermione, Petunia, Dudley, Tonks, Mr./Mrs. Weasley, Malfoy, Ginny, Bill, Fleur, Luna, Snape.

8. Romances: At the end of DH, i foresee the following couples (assuming all of them survive): Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione, Neville/Luna, Lupin/Tonks (and I think the last two could very well be married by the end of the book).

9. Finally, about Snape:
Snape is Snape. He is beyond the sort of simplistic categorization as "good" or "evil", IMHO. I do believe he is not as evil as he appeared at the end of HBP. It would take too much space to really go into this in detail, but consider this:

It is well known that Snape played the double-agent prior to the death of Harry's parents, and there is no reason to believe he wasn't still a double agent on the anti-Voldemort side. Why then did he bind himself to the success of Draco's mission and then actually kill Dumbledore?
My answer: Dumbledore knew that destroying Slytherin's ring had fatally wounded him and Snape knew so too. Therefore he allowed himself to be bound to Dumbledore"s death, a death he knew was imminent and against which he knew Dumbeldore had taken precautions to ensure that his death would not derail the anti-Voldemort movement.

Now, on the other hand, if Snape has turned coats; why did he not kill Harry* or disable him and take him helpless to Voldemort? JKR made it clear that Harry is no match for Snape as a wizard (yet). If you look at Snapes "taunts" at Harry and put them into anyone else's mouth, they're very good advice on what Harry needs yet to learn to fight strong adult wizards on anything like equal terms.
My answer is that Dumbledore at some point shortly after Harry was orphaned made Snape take an unbreakable vow to protect Harry. This fits in perfectly with Snape's actions toward Harry in the books thus far. Yes, Snape is a mean SOB to Harry, but that is Snape's personality, and he didn't vow to be nice to Harry after all.

My conclusion is that in Book Seven, Snape will act covertly and eventually overtly to aid Harry, that he will likely live, and that Harry will be just as in the dark over Snape's motivations as when Harry entered Hogwarts. (BTW, the above is why I don't think Harry will die. If I'm right, then Snape dies too if Harry dies, and Snape is the ultimate survivor).

*My reading of the prophecy is that there is no requirement that either has to directly kill the other, just that one no longer lives, so I think Snape certainly could have killed Harry and talked his way out of it afterwards.
