How do you really know what your Hogwarts house is?
Your Hogwarts house is an important part of being a fan of the Harry Potter series but can we ever really know which house we’d belong in or is it all a guessing game?
When it comes to the Hogwarts houses, fans have strong opinions about the house they really think they’re in. The problem is that we don’t really know what house we’d be in because, in the context of the series, the sorting hat looks at so many aspects of your character to determine the house you belong in.
But that being said, there are ways to get close to the house you’d probably end up in. What’s most important though is that you can choose where you go. Harry proved that in the series by choosing to be a part of Gryffindor instead of Slytherin and when it boils down to it, we’re all choosing the house we think we’d fit best in.
So really, there’s no exact way of figuring out where you’d end up at Hogwarts. I can say that I’m a Gryffindor and that I’ve been told that many times by quizzes and at the studio tour but that doesn’t mean it’d be true in a real situation. I could easily be a Ravenclaw or maybe even a Slytherin (never a Hufflepuff though).
What all this means is that we’re the ones who get to decide. Someone can tell you that you’re a Hufflepuff but if that’s not what you believe, you don’t have to put yourself in that box. You can choose your house and that’s that.
