The concept of yin and yang

1. The philosophical meaning of Yin and Yang is the basic category of China's ancient philosophy. Qi is one thing and two bodies, divided into yin and yang. Yin and Yang are the attributes of the unity of opposites of Qi itself, which means the unity of opposites. The so-called "Yin and Yang are divided into two" (Yin and Yang Meridian). Yin and Yang is a dialectical relationship, which is both opposite and unified.

The unity of opposites between Yin and Yang is the universal law of the universe: Yin and Yang not only run through China's ancient philosophy, but also combine with astronomy, calendar, medicine, agriculture and other specific disciplines-and become the theoretical basis of each specific discipline, promoting the development of each specific discipline. The opposition, mutual root, growth and decline and transformation of Yin and Yang constitute the contradictory movement of Yin and Yang, which has become the basic content of Yin and Yang theory.

Yin and yang attributes. Everything that is moving, extroverted, ascending, warm, invisible, bright and exciting is Yang and belongs to Yang.

Everything that is still, downward, dark, defensive, cold, tangible and restrained belongs to Yin.

With this classification, everything in the world can be classified in this way, for example, it is yang during the day, yin at night, yang in the morning, yin in the afternoon, yang in summer, yin in winter, yang in the upper body and yin in the lower body.

Unity of opposites of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang are not absolute, but relative, and can be transformed into each other and cannot be decomposed. Conspiracy is yang, and yang has yin. Look at the problem in two. There is a pot of flowers on the table. The table is yin and the vase is yang. According to the size, the table belongs to Yang, and the vase belongs to Yin. Deciding your yin and yang depends on who the other person is.

There are still a few things to know about Yin and Yang.

1: Yin and Yang sympathy. Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four elephants, and four elephants sound like gossip. Yin and Yang are a process of splitting into two, and they are mutually induced and reconciled in the process of movement.

2. Balance of Yin and Yang. The unity of opposites between yin and yang is not static, but has a certain degree of transformation.
