Sacred Symbols
Yin Yang Necklace
 
The Yin Yang symbol is one of the most recognisable sacred symbols. It represents the principle that all things have an opposite (and indeed every shade in between the two opposites); but that all aspects make up the whole. To achieve a balanced life we must acknowledge both our light and shadow, our feminine and our masculine. We cannot be one without the other and if one overpowers the other, then we create disharmony.
It is tempting to deny the shadow and strive only for the good but it is in experiencing or witnessing the dark that we are able to know and learn what we do and do not not want in our lives. If there was no polarity as symbolised by the Yin Yang then how would we ever know happiness, sadness, love, anger, excitement, joy or any of the many expressions available to us. It is through experiencing the variations of the whole that we experience the many shades of ourselves and the world around us.
 
We could also use the Yin Yang as a symbol of peace; to wear it as as a reminder that we are all part of the whole and infinitely connected to each other, whilst expressing ourselves individually in accordance with our own individual truths, cultures and beliefs. We are after all just divine energy enjoying a physical experience on a magical planet of polarity as symbolised in the Yin Yang.
