--- Quote ---Harry clearly states that the protection invested by the amulet is from his faith in magic. And that magic glows blue.

I have no idea why this is a reply to my statement? I know its blue. Like you say though yea, it glows blue based on his belief in the symbolic pentagram, not as an actual spell, enchantment or drawing on of his wizardly abilities. In a couple books he really goes into detail about it representing magic being mankinds tool to aid them and representing order and control. Harry has faith in little else and says so repeatedly. Calling light and repellin vamps while "magical" to peasants isn't magic as defined in the DV. Harry summons his faith, but rarely summons faith based magic. Faith, love and hope being powers all their own in the DV.
Loganimol:
I think it means Harry has reached the upper level, and his mind, body, and soul are one... It was a sacrifice, it took hard work, but its a way of life.

It was either an infusion of WG, or Starborn "energy" (whatever that is). Any other explanation is a huge stretch IMO.

What about a Higher Harry Power??

Well looking at the scene it can't be soulfire because soulfire light is coming from the cracks in the ground. IMO it isn't starborn because thats dark energy. ok quick question then most likeliest resolution, before Harry ever gets lash influenced does his staff glow gold from fire? Likeliest I can think is its a metaphysical representation of harry drawing on his core beliefs. Pentagrams 5 points magically are(IIRC) earth, wind, fire, water, spirit. soulfire-spirit, water-ice, cracked ground-earth, flurry-wind and the gold light-(usually associated with summer/summer flame)fire. His meta-self is representing his beliefs by showing symbolic forces.
