Yin and Yang
Yin and Yang are two sides of one movement, complementing and transforming into each other.
| Yang 陽 | Yin 陰 | |
|---|---|---|
| Movement | outward, active | inward, calm |
| Within you | initiating, acting | weighing, absorbing |
| Shadow | rushing | doubting, withdrawing |
- Relative: day is more Yang than night.
- Not male and female, not good and bad.
- Five elements × two faces = 10 Heavenly Stems.
