Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we’re going to be discussing Sybill Trelawney and her role as a seer. Depending on how you look at it, Sybill Patricia Trelawney is one of the finest seers of her age. And she’s actually the one who correctly prophesied the fate that both Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort would share.
But even though she correctly divined the destiny of the Chosen One, Trelawney seems to get a bad rap.
And it only takes one quick glance at her to see why. With frizzled hair… an ancient, dust covered purse… and glasses as thick as coke bottles… Professor Trelawney doesn’t really give the impression that she’s able to see much of anything… let alone the future.
But you might be surprised to know that this humble divination professor from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry correctly foresaw dozens of predictions and prophecies. And today, we’re going to take a look at the majority of them.
