    Harry Potter Book 5

    What was it Voldemort wanted from the Department of Mysteries in the Ministry of Magic?Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    What is the study of Occlumency?Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

      Training the mind to shut down emotions. Dumbledore was afraid Voldemort was entering Harry's mind to gather information, so he had Snape teach Harry Occlumency so he would be able to clear his mind, and not feel Voldemort's emotions anymore.

    What name did Harry and his friends call themselves for their DA club?Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

      Dumbledore's Army. Since Professor Umbridge refused to teach the students anything useful, they took it upon themselves to practice countercurses and jinxes to protect themselves from Voldemort and his Death Eaters.
