陰陽之氣
陰陽屬性相反的兩種氣。“氣”是構(gòu)成一切有形之物的基本材料。“氣”有陰陽兩種相反的屬性,因而有“陰氣”和“陽氣”之分。“陰氣”與“陽氣”按照一定的規(guī)則發(fā)生交互作用,“陰陽之氣”的交互作用推動(dòng)萬物的生成與變化。同時(shí),事物之間也可能通過“陰陽之氣”的流轉(zhuǎn),實(shí)現(xiàn)相互的感應(yīng)與影響。
The Qi(Vital Force) of Yin and Yang
The qi(vital force) of yin and yang refers to the two types of qi–an element that constitutes all things corporeal. With opposite attributes, the qi of yin and qi of yang interact with each other in accordance with certain laws. Such interaction is a catalyst for the generation and changing of all things. In addition, the circulation of the two types of qi may actualize mutual perception and influence between the things.
引例
故天之且風(fēng),草木未動(dòng)而鳥已翔矣;其且雨也,陰曀未集而魚已噞矣:以陰陽之氣相動(dòng)也。(《淮南子·泰族訓(xùn)》)(因此天要起風(fēng),草木還未搖動(dòng)但鳥已高飛;天要下雨,陰云還未聚集但魚已在水面不停張口吸氣:這是由陰氣和陽氣相互驅(qū)動(dòng)造成的。)
Therefore, aware of the rising of wind, birds fly away before grass and trees start to sway. Aware of the coming of rain, fish swim to the surface to breathe before dark clouds start to gather. In both cases, the early reactions of birds and fish are caused by the interaction between the qi of yin and the qi of yang. (Huainanzi)
