Philosophy? Or rambling?
Wuji is central to Daoist teachings. Wuji is the great emptiness that contains nothing, yet everything. Every choice, every decision, every consequence. Wuji is perhaps described as stillness, harmony, and tranquility.
When you disturb Wuji, you create chaos, and imbalance (imagine pouring a shot of cream into a cup of coffee to visualize the disturbance). Your life, and the choices you make, create the disturbance in the void. Ying and Yang are the forces to return to it's base value of peace and tranquility. This is called Taichi (Taiji).
Taichiquan is a physical expression of Taiji. It's motions are calm, balanced, controlled. It's intent is focused, smooth, relaxed.
Of course, the Dao also says that when you try to define it, you're wrong. So there's that.
