What is the big deal with the prophecy in Harry Potter - Order of the Phoenix?

"The big deal" is that it's what prompted Voldemort to go after Harry in the first place. The prophecy speaks of an enemy with powers to match the Dark Lord's -- that's Harry. Voldemort attacked Harry because of the prophecy, because he believed that the person of whom the prophecy spoke was his one and only threat. No prophecy=no Harry Potter books. ;)

What was the prophecy in Harry Potter the half-blood prince?

The Harry Potter prophecy can be found on pg. 841 of Harry Potter and the order of the phoenix and basically says that a child will be born at the end of July to parents who defeated lord voldemort 3 times, voldemort will mark that child as his equal, but the child will have a power that voldemort doesn't, and "And either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives."- Professor Trelawney. the prophecy can apply to either Harry or Neville Longbottom but as Voldemort chose Harry by trying to kill him it means Harry.


Why is Harry Potter a wizard?

Harry Potter is the chosen one in the Half Blood Prince because of the prophecy that Trelawny had given Dumbledore when The First War was going on. Snape was listening outside the door and heard part of it. He told Voldemort the bit he heard and Voldemort hunted down the Potter family, killing Lily and James and "killing" himself, when the curse rebounded off Harry. In the prophecy, it mentioned a boy that was born at the end of July and how one shall die at the hand of the other. That neither could live while the other survived. Harry was born on July 31st and basically either Harry had to kill Voldemort or Voldemort had to kill Harry.

What is Harry Potter's life story?

Harry Potter is born July 31, 1980 in Godrics Hallow, England. Lord Voldemort hears of a prophecy that a boy born at the end of July will have special powers over the Dark Lord, and Voldemort sets out to find them. Harry and his parents are protected by the Fidelius Charm, and Sirius Black as their secret keeper. Sirius switches in an attempt to throw off Voldemort, and gives the job to Peter Pettigrew, but Peter betrayes them. Voldemort kills Harry's family but when he tried to kill baby Harry, it backfired because Lord Voldemort's soul had been split so many times it was unstable. However, Lord Voldemort had taken precautions by splitting his soul into other objects so that he could be revived if killed. Harry Potter grows up, raised by his aunt and uncle, not knowing he is the child of people who can perform magic, and not knowing magic really exists. When he is of age, he is told of his heritage, and is taken to Hogwarts, a school that teaches people how to use magic. Many adventures take place. Lord Voldemort is revived from death, and rebuilds his power base. Potter and Voldemort clash in a final battle in the seventh novel, and Potter wins. Harry Potter marries Ginny Weasley, and they have three children: James Sirius Potter, Albus Severus Potter and Lily Luna Potter, born in that order.
