| yin-yang |
Yin corresponds to darkness, coldness, dampness and Earth; yang to light, warmth, dryness and Heaven. They are in constant conflict, but neither force can ever completely vanquish the other. This is beautifully illustrated in the taijitu diagram , showing a little yin within the yang and vice versa. This theory was used to explain the existence of gui and shen, the cycles of the seasons and the nature of different foods and herbs.
