[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 w: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 Ultimate Power).

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.
Español: El Símbolo del Yin y el Yang con el color negro representando al yin y el color blanco representando al yang.

El símbolo es una representación visual de la dualidad entrelazada de todas las cosas en la naturaleza, un tema comúnmente tratado en el Taoísmo. Se cree que deriva de obras del siglo XI, entre ellas Tiandi Zhiran Hetu (Diagrama Natural del Río del Cielo y de la Tierra), Hetu (Diagrama del Río), Luoshu (Gráfico de Luo), Xiantian tu (Diagrama del Cielo Precursor) y Taijitu (太極圖) (Diagrama del Poder Supremo).

Aquí el diagrama está contorneado por una línea suavizada gris para asegurar claridad al ser mostrado sobre un fondo blanco o negro.
