The Art Of Yin And Yang In Life

The east has long known about yin and yang. These concepts factor into a lot of their culture. In the West, there is not as much appreciation or understanding of the two polarities. The basics of Yin and Yang are that each is an essential polarity or aspect of the universe, each balances the other and each somehow contains a hint of the other. Yin for example, is understood to be feminine or dark or shadow or energy. Yang is understood to be masculine, light and direction. Yin is like an energy of being or existing, like a still kind of passive energy. And yang is an energy of movement and action and doing..

The polarities of life; they go on forever. They cascade. Some people only focus on tiny detail polarity, like, an artist putting a finishing touch on his painting. Or, a girl choosing a specific word to get their point across or connect.

They might choose just a tiny subtle and soft yin finish. Or they might choose a harsh, yang slash of colour, but, whatever they choose, there still is a greater polarity above. That of their own nature. Like, are they a soft gentle creative type or are they a harsh aggressive dominating type? And even that is subjective. Whichever they are, they can still use certain words of a different polarity or paint in a different way. And then, we can look at the company they work for or the career they’ve chosen. Are they a perfect complement to their employer? Perhaps they worked for a big mover and shaker company. And they consider themselves aggressive and yang but are they actually compared to the real spirit of the company they work for? Everything is relative. What seems harsh to one person is completely normal to another. What seems yin, soft or feminine to one might in another situation or relationship seem the exact opposite. It all depends, on what we are comparing. Knowing this, if a person feels their nature is more feminine, when placed in a quiet village of feminine women,
they might actually seem directed, ambitious and masculine.

And so we can see the polarities stack or cascade or grow. And then, we can look at the company they’re working for, and it’s place in the city it’s located in. First, we looked at individual creations in regards to yin and yang; then we looked at the individual them-self, then we looked at the company that individual works for. Even bigger than that we can look at the city the company is located in. Maybe, it’s a massive dominating company in hawaii, which is a pretty chilled out place. But if you were to transplant that business to New York, where everyone has a huge dominating company in a very driven and ambitious and go-go-go environment, it might appear as a subtle smaller toned down enterprise. The polarity of the city alters all the polarity energies of the people and things in the city. If the city is Yang, things inside look different, if a thing is Yin, it will feel different (in how it’s perceived, again,everything is subjective).

So really it’s all play. It’s fun sometimes to talk about when the polarity of one’s words or actions or one’s nature but in the end it doesn’t really matter. All that matters is what’s right at the present moment. I think i’m going to end this in a subtle yin way. We’re done.

I Want Some of This and I Want Some of That

Maybe there’s something in your life that you’ve wanted or are wanting and you’ve always considered it ‘hard to get’.

Intention-manifestation works, based simply and specifically on what we think. (If you’re unfamiliar with the principle of intention-manifestation, it is that the true ’cause’ in any ’cause-and-effect’ scenario is our thoughts and decisions. Nothing that happens in life comes without a thought first, and so focusing on having the thoughts we wish is the most powerful and productive way to generate a certain effect. Steve Pavlina wrote an excellent post on this concept some years ago which is still an awesome read today.)

So if you’re always thinking everything you desire is ‘hard to get…’

What follows is the result that what you want is hard to get.

If on the other hand, if you’re open to getting what you want in a bilion ways, it can come through so many channels. It starts to become easy. Say you want a new belt; you may think things such as “I never see any belt that suits me, I have a really small waist, it’s hard to find, I don’t feel good paying [blank] amount, I don’t even know what stores have belts that suit me, etc”. Thinking these things translates into a task that will end up being hard.

If you’re more like, “Hey man I don’t know, I could find a belt on the ground tomorrow. My dad could empty out his closest and give me one. I could connect with a tailor or a clothing maker who could hook me up with one in no time. Tomorrow I could meet somebody… yeah!” All of a sudden it’s a different story. You’re thinking that it’s easy to get what you want and that there are a lot of ways to do so. Keep in mind it’s important to think these things if you want them to happen. and it could happen with bigger things than just a belt, like, a new piece of technology (ie: iphone, laptop) or a new place to live.

A woman I know wanted a space of her own, badly. She was out of a job, had no steady income at the time, no reserve funds at the time. To almost everyone else it would look impossible; it would look so difficult to get a place. “What am I going to do?” would be the main thought, or “I’ll have to settle for some retail job or something”. But she did not think this way. She chatted with me about it one day, all excited, and telling me: “I know I’m going to have a place of my own. I know it’s going to come easily. I’m going to be out by September and I can’t wait. I’m so excited Jay!” One day we had a conversation where she was explaining to me what her new place was going to look like, the decor and how good it would feel to live in her own space. Very detailed, very honest, truly having a wonderful dream-life feel about it. The very next day, her family moved her brother and his fiance out of the basement, and gave the space to her.

This occurred the *next day*, she didn’t even have to wait until September. The root cause of all this was her INTENTION. Because she thought and focused and intended on that space coming easily, she didn’t once bitch about how hard it would be to get it and she had no job and money and oh oh it’s going to be an impossible dream, forcing her to have to work like a dog. She was open to getting things easily, and she did.

It seems that up until now in our society, a good portion of people are all focused on *how hard everything is* and they can rarely think or say out loud that awesome or imaginative things could come into their lives. Not for one second do they think “I could get something good, easily”, and I for one, think it’s time for a change.

There are some other interesting nuances of the principle, but the basics are “think happy thoughts”, Peter-Pan style.

If there’s anything you’ve wanted for a while and haven’t been getting, perhaps give intention-manifestion a try. What could it hurt you to think different things for fun? Try it on something small that you can really believe you’ll get and that you could really see coming easily, the results may be surprising.
