Yin Yang Shield

The Yin Yang Shield is used to delve into the psyche deeply and quickly, and to travel great distances. It can be ridden like a sled into the slithering pond of the underworld. Words, voices, emotional attacks, projections, and blame are all sliced and broken down into the parts from which they originate. The balanced masculine and feminine nature of this shield distributes the attacking forces evenly, to prevent us from slipping into the vulnerable separation between our male and female selves.
