Separation, the Same Four Quarters in Reverse

This article records tradition as it has been passed down and reported. Its sources are not yet part of the atlas's verified catalogue.

The Left Angle Cross of Separation, in this ordering, is named for Gate 5 and Gate 35 rather than Gate 35 and Gate 5, the same four gates as its mirror cross with the personality and design roles exchanged. Its first article notes that the same pair, mirrored again, underlies the Cross of Habits and the Cross of Experience elsewhere in the system. 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 ordering draws on exactly the same four Quarters as its mirror, one gate from each.

Gate 5, the personality gate here, falls in the Quarter of Mutation, purpose fulfilled through transformation. Gate 35, its personality partner, falls in the Quarter of Civilization, purpose fulfilled through form. Behind them, Gate 47 falls in the Quarter of Duality, purpose fulfilled through bonding, and Gate 22 falls in the Quarter of Initiation, purpose fulfilled through mind.

So the fixed rhythm and the hunger for progress the first article reads as outward facing rather than chosen still draw on the arcs of transformation and form, while the unresolved mind and emotional grace beneath them still draw on the arcs of bonding and mind. The same four gates recur across several named crosses in this family; the four Quarters supplying them do not change with which cross or which ordering is being read.
