I'm editing a new book on Yin-Yang Theory from
Dr. Shan-Tung Hsu of the
Blue Mountain Feng Shui Institute, and I'm finding it incredibly interesting to dive deeper into this subject.
We see the
tai chi symbol - the icon of yin and yang - everywhere now, but often the wrong image is used. Can you guess which of these is the correct expression of the
tai chi?

My favorite marketing misuse was in an ad for Salem Menthol ciagrettes; the designer had used the most negative of all four of these (counterclockwise yin over yang), essentially equating cigarettes with death. Take a drag of that!

I never noticed there were variations. I'd guess C.

Actually, C is the killer cigarette ad version...
My guess is B

It's A, Suz! Rolling clockwise, yang over yin.
So sorry I missed your call tonight - was doing some last minute shopping. Nice to hear your voice on my voicemail!
Merry Merry Christmas!
