Hexagram 50, Dǐng (The Cauldron): Line 1
鼎卦初六 · 火风鼎 · 中文版
初六：鼎颠趾，利出否，得妾以其子，无咎。
The line (Legge)
The first SIX, divided, shows the caldron overthrown and its feet turned up. (But) there will be advantage in its getting rid of what was bad in it. (Or it shows us) the concubine (whose position is improved) by means of her son. There will be no error.
Small Image commentary
'The caldron is overturned, and its feet turned upwards:' - but this is not (all) contrary (to what is right). 'There will be advantage in getting rid of what was bad:' - thereby (the subject of the line) will follow the more noble (subject of the fourth line).
象曰：鼎颠趾，未悖也。利出否，以从贵也。
In plain words
The cauldron is turned upside down; it is favourable to empty out what is spoiled; like taking a concubine for the sake of her son, there is no fault. The first line is the cauldron's feet at the bottom; turning it over is just the way to clear out old matter, turning bad to good. The Small Image says turning it over does not go against the way, and emptying out what is spoiled is in order to follow what is noble.
Applying it to your situation
If something has been turned upside down, this line suggests using the chance to clear out old things. What does this upset let you throw out?
Position
A broken (yin) line in the first place, which is a yang (odd) place, so it is not in its proper place. Its partner is line 4; one is yin and the other yang, so they respond to each other.
If this line moves
With this line moving alone, Dǐng changes into Hexagram 14 Dà Yǒu (Great Possession). The Jiaoshi Yilin verse for this change (Chinese): 焦氏易林·鼎之大有.
The hexagram
Hexagram 50 Dǐng (The Cauldron). The Judgment: Ding gives the intimation of great progress and success.
