The Juxtaposition Cross of Experience is named here for Gate 35 and Gate 5. Its first article reads Gate 35 as a hunger for progress and for the feeling only a new experience can supply, now the more exposed gate, and Gate 5 as a fixed inner rhythm governing eating, sleeping and work. 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 35, the personality gate here, falls in the Quarter of Civilization, purpose fulfilled through form. Gate 5, its personality partner, falls in the Quarter of Mutation, purpose fulfilled through transformation. Behind them, Gate 22 falls in the Quarter of Initiation, purpose fulfilled through mind, and Gate 47 falls in the Quarter of Duality, purpose fulfilled through bonding.
So the restless appetite and the fixed rhythm the first article reads on this cross's surface answer to the arcs of form and transformation, while the emotional grace and the working mind beneath them answer to the arcs of mind and bonding, the same two design gates the Juxtaposition Cross of Grace carries as its own personality half. The same pair, exchanged, is this cross's own reversal, the Juxtaposition Cross of Habits, and, held instead in the Left Angle and Right Angle families, as the Cross of Separation and the Cross of Consciousness. 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.
