In the world of Harry Potter, few objects are as chilling and enigmatic as Horcruxes - vessels of a dark wizard's soul created via only the most sinister acts of dark magic. 

And throughout Wizarding history, there has always been an eerie silence surrounding the subject of Horcruxes. These mysterious objects, ingrained with a fragment of a dark wizard's soul, have become the epitome of the taboo. The reason for this secrecy lying in both fear and preservation- with the mere mention of these cursed objects sending shivers down the spines of even the bravest witches and wizards.

But for a young schoolboy by the name of Tom Riddle, Horcruxes represented something very different. To him, they represented an opportunity- an opportunity to gain the upper hand over other witches and wizards and achieve unparalleled levels of power. 

The allure of Horcruxes lay in the tantalizing promise of immortality and supremacy. As far back as early childhood, Riddle harbored ambitions far grander and more sinister than his peers. To him, Horcruxes weren't just objects of fear and secrecy; they were the key to unlocking a future in which he would reign unchallenged.

And for the most part, Tom was able to succeed in his goal of harnessing the power of Horcruxes. But what I want to discuss today is another unspoken element of Horcrux creation that’s never been properly touched on..A SECRET from Voldemort’s past that may very well provide answers to some of the DARKEST questions related to Voldemort’s quest for immortality.

Today we’ll answer all of that AND MORE as we dive in to the SECRET meanings behind each of Voldemort’s Horcruxes.
