Human Design

Juxtaposition Cross of Behavior

The Juxtaposition Cross of Behavior is about close attention to how people behave. Gates 10 and 15 relate to one's own conduct and an acceptance of human diversity, while gates 18 and 17 add taste, a critical eye and clear opinions about how things should be. People with this cross see flaws in other people's behaviour and cannot help noticing them. It is a fixed path (profile 4/1 only), and they share their observations mainly with friends. The gift is helping others improve; the trap is constant criticism that cools relationships, so it is wiser to speak when advice is actually wanted.

The gates of the cross

The four gates of the cross: Personality Sun and Earth | Design Sun and Earth.

  • 10/15 | 18/17 — Quarter of Mutation. Sun 10 “Behavior of the Self”, Earth 15 “Extremes”; in the Design, Sun 18 “Correction”, Earth 17 “Opinions”.

Juxtaposition

Juxtaposition crosses occur only with the 4/1 profile. It is a fixed path, between personal and transpersonal destiny, without turning either way. These people hold one clear theme steadily whatever the circumstances; their strength is constancy, not flexibility.

Quarter of Mutation

The Quarter of Mutation is purpose fulfilled through transformation. It spans the gates from 1 to 19 and relates to change that enters the world gradually, in its own time rather than by anyone's will. People born in this quarter often go through deep personal transformations, learning to let go of the old and to accept the end of one chapter as the start of the next.
