Perhaps you have heard of the Yin and Yang symbol. If not, it originated in ancient Chinese philosophy and shows a balance between two opposite elements. The original image shows dark and light portions of half a circle, but slightly overlapping into the other half. Each half describes opposite but interconnected forces and phenomena of life. Examples are typically in pairs, such as day and night, light and dark, hot and cold, good and bad, full moon and new moon, positive and negative and so on. One cannot exist without the other. These elements coexist in all of nature and create duality of our life on earth.
In the book Your Eternal Identity the symbol is meant to represent the need for the balance of opposite forces and change.Yin is black and associated with the moon, the feminine or shadow side of life, such as the mysterious. Yang is white and associated with the sun, the masculine side of life where things are more out in the open. Neither is more important or more powerful than the other. Both are needed in equal parts for harmony to exist.
In the yin cycle, most of the action happens under the radar. This is a great time to adopt a mindset of reflection, intuition and incubation. This allows you to chill out, breathe into your inner energy and listen to the still small voice within. Yin cycles often call you to be passive. I encourage you to be aware of the difference between yin and yang and be willing to be transformed by a readiness to embrace and invite change.
Next week we will look at how we can adapt to newly formed conditions. As you do, you are able to make minor changes and attract unique and new situations that improve your life!
