In Daoist philosophy, dark and light, yin and yang, arrive in the Tao Te Ching at chapter 42. [29] It becomes sensible from an initial quiescence or emptiness ( wuji, sometimes symbolized by an empty circle), and continues moving until quiescence is reached again.

Sinologists and historical linguists have reconstructed Middle Chinese pronunciations from data in the (7th century CE) Qieyun rhyme dictionary and later rhyme tables, which was subsequently used to reconstruct Old Chinese phonology from rhymes in the (11th–7th centuries BCE) Shijing and phonological components of Chinese characters.

He says that it would be proper to begin with yin and yang before Five Elements because the former: "lay, as it were, at a deeper level in Nature, and were the most ultimate principles of which the ancient Chinese could conceive.
