Many ancient Chinese scholars believed qi was the binding force that created this universe. Yin Yang is popularly associated with qi. Qi refers to the energy, or air in Mandarin, in the universe. It believes there to be different forces residing in your body and in order to fully utilize it, you have to find the qi inside. Tai Chi emphasis body harmony and finding the right balance, the same as Yin Yang. The symbol is widely used in Tai Chi, a form of martial art. The symbol of Yin Yang is a circle engulfed by two droplets of water, one black and one white, with one dot of the opposing color in each droplet. All these may be considered complementary of each other rather than opposing. The many dualities are believed to have shaped the universe.

For each category Yin has, Yang has the opposite of it. Yang would include anything masculine, rich, young, bright, heaven and hard, etc. For example, Yin would include the feminine, poor, old, dark, earth, soft, etc.

In general, Yin represents all things that have a darker tone, feminine or a grimmer touch, while Yang represents all things that are bright, positive, or masculine. Yin and Yang technically are two opposing things, yet they are interconnected and interchangeable. The name Yin Yang itself suggests the idea it advocates for, the balance of two things. The word Yin in Mandarin means "cloudy" or "grim" while Yang means "bright" or "sunny".

There is a force and connects all things, the causation dual. Yin Yang is a concept of dualism, meaning two seemingly unrelated and even opposing things actually complements and supplements each other. The ancient Chinese mythology suggests there was a state of organizing when there's chaos. Then, life formed and the universe came to be because of Yin Yang. Before the universe came to be, it was in a chaotic, unorganized state of matters.
