44. Lack of Firmness · 姤 九三

Line 3 of hexagram 44

In practice

You know adverse conditions or people exist and you can recognize them, but you're tempted to let them influence you. It will take a great effort to set them aside.

The poetry

Buttocks without skin; the walk falters. Danger. No great fault.

九三:臀无膚,其行次且,厲,无大咎。

象曰:其行次且,行未牽也。
