Yin-Yang Details: Yin/Yang are the generalization of antithesis of mutual correlation certain object or phenomenon in natural world. They have meaning of unity of opposites. Also known as Yin and Yang or heaven and earth, has similar meaning. The dual concepts of yin and yang, or the single concept Yin-Yang, originate in ancient Chinese philosophy and metaphysics, which describe two primal opposing but complementary principles or cosmic forces said to be found in all non-static objects and processes in the universe. The concept is the cornerstone for Taoism and traditional Chinese medicine. Yin (Chinese Meaning "shady place, north slope, south bank (river); cloudy, overcast"); Meaning in Japanese: (in or on) is the dark element: it is passive, dark, feminine, downward-seeking, and corresponds to the night. Yáng (Chinese Meaning "sunny place, south slope, north bank (river), sunshine"); Meaning in Japanese: (yo) is the bright element: it is active, light, masculine, upward-seeking and corresponds to the daytime. Yin is often symbolized by water and earth, while yang is symbolized by fire and wind. Yin (the receptive, feminine, dark, passive force) and yang (the creative, masculine, bright, active force) are descriptions of complementary opposites rather than absolutes. Any yin-yang dichotomy can be viewed from another perspective. All forces in nature can be seen as having yin and yang states, and the two are in movement rather than held in absolute stasis. Taijitu, is the traditional symbol representing the forces of yin and yang. The taijitu represents an ancient Chinese understanding of how things work. The outer circle represents the entirety of perceivable phenomena, while the shapes within the circle represent the interaction of two principles or aspects, called "yin" (black) and "yang" (white), which cause the phenomena to appear in their peculiar way. Each of them contains an element or seed of the other, and they cannot exist without each other. In Western culture, the dichotomy of good and evil is often taken as a paradigm for other dichotomies. In Chinese philosophy, the paradigmatic dichotomy of yin and yang does not generally give preference or moral superiority to one side of the dichotomy, and dichotomies are linked to cyclical processes rather than progress. Excessive yin or yang state is often viewed to be unbalanced and undesirable.
