The Most Powerful Magic LEFT OUT of the Movies - Harry Potter Explained

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Now, lately I've talked a lot about Sacrificial Protection - an ancient, potent and enduring counter-charm that's invoked when an individual willingly and selflessly sacrifices themselves out of a profound and unadulterated love to protect the lives of their loved ones.

And the reason that it's been brought up is that Sacrificial Protection is in fact a form of Ancient Magic- which has come to the forefront of many Harry Potter fan's minds through the new Harry Potter game Hogwarts Legacy.

The idea of sacrificial protection is introduced in the first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, when Harry's mother, Lily Potter, sacrifices herself to save her son from Voldemort's killing curse. Her love and selflessness creates a powerful magical protection that ultimately results in the end of Voldemort's first reign of terror.

But In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the concept of sacrificial protection is introduced once again and actually ends up playing a fairly major role in the ultimate defeat of Lord Voldemort.

But this is all stuff you knew, what I want to uncover today is a lesser-known tidbit about this magic that may in fact have been the most powerful display of magic in the entire Harry Potter series. In fact, this piece of information was nearly entirely glossed over in the films.
