This listing is for an attractive necklace bearing a Yin -Yang pendant hanging on a 16 1/2” black leather cord. It is non-adjustable and fastens with an easy open push closure. The pendant has a shiny silver tone plating with resin-filled centers, and the cord is accented with metal springs and beads that meet in the center just above the pendant.

Yin Yang is a beloved symbol that represents the ancient Chinese understanding of how things work. The outer encompassing circle represents "everything", while the dark and light shapes within the circle represent the interaction of two energies, called "yin" (dark) and "yang" (light), which cause everything to happen.

The yin and yang are not completely black or white, just as things in life are rarely completely black or white, and they cannot exist without each other. While "yin" would be dark, passive, downward, cold, contracting, and weak, "yang" would be bright, active, upward, hot, expanding, and strong.

The shape of the yin and yang sections of the symbol, actually gives you a sense of the continual movement of these two energies, yin to yang and yang to yin, causing everything to happen: just as things expand and contract, and temperature changes from hot to cold.
