Yin line - Yin

Japanese: 陰爻 - いんこう
Yin line - Yin
A symbol used in the Yin-Yang philosophy of ancient China, where a yang line is a single line and a yin line is two lines with a missing center. While a yang line represents "masculine," "strong," "moving," and "sunlight," a yin line represents "feminine," "obedient," "still," and "shade." In I Ching, a hexagram is created using these two lines, divided into yin and yang.

Japanese:
古代中国において考えられた陰陽思想に使われる記号で、陽爻は一本線、陰爻は中心が欠けた二線になる。陽爻が「男性的」「剛健」「動く」「日向」などを表すのに対し、陰爻は「女性的」「従順」「止まる」「日陰」などの意味合いがある。易では、この陰と陽に分けた二つの爻を用いて卦を作る。
