Yin Yang Symbol

The Yin and Yang symbol represents a balanced interplay of pairs of essential, but opposing forces, each containing some component of its opposite.

This generates a cyclical, eternal ebb and flow of the activities and qualities of each member of the pair.

Example of Yin and Yang pairings:

push / pull

hard / soft

light / dark

in / out

up / down

salty / sweet

control / chaos

loud / quiet

white / black

heavy / light

give / take
