When I looked at the photo below, I thought it had a sort of feng shui, you know, a calming effect - a metaphorical balance between wind and water, or a pleasing arrangement of objects.

However, a closer look at the geometrical symmetry made me rethink the symbolism. It is more like Yin Yang . . .

Yin YangThe relationship between yin and yang is often described in terms of sunlight playing over a mountain and in the valley. Yin (literally the ’shady place’ or ‘north slope’) is the dark area occluded by the mountain’s bulk, while yang (literally the ’sunny place’ or ’south slope’) is the brightly lit portion.

Well, whatever. I still feel calmed when I have one (or both) close at hand.
