Tao Symbolism

The Tao symbol symbolizes nature's law and the structure of the universe: two spirals or two magatama make up the symbol, the universe represented by either side may exist, uniform cosmic asymmetry withing space-time itself, and asymmetric polarity exists.

This thought brings about a belief that the west and east, who are finally after thousands of years, are realizing the benefits to both becoming a more cohesive whole, i.e. the West with its analytical prowess and the East with its intuitive heritage.

Both East and West can achieve greater humanity by allowing for both the analytical and the intuitive. A kind of blending of both the left and right brain hemispheres balancing things out from neither too much analytical or too much intuitive.

Yin is considered in dualistic monism as the mirror image of yang; yang is considered in dualistic monism as the mirror image of yin. 

Yin-yang (analytical-intuitive), makes sense to me.
