Book 7 Speculation

[neotoma]

Following up to ellen_fremedon's post on Tarot and HBP, I have a suspicion -- Book 7 will be represented by two cards...

Judgement and Death

We've already seen a whole reading of Swords in HBP when Trelawney is muttering to herself -- spades are Swords, and they are not a happy suite -- and she says she kept coming up with the Tower. Now, the Tower is disaster and the Swords are mostly ill-omens and hard decisions. That sums up HBP very well.

Judgement is not just judgement and the end of things but also renewal and change. The card itself often depicts the dead rising from their graves.

Death is not literal death, but transformation and change.

Combine these two cards with the ones in HBP, and you have a reading that indicates cataclysmic change, with renewal and hope at the end.

Whatever Harry will do in Book 7, it will tear down the Wizarding World, and leave devastation and new growth in its wake.

Well, if this reading is Harry's, or Snape's question ABOUT Harry, it doesn't matter if the cards are representing the internal or the external. Anything that happens to Harry happens to the Wizarding World, at this point.
