[THEORY] The Staff's Symbolism (Re-edited)

First of all this theory consists of multiple quotes from many users but it provides an interesting insight on the staff's symbolism. I hope you enjoy reading it. :)


Part-1 :-



The Staff Of Peace :-

1) Amaterasu:-

Obito has Left Rinnegan which technically is an EMS and casts Amaterasu. Amaterasu represents the Sun and thus Obito has a full circle staff representing the sun. The six small rings on the circle represent the six elements or the rays of the sun.

2) Tsukuyomi:-

Madara has Right Rinnegan which technically is an EMS and casts Tsukuyomi. Tsukuyomi represents the moon and thus madara has a semi-circle staff representing the moon.

3) Susanoo:-

It is only when the Left and Right Rinnegans are combined that the full power is unleashed and you get a full circle and semi-circle staff that the Rikudo possess. Rikudo is the Heavenly Warrior and represents Susanoo who has attained balance between the Sun (Good) and the Moon (Evil).

The Staff Of War :-

This is very interesting. Though all of us are in shadows regarding the other brother of Hagaromo, but this is just a hypnosis..

1. His staff looks completely different from that of Hagoromo. (mangafact)
2. He of-course has a eye technique (maybe)
3. He is currently the biggest mystery (100% legit)
4. Assuming Huyga and Uzumaki are his descendants (Theory)
5. What happened to him? I think we are about to see something new about him and his family in the coming chapters. (possibility)
6. He is equally powerful as hagoromo. (guessing)
7. He is the yang of hagoromo (theory) representing War opposite to peace.

Part-3 :-

Looks like a war staff

Part-4 :-

Ok, I might be a bit too far fetched with this but here I go :-

The Full circle or sun staff represents Physical Energy and good. It is represented by the heavenly body, the Sun.

The Semi circle or moon staff represents Spiritual Energy and evil. It is represented by the heavenly body, the Moon.

The 'T' shaped staff represents Nature Energy and the unknown power and ignorance towards it. It is represented by the heavenly body, the Earth.

Basically the Sun, the Moon and the Earth are related heavenly objects. By assuming that the Earth consists of Natural Energy, the 'T' staff might represent the Earth.

Since, we all live on the Earth, we rarely acknowledge it's power i.e; Natural Energy and keep on living in ignorance. When it resurfaces, it feels like an unknown power as the Rikudou's brother basically faded from history as even Madara didn't know about him.

Thus the 'T' staff represents the Earth and Natural Energy.

Part-5 :-

To add to this :-

The Rikudou's staff is the staff of peace in which the Sun or Physical Energy and the Moon or Spiritual Energy powers are counterbalanced and this brings Peace.

But the staff of Rikudou's brother has only Natural Energy. It doesn't have an opposite energy to counterbalance it. Thus, it is unstable and brings war and destruction.

Thus, the Natural Energy or the Juubi which represents the Earth was unstable and had to be sealed to prevent War.

Part-6 :-

As we know Natural Energy though unstable can be counterbalanced with Spiritual Energy and Physical Energy which is basically Sage Mode. Thus, Sage Mode might represent balance between the moon, the sun and the earth.

Above, Spiritual Energy or the Moon, Physical Energy or the Sun and Natural Energy or the Earth are counterbalanced and are in harmony leading to peace.


Part-7 :-

As we already know :-

1) Naruto already has Sage Mode.
2) Has met and understood all the Bijuu and has their Chakra.


Madara, Hashirama and many others had Sage Mode but never truly understood the Bijuu.


If Naruto obtains the Rikudou Mode along with Sage Mode then his staff will be a "Tri-staff" with the Full circle or Sun staff, the Semi-circle or Moon Staff and the 'T' Staff or Earth Staff representing Harmony between the "Sun, the Moon and the Earth".


Part-8 :-

So Hagoromo created Ninshuu for Peace which became Ninjutsu used for War and the Rikudou's Brother created Senjutsu. interesting...

Part-9 (EDIT-1) :-

As we all know from above that the Juubi is actually Nature Energy and represents the Earth.

We know from the original Viz Scan that Rikudou's Brother sealed the Juubi within the Rikudou.

You must be registered for see images


Since above, we assumed that the Rikudou Brother's "T" Staff represented Natural Energy and the Earth, it is possible that he was the one who controlled the Juubi's Natural Energy and sealed it within Rikudou.

Since Rikudou only has Physical Energy (Sun Staff) and Spiritual Energy (Moon Staff) and no "T" Staff (Earth Staff), it is possible that he was not able to seal the Juubi's Natural Energy and it had to be sealed by his brother who had the "T" Staff (Earth Staff).

When, the seal broke, Rikudou knew he won't be able to control the Juubi's Natural Energy and was forced to divide the Juubi into the Nine Bijuu and the Gedo Mazou and remove the Natural Energy. The Bijuu and the Gedo Mazou may be symbols of the balance between Spiritual and Physical Energy.

What are your Thoughts ?

Some more food for thought : As we know Natural Energy though unstable can be counterbalanced with Spiritual Energy and Physical Energy which is basically Sage Mode. Thus, Sage Mode might represent balance between the moon, the sun and the earth. Since Naruto has sage mode, his staff might take on all three characteristics representing balance between the above three.

Interesting.

We will find this out when Madara gets his other eye back, if his staff becomes like Hagoromos this is confirmed, if not well you had a good run.

I think The sage's staff represents the crescent and full moon shown here:

I could be wrong though...

EDIT: See here it shows the crescent moon behind Indra and the full moon behind Ashura:

intresting theory.

But I think sage mode is ancient . Its more older than Jubbi and Sage and Kaguya.
I think Kaguya knew about sage mode and also she has some kinda SM,
I also think that if sage posses rinnegan and his brother don't than yeah he may have SM but I don't think he found use of nature energy

Indra was powerful from the beginning. Thus, he didn't need anyone and eventually became alone. The Crescent Moon signifies the void of Loneliness in his heart and his reasons for becoming evil.

Ashura was weak from the beginning. Thus, he made friends and eventually had a strong force of friends behind him. The Full moon represents that he was able to fill the void of Weakness with the power of Friends and become complete.

I disagree with you on one point, Ninjutsu and Ninshuu are two different things. Ninshuu is more spiritual and was made for connecting Shinobi's hearts while the other was made for War which is Ninjutsu, able to wield the power of Chakra to become deadly. You should read my post I made a great connection with Naruto

Rikudou created Ninshuu to make people understand each other.

But Ninjas used it to make Ninjutsu.

So Hagoromo created Ninshuu for Peace which became Ninjutsu used for War. This means that both are related. Basically, Ninshuu< Ninjutsu. They are completely different, I agree, but they are related.

You can say that but Ninjutsu is more of Chakra while Ninshuu is more of connecting spiritually. Have you ever noticed the reason why Naruto is able to talk sense to his enemies? He's able to share emotions also. That's is Ninshuu, no one knows how to use it but the present Naruto. Chakra + Spiritual = Ninshuu, while Ninjustsu = Chakra.
It's basically like Ki.
