Description
Yin Yang - Tajitu.
The symbol for Yin Yang is called the Taijitu. Most people just call it the yin yang symbol in the west. The taijitu symbol has been found in more than one culture and over the years has come to represent Taoism.
The word Yin comes out to mean “shady side” and Yang “sunny side”.
A starting definition: Yin/Yang: Two halves that together complete wholeness. Yin and yang are also the starting point for change. When something is whole, by definition, it’s unchanging and complete. So when you split something into two halves, yin/yang, it upsets the equilibrium of wholeness. Both halves are chasing after each other as they seek a new balance with each other. It is the concept of duality forming a whole. Over thousands of years, quite a bit has been sorted and grouped under various Yin Yang classification systems.
