The Yin Yang is a symbol used in Chinese philosophy to represent the concept of duality, complementary opposition, and universal harmony. It is made up of two equal and opposite parts, represented by a circle divided into two halves, one black (yin) and the other white (yang), with a point of opposite color in each part.
Yin represents feminine, dark and passive qualities, such as the moon, night, cold, humidity and intuition. The yang represents masculine, luminous and active qualities, such as the sun, the day, the heat, the dryness and the logic. Together, yin and yang represent the relativity and harmony of all things in the universe.
In the practice of Feng Shui, an ancient Chinese discipline that seeks to improve the harmony and balance of energy in the environment, yin-yang is used to evaluate and balance the energy of a space. Spaces must contain a balance between yin and yang qualities to create a harmonious and balanced atmosphere.
