The Juxtaposition Cross of Conservation is named here for Gate 32 and Gate 42. Its first article reads Gate 32 as an instinct for what will last, and caution about change undertaken for its own sake, now the more exposed gate, and Gate 42 as the energy to carry a process through to its natural end rather than abandoning it midway. What it does not trace is where the four gates sit on the wheel itself, the Human Design mandala's division of its sixty four gates into four Quarters, and by that measure this cross draws one gate from each of the four.
Gate 32, the personality gate here, falls in the Quarter of Duality, purpose fulfilled through bonding. Gate 42, its personality partner, falls in the Quarter of Initiation, purpose fulfilled through mind. Behind them, Gate 56 falls in the Quarter of Civilization, purpose fulfilled through form, and Gate 60 falls in the Quarter of Mutation, purpose fulfilled through transformation.
So the instinct for what lasts and the completed process the first article reads on this cross's surface answer to the arcs of bonding and mind, while the storyteller's stimulation and the accepted limit beneath them answer to the arcs of form and transformation. The same pair, exchanged, is this cross's own reversal, the Juxtaposition Cross of Completion, and, held instead in the Left Angle family, the Cross of Limitation, both orderings; the Right Angle family carries the identical pair too, as the Cross of Maya, both orderings. Four gates, four different Quarters, no pair sharing an arc: this cross draws its whole reading from every corner of the wheel's own purpose rather than concentrated in one.
