Yin - Yang Symbolism In Chinese concept, yin and yang are two opposing
elements of the universe.
They are not two poles like good and evil, however; they are relative. For
example,
Yin: associates with the dark Moon
(facing away from Sun), represents feminine nature
Yang: associates with the bright Sun,
represents masculine nature
Although while yin dominates femininity and yang masculinity,
within the body of either sex, there are still traces of both elements.
As a result, an imbalance of the yin-yang ratio can cause illness. This
is not to say that everyone should have exactly half of each; every individual
needs to find this balance depending on their own constitution, climate,
season, occupation and even emotional environment. And, if in perfect health,
the individual should be able to adapt to any inevitable changes.
Together, the symbolic colours of yin and yang, black and white respectively,
are combined into a circle that symbolizes Taoists: the Taijitu, often known
as the T'ai Chi symbol or the Pictogram of the Supreme Ultimate.
The concept of Yin and Yang is one of the most fundamental
and profound theories of Feng Shui. It is the Chinese perspective of balance
and continual change. Yin and Yang can further be explained as a duality
that cannot exist without both parts.
