Left Angle Cross of Cycles

People with this cross live their lives in cycles: beginning, growth, maturing, completion, and then a fresh start. Gates 53 and 54 bring the energy to begin and the ambition to rise, while 42 and 32 add the ability to see things through and an instinct for what is likely to last. The path is transpersonal: they guide people and projects through stages of change and help them mature. Their careers and relationships often move in cycles too. The trap is impatience with repetition and wanting to drop something before its cycle is complete.

Variations of the cross

The cross has 2 variations, one for each Personality Sun gate. The theme is shared; the particular gates give it its shade:

  • 53/54 | 42/32 — Quarter of Civilization. Sun 53 “Beginnings”, Earth 54 “Ambition”; in the Design, Sun 42 “Growth”, Earth 32 “Continuity”.
  • 54/53 | 32/42 — Quarter of Mutation. Sun 54 “Ambition”, Earth 53 “Beginnings”; in the Design, Sun 32 “Continuity”, Earth 42 “Growth”.

Left Angle

Left Angle crosses belong to the profiles 5/1, 5/2, 6/2 and 6/3. Their path is transpersonal: it opens up through encounters, relationships and mutual influence. Some connections become fateful — through them they give something and receive something, which is why entering them by their own authority matters so much.

Quarter of Civilization

The Quarter of Civilization is purpose fulfilled through form. It spans the gates from 2 to 33 and is about giving ideas and energy a concrete shape: building, creating, expressing. People born in this quarter often feel a need to show themselves and leave something tangible behind, and their challenge is to create without pressure or haste.

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.
