Yin and Yang is not about one thing being good or the other being bad. Some things in the world are thought to be ‘yin’ and some things are thought to be ‘yang’. Qi brought everything to life, and yin and yang groups these things together into opposites. This is like invisible energy that makes things come to life. In Chinese philosophy, all life comes from a force called qi (pronounced chi). It can explain times of change like the change of the seasons. Yin and Yang can be applied to all things in the natural world, like summer and winter. Also, night turns into day, so they cannot easily be separated. One example of Yin and Yang would be old and new, female and male, and light and dark.ĭay cannot exist without night, and night cannot exist without day. They contradict each other but one cannot exist without the other.
In Chinese culture, Yin and Yang means that two opposites form part of a whole. The balance or coming together of opposite forces is one way to think about the principle of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang is a Chinese philosophy about balance. If you think about magnets with different poles (north and south), the north and south attract and come together, while like for like (south and south) repel each other. Have you ever heard that opposites attract?
