Tai Chi is a Chinese vision of the universe. The ancient classic I Ching said: "Tai Chi begot two extremes (yin & yang). Two extremes begot four signs. Four signs begot eight divinatory symbols. Eight divinatory symbols determine good and bad fortunes." "Tai" means hugeness, and "Chi" means beginning or peak, referring to the integrity when heaven and earth were one and undivided. The wisdom of "Tai Chi" asserts that yin and yang cannot exist without each other, and that they interact with each other continually and endlessly to create all motions and all living beings.
