Yin and
yang, the two opposing principles, were created by ancient Chinese. Let`s make
it easier to comprehend by some examples. Males are yang, females are yin. Day
is yang, night is yin. Movement is yang, stillness is yin. Fire is yang, water
is yin. The sun is yang, the moon is yin.
Actually, everything in the world contains two aspects which are
the so-called yin and yang. These two parts are opposite, but at the
same time, they are unitive. Yin and yang are changing all the time. If yin
increases, yang will reduce. On the contrary, if yang increases, yin will
reduce. It is their balance that makes everything go naturally and
harmoniously.
For example, during the day, yang goes up and yin goes
down, people feel full of energy and enthusiastic , but at night, yang
goes down and yin goes up, then we go to sleep. If we break this balance and
stay up too late, that will do harm to our health.
Sometimes yin and yang
can even transform into each other.
