The Properties of Yin and Yang
Yin is the opposite of Yang and Yang is the opposite of Yin. Things that are formless are positive (Yang) and things that are massive are negative (Yin). Therefore, when defined in Yin and Yang, an electron is positive and a proton is negative.
Poor is positive (Yang) and wealthy is negative (Yin). Yang dissipates and evaporates. It is becoming less and less; therefore, it is poor. Yin condenses and accumulates. It is becoming more and more; therefore, it is wealthy.
The top is positive and the bottom is negative. The top is hot and the bottom is cold. In the northern hemisphere, the north is cold and the south is hot. Therefore, the south is positive, and the north is negative. Assuming the south is at the top, then, the left-hand side is east. The sun rises from the east. The left-hand side is positive. The sunsets on the west, right-hand side. The right hand is negative. Negative condenses and is more massive. The sun first rises and then sets. From yang (positive) to yin (negative). This is why many leaders are left-handed, most people are right-handed.
