Yin and Yang Koi Fish Ceramic Tree Decoration

In Chinese culture, Yin and Yang represent the two opposite principles in nature. Yin is feminine/ negative nature of things and Yang stands for the masculine/ positive side. Yin and Yang are in pairs, such as the moon and the sun, female and male, dark and bright, cold and hot, etc. Their interaction is thought to maintain the harmony of the universe and to influence everything within it. Koi fish are a common symbol in both Chinese culture and Feng shui. Koi represent good fortune, luck, Prosperity and riches. Koi also are associated with perseverance in adversity and strength of purpose. Also in Japanese culture, they symbolise male strength and individualism. Further, they represent that you are an individual that does not conform to society’s norms and are not easily influenced by others.
