Yin Yang

In Ancient Chinese philosophy, yin and yang; Chinese: 陰 陽 yīn yáng pronounced in Korean as Um/Yang, lit. “dark-light”, “negative-positive”) is a concept of dualism, describing how obviously opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they may give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. In Chinese cosmology, the universe creates itself out of a primary chaos of material energy, organized into the cycles of Yin and Yang and formed into objects and lives. Yin is the receptive and Yang the active principle, seen in all forms of change and difference such as the annual cycle (winter and summer), the landscape (north-facing shade and south-facing brightness), female and male, the formation of both disorder and order.
