The prophecy, made shortly before Harry's birth, had been what persuaded Dumbledore to hire Trelawney as the Divination teacher; had it not happened, Dumbledore likely would not have allowed the course to be offered at Hogwarts. Events to date had made parts of the prophecy become true, and Dumbledore allows Harry to hear the entire prophecy. Harry is greatly disturbed, as it appears that the prophecy is saying that he must either kill Voldemort or be killed by him.
Dumbledore apparently realizes that Harry is reluctant to discuss Trelawney's prophecy with anyone, as it seems to be impelling him to become a murderer, so he recommends that Harry tell Ron and Hermione about it. He does so, and is relieved to discover that they do not think less of him for the revelation.
Harry's interaction with Trelawney is very limited this year, as he had failed his Divination OWL so dramatically. We learn that both Trelawney and Firenze , who was hired to replace her, are now teaching Divination. Parvati Patil seems somewhat disappointed that Trelawney is teaching sixth year.
Trelawney still feels affronted, and seems to feel that Firenze is stepping on her turf, because we see her walking through the halls, smelling of sherry, and trying unsuccessfully to tell her own fortune.
At Horace Slughorn 's Christmas party, she is morosely drunk, and in mid-March we see her demanding, unsuccessfully, that Dumbledore fire Firenze. Summoned to Dumbledore's office, Harry finds Trelawney sprawled on the floor outside the Room of Requirement. Helping her up, he discovers that she had been using the Room of Requirement as a place to hide her sherry; this time, though, she had heard someone inside "whooping".
When she had demanded to know who was there, everything had gone dark, and she had been rudely thrust back out into the corridor. Harry believes that the evident joy in the unknown person's voice indicated that Draco Malfoy had completed whatever it was that he was doing in the Room of Requirement, and he asks Trelawney to accompany him to Dumbledore's office, to tell Dumbledore what she had heard.
On the way, she starts talking about the day she was hired. Harry has already heard the story from Dumbledore, and is somewhat interested to hear Trelawney's version, but when Trelawney mentions that the eavesdropper had been Severus Snape , Harry leaves her standing in the corridor and runs off to confront Dumbledore with this information.
With Harry not attending Hogwarts, we see very little of Trelawney until the final battle. Trelawney helps her fellow professors and students during the battle that ensues at Hogwarts when Lord Voldemort and other Death Eaters attack it by throwing crystal balls down from upper landings of the staircase.
A thrown crystal ball knocks out Fenrir Greyback before he can resume an attack on Lavender Brown. Trelawney actually does have the gift of Sight to a limited extent. Twice, over the course of some eighteen years, she has made prophecies: one has come true, and the other had partially become true at the start of the series, and is completed by the end. She does have some ability to mislead and misdirect; Parvati Patil and Lavender Brown hang on her every word. She pretends to be a better seer than she is; knowing that she is supposed to have the Sight, because of her ancestor, she plays that up for all she is worth, using the same tricks Muggle fortune-tellers use.
She annoys some people but she cannot be relieved of her residence at the castle because of her real prophecies. She is very insecure, trying to preserve her position as superior to Firenze after his hiring by bad-mouthing him and his techniques.
When she is threatened with dismissal, and when Firenze is taking half the Divination classes, she also tends to retreat into alcohol; in the latter half of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix , and throughout Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince , we never meet Sybill without smelling sherry.
Her relationships with students are not much better: she irritates Harry, Hermione, and Ron, but manages to gather a smattering of followers including Parvati Patil and Lavender Brown. She also holds resentment towards Firenze when he is appointed as a second Divination teacher. Overall, Trelawney likes to make big impressions, most probably because of her insecure nature.
She enjoys predicting the deaths of students, one in each year, though none have died yet. Professor Dumbledore insists that Professor Trelawney can't leave the school. Why does he care so much? Because beneath her batty exterior, Professor Trelawney has two valuable secrets. Even though she herself does not seem to remember them, she has made two accurate predictions. The first appears in Book 3, when she predicts that Wormtail will rejoin Voldemort and Voldemort will rise again.
The second appears in Book 5. Professor Dumbledore explains that he was interviewing Trelawney for a job at the Hog's Head Inn fifteen years ago when she suddenly spoke in an unfamiliar, deep voice:.
