life.......battery......yin/yang
Reading further about Eastern Mysticism, I am at the section speaking about the Chinese and the yin and the yang. The symbol that represents it is very enlightening. The full circle, if you will (cyclical motion)...the interconnected of everything in the universe, the polar opposites...with each leading into the other, the necessity of each existing for the universe to be.I have thought of it as like a single cell battery.
They say the yang (white) represents man, while the dark represents female. The polar opposites. So many differences between man and woman, not one is better or worse than the other.
But, like the battery with its positive and negative poles. In order for the usefulness and the life of the battery to exist, both poles must be used.
So, for humans, both poles must be used....for life and usefulness. The man being rational and the woman intuitive. ....together...they make....
This from the Chinese, dating back thousands of years.
We are suppose to be different.
just some thoughts.....
Of course, the yin and yang represents more than just man and woman...but everything with opposite poles.

Like the idea of balance...both have strenght...compliment each other...
But watch out for the double fire sign horse female...lol...
I have not heard about 'ba gua'. I can see it looks like there is a lot of information behind it. Hocus pocus?...you are not a believer Mimi? It is an ancient philosophy, turned into a religion, with the yin/yang symbol representing its meaning. That is my understanding anyway. To not believe is fine as well....I would think with the balance of things, there would need to be non-believers.
Hmmm, 645 seems to be your number. If there is ever a chance I can play them...I will be sure to remember them in your presence. (gambling of course....
this all reminds me, this lady who is supposed to be my internet girlfriend, she told me, the other day she went out with one of her friends, and when at a dance club, her friend 'Crack Blocked" her. Yup, she was just getting started talking to some guy, when her drunk friend got in the middle and messed it all up.
I reminded my internet girlfriend, "Hey, I thought you were supposed to be with me.. Sheesh, out there messing around me. "
My ex-gf was a horse and I am a rat. They say for the rat never get together with a horse and vise versa...from what I know...the Chinese were correct. To top it off, she was a Taurus.
my ex's sign was a cow. I was a charley horse.
Do crosses work and repelling you?
It may be time to bring in the Exercise-ist!
You know Robert....
For that balance, I need somebody with just a touch of pepper and a lot of sugar. (the spices of life).
Now we need to figure out your balance.
The cow didn't work for you.
You need a lamb with a touch of salsa and peppercorns.
You are a great woman....I would recommend staying on your good side though.
Okay L.L., lets figure out what sorta spice you need. You need a docile cat, that will scratch just when showing affection. To top if off, this kitty would have to bring some milk along.
I may need a lady whose sign is Female Rabbit.
L.L. is a great lady with her life more in line than what mine is. I am sure I would only bring strife...to life....for her.
Not to mention, she lives across the border, Canadians hate us.
They might say they like us, but they don't.
electricified his junk.
It blew off Miclee's..... well maybe you just
scratch off the crunchy bits like burnt toast.
I called him (Mic) half baked...lol...
Be back later.....
and yes....
Confusion....I am trying to teach you about it.
Add the butter knife and I think we've achieved east meets west
Or north meets south.....
Hocus Pocus, THEY are gone.
Yeah they do initially, but they should stay away from each other
Meh to you and Taurus women
I am one
Meh to men being rational
and women being intuitive
That is stereotyping
I can be rational
But as for the whole yin and yang philosophy, I do agree that one needs night and day; dark and bright; good and bad; men and women
What is different and what is same? What is better and better than what? What is worse and worst than who or what.
I think I confused you anyway.
Mimi!
