Collection: Zen Series Hats

The Yin Yang symbol () is an ancient Chinese symbol that represents balance, duality, and harmony in the universe. It comes from Taoism (Daoism)—a Chinese philosophy and spiritual tradition that emphasizes living in harmony with the Tao (Dao), or the "Way."

In Taoist thought and Chinese medicine, health, harmony, and well-being come from balancing Yin and Yang energies. Imbalance can lead to illness or disharmony

Focal point: 

The rocks serve as anchor points for observation, guiding the viewer's gaze and providing a subject for peaceful contemplation.
