There is a theory that Albus Dumbledore may have orchestrated events that occurred in Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix.
However, was, all of the events that happened in that book really what he intended? Or wanted to do?
As maybe it was true that Albus Dumbledore knew that Voldemort would eventually go to The Department of Mysteries after a few failed attempts.
As Albus Dumbledore knew that Cornelieus Fudge had trouble believing that Voldemort had indeed returned. Albus Dumbledore could see that the very thought of Voldemort absolutely petrified Cornelieus Fudge.
Albus Dumbledore also may have wanted to help Fudge see sense, but Fudge proved to be very stubborn.
Though what happened at the department of Mysteries would’ve happened anyway. As not even Albus Dumbledore can control everything or everyone.
However, perhaps Albus did send a message to Cornelieus to meet him at a specific place and Voldemort happened to turn up there too. Then seeing for himself Cornelieus couldn’t dismiss what Dumbledore had been trying to tell him.
Also, as Albus Dumbledore taught Tom Riddle when he was a student at Hogwarts, so he knew how he thought as well as Riddle’s strengths and weaknesses.
So, after a few failed attempts of making others get this prophecy Voldemort went to the Ministry of Magic himself where he dueled with Albus.
Though the prophecy was destroyed as Voldemort managed to trick Harry into thinking that Voldemort had Sirius inside The Department of Mysteries and he was torturing him.
As all Harry knew was that Voldemort wanted something and when he got there to save Sirius, he discovered that his god father wasn’t there at all.
Then in the end the death eaters turned up and Harry must have felt incredibly stupid. As he and his friends had to try and escape the death eaters somehow.
So, Albus Dumbledore wasn’t the only one orchestrating events.
Then the prophecy was smashed sometime after members of The Order of The Phoenix arrived to rescue Harry and the other kids.
Voldemort also for a short time tried to possess Harry hoping to trick Albus but for some reason Voldemort couldn’t endure possessing Harry.
Albus Dumbledore also knew that Voldemort would never try possessing Harry again.
As after he transported Harry back to the headmaster’s office Albus and Harry talked. Harry was upset and angry that Sirius was now dead. Though Lupin and Sirius did try to tell Harry that he needed to close his mind to Voldemort.
Even though it was Professor Snape teaching him.
However, when Harry saw some of Professor Snape’s memories Harry told Professor Snape that didn’t think that those memories, he saw were funny. I also think that even though those lessons with Snape were discontinued in the end that:
The experience of Snape trying to teach Harry occlumency had later on helped Harry begin to see Professor Snape in a different light. This is also probably what Albus Dumbledore had hoped.
Then as Albus Dumbledore and Professor Snape were related. Albus probably wished that he could make Professor Snape see Harry in a different light.
Though another theory that’s about Professor Snape that might have happened in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is that:
When Harry had his very first lesson with Professor Snape that apparently the teacher had sent Harry a coded message.
So, if this was true the coded message would’ve told Harry that he deeply regretted Lily’s death. Albus Dumbledore probably had suggested this to Professor Snape.
Or, as Professor Snape was a clever man, he may have, came up with this idea by himself on how he would tell Harry. As I don’t think that Professor Snape would’ve wanted Harry to hear it from anyone else as Professor Snape told Albus that Harry must not know. However, Harry did find out that Professor Snape was a death eater, and he was quite furious with his headmaster as Harry couldn’t understand why Albus had so much faith in Snape. As Harry really had trouble calling Professor Snape Professor in his school years at Hogwarts.
As instead Harry just called Professor Snape, “Snape” and Albus Dumbledore would remind Harry by saying Professor Snape, Harry.
Though Professor Snape had to be the way he naturally was with Harry as he knew he was protecting him. It also seemed to be a hard year at Hogwarts as Fudge it seemed was a bit deluded and had sent Professor Delores Umbridge to Hogwarts. So, that she could report back to him and make changes.
She also punished Harry as she was giving people incorrect information and Harry was given a “pen” to write lines that was using his blood instead of proper ink.
As she was the type of person that abused her power as she got Harry to write I must not tell lies. Ron and Hermione were horrified when they found out and Hermione told Harry to let Professor McGonagal or the headmaster know about it. Though Harry didn’t want to do that as he thought it was between Umbridge and himself.
He also thought if he did what Hermione suggested that it would only make Umbridge, and the ministry create another decree and he didn’t want that. Besides, Harry also felt angry as well as confused with Albus Dumbledore.
As to Harry it seemed that his headmaster was avoiding him, and at first Harry couldn’t understand why?
Though when Albus Dumbledore thought it was safe to tell Harry, he didn’t hesitate. As they spoke when Harry was in his headmaster’s office.
