Yin and Yang Meaning
The Yin and Yang in Feng Shui
The Yin represents the feminine, repose and Yang the masculine movement.For Chinese sages of antiquity Yin and Yang are born of "Wu Chi", the Tao, the original steam this figure represented by a perfect circle, a uterus, an unfertilized egg, a great void.
Once fertilized (the Big Bang, the beginning of the universe) comes the first expression of life, "Tai Chi" or Yin and Yang, two forms of energy interact in the universe as they grow and divide the circle into two halves together Yin (black) and one Yang (white).
Each side is a time of change, the transition from Yin to Yang's "Creation" and the transition to Yin Yang is the "Return". The representation of Yin and Yang, two independent means balancing energy in motion. These forces are present all around us.
The Yin is the feminine, earth, moon, night, shadow, stillness, descending it, so moving, the cold, the soft.
The Yang is masculine, sky, sun, day, light, activity, movement, upward, hot, how hard.
The Yin (rest) and Yang (movement) generate constant cycles of change in which each becomes the other, when the Yin Yang and vice versa (interaction) appears wanes.
This interaction generates energy emanations that give life to all beings. We can see this interaction in nature for example in the form of the 4 seasons, the yang is reflected in the summer and yin in the winter chill.
In modern representation of Yin and Yang, the black dot in the white part indicates that exists within the Yin Yang and vice versa.
The Yin and Yang are relative and not absolute. They emerge from the Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang.
The Yin and Yang in turn emerge Movement and Stillness. In Feng Shui, Ying and Yang has a different conception which explain in school forms.
