I've put alot of thought into this.Kishimoto's, Heaven and Earth and Yin and Yang concept.


Yin (Chinese: 陰 or 阴; pinyin: yīn; literally "shady place, north slope (hill), south bank (river); cloudy, overcast") is the dark element: it is passive, dark, feminine, downward-seeking, and corresponds to the night.

Yang (陽 or 阳; yáng; "sunny place, south slope (hill), north bank (river); sunshine") is the bright element: it is active, light, masculine, upward-seeking and corresponds to the day.

Yin is often symbolized by water or earth, while yang is symbolized by fire or wind.

Yin (the receptive, feminine, dark, passive force) and yang (the creative, masculine, bright, active force) are descriptions of complementary opposites rather than absolutes. Any yin/yang dichotomy can be viewed from another perspective. All forces in nature can be seen as having yin and yang states, and the two are in movement rather than held in absolute stasis.


Information taken from wikipedia.

Yin and Yang is mainly thought of good and evil in the Western culture.People think the Ying and Yang concept fits in NaruHina.But Hinata fits the Yin and Yang concept instead of the pairing NaruHina.I can't really get out what I'm saying in words.Hyuga" (日向) means "toward the sun".Hinata means "Sunny place; in the sun", and Yang (陽 or 阳; yáng; "sunny place, south slope (hill), north bank (river); sunshine") is the bright element: it is active, light, masculine, upward-seeking and corresponds to the day.Which leads be to believe Hinata's true self is Yang, but is forced to live behind the Yin concept.Hinata has two sides of her that fits both Yin and Yang.She has also shown her Yang side in the battle with Neji.I do believe Hinata used Naruto, as an inspiration to guide her to the "sunny place".But Naruto isen't the light, but he was an example of what she wanted to be.Hinata will find the light within herself.

I don't think Kishimoto ment for the Yin and Yang to be NaruHina purpose though.I'm just saying that I don't think the concept was ment for Naruto and Hinata.I think it was ment a bit for Neji and Hinata though.Take a look at this slit from the manga.Slit from volume 9.If you notice, Hinata is on the Yang side.(The Yang side will always be white.)Thats why I believe Yin and Yang has nothing to do with NaruHina.It has more to do with Hinata, and an on going battle inside herself.Here is a video that can explain more about Yin and Yan than I can.Secrets of Yin Yang revealed. Your going to find it's more about who Hinata is, and who she what she wants to become.


If qualities of Heaven are your desire.
Aquire wisdom and knowledge to take your mind higher.
If Earthly qualties are what you lack.
Train your body in the fields and prepare to attack.

When both Heaven and Earth are opened together,
The path of peril will revert to the righteous path forever.
This "Jin" is the secret way...
...that guides us from this place today.


The Heaven and Earth concept is similar to the Yin and Yang concept.Both concepts need another to coexist.Heaven needs Earth to coexist, and Earth needs Heaven to coexist.Yin needs Yang to coexist, and Yang needs Yin to coexist.Yin and Yang coexist in one person alone.So each person has Yin and Yang in them.When Heaven and Earth coexist, it can be in one person or all people.That's where the word "Jin" comes in.Jin means one person or all people.(Or so stated by Iruka.)

In the Chunin exams, it is Sakura that opens the Heaven scroll, and Naruto who opens the Earth scroll.Heaven refers to the human mind, and Earth refers to the human body.In part one, Sakura had the knowledge of Heaven, but she lacked the strength of Earth.Naruto had the strenghth of Earth, but he lacked the knowledge of Heaven.I think what Kishimto is saying is that...Sakura needs Naruto and Naruto needs Sakura.They both need eachother to make themselves whole.When they are togerther, they can do anything.

When you put Heaven and Earth together.The path of peril will revert to the righteous path forever.When Yin and Yang are put together it is almost like the same thing.

What to discuss://
Is this possible forshadowing.
Is this concept NaruSaku related.
Your veiw on both concepts.

I've always thought of the Heaven and Earth as a foreshadowing for NaruSaku...=3

And I don't think Yin and Yang would really work. If Hinata is the Yin, while Yang is Naruto, why does Hinata's name mean 'sunlight'?
Kishi always makes it so that the names have a certain meaning to them...l
Kiba = fang
Naruto = fishcake
Sakura = cherry blossoms
and on and on...

Is this possible forshadowing. In my personal opinion, yeah, it is. Kishimoto is always subtle with his hints, right? He doesn't just go "BAMBAM CANON!" he tries to foreshadowing a bit.
Is this concept NaruSaku related. The concept of Heaven&Earth,m I believe, relates to NaruSaku, in a way. Or at least, it relates to Naruto and Sakura.
Your veiw on both concepts. Heaven&Earth, I find intruiging. Yin and yang can be interesting for some pairings, I.E. NejiHina/SasuHina/SasuSaku, but I don't think it works for NaruHina or NaruSaku.

Is this possible forshadowing.
I think so. The good writers (and Kishimoto is one of them) are always subtle with the foreshadowing. This could work.
Is this concept NaruSaku related.
Not sure. It relates to Naruto and Sakura. Not necessarily NaruSaku (though I hope it is)
Your veiw on both concepts.
I've always found the Yin/Yang concept fascinating.

Is this possible forshadowing. YESH! Kishi and his foreshadowing...ness...:3
It's already showing that Nauto and Sakura are able to work, talk, train, and spend time with Naruto perfectly.
Is this concept NaruSaku related.Heaven and Earth is definately Naruto and Sakura related. Not so much in a romantical sense, but I think it could imply that. :3
Your veiw on both concepts.I find Heaven and Earth more interesting. I hear Ying and Yang a lot, and how it coexists in one person...I see it everywhere, but I don't hear things of Heaven and Earth a lot, and I find that concept fascinating. :3
