User blog:S.M.Shen/Harry Potter: why does a wizard have to be 11 to get an offer from Hogwarts?

How many Hogwarts fans, at the age of eleven, were waiting for an owl to deliver their Hogwarts acceptance letter?Although we were not destined to report to Hogwarts, we still imagined that the owl carrying our message must have been lost.After all, in the heart of every harpy, one would rather believe that one is a muggle than believe that there is no magic.Since we can't wait for that letter, why does it have to be at the age of 11 for Hogwarts to issue an acceptance letter?

1.AVOID SILENCE
Let's go back to the setting of the wizarding world.Hogwarts was chosen at the age of 11, with special considerations.While it is lucky to be born with magical powers, it is very occasionally that luck can turn into tragedy.In the movie fantastic beasts and where to find them, we learn about the silent one.In order to escape their fate, young wizards suppress their magical powers, but due to a lack of guidance, they do not learn to control and control their powers, thus spawning a parasite - the dark magical forces "silently".The silent is the host of the silent.In general, the silent don't live to be 10 (with the exception of credence byrben in fantastic beasts).Hogwarts waits until the boy wizard is 11 years old to send him a letter of admission, in order to avoid a silent one among them, which would bring disaster to the school and other students.

2.NUMEROLOGY
Rowling USES a lot of numerology in her novels.For example, the most stable number 3, the most mysterious number 7, the most unlucky number 13, and so on.According to numerology, even Numbers (both Numbers are the same) are special.For example, when a digital watch shows 11:11, it makes us feel strangely strange.11:11 is often given a positive meaning, meaning that god is helping you.You've been chosen because you're ready for the unknown.
