When exactly did the wind change?

If we can match it up more precisely with Aragorn unfurling the banner for the first time, that would support your theory. But I don't recall any references to the wind changing at that precise moment. Personally, I see the Higher Powers behind the winds throughout the book. I'm not sure about the banner. If the banner did have magical powers, Tolkien hid them well, which still means that he undersells Arwen's role in the story, as compared, for example, to Galadriel and her gifts.

Yes, Gríma too, good catch. And how about lust for the Ring? Or other lusts?
