Cancer is considered a yin sign in astrology.
In traditional Chinese medicine, cancer is believed to be caused by an imbalance of yin and yang energies in the body. When these energies are not in harmony, it can lead to the development of cancerous growths. Treatment in traditional Chinese medicine aims to restore the balance of yin and yang to help the body heal and prevent the spread of cancer.

The symbol of duality represents opposing forces or ideas that complement each other, such as light and dark, good and evil, or yin and yang. Understanding this symbol helps us see that balance in life comes from embracing and harmonizing these contrasting elements. Just as light cannot exist without darkness, finding balance means accepting and integrating both positive and negative aspects of life.
The ancient civilization that emphasized the natural blending of masculine and feminine principles as part of the procreative process is the Daoist tradition in ancient China. Daoism views the interplay of Yin (feminine) and Yang (masculine) as essential to harmony in the universe and life itself. This duality is reflected in various aspects of life, including spirituality, health, and sexuality, promoting the idea that balance between these forces is crucial for creation and sustenance.

Yin/Yang is not an invention, it is an ancient Chinese philosophy. I do not believe (not sure) there is information on exactly what century it came about.
Yes, the Yin-Yang sign has symmetry.Another take:No, the Yin and Yang are not symmetric. In order for symmetry any mirror image of the Yin-Yang must be indistinguishable from the original. In order to test and visualize this, take a Yin-Yang image into an editing tool like Photoshop. Convert the Yin-Yang to a negative (swap white for black and vice versa, which is the same as rotating it 180 degrees), and then perform a horizontal flip. This is the same as viewing the image in a mirror.Compare to the original. Does it look the same?
