Why Don't MORE Wizards Become Animagi? - Harry Potter Theory

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re going to be discussing animagi- witches and wizards with the unique ability to transform in to an animal (and back again) at will. A single witch or wizard who possesses this ability is known as an ‘animagus’.

The practice of becoming an animagus and transforming your body in this way is considered to be a specialized form of transfiguration- a branch of magic focused on changing the form and appearance of objects, creatures and people.

Animagus is a combination of the word "animal" and the Greek word magus, meaning "animal wizard." Once a witch or wizard masters the ability to become an Animagus, they will ‘adopt’ an animal form that is closely linked to their personality and inner traits.

But perhaps the most alluring aspect of animagi is the fact that there are, according to Hermione’s research, only 7 known animagi from the last century.

What I want to discuss further is…Why? How is it that this powerful ability is so underutilized in wizarding society? Why haven’t powerful wizards like Voldemort and Dumbledore attempted it? Let’s dive in.
