sasuhina theory no 5
OF TROPICAL CONSTELLATIONS AND CHINESE DIVINATION
A theory suggested by hmfan24 that will attempt to discuss the compatibilities of Sasuke and Hinata using the Western (Tropical Zodiac) and Eastern (Chinese) Astrologies.
This is not a part of the original series. With Naruto and Sakura.
-----
Western Astrology
The Tropical Zodiac is the most popular in western countries. This astrology considers the position of the Sun relative to the 12 zodiac constellations depending on an individual's month of birth. The first sign is Aries, the sign associated to the Spring Equinox.
 Chart I.
Dates and Signs of the Tropical Zodiac
Mar 21 - Apr 19 Aries
Apr 20 - May 20 Taurus
May 21 - Jun 20 Gemini
Jun 21 - Jul 22 Cancer
Jul 23 - Aug 22 Leo
Aug 23 -Sep 22 Virgo
Sep 23 - Oct 22 Libra
Oct 23 - Nov 21 Scorpio
Nov 22 - Dec 21 Sagittarius
Dec 22 - Jan 19 Capricorn
Jan 20 - Feb 18 Aquarius
Feb 19 - Mar 20 Pisces
Chart I tabulates the average dates of the Tropical Zodiac. Sources actually differ in boundary dates (dates when signs change); depending on its cycles, leap years are also known to affect the dates to little extent.
Tropical Zodiac predicts that human affairs may be influenced by different aspects - these being angular differences between heavenly bodies. The most commonly used and easily understood is opposition (opposites attract), with an angle difference of 180 degrees between two signs.
Chart II.
Signs and compatibilities using the Tropical Zodiac.
  Sasuke : Leo,
compatible with Aquarius
  Hinata : Capricorn,
compatible with Cancer
  Naruto : Libra,
compatible with Aries
  Sakura : Aries,
compatible with Libra
Initially, it can be observed that Sasuke is not compatible with Hinata, and vice versa. However, his birth date is a Cancer-Leo boundary (compatibility is Capricorn-Aquarius boundary). While some actually consider July 23 as Cancer, cycles of leap years can offset average dates by two days or so. Thus, making Sasuke's sign and his compatibility inclining to that of Hinata's.
Naruto is compatible with Sakura, and vice versa.

Eastern Astrology
The Chinese Zodiac is more complex. This astrology follows the Chinese Calendar (lunisolar) and is different from the Gregorian Calendar (a typical error neglected by astrologers when equating western signs to eastern signs). The Chinese New Year marks the beginning of the Lunar Calendar, and is celebrated sometime between February to early March.
An individual's destiny is described based on a individual's birth hour, month and year. We are most familiar with the 12 animal signs assigned to birth years; however, these zodiac signs are also assigned to birth months and hours, both of which are independent of the date when the Lunar New Year starts.
Since the only given information in Naruto are the characters' birth month and day, the zodiac signs assigned to lunar months will be used to describe their compatibilities. The division of the lunar month begins every Feb 03/04 in the west; Feb 04/05 in the east - when spring begins.
Chart III.
Dates and Signs of the Chinese Zodiac
Tiger: Feb 03/04 - Mar 05/06
Rabbit: Mar 05/06 - Apr 04/05
Dragon: Apr 04/05 - May 05
Snake: May 05 - Jun 05/06
Horse: Jun 05/06 - Jul 06/07
Ram: Jul 06/07 - Aug 07
Monkey: Aug 07 - Sep 07/08
Rooster: Sep 07/08 - Oct 07/08
Dog: Oct 07/08 - Nov 07
Pig: Nov 07 - Dec 06/07
Rat: Dec 06/07 - Jan 05/06
Ox: Jan 05/06 - Feb 03/04
By chance, the zodiac assigned to the birth months are said to rule one's inner persona and his compatibility to others. Each zodiac sign is also modified by an element, with its corresponding season and direction.
In Chinese geomancy, the balance of yin yang and the five elements has influence on what is beneficial and effective for an individual.
Chart IV.
Signs and Compatibilities using the Chinese Zodiac
Sasuke - Ram, compatible with Pig or Rabbit
- with elemental affinity of Fire
- represents the season Summer
- direction of South-Southwest;
Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Goat enjoy being alone in their thoughts. They’re creative, thinkers, wanderers, unorganized, high-strung and insecure, and can be anxiety-ridden. They need lots of love, support and reassurance. Appearance is important too.
Hinata : Rat, compatible with Dragon or Monkey.
- with elemental affinities of Water and Earth
- represents the season Winter
- directions of North and Center;
Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Rat are quick-witted, clever, charming, sharp and funny. They have excellent taste, are a good friend and are generous and loyal to others considered part of its pack. Motivated by money, can be greedy, is ever curious, seeks knowledge and welcomes challenges.
Naruto : Dog, compatible with Rabbit
- with elemental affinities of Metal and Earth
- represents the season Autumn
- directions of West-Northwest and Center;
Sakura : Rabbit, compatible with Ram and Dog
- with elemental affinity of Wood
- represents the season Spring
- direction of East
See that Hinata's sign is neither compatible to Sasuke or Naruto's;
Sakura's sign is compatible to both Sasuke and Naruto.
Compatibilities are not confined to emotional attachments but also with character similarities. Chinese zodiac signs are grouped (called trines) according to similarities in personality, personal ideals and views. Hinata's sign belonged in the first trine, Naruto's sign in the third, while Sasuke and Sakura's signs belonged in the fourth.
Thus, the compatibility of Sasuke and Sakura may not necessarily pertain to romantic implications but may also be simply because of character likeness. Sakura's compatibilities may also mean that she is a likely bond that balances Team 7- supplementing Sasuke, complementing Naruto.
The Fire elemental affinity of Sasuke may be complemented by the Water elemental affinity of Hinata, as the season Summer may be complemented by Winter and the direction South by North**;
The Metal elemental affinity of Naruto may be complemented by the Wood elemental affinity of Sakura (these elements are also ancient symbols of yin and yang), as the season Autumn may be complemented by Spring, and the direction West by East.
Note the Earth elemental affinities of Hinata and Naruto. This element is said to be the central balance of all elements and may be able to lend attributes to the other signs.
Here, Hinata just may able to support what Sasuke lacks and bring forth balance. An amusing turn out is Naruto's elemental affinities. Based on I Ching, metal is correlated to sky/heaven***; note that Naruto's other element is Earth. By himself, he is heaven and earth. Hence, encompassing all signs and its modifiers. It is most likely that he will turn out to be the strongest of them.

* List of compatibilities is incomplete. Those that are irrelevant in this comparison have been omitted.
** This is consistent with the Fourth Theory: The Four Emblems II.
*** See the Intro to Third Theory: The Five Elements.
Random notes:
Yellow and Pink
Naruto - his Earth elemental affinity is also represented by the color Yellow. His hair is in its bright shade, not to mention his possible relation to Konoha's Yellow Flash
Sakura - her representation of the season Spring is best fitting. Haruno means spring field, while the pretty pink cherry blossoms bloom for only a couple of days in the said season every year.
