Harry Potter's Scar

Title

Harry Potter's Scar

Subject

Harry Potter Horcrux

Description

Harry's lightning shaped scar on his forehead represents the connection between Harry and Voldemort. While there is a foretold prophecy, the physical representation of the bond that was aligned by fate is the scar.

The scar also represents Lily Potter's (Harry's mother) strength and love for her son. It is because of her that Voldemort was only able to give Harry this scar instead of killing him.

This is a symbol of hope and it is said that the leader of the rebellion will bear a mark.
