Bō (剝) — Splitting Apart

Mountain above Earth — the roof peels away, the last yang line at the summit yielding to the five yin lines below. "Do not go anywhere." This is not a time for action; it's a time for waiting out the deterioration. What can't hold shouldn't be forced to hold. The single yang line at the top becomes the seed of the next cycle — something is always preserved through the dissolution.
