Positive and Negative
The positives and negatives of life sometimes become unbalanced. If you have more negative feelings you feel dark and angry. If you have positive things in your life and are pure you feel sad and lonely. This is because you see so much negative around you that it overwhelms you. You would do well to remember your negative center, because if you do you can thrive in these situations and become more balanced. If you are negative and have too much Yin in your life you can find yourself lashing out because you’re angry or restless. Remember that there is something good inside you, and you will have a balance that will stabilize you. Stability and focus are the result of the harmony of Yin and Yang. And eventually we all balance out. One symbol that will forever be remembered as one of peace will always show us that inside we strive for balance, the world, and our universe will balance out the negative and positive energies contained within its circle.
How does Yin-Yang balance effect you?
To truly have a centered and purposeful life you have to have some positiveness. If your life is nothing but negativity you will fail at everything you do, and you will feel terrible while doing it. When darkness comes does it not displace the light? If you have too much positive in your life then you are ignoring the darkness beneath the surface. Somewhere in the deep expanses of your unconscious mind lie a hidden self that will wither if not balanced.
Finding your center
In the Yin-Yang duality you can find balance by find your center. Your inner Yang or inner Yin is there for you to examine and meditate on, use this force to learn about the negative ones in your life so that you can control them. To find this perfect balance is not impossible, though you may think it is improbable. Our world has grown so much and diverged enough from a balanced way of life that it is hard to find the inner you, and balancing your life. Too much work and no play can make you dull. Too much food and no fasting can make you fat. Pleasure and pain are often confused and associated, yet they are not alike. In fact, they are the Yin-Yang of your sex life. Whether it is emotional or physical pain you endure, it shouldn’t outweigh the pleasure you have for a relationship. If you can find a balance of small things in you daily life then you might be able to tackle the tough one like relationships and your career. Although if you look at it another way, you might be one half of the Yin-Yang equation in your relationship.
Which one of us is the evil one?
As I said, no one thing is completely Yin or Yang. They are opposing forces or ideas, but they flow and change as night and day do. The lines of the separate parts swirl together and intertwine to create a system of opposing forces. And this is what you want for your life — balance. Too much of one thing is never good especially if you’re consuming it. Drinking too much alcohol and not sobering up is not a good balance. You could harm your relationships with other as well if you do one thing too much. Too much talking and not enough listening can sometimes be bad for your health if the person that’s talking is an angry woman. Anything in excess is bad for you, moderation of things as simple as cosmetics or condiments can be harmful to you. Too much spice can be a bad thing sometimes. So if you’re having health problems because of an inner balance you should remember this symbol. If you ever want to remember why you need balance in your life the nearest reminder of a life of excess and darkness may be closer than you think. For many, a positive “buzz-kill” will disrupt their fun times, but that’s why we all need enough positive people to outweigh the negative ones. The balance of earth has been disrupted too, we all must find our centers and help sway the forces to achieve a sustainable planet. Featured photo credit: Republic of Korea via flickr.com
