I liked how the prophecy said that Harry and Voldermort had to kill each other, but it turned out that they were both keeping each other alive (Harry as the Horcrux, and Voldermort having Harry's blood). Kind of ironic.

[@RainOn2SunnyDay]

so if harry had struck first and killed voldemort, the protection would have ran out because harry would have killed voldemort along with the part of him inside baldy, but voldemort would still have his hocruxes, so that prophecy was accurate that one must die first

[@DeusVult-q3f]

Fan theories are far better and more logical than Rowling's love statement. It was good logic when he was child, but here it was over the top. I prefer that Harry was protected by Horcrux and owned Deathly Hollows. Since Rowling's logic makes 0 logical sense and dumps on her own creation. The wand of Voldemort simply betrays him and fails him and fails his spells.

[@MattandMatt101]

@@RainOn2SunnyDay in the forest Harry died but Voldemort got wounded so I’m assuming he killed the accidental horcrux in Harry but still had Harry’s blood in him so does that mean Harry had another chance of surviving and Voldemort last shot of staying alive was his snake?

I think the fact that the Elder Wand was loyal to Harry and not Tom also played some part in him survivivg the killing curse. It could still be the case of that the horcrux took the hit because the elder wand could not kill its master.

[@ripcartier]

lol

[@miranda8972]

wrong. a regular wand would not be able to kill its master as the power within the wand that fuels the casting of the spell comes from the master. If the master is dying, the wand will loose the magic with which to cast the spell. the only exception is the elder wand which was built without this flaw bc it was built by death himself and had this shifting loyalty.

[@choptscrued]

Lose*** Also, the master wand cannot kill its master, that's in the lore. A regular wand killing its master isn't even talked about.

[@Blinkers2007GameDev]

No it doesn’t really matter, if we follow the logic of the horcruxes and the feelings and how they affect people’s soul’s(lily protecting Harry with love etc) then I think it’s because there was another soul that needed to get destroyed first, thus leading to harry’s life getting speared. I don’t think it would’ve made a difference

[@MrDeflador]

I kinda love the Idea, that if Voldi would have used any other wand, Harry would be dead. But in the pursuit of ever greater power, he used the one wand, that was not able to kill Harry.

[@vahidmirkhani]

In the forrest, there were several things happening at the same time: 1 - The elder wand wouldn't act the way it should've. The cruciatus wasn't working anymore, Harry didn't feel pain while rising in the air, not because of the bloodspell. Bloodspell was present before, in the graveyard, and the curse was excruciating for Harry. But the wand Voldy was using back then was his, BEFORE the regurgitation of their wands and Harry's taking over Voldemort's wand. In the Forbideen Forrest, the wand had changed its allegiance and wasn't acting against Harry in slightest manner. 2 - The bloodspell in Voldemort's body. I think when Dumbledore says "while that enchantment survives, so do you", he does NOT mean that Harry lives as long as Voldemort does. He means as long as Voldemort lives, the enchantment protecting Harry from Voldemort, survives as well. Harry is mortal against others, not against Voldemort. 3 - When hit by the killing curse, the curse could act on TWO beings inside Harry (souls if you will) .... Harry & Voldemort's. Since the killing curse can kill a single being (you never see a killing curse bouncing off killing several people), the curse has to kill one of them. If Harry is killed ("damage beyond repair"), Voldemort's soul will die as well. But another way is to kill Voldemort's soul, and keep the container's soul alive. I think both (the wand assuming Harry as master, and Voldemort having Lily's protection in his body) played a role in the killing curse choosing the latter: destroying Voldemort's soul instead of taking Harry's life. I don't know if this makes sense or not. I always thought it's not a "single" thing that helped Harry survive.

[@RodrigoMAOEE]

[@nishatahmed6090]

I think that's Harry's perception of how he would go to heaven or stay back in the living world as a ghost, because Dumbledore said- "It is, as we say, your party" implying that it is Harry's imagination of how he would go to heaven- by taking a train. This imagination can also be a reference to the fact that Harry took the Hogwarts Express to go to Hogwarts, which felt to him like a heaven when compared to living with the Dursleys

@@johnhostetler2167 exactly in many ways, and I believe JK Rowling mentioned this in her own words, that Harry, unknowingly, had a reverse horcrux in Voldemort after he used his blood to revive himself. This allowed Lilly's Protective Charm to go into Voldemort, and act as a shred of goodness in him. however Voldemort chose to continue an evil path (not totally his fault, since he was conceived though a love potion and hence was never able to feel love) and still tried to kill Harry. In the Forbidden Forest, there were a few factors that made Voldy's killing curse attack his horocrux in harry, but the biggest one is Lilly's Protective Charm being in Voldemort, which means as Voldemort lived, Harry could not die. Now i am convinced this was JK Rowling's secret plot the who storyline: remember the prophesy saying "neither could die while the other lives?" and that Voldemort will "MARK" him as his equal" ? that along with the key detail mentioned by the OC saying how Dumbledore reacted positively when Harry told him how Voldemort used his blood, are key evidences that JK Rowling planned to have Voldemort bring his own downfall through Harry!!

[@ricedonut6567]

@@kanavwastaken The foreshadowing in the Goblet of Fire doesn't justify how it saved Harry from death. The blood used to resurrect Voldemort are of Harry's, the very same one with Lily's protection. If memory serves, it's effectiveness should of worn off the moment Harry came of age. As Harry's protection is gone, so should the one on Voldemort's veins. The Deathly Hallows has, and still makes more sense. The Wand to inflict death The Stone to reverse death The Cloak to evade death Together, they make one the master of death. And there's a reason why this fan theory was widely accepted by many despite it not being canon and debunked by Rowling herself. As you said, love had been the concurrent concept all throughout the books that I don't deem it necessary to reinforce it with the seventh book's title. Other than that, when it comes to the idea of love in the HP franchise, many people were too focused on Lily and Snape that they tend to forget to grasp the bigger picture, and that Harry, Dumbledore, and many other characters are able to express their love as well. The Deathly Hallows book still portrayed love through Harry's sacrifice in the hopes of not only protecting everyone, but also to destroy the Horcrux, all were from an act of love. It is also symbolic in a way, Harry mastering the Deathly Hallows kinda projects how love triumphs over death, or above all else in general, even magic.

So, when Lily sacrificed herself for Harry, she inadvertently placed the equivalent of a protection charm on him. But this charm had several caveats: The protection would only work so long as he was under the care of someone who shared Lily's blood, which is why he was made to live with Petunia. In addition, the protection would only last until Harry's sixteenth birthday. Not the sixteenth anniversary of Lily's sacrifice, but the actual day Harry turned 16. Later, Voldemort was reborn with Harry's blood, and therefore Lily's, inside of him. This somehow extended Lily's protection past his sixteenth birthday, and freed up the requirement for Harry to be under the care of the individual carrying Lily's blood. So, from Voldemort's reincarnation during Goblet of Fire until his defeat in Deathly Hallows, Harry was effectively immune from death and there were no stakes. For a less convoluted explanation, consider: Harry was, at this point, the master of the elder wand. When Voldemort struck him with the killing curse, it refused to kill its master and instead killed the part of Voldemort that lived inside of him. Same as in their final duel.

So is there any explanation as to why Lily's sacrificial protection, which is supposed to run out when he becomes an adult (17 in the WW), randomly just doesn't after Voldemort takes some blood? Should it not have just expired anyway?

[@schwubdiwuub]

I've been scrolling through the comments and was looking for the same explaination :( pls some one answer :(((

[@Bryan198026]

@@schwubdiwuub As I understand it, Lily's protection itself didn't expire. Even Dumbledore says in the Philosopher's Stone that, "love as powerful as your mother's for you, even though the person who loved us is gone, will give us some protection forever." You're forgetting, however, that Dumbledore also invoked a magic that I guess piggybacked off of Lily's sacrifice, meaning that even Voldemort couldn't touch Harry while he was wherever Petunia was. That's the part that was supposed to expire when Harry turned seventeen. Even Voldemort mentions in Goblet of Fire that "Dumbledore invoked an ancient magic to insure the boy's protection as long as he is in his relations' care."

[@damned0wl]

The protection ending when Harry turned 17 wasn't due to an "expiration date" on Lily's blood magic. It stayed in effect as long as Petunia was his guardian, which she ceased to be the moment he became an adult in the wizarding world. When Harry gave himself over in the Forbidden Forest, he put his life in Voldemort's hands, thus making someone with Lily's blood responsible for him again. If Voldemort had used the killing curse without Harry making that choice, Harry would've died.

I always thought that Harry didn’t die because he was the master of the Elder Wand at the time.

[@maureencali]

Dungus Glumbus I think in this channel's video about the Deathly Hallows, just as you've said, "the Elder Wand must always win DUELS for its owner," so the wand didn't kill its master when they DUELED after the scene at the forest. When Harry was in the forest, however, it wasn't a duel. He went there without an intent of wielding his wand at hand, but to willingly give up his life. Therefore, it wasn't technically a "duel".

If not, and if Lily’s blood running through Voldemort’s veins was enough to protect Harry, why wouldn’t the very existence of Petunia be enough to keep Harry safe?

I honestly think this is a huge overthinking. He didn’t die because he used the deathly hallow of resurrection. He didn’t use it to revive his family members, he just talked to them symbolically, which is why they’re still dead.

[@diddl03]

Actually, that’s what many people mistakenly think, but the resurrection stone didn’t have anything to do with it… J.K.Rowling once explained, how Harry came back to life: _Again, Voldemort violated deep laws of magic he did not understand, but there is more to it than that._ _Having taken Harry’s blood into himself, Voldemort is keeping alive Lily’s protective power over Harry. So Voldemort himself acts almost like a Horcrux for Harry - except that the power of Lily’s sacrifice is a positive force that not only continues to tether Harry to life, but gives Voldemort himself one last chance (Dumbledore refers to this last hope in chapter 35). Voldemort has unwittingly put a few drops of goodness back inside himself; if he had repented, he could have been healed more deeply than anyone would have supposed. But, of course, he refused to feel remorse._ _Voldemort is also using the Elder Wand - the wand that is really Harry’s. It does not work properly against its true owner; no curse Voldemort casts on Harry functions properly; neither the Cruciatus curse nor the Killing Curse. The Avada Kedavra curse, however, is so powerful that it does hurt Harry, and also succeeds in killing the part of him that is not truly him, in other words, the fragment of Voldemort’s own soul still clinging to his. The curse also disables Harry severely enough that he could have succumbed to death if he had chosen that path (again, Dumbledore says he has a choice whether or not to wake up). But Harry does decide to struggle back to consciousness, capitalises on Lily’s ‘escape route’, and pulls himself back to the realm of the living._ _It is important to state that I always saw these kinds of magic (the very deepest life and death issues) as essentially un-scientific; in other words, there is no “Elder Wand + Lily’s Blood = Assured Survival” formula. What count, ultimately, are Harry and Voldemort’s own choices. They have each been given certain weapons and safeguards, but the power of these objects and past happenings lie in how they are understood, and how they are used or enacted upon. Harry has a deeper and truer understanding of the meaning of the objects and past events, but his greatest powers, those that save him, are free will, courage and moral certainty._ So, you see; the resurrection-stone had in fact nothing to do with it. He couldn’t actually have anything to do with it either, because Resurrection stone does not actually bring back the dead. The stone doesn't reverse death, it gives the user a hollow imprint of someone's soul. It seems to be better than a ghost, but far less than a human as these imprints can only be seen by the user. Also, Harry couldn’t ressurect _himself_ with it, not even as a hollow imprint. So, you might ask now: „What was the purpose of the resurrection stone, if not to actually resurrect Harry?!“ I am going to try to explain this to you: In Deathly Hallows Chapter 34, Harry found out through the memories of Severus Snape that he himself was the last Horcrux, so he decided to sacrifice himself. On his way to the forbidden forest, where Voldemort and the deatheaters were, he gets to open the snitch and to use the resurrection stone. He uses it to temporarily „bring back“ shades of his parents, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin. Their presence was enough to give him the courage to keep going, and they remained with him until he made his way to where Voldemort was. Besides comforting him when he was terrified and hardening his resolve, their spectral form visible only to him acted as Patronus' to get past the Dementors allied with Voldemort that were inside the forest. So, the resurrection stone was not pointless, but actually very useful for Harry. Without the resurrection stone he probably couldn’t get to the point when he meets Voldemort in the forest, because he wouldn’t have been comforted and encouraged and he also wouldn’t get past the dementors. The reason why Dumbledore gave Harry the stone through the snitch is because Dumbledore actually planned Harry’s sacrifice from the beginning on (that’s why people criticize him, for basically seeing Harry as a „pig for slaughter“). And Dumbledore knew, that Harry would need some help. He knew, that Ron and Hermione would help him, such as the Weasleys, Minerva, and many other of his friends. But they would never encourage him, to sacrifice himself. So Dumbledore gave him the snitch with the resurrection stone in it, as he was sure, that those who already died can encourage and accompany him in this particular moment. I hope you could understand that🙈 Sorry for the long text…😅 Have a blessed day 🙋‍♀️☺️

[@dragonstouch1042]

No or not should be somewhere between them

[@129das]

That is just stupid

[@jxristop]

Love D’Mort… Ima head out

[@tubebammy]

“Lily’s love protected Harry from Voldemort” Doesn’t seen too far fetched.

[@MrCrusher74]

Consider my mind blown! I really hung on to the theory that death was pulling the strings as he was affronted by Voldemort's use of horcruxs to escape him, and that's why Harry was able to return from death. I think this explanation works really well too though and you made a really convincing argument for it.

[@cecil2742]

Ooo I like your theory a lot! That would've been cool if at the end we find out it was death all along trying to get his hallows back.

[@daisyparsons9034]

Do his friends realise that Harry put a protection on them? And did Lilly potter ever realise that she saved Harry’s life?

[@danuk2136]

I also would like to know this

[@SomeInterestingName]

Well she was a bit dead, so no.

[@danuk2136]

Im guessing when your a witch or wizard you can perform magic without even realising it, lily knew what was going to happen, she knew that she wasn't going to stand aside, im guessing love is the reason Harry was protected and lily probably didn't know it would actually work

[@indy_go_blue6048]

Depends on how you see interaction with those who've gone before us. Lilly (and James et al) can't be brought back to life, but it doesn't mean they can't share awareness if Divine permission is granted to them. IMO the vision of Erised was no more than wishful thinking on Harry's part but the dead did seem to consciously interact with Harry both in the cemetery and in the forest; also Harry interacted with the spirit of Dumbledore after his own "death." I can't recall where Dumbledore said the death was another adventure (I know Gandalf did, lol) but to answer your second question, I'm sure she did. As Jesus said, paraphrasing, blessed is he who gives his life for another.

[@PoonamSingh-hb7tm]

Idk about lily but harry had announced in the book that he accidentally put a protection on his allies by willingly dying.

[@elliesofia9]

The power of Sacrifice**, every time there's a magic concept in a story there will be powerful spells linked to sacrifice .

[@cameronspalding9792]

So Voldemort taking Harry’s blood was a double edge sword, it would allow him to harm Harry, but it wouldn’t let him kill Harry

[@diddl03]

Correct

[@blakedean904]

Theories that make way more sense than what is cannon. 1. Harry is the true owner of all the deathly Hallows making him the master of death 2. The elder wand would not kill it's own master and so didn't kill harry but the part of harry that was Voldemort 3. Harry used the resurrection stone on himself before being killed. I don't like what Rawling says is cannon because it makes the whole "we need the blood of harry so Voldemort can actually deal with him" completely redundant. If Dumbledore knew all of this why did we have to scheme and hide and so many people have to die? Why not send 14 year old harry to kill Voldemort? Voldemort can't defeat harry EVER due to sharing blood. It just makes the whole war pointless when this could have been taken care of as soon as it started. Harry had no reason to fear.

[@RexonaGirlDance1234]

Wow that's actually a really good point!!!

[@IZn0g0uDatAll]

This whole love spell thing is the weakest part of the saga to be honest. It makes no sense and is not consistent with anything.

[@muhammadzeagham4092]

it's possibility that the fact Harry will not die because Voldemort had his blood was a guess Dumbledor himself told Harry after Harry was hit by killing curse that most things he did was a guess work so he couldn't just take the risk Voldemort could touch him now and dumbledor was t sure of Voldemort created horvroxes It was revealed he guessed when Harry told him that Tom riddle appeared out of diary but not sure and of he did then howsmy That is why he forced Harry to get memory from Slughorm He destroyed ring but again the only reason could be that he was guessing it's horcrox So if he wasn't sure about horcrox and blood protector why risk Harry's life since Voldemort could touch him now

[@aris3299]

why should he sent a 14 yo harry fight with voldemort?the fact that he can't kill him doesn't mean that a deatheater can't

[@nikkapineda9853]

Because Voldemort cant just fucking killed by Harry so easily. There are 7 hocruxes cant u see

Thank you! I was rereading the books and after the part where they explained that his protection was lifted once Harry no longer called the Dursleys place home , I needed this explanation to understand how he survived.

I loved the "Master of Death" theory more because that makes sense clearly.

[@jozefhrin2034]

yes, for me too. But it would not explain why would horcrux in harry die, when harry was saved by deathly hallows

I actually really loved it when the books said that the Elder Wand didn't want to kill Harry (because he is the Wand owner) but instead it turned around and killed Voldemort

[@timmason7430]

The wand, as Tom started the killing curse, left his hand, turned in mid air and said "No". Wand then crept backwards towards it's rightful master and lay comfortably in Harry's hand.
