the quiet rule that opposites don't repel each other—they hold the whole universe together
means The state of having two opposite poles, qualities, or directions—like positive and negative charge, north and south, or two clashing viewpoints—where the contrast itself defines the system.
from From the Latin 'polus,' meaning the end of an axis—itself borrowed from Greek 'polos,' the pivot or hinge on which the heavens were imagined to turn. 'Polarity' arrived as a scientific term, built to describe magnets and electricity, where every force politely arranges itself into two ends. From the spin of the sky to the tug of a compass needle, the word has always pointed both ways at once.
