陰陽 (in-yō) “yin-yang”
Yin is dark, cold, receptive, magnetic.
Yang is light, hot, giving, active.
Both are present in everything. Rather than being opposites, they are two sides of the same coin. A cup is Yang, but the empty space inside is Yin.
Daoists believe that everything contains the seed of its opposite; in this way Yin and Yang nourish and empower each other. Yin can become Yang, just as night becomes day.
