23. The Fall · 剝 上九
Line 6 of hexagram 23
In practice
Little by little the adverse situations will give way, and gradually adversity will turn into opportunity.
The poetry
A great fruit left uneaten. The noble person gains a carriage; the petty person's hut is stripped.
上九：碩果不食，君子得輿，小人剝廬。
象曰：君子得輿，民所載也。小人剝廬，終不可用也。
