What did yang do to ying

This Simbol(Yin-Yang) represents the ancient Chinese understanding of how things work. The outer circle represents "everything", while the black and white shapes within the circle represent the interaction of two energies, called "yin" (black) and "yang" (white), which cause everything to happen. They are not completely black or white, just as things in life are not completely black or white, and they cannot exist without each other. While "yin" would be dark, passive, downward, cold, contracting, and weak, "yang" would be bright, active, upward, hot, expanding, and strong. The shape of the yin and yang sections of the symbol, actually gives you a sense of the continual movement of these two energies, yin to yang and yang to yin, causing everything to happen: just as things expand and contract, and temperature changes from hot to cold.

This symbol, yin/yang is called the supreme ultimate symbol, tai ji tu. Represents the interaction between complimentary aspects, or the pairs of opposites. Yang represents : White, Male, Light, Firm, Strong, Heaven etc. while Yin represents : Black, Female. Dark, Earth, Yielding, Weak etc. The symbol shows how Yin and Yang compliment and complete each other. And the dark spot in the White, and the light spot in the dark. Represents how within each aspect there is always a little of the other. Peace M.
