Yin Yang

In the world of tattoo yin yang is one of the top choices in designs for men and women. Yin Yang is about harmony and balance. It is about the dualities, black and white, positive and negative, good and bad, male and female, darkness and light... all forces in life that seem to battle against each other. In it's essence it represents the balance in order to keep the energy flowing. Like electricity, both poles (positive and negative) are needed in order to keep the power moving. Balancing the two opposites in our lives is what makes a person whole and complete. The yin-yang symbol holds its roots in Taoism/Daoism, a Chinese religion and philosophy. In the Tao philosophy each polarity contains it's opposite, like the day contains the seed of night with the moon hidden in the sky, and the night the seed of day with the hidden sun.
