February 13th — the eve of Valentine's Day — is the birthday of Luna Lovegood, the dreamily eccentric Ravenclaw who believes in Nargles, reads The Quibbler upside down, and turns out to be right about more things than anyone gives her credit for. Her birthday falling one day before Valentine's Day suits a character who sees love and wonder in places the rest of the wizarding world has decided are not worth looking.
