Trust no one, check the desk

Years as an Auror leave Moody extremely suspicious of everyone, and in Order of the Phoenix he checks Mrs. Weasley's writing desk and confirms the boggart inside. Matthew McConaughey worked a detective beat as Rust Cohle in True Detective season one, earning a Critics' Choice Television Award and an Emmy nomination. Moody would have checked the envelope first.

4 lines add up to Alastor

Points spread across Alastor’s profile: Mars with Saturn or Pluto 1.00, a nose for danger 0.60, Mars in Scorpio or Capricorn 0.60 and stamina 0.40. Mars with Saturn or Pluto reads Mercury opposite Saturn, within a degree of exact; Mars in Scorpio or Capricorn reads Mars in Capricorn.

Bellatrix lost by 0.09

Photo finish: Alastor 2.33, Bellatrix 2.24. The split: Alastor collects 1.00 on Mars with Saturn or Pluto, and Bellatrix answers with water at 0.36. Neville Longbottom sits 0.19 behind that at 74%. Garrick Ollivander topped the raw number at 3.31 against Alastor’s 2.33, then lost out to the cast’s gender, age and role rules.

Bellatrix Lestrange’s lesson: Bellatrix is an example of what happens when feelings completely shut off reason and conscience. She teaches you: choose carefully what you give all of yourself to, because boundless devotion turns a person into a weapon.

And Neville Longbottom: Fans love him as the best coming-of-age story in the whole series.

Same Mars as NEBO’s Alastor chart: Capricorn. Leaves no trace (Order of the Phoenix): Harry reads the address of the Order's headquarters once, on a scrap of parchment. Moody sets the note on fire the moment he is done.

Alastor has Sun in Pisces, this chart Scorpio: both water. Remembers every face (Order of the Phoenix): Moody pulls out a battered photograph of the original Order of the Phoenix and names everyone in it. Harry's parents are at the edge of the frame.

Alastor has Moon in Taurus, this chart Virgo: both earth. Steady, and means it (Order of the Phoenix): End of fifth year, King's Cross. Moody tells Uncle Vernon the Order will be checking on Harry, and if they hear nothing for three days, someone turns up.

Capricorn Mars: the placement that leans Alastor

Only Mars leans the way Alastor’s crowd does: Mars in Capricorn, 1.8× the normal rate in those 300 charts. Astrology’s shorthand for Mars there: grinds until it’s done. Alastor’s strongest magnet is Pisces Sun at 2.1×, and this chart has Scorpio there. Venus in Libra, at 0.6×, argues against Alastor.
