She actually said it!

JKR has updated her site to wish Draco a happy birthday on June 5!

1. This is the first time a "negative" character has been wished a "Happy Birthday"

2. This means he's a gemini, which I have read sometimes as two souls in one body, which is *so* spot on for my perpetual WIP, Surfeit of Curses - I gave him a January birthday because of the whole looking back & forward at the same time thing, but gemini makes as much sense as anything. Anyone going to run a horoscope for him? Please?

3. It's also the first anniversary of PoAIMAXNYC; I doubt it means anything, but it's a sparkly coincidence!

We know his family's home is in Wiltshire but I'd be curious as to whether it'd change if he was born in London at St Mungo's. We still don't have a time but at least that's a location...

I know a fair bit about astrology -- but not enough abaout HP to know how old these kids are, i.e. June 1st of what year?

1980. And birth was likely in Wiltshire (where his parent's home is) or London, where the wizarding hospital is, and possibly where his mother's parents were living at the time.

Eh, I doubt he was born at St. Mungo's. The Malfoy's strike me as the type to floo in a wizened old midwife-type who also oversaw the birth of Lucius as well, etc. etc. I think they would consider it beneath them to have the heir to Malfoy Manor birthed at the same place as other more "common" witches and wizards.

That said, Draco has the same birthday as my brother. I thought the little squirt reminded me of someone...
