find a way to live, as the prophecy stated by Professor Trelawney suggests, that neither Harry or Voldemort can live, while both are alive. Lord Voldemort will be ultimately destroyed, and Harry will rise from the ashes, like a phoenix.

The recurring themes of the phoenix suggest, that Harry will return, rising from the dead, just as the phoenix does. Harry's resurrection would also tie into the nearly biblical themes in this series. Harry will likely take solace that his dead loved ones, are living on another plain beyond death and know peace. Harry needs to make peace with himself, before he can confront the Dark Lord, with the calm and resolve that is required.

Snape will be able to plant himself that much closer to Voldemort in a position of power to protect and assist Harry in the end.

Snape's belief that he owed Harry a life debt, went above and beyond the events of the first book, when Snape interfered with Quirrel's attack during the Quidditch match. Snape might in fact be killed by either Harry, or Wormtail. Harry will learn, too late, that Snape was actually on his side. This revelation will sober
