[edit] Summary

Description
English: The Yin and Yang Symbol with black representing yin and white representing yang.

The symbol is a visual depiction of the intertwined duality of all things in nature, a common theme in Taoism. It is believed to be derived from the 11th century Tiandi Zhiran Hetu (Heaven and Earth’s Natural Diagram of the River), Hetu (Diagram of River), Luoshu (Chart of Luo), Xiantian tu (Diagram of Preceding Heaven) and Taijitu (太極圖) (Diagram of the Great Ultimate).

Here the diagram is shown against a feather edged grey background to ensure clarity when displayed over black or white.
Polski: Znak ten składa się z białej lewej strony z czarną kropką na górze i czarnej prawej strony z białą kropką na górze. Jest bardzo znanym znakiem i jest jednym z niewielu znaków, po którym rozpoznajemy, ze rzecz oznakowana nim, jest z Japonii. Złożenie tych dwóch cześci oznacza na jeżyk polski słowa: ,,W każdej złej rzeczy jest coś dobrego i w każdej dobrej rzeczy jest coś złego.
