What I propose below is a table of Human Design Incarnation Crosses. The Incarnation Cross is a powerful and influential aspect, as the energies come from the position of the Sun and Earth at birth and 88 days prior. Obviously, for us humans, the Sun and Earth are significant energetic influences. From a spiritual perspective, our Incarnation Cross will support our journey in fulfilling our life’s purpose. It’s like a platform for carrying out the work that awaits you in this life.

If you want to discover your Incarnation Cross, calculate your chart here. Then, scroll through the table to find the gates in the exact order taken from the Sun and Earth, respectively, from the Personality and Design columns.

Below is the order in which they will be indicated in the table:

The Right Angle Cross of the Sphinx 4

1 (Self-Expression)2 (Higher Knowledge)7 (The Role of the Self)13 (Listener)
You are here to follow your own lead and be in the moment. You are transfixed by the now and your way of doing things. This self absorption is your individual contribution to the world. While it is not your intention to give others direction, you do. By following your heart and doing your own expressive thing, others can find direction through your example and will follow. Do your own thing and make sure it is your passion to your core.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Self-Expression

1 (Self-Expression)2 (Higher Knowledge)4 (Formulization)49 (Principles)
Your Cross has the energy of self expression. You are here to be different and do your own thing. It is through individual expression that the rest of us can look on and adapt to the new ideas that we feel resonance with. Understand though that individualism is not always adaptive and some self expression will drive others away. It is the nature of the energy and it is not personal.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Defiance 2

1 (Self-Expression)2 (Higher Knowledge)4 (Formulization)49 (Principles)
Your Cross brings the energy that stands up to controlling influences. You are here to embody self expression. There will be people that attempt to impose rules of just how you can do that. Your energy is to defy those rules because how can anyone put bounds on self expression? You are here to make sure your expression has a voice and no one can box that in.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Sphinx 2

2 (Higher Knowledge)1 (Self-Expression)13 (Listener)7 (The Role of the Self)
The energy of this Cross is to see and be open to the possibilities. You are here to guide us by showing us the many possible directions and ways to create a beautiful world. You point out the many possible roads we may choose to take or give suggestions for alternate routes. However, you may have difficulty explaining why to take that suggested route.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of the Driver

2 (Higher Knowledge)1 (Self-Expression)49 (Principles)4 (Formulization)
The energy of your Cross will give you direction in your life. That direction is going to be tied to discovering the truth -- your truth, the truth of those around you and perhaps universal truths. This energy will give you consistent direction in your life and you will try to pull those around you forward toward that destiny of knowing the Truth.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Defiance

2 (Higher Knowledge)1 (Self-Expression)49 (Principles)4 (Formulization)
Whether conscious of this energy or not, you are here to step out of line and to represent the ''other'' way of doing things. Your perceived defiance may be small or great but your goal here is to bring about variations from the norm. Most of the time this will result in slight variances coming into acceptance. This occurs not from your action but rather from the perception of your action by others. It is in this way that you lend your design to society, tweaking those things that are mired and need change to be better.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Laws

3 (Ordering)50 (Values)60 (Acceptance)56 (Stimulation)
You have the energy that drives you to have laws. As a young child with this Cross if there were not rules and laws in your house, you may have found the scenario disturbing. This Cross is about living out the laws of the tribe. The lead energy has mutative qualities so there is the drive to make the laws better, but this is not revolutionary energy. The lead energy has more of a gradual change, as the law has limitations. If these limitations were to change drastically, it would feel like chaos.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Mutation

3 (Ordering)50 (Values)41 (Contraction)31 (Leading)
This Cross carries the energy to cause mutation or change. These changes are generally associated with rules or laws. There may be some moral judgment as any time you try to change law you may be perceived as a dissident. If you make the change from the position of power you may be perceived as being corrupt. But you are here to be a mutative force in changing the tribal rules and laws.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Wishes

3 (Ordering)50 (Values)41 (Contraction)31 (Leading)
Your Cross has the energy to provide leadership for change in the law and the way things operate. This is always going to create tension as there will always be those who wish for things to stay the same and those wishing for change. This Cross is about wishing and hoping for a better future. You are here to make that wish for the future and provide some leadership to make it happen.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Explanation 3

4 (Formulization)49 (Principles)23 (Assimilation)43 (Insight)
Your Cross is driven by the energy of the 4th gate which is ''the answer'', but this answer is really just a theory that has to be expressed and then verified. You are here to explain your theories and this is a bit of a challenge. The explanation you give will be individualistic and for a logical theory to be accepted, it needs to appeal to the collective. Your mission is to give the rest of us an uncommon explanation, one that most of us wouldn't think of. It is this energy that gets the collective out of a wrong belief (world is flat) or difficult situation (global warming). Then it is up to society to decide if it is brilliant or bizarre. Don't take it personally if your idea(s) is viewed as bizarre, this is just the dance between collective and individual energy.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Formulization

4 (Formulization)49 (Principles)8 (Contribution)14 (Power Skills)
You are here to express your theories about patterns and formulas that explain things. You are not here to back them up, but to lay them out for the rest of us to puzzle over. The energy of your Cross provides the mental ability to see these formulas and your main job is to express them and then let them go.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Revolution 2

4 (Formulization)49 (Principles)8 (Contribution)14 (Power Skills)
Your Cross is about revolution that is practical. If the pattern of the revolution fits and is supported by facts, then it is a change that you are willing to invest in. If on the other hand it is a good theory but there is nothing to stand on, then you will let it go. You are here to make practical change.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Consciousness 4

5 (Fixed Rhythms)35 (Change)64 (Confusion)63 (Doubt)
You are here to be in the flow of life. All of life is made up of patterns that dance in the river of time. Your energy is the basis of these patterns. You have an inherent gift to understand that it is all about the patterns in life, in nature, and in the universe. If we go with the flow, then our energy is reserved for experiencing the things that move in and out of our lives and is not spent trying to fight the current. You are here to be wise about this and share your enlightenment with others.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Habits

5 (Fixed Rhythms)35 (Change)47 (Realizing)22 (Openness)
Your Cross brings the energy of patterns and habits and you are here to have a strong influence on those patterns. In your case it will be with respect to your own patterns, which are like ritual to you. For example, you may have patterns about how many times you brush each tooth, which bus you catch to work, how long you take for lunch. At times you may be very rigid about these things, but what you offer the rest of the world is that by having patterns, you can find individual rhythm. Without patterns, life would be chaotic. You help demonstrate the power of rhythm in life.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Separation 2

5 (Fixed Rhythms)35 (Change)47 (Realizing)22 (Openness)
Your Cross has the energy that wants to march to its own beat. This is energy that is looking for patterns and rhythms that work for you and not necessarily anyone else. This Cross is about separation because on your journey you will find that other people's patterns don't work for you. The world needs people that move in their own rhythm. For example, there is the mainstream work force and then there is the need for the others to fill in the void around it, this might be an off-shift or temp position or simply doing your own thing. Your pattern is important to you and it is your sense of individuality that you offer the world.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Eden 3

6 (Friction)36 (Crisis)12 (Caution)11 (Ideas)
So you were thrown out of Eden, or at least that may be what birth felt like to you. Many who carry this Cross enter the world reluctantly as the womb provides everything that is needed. Over time, you carry the energy to go out and explore the world and to live life. Ultimately your energy is about exploration, not to make your way back to Eden but to move forward and find a slice of Eden here on earth and then share it with those around you.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Conflict

6 (Friction)36 (Crisis)15 (Extremes)10 (Behavior of the Self)
The energy you bring to this life is about finding your opportunity through the relationships you establish. The conflict that you have to endure is finding balance between feeling tossed out of the Garden of Eden and finding joy living on the earthly plane. Part of you will struggle for Eden lost and the other will revel in the joy of life. Use your relationships to find the opportunity to bring joy to your life.
 

The Left Angle Cross of the Plan 2

6 (Friction)36 (Crisis)15 (Extremes)10 (Behavior of the Self)
You are here to be an earthly guide. The energy of your Cross is about life on the earthly plane. You are here to teach and be an example that by aligning ourselves with our Human Design, we will get what we need. Not perhaps what our mind thinks we need, but what our body and soul need. You are here to be the guardian of living successfully on the earth in this material world.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Sphinx 3

7 (The Role of the Self)13 (Listener)2 (Higher Knowledge)1 (Self-Expression)
As the Cross of the sphinx you bring leadership to guide and direct as your energy supports vision for the future. This is probably the most active Cross of seeking leadership, but the drive for leadership in you will depend on your profile and the rest of your chart's composition. Fundamentally, you have the design to look at past patterns and project where they are moving to. This is your greatest asset to bring forth in your leadership.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Interaction

7 (The Role of the Self)13 (Listener)23 (Assimilation)43 (Insight)
Your Cross is driven to be involved in leadership. This is not necessarily taking the lead but may manifest as a individual contributor to something bigger. You will feel compelled to have a foot in the door in politics or other organizations that provide leadership. Your Cross carries gates of leadership to support you in this endeavor and your 4th line profile can contribute to provide opportunity through your social network. Is this always a 4th line profile?
 

The Left Angle Cross of Masks 2

7 (The Role of the Self)13 (Listener)23 (Assimilation)43 (Insight)
Your Cross is expected to lead when there is a dire need for someone to step forward and provide a solution. With this energy, there will be an expectation for you to come through and save the day. Preparation is key for you as the expectations are large. Make sure you are ready for the task at hand or turn it down as the consequences of failure may be great.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Contagion 2

8 (Contribution)14 (Power Skills)30 (Recognition of Feelings)29 (Saying Yes)
The energy of your Cross is to be a contributor through your individual effort. Your passion and expression of excitement is contagious and inspires others to follow your lead This energy means it is unlikely you will be the follower of others, at least not all the way. At some point, you will step out on your own to break new ground. When you do, it creates the energy for others to latch on to your ideas and catch the wave.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Contribution

8 (Contribution)14 (Power Skills)55 (Spirit)59 (Sexuality)
The energy of this Cross is to make your contribution to society through demonstration. For example, in the movie ''It's a Wonderful Life,'' there is an undeniable drive between George and Mary to get married, buy the old house and spend their life continuously fixing it up. You too have a drive to adopt some project and take it under your wing by fixing it and making it better. This is your contribution to society.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Uncertainty

8 (Contribution)14 (Power Skills)55 (Spirit)59 (Sexuality)
The energy of your Cross provides you with the desire to get the right house, the right plot of land and all sorts of nice things. The underlying uncertainty of this Cross is in the question, ''Do I have the right (house, car, land, purse, shoes, etc.).'' All people with the Left Angle Cross of Uncertainty have the 55th gate, which represents melancholy and the wave from joy to sadness and back. The trick of living this Cross is realizing that the sadness to joy is a swing and always will be. Know that when you are feeling melancholy, the joy is coming. It is through this awareness and focus that you bring happiness to your life. As your decisions feel right over time, know that you have made the right choice.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Planning 4

9 (Focus)16 (Skills)40 (Aloneness)37 (Friendship)
You are here to contribute planning for your family, group or community. You have the energy to look at the details and focus on what needs to be done. You are not about determining where the energy or financial resources will come from, because that is someone else's responsibility. Your ability to plan is grounded in the priorities of the group you are working with. Your focus is on the ends not the means.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Focus

9 (Focus)16 (Skills)64 (Confusion)63 (Doubt)
You are driven with the energy to find focus in things, especially around planning. Like a travel agent, you can race around the internet trying to find all the logical choices. However, that is not always the most productive way this energy works. Your design will more likely find focus by relaxing into the task and allowing the focus to come into view with time. So using the travel agent example, instead of racing around logically working things out, take a more Zen-like approach and allow the pieces to naturally come together. This relaxed method is how you will find focus most successfully and make your contribution to all that you do.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Identification 2

9 (Focus)16 (Skills)64 (Confusion)63 (Doubt)
Your Cross carries the energy to have great focus and contribution. Your ability to focus and be a strong contributor is directly linked to the rewards and security you are given. Your design is not well suited for a speculative career where instead of income you receive shares or a potential future bonus. You are not a person for Google in the early days as you need the stability in hand. With that stability, you can bring enormous focus to whatever you do and make a big contribution.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Vessel of Love 4

10 (Behavior of the Self)15 (Extremes)46 (The Determination of the Self)25 (The Spirit of the Self)
The energy of your Cross is based in love. Love of spirit, love of the body, love of humanity and love of the self. You are the embodiment of love. Your love is driven for you to find self-love. Your Cross is looking for a way to express itself as an individual example of love for all to see.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Behavior

10 (Behavior of the Self)15 (Extremes)18 (Correction)17 (Opinions)
Your Cross has the energy to guide and correct the behavior of others. This energy includes opinions to evaluate the logical process and correction to enhance how it is done. The purpose is to get at a better way of doing things and bring greater joy to live. Realize, however, those people that you are correcting and guiding are not always going to like your suggestions. Be sure to follow your Human Design type and strategy when engaging in your corrective process.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Prevention 2

10 (Behavior of the Self)15 (Extremes)18 (Correction)17 (Opinions)
Your Cross carries the energy to examine behavior. You analyze behavior and then make commentary to correct it. The driving force here is to prevent hardship or injury by correcting the behavior and cutting it off before potential disaster happens. This energy can be a bit judgmental and dictatorial at times. Be aware of your delivery, as it will be more effective if you soften it some of the time. You are here to help others avoid potentially harmful behavior by correcting what seems risky and applauding what appears good.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Eden 4

11 (Ideas)12 (Caution)6 (Friction)36 (Crisis)
We come into body from the ethereal world that has a lightness and a lack of density. This world is dense and has a heaviness to it. You are here to educate and pass on the importance of the body experience. You come in on the Cross of Eden and are here to express this philosophy while being in body. Some can tend to be weighted down by the heaviness and others can move to express the importance of being in body and how to live it out. You may experience the emotional oscillation between these two points of view.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Ideas

11 (Ideas)12 (Caution)46 (The Determination of the Self)25 (The Spirit of the Self)
You are apt to be driven to express your ideas. The energy of your Cross supports philosophizing and organizing thoughts, especially about being in body. This is about the physical experience of being human. You have the energy to teach or be a prophet and speak to the world.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Education 2

11 (Ideas)12 (Caution)46 (The Determination of the Self)25 (The Spirit of the Self)
You have the Cross of Education and the energy that supports the value of education. You are designed to be a proponent of education because it is a vehicle for us to gain a better understanding of who we are. As we understand who we are, we are given a chance to evolve. Education is the basis of that evolution and you are here to be involved and help make it available to all.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Eden 2

12 (Caution)11 (Ideas)36 (Crisis)6 (Friction)
Your Cross has the energy and drive to go and explore the world -- but it really isn't just about you. This is the energy that compels you to bring others along on your exploration. This is the force that led us out of the Garden of Eden. This energy also has ties to art and bringing expression into form. This Cross can go through a period of sadness as there is a lot in the world that is not Eden-like. But fear not the drive to lead or share. Your sense of exploration will come through because that is what you are here to do.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Articulation

12 (Caution)11 (Ideas)25 (The Spirit of the Self)46 (The Determination of the Self)
Your Cross carries a special energy to be able to spread the word. Your energy is not just about the articulation of the words, but also the energy of love within the message. You have a gift to be able to infect people around you with what you say. Use your gift to make a change for the better in all that you do.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Education

12 (Caution)11 (Ideas)25 (The Spirit of the Self)46 (The Determination of the Self)
You are here to educate by way of the lecture. Your style is not really about sharing but more about expounding to the masses who are ready to hear your message. When living within your type and strategy you will find an audience who is open and receptive to hear what you have to say. You are here to deliver the word in whatever field that you happen to have a passion for.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Sphinx

13 (Listener)7 (The Role of the Self)1 (Self-Expression)2 (Higher Knowledge)
You are here to be intuitive about the past. You are here to provide guidance in reconciling the past by assimilating history to draw out the nugget of advice from what has already occurred.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Listening

13 (Listener)7 (The Role of the Self)43 (Insight)23 (Assimilation)
You are here to listen and collect the history of events and episodes in this life. However, this configuration is not conducive to expressing this history. It is a history, event or secret that very few will ever know. You have great skills as a listener and there are many ways to use this talent. Lawyers, doctors and psychologists all draw on this skill to help their clients while keeping their information confidential.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Masks

13 (Listener)7 (The Role of the Self)43 (Insight)23 (Assimilation)
As the Left Angle Cross of Masks, you are here to look at the past and give direction through your own mutative process. You wear the masks because there is pressure on you to give direction. Sometimes that expectation can make you experience melancholy as your Cross expresses individual energy that is looking for the higher love with the another. The twist is that your individual energy is about individual expression which can sometimes struggle when trying to love others simply because then it is no longer just individual. Remember that to find love you have to start the journey alone, or you would already have love. This is your mutative process that you demonstrate for others.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Contagion 4

14 (Power Skills)8 (Contribution)29 (Saying Yes)30 (Recognition of Feelings)
Your Cross has the energy of being well provided for. You also have the energy of saying ''yes'' and making commitments. Your energetic makeup will always draw the necessary resources to you, however your desire to say ''yes'' can get you overextended and lead you to burn out. You need to follow your Human Design type and strategy and make sure your commitments involve things you are passionate about. People will be drawn to you to experience your abundant resources. Make sure you are spending your energies on things that have meaning on your soul level.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Empowering

14 (Power Skills)8 (Contribution)59 (Sexuality)55 (Spirit)
You have the energetic design to get what you want in this life and a lot of that is going to depend on your security, both financially and romantically. You are only going to be successful at these goals over the long haul, if you follow your Human Design type and strategy because that is just the way the energy flows. If you follow these guidelines, then romance is going to be a key to your happiness. It is your underlying desire to be happy and secure as your personal means to empowerment.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Uncertainty 2

14 (Power Skills)8 (Contribution)59 (Sexuality)55 (Spirit)
The energy of your Cross is to provide the materials and security to reduce the uncertainty. In relationship we are talking about home, shelter, food etc. In work we are talking about product, ideas or direction. There is an energetic void that you fill. There are these people be it family, work or community that have this uncertainty and you have the energy to provide stability and material goods to quell the uncertainty.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Vessel of Love 2

15 (Extremes)10 (Behavior of the Self)25 (The Spirit of the Self)46 (The Determination of the Self)
Born as the Vessel of Love, you are here to bring people into the flow in a loving way. All four of the gates of your Cross are connected to the G/Identity center and, on a deeper level, connection to the Soul. Love of spirit, love of the flesh, love of the self and love of humanity are the four energies that make up this Cross. With the energy of this Cross, humanity leads the way for you. This is about getting people into the flow of love for themselves, each other and love of humanity.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Extremes

15 (Extremes)10 (Behavior of the Self)17 (Opinions)18 (Correction)
The energy of this Cross is about finding rhythm within extremes. You are driven to find rhythm in all aspects of your life but it may be an extreme rhythm. This might look like staying up late and then getting up early, working the night shift, or working out every day of a month and then doing nothing for two weeks. These are all examples of having rhythm but with an extreme twist. It's ok to have these extremes, as that is who you are.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Prevention

15 (Extremes)10 (Behavior of the Self)17 (Opinions)18 (Correction)
As the Cross of Prevention you speak from a place of love and caution guiding others to prevent following patterns or paths where they might get hurt. Though your goal is to lovingly help others to avoid a negative experience, your guidance will not always be welcome. Make sure you follow your Human Design type and strategy and, most of the time, this energy will be fully accepted by the recipient.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Planning 2

16 (Skills)9 (Focus)37 (Friendship)40 (Aloneness)
You bring the energy of enthusiasm for finding a better way to do things for the collective. This logical energy is amplified when you identify with, or are passionate about, what you wish to improve. You tend to do this work by taking ideas and deeply analyzing them to make life better. Your key role is to bring together the spirit, the ''cheerleader'' and the talent while looking for the depth of the solution. Your challenge will be finding the resources to make what you need happen, because you need to find that outside of yourself.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Experimentation

16 (Skills)9 (Focus)63 (Doubt)64 (Confusion)
You have a tendency to become very fixated on something that intently interests you. When you truly identify with something, it will get under your skin and you will be bound and determined to make it happen. You will have a hard time letting go of what you can't seem to manifest. You are here to be determined and by following your Human Design type and strategy, you make that which you identify with come to life.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Identification

16 (Skills)9 (Focus)63 (Doubt)64 (Confusion)
You carry the energy to draw people in to identify with your cause. Whether you are raising money for charity, selling houses or promoting a book, you have the design to get people to identify with the picture you are painting. At the core, it is the foundation of logic, combined with charisma and enthusiasm, that hook people to your cause. You are here to collect people who identify with what you believe in.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Service

17 (Opinions)18 (Correction)58 (Aliveness)52 (Inaction)
Your Cross brings four logical energies together. The lead energy is opinion. With opinion energy, there is a great drive to correct and organize things so you can live a healthy, longer and more joyful life. You serve people through the logical energies of guidance, organization and correction. There maybe a drive to feel as if you are a healer, but it is important to understand that you are the guide and each person must take their own steps to truly heal.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Opinions

17 (Opinions)18 (Correction)38 (The Fighter)39 (The Provocateur)
You are here to give opinions. Not all of your opinions are going to be popular and you are not always going to be right. But, your opinions are important to help correct behavior and implement logical process to bring more joy to life. Because being opinionated is how you were designed, it is important for you to remember that in relationship you will need to be with someone who is comfortable with how freely you express your opinions.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Upheaval

17 (Opinions)18 (Correction)38 (The Fighter)39 (The Provocateur)
With your Cross, your purpose is to get your hands dirty, muck about and stir things up. You bring the energy to poke at stagnate issues and inspire evaluation, correction and refinement. This energy can create some tension as not everyone wishes for their issues to be stirred up.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Service 3

18 (Correction)17 (Opinions)52 (Inaction)58 (Aliveness)
You bring energy that says ''get your stuff together''. The lead energy here is correction and this correction is about making life better and more joyful. This is not always going to be an easy message to bring to the world because not everyone is ready for correction. It may feel personal, but realize that it is not. At times, you may need to soften the delivery of your message and make sure your correction is invited by the recipient(s), or greater conflict will arise. You are here to shape up this world to make it a better place.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Correction

18 (Correction)17 (Opinions)39 (The Provocateur)38 (The Fighter)
You are here to correct patterns and discover a more joyful life. You are here to do this for others, however, realize that correction is often not welcome. In order to be successful and maintain healthy relationships, you need to stick to your Human Design type and strategy with your communication. You need to verbalize your correction with tact and care. When you do, you can be truly wise about correction and harmony. If you don't, you may often be alone.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Upheaval 2

18 (Correction)17 (Opinions)39 (The Provocateur)38 (The Fighter)
You are here to stir things up. Your Cross brings the energy to turn things over in an effort to make things better. This is practical energy that understands that if nothing is going to change, it's not worth the effort. You are like the meek kid suddenly rising up to take on the playground bully to make a change for everyone's benefit. That is what you are here to do.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Four Ways 4

19 (Wanting)33 (Privacy)44 (Alertness)24 (Rationalizing)
Your Cross is driven by the energy to make sure everyone has what they need. The most fundamental need being food. For you this may just be a drive to make sure your family is fed, but for most with this Cross, it is greater than that and can extend to the community, the country or the world. In addition, your Cross has a deep spiritual connection that is intertwined with the drive to feed.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Need

19 (Wanting)33 (Privacy)1 (Self-Expression)2 (Higher Knowledge)
Your Cross has the need to be expressive. This energy is very creative, but there is a strong desire for this creativity to be done in private. You have a need to have your own space where you can let your creative juices flow. You are here to be creative in your own way and in your own space.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Refinement 2

19 (Wanting)33 (Privacy)1 (Self-Expression)2 (Higher Knowledge)
The energy of your Cross provides direction about what is needed. This is not about what is needed today, but rather further down the road. Currently this is the voice of the organic movement. ''Sure through use of commercial fertilization and pesticides we are producing a lot of food, but the soil will wear out and the ecosystem is unbalanced and it the long run we are going to have big problems. Sustainable farming is the solution for the long run.'' You are here to be the voice that points us in the longer term direction, especially with respect to food and things we require for survival.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix 2

20 (The Now)34 (Power)55 (Spirit)59 (Sexuality)
The energy you carry is about being busy. It doesn't matter what you are doing, you just know that being busy is what you need to be. There is a strong degree of individualism in this energy and from that you can derive strength or aloneness, joy or melancholy. You can be busy and be happy or be busy with your sadness. Finding the happiness is up to you.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of the Now

20 (The Now)34 (Power)37 (Friendship)40 (Aloneness)
This Cross carries the energy of being in the present moment. It also carries the energy of family and community. The challenge for you is that you can become so lost in the now that you lose sight of your friends, family and community. Ultimately, if you can find the balance to maintain your being in the now and your connectedness to your community, you can be a model for being present.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Duality

20 (The Now)34 (Power)37 (Friendship)40 (Aloneness)
You are here to be the mutative force in the tribe. You carry very industrious energy to do things and get them done. The individual aspects you introduce may be attractive for your community to adapt into their practice. However, not all individual changes are adaptive for two reasons. One, you may wish to keep it as your own thing and not share it. Two, the group or community may not see the value in your new ways and reject it. So there is a dance that you will do in this life, bringing change to the group or community and seeing if it is adopted or not.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Tension

21 (The Hunter/Huntress)48 (Depth)38 (The Fighter)39 (The Provocateur)
Your Cross carries the energy of tension that is necessary to maintain order in a tribal environment. This may play out in family, work or community, but the tension is a necessary provocation to keep the group aligned and in order. The tension also helps to provoke response which provides opportunity for more effective leadership.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Control

21 (The Hunter/Huntress)48 (Depth)54 (Ambition)53 (Beginnings)
Your Cross has the energy of needing control. It is through this control that you can take something and recreate it as something new. Everyone has this ability, but not with the strength that you do. With this energy, you can take control of the situation, start anew and make it what it is really supposed to be. Through your drive to take control you bring about innovation, which is why you are truly here.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Endeavour

21 (The Hunter/Huntress)48 (Depth)54 (Ambition)53 (Beginnings)
The energy in your Cross is about coming together in a very controlled way to make something bigger happen. You endeavor to make something grand and complex happen from bringing together smaller forces. Tight control is a must, for otherwise you have chaos, which is not what you or this energy is about.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Rulership

22 (Openness)47 (Realizing)26 (The Egoist)45 (Gatherer)
Fueled by the energies of listening, educating and figuring things out, you have the energy to rule your world. Whether it manifests as your own individual world, your family, your town or your country, you have the capacity to rule with grace. This is rulership that comes your way -- you do not need to seek it out.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Grace

22 (Openness)47 (Realizing)11 (Ideas)12 (Caution)
You have the design of being a listener, and you love to listen. You will fall in love with listening to certain things in you life, just to be able to listen longer. Because of this, you have a gift to work with strangers as they will instinctively know that you are attentive to what they have to say.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Informing

22 (Openness)47 (Realizing)11 (Ideas)12 (Caution)
You have the great gift of the energy to listen and the energy to communicate. You carry the energy to be attentive to others as they speak and then are able to eloquently communicate what has been told. You are the gatherer and distributor of information. Every family, community, government needs someone like you.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Explanation 2

23 (Assimilation)43 (Insight)49 (Principles)4 (Formulization)
You are here to vocalize individual expression. Because it is individual expression, it is new to the collective and your audience may act as if what you are saying is strange or bizarre. You therefore have built-in energy to repeat what you have said or done over and over again. It is through this process of repetition that the rest of humanity (or at least friends and family) begin to become familiar with what you are expressing. An illustration of this energy is popular fads. Someone with individual energy does something new -- wears a new type of shoe or sports a new hairdo. At first society's reaction is, ''That's just weird.'' But after seeing it 5, 10, 20 times, other people start to do it and it catches on. You are here to introduce us to the new ideas.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Assimilation

23 (Assimilation)43 (Insight)30 (Recognition of Feelings)29 (Saying Yes)
You have the energy that pushes you to bring forward individual ideas to create change. Individual ideas can at first seem bizarre or foreign to others because they are new and different. The challenge of your Cross is to bring these forward without scaring others off. You will do a dance of holding this expression in until you get to know people, and only then letting your true expression out. Expressing that inner you is your contribution. It is from these individual ideas that new things are born and can be accepted. Just remember, not all new ideas take flight. Some do, and others drop by the wayside.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Dedication

23 (Assimilation)43 (Insight)30 (Recognition of Feelings)29 (Saying Yes)
There is a drive in your Cross to provide the same explanation over and over again. This Cross is a great basis for teaching. Through teaching you can fulfill the burning desire to repeat the same thing over and over again, perhaps over time clarifying your message through its retelling. The dedication you have to explanation is the gift you bring to this lifetime.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Four Ways

24 (Rationalizing)44 (Alertness)19 (Wanting)33 (Privacy)
You are driven to know and have a mental understanding of all that you encounter in life. This lead force will drive you to go over and over things until you have a solid understanding. This force will give you purpose, like the ocean waves polishing the stone on the beach you will return to things, to experiences to memories to go over and over looking for that deeper understanding of how it all works and fits together. This is an individual drive so it is more likely you will use your gift as an example or an individual contributor as most of the rest of us do not have the patience to go over things so many times.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Rationalization

24 (Rationalizing)44 (Alertness)13 (Listener)7 (The Role of the Self)
You carry the energy that allows you to be incredibly gifted with grasping concepts and truly understanding them. This energy can make you among the brightest of people on the planet. The challenge for you is to translate your understanding into that of the collective. Not only does the concept have to be explained in the moment, but it also has to be rationalized about how it ties to the past and the future.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Incarnation

24 (Rationalizing)44 (Alertness)13 (Listener)7 (The Role of the Self)
You carry the energy of the process of incarnation. At some level you have a deep understanding that we are always coming and going. The cells in our bodies have a limited life span. As cells die off, they are replaced with new ones. Your energy has a recognition for this pattern. You are here to give direction to all that you encounter. In whatever process something is in its life, you have seen what leads up to this and where it goes. Without even knowing on a conscious level, you provide guidance about where their process will lead them.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Vessel of Love

25 (The Spirit of the Self)46 (The Determination of the Self)10 (Behavior of the Self)15 (Extremes)
At the very center of all your energies is love. You have the love of the body, the love of humanity, the love of behavior and universal love. You are here to be universally loving to all things. You may be met with shock at some point in your life, and your challenge is to overcome it.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Innocence

25 (The Spirit of the Self)46 (The Determination of the Self)58 (Aliveness)52 (Inaction)
You are here to be an influence on the world about bringing forward the love of life and living. This is not necessarily about finding happiness, although that is the ideal situation. This is about finding that effervescent joy of being in body and going though this human existence.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Healing

25 (The Spirit of the Self)46 (The Determination of the Self)58 (Aliveness)52 (Inaction)
The energy of your Cross is to communicate the value of being healthy and its necessity for a joyful life. All the other things -- food, money, love -- pale in comparison if you do not have your health and the ability to enjoy it. As a Cross of the healer, there is a tendency to go through periods of sickness yourself so you can preach to the world about the joy and benefit of healing and being healthy.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Rulership 4

26 (The Egoist)45 (Gatherer)47 (Realizing)22 (Openness)
You have the energy to promote yourself as a leader. Your skills in spinning your image will sell your ability to lead. This is not a fact-based enterprise. Your ability to lead is based on the marketing energy that you possess. You are here to be a leader and sell yourself as leader. Just make sure you have the goods to get it done.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of the Trickster

26 (The Egoist)45 (Gatherer)6 (Friction)36 (Crisis)
Your Cross has the energy of ''slight of hand''. You have the ability to sell and make people believe in what you're selling. Whether you are selling cars or a new idea you have the marketing ability and trustworthiness to get the commitment. The energy of your Cross is very important because while it can be used in deceitful ways, it can also help rally people around important ideas where there is not enough empirical evidence yet for support.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Confrontation 2

26 (The Egoist)45 (Gatherer)6 (Friction)36 (Crisis)
You have the energy to confront rulership and impose rulership of your own. Your energy is designed to have a bit of a hard edge, because you are here to take on people of power who ought to be questioned. Additionally, your energy is designed to be provocative because from provocation comes justification. With the justification comes information to get a deeper understanding of what people are about and what they stand for. Your energetic demeanor is confrontational and has the purpose of helping us get to the bottom of things.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Unexpected

27 (Caring)28 (The Game Player)41 (Contraction)31 (Leading)
As a tribal Cross, you are here to support and stand for your tribe whether that be friends, family, your town, your school, your team or your country. You are here to ensure that your tribe is nurtured and cared for even if it requires bending the law. You will also find that you bring about unexpected things. Whether this is your doing or just the coincidence of the energy around you, the unexpected is something you can expect in your life both for good or not so good.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Caring

27 (Caring)28 (The Game Player)19 (Wanting)33 (Privacy)
You are here to bring a sense of caring for all things and all people. This can be a blessing or, at times, a burden. Caring gives you purpose, and part of that drive is to make sure you are cared for too. This is the energy that speaks of ''Love thy neighbor,'' and it is your process to find purpose for that in your life.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Alignment

27 (Caring)28 (The Game Player)19 (Wanting)33 (Privacy)
You carry the energy to handle the unexpected in amazingly smooth ways. Due to the geometry of how energy works you attract unexpected things into your life. Your purpose is to move around or through these for yourself and for others. You would be good on the front lines, whether it be military, firefighter, EMT or teacher or any career where balancing the unexpected and moving through smoothly is crucial.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Unexpected 3

28 (The Game Player)27 (Caring)31 (Leading)41 (Contraction)
You have the energy to struggle with things in this lifetime. If you find your passion, then your struggle will feel worthwhile and productive. If you cannot find your passion, then your struggle will feel depressing. Find your passion and embrace your struggle as it is meant to bring about a deeper and more personal meaning of life. With this Cross, you have the destiny of unexpected things coming up in your life. Enjoy the ride, it does have a purpose.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Risks

28 (The Game Player)27 (Caring)33 (Privacy)19 (Wanting)
The energy of your Cross is that of a gambler. You are willing and driven to take risks for the thrill of it. Through your risks, you are seeking purpose as well as the rush. Follow your Human Design type and strategy and be sure the things you bet heavily on are what you are passionate about. This strategy is how your success is guaranteed! Deleted comment about blind luck.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Alignment 2

28 (The Game Player)27 (Caring)33 (Privacy)19 (Wanting)
You are here with the energy to make a shift from the old, traditional paradigm and align with the new. You are here to show the way and be able to do just that. There may be some risk in making the adjustment, but if you follow your Human Design type and strategy, then the risks you take will be justified. There is some inherent danger in making this change because you can be seen as a deserter. However, you are here to align with the new and you understand that nothing lasts forever.

29 (Saying Yes)30 (Recognition of Feelings)8 (Contribution)14 (Power Skills)
Your Cross carries the energy to say ''yes''. It also carries an enthusiasm for life and is driven to make things grand by marching to the beat. You are here to spread excitement and spread the word about whatever it is that you are passionate about. Your commitment to things is unbounded and fuels the enthusiasm. However, you are here on earth in a physical body and do have some constraints. You need to set some limits to the number of things you say ''yes'' to. Make certain you agree only to what you are absolutely passionate about. If you not, you will surely burn out.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Commitment

29 (Saying Yes)30 (Recognition of Feelings)20 (The Now)34 (Power)
You are here to say ''yes'' and be committed to many things. You have a burning desire to agree to everything and unfortunately this will likely burn you out.

You are here to do things and can find yourself busy all the time. You can be very dedicated to what you do. It is extremely important that you follow your Human Design type and strategy. It is also just as important that you make sure that what keeps you busy is something that you are passionate about. This passion is not just a vague interest, but a passion that flows from the core of your soul. If you can find your passion and put it in motion, you will be among the most industrious, productive people on the planet.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Contagion

30 (Recognition of Feelings)29 (Saying Yes)14 (Power Skills)8 (Contribution)
Your Cross carries the energy of desire and to experience what you desire. You are the one who tries new things out. It is your impulse.

You may need to manage this tendency, or you will be overwhelmed by all your commitments.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Fates

30 (Recognition of Feelings)29 (Saying Yes)34 (Power)20 (The Now)
You carry the energy of drive and obsession. You are driven by a passion that resonates deeply within you and pushes you forward.

There have been many great discoveries made by people with this Cross. Is there burn out and then recovery?
 

The Left Angle Cross of Industry

30 (Recognition of Feelings)29 (Saying Yes)34 (Power)20 (The Now)
The energy of this Cross is to be industrious. There is a strong desire to be busy and see that others are busy. The drive for this business is the goal to bring people together. Your belief is that doing this work, we will all come together. The trick for you is to make sure you follow your strategy and use your business in response instead of trying to outright manifest.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Unexpected 2

31 (Leading)41 (Contraction)27 (Caring)28 (The Game Player)
You carry the energy that is likely to land you in a place of leadership rather unexpectedly. It will seem to come from nowhere - suddenly you are in the limelight, or at least holding things up. Be aware that you have this energy and at some point will be thrust into a lead role. Get ready to take on the responsibility for this is why you are here.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Influence

31 (Leading)41 (Contraction)24 (Rationalizing)44 (Alertness)
You have the energy to be very influential with others because you have a energy to be persistent. This is the design of an agent, advisor or architect, because you will go over the processes repeatedly until you reach your goals.

The Left Angle Cross of the Alpha

31 (Leading)41 (Contraction)24 (Rationalizing)44 (Alertness)
This is the Cross of a leader. You have the alpha energy to be the leader of the pack and make sure the pack's survival needs are taken care of. You have the mental agility to plan and the presence that assures all that they are safe. Safety is an important act of your leadership as the group you lead wants to alleviate the fear based in survival. Your energy lends naturally to this, whether you lead as a general or patriarch, but make sure you enter leadership in accordance with your Human Design type and strategy. This will ensure strength in your leadership style.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Maya 3

32 (Continuity)42 (Growth)62 (Detail)61 (Mystery)
This Cross has the energy of survival by looking for value. It can contain a strong strain of survival, of saving and storing things.

The Juxtaposition Cross of Conservation

32 (Continuity)42 (Growth)56 (Stimulation)60 (Acceptance)
The energy of your Cross is to conserve and preserve life. This may manifest in many ways including some that are fearful. You may be driven to prepare for disaster, stocking food and water. You may be passionate about the environment and moved to serve or be involved with conservation organizations or movements. You are here to offer your voice to preserve life, just be sure not to get to caught up in the fear. While the fear is an important driving force to conserve, it can become overbearing and detract from the good of the cause. Stay grounded in your core purpose.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Limitation 2

32 (Continuity)42 (Growth)56 (Stimulation)60 (Acceptance)
Your Cross has the energy of knowing limitation in order to survive or achieve preservation. This is based out of energy that is fearful and at times it can speak in terms that there is no use in trying. Your gift is that you can identify and communicate about the limitations that are needed to be successful. Your liability is that with duality the fearful side can be strong and take over and can lead to depression of yourself or others. Strive to keep your mindset positive!
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Four Ways 2

33 (Privacy)19 (Wanting)24 (Rationalizing)44 (Alertness)
Your Cross is driven by the lead energy which is looking for privacy. This is a retreating energy which is actually looking for freedom that is only found in having your own space. This Cross is tied to housing in many ways because having your own four walls, where you can go and just be yourself, is important to you. You may well be very social, but there comes a time when you need to be alone. This energy could manifest in many forms, but often is about the right for everyone to have their own space to be themselves.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Retreat

33 (Privacy)19 (Wanting)2 (Higher Knowledge)1 (Self-Expression)
Your energy is about the right for everyone to have there own little place of retreat. This is the start of the peace process. To have peace, everyone must have their own little territory, their own four walls in which they retreat and have their own space. You are here to bring this influence and manifest your passion. This is shown just by the example you set by being yourself, whether you are a designer, a city planner, an architect or a volunteer for Habitat for Humanity. Any of these paths and more could be the way you live out your Cross of retreat. Are these vocations tied to space only?
 

The Left Angle Cross of Refinement

33 (Privacy)19 (Wanting)2 (Higher Knowledge)1 (Self-Expression)
You bring the energy of having your own living space and nice things within it. Part of the driving force is about privacy and having your own space, not just for you but for the belief that it is everyone's right to have such a thing. In addition to the shelter a home provides, you desire some beauty within it to add to your life. You are here to ensure all of us have the right to our own private and inspiring space.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix 4

34 (Power)20 (The Now)59 (Sexuality)55 (Spirit)
Your energy has a great need to be busy. The channel 34-20 is a main line of energy from the Sacral Center to the Throat Center and is about ''doing it'', whatever ''it'' is. Beware not to get lost in your business and taken away from what's important to your soul. Make sure that you are doing things that are your passion and make your heart sing. Follow your Human Design type and strategy to stay focused and grounded. You are here to be very productive and drawn to secure relationships. Ultimately you accomplish this goal by listening to your soul - not by just doing things.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Power

34 (Power)20 (The Now)40 (Aloneness)37 (Friendship)
Your Cross brings a lot of power and energy. You are here to exchange that energy for return. It might be in the form of entertainment or it might be by being productive in other ways. You have power to do things that others are after. You are here to share the power and to get what you want. Make sure what you're after is what you want on the soul level and is not overly influenced by your ego.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Duality 2

34 (Power)20 (The Now)40 (Aloneness)37 (Friendship)
Your Cross has the energy to thrive both individually and as part of a community. Your challenge is to find the balance between these two different types of energy. You may often feel like being alone out of the control and restriction that being a part of group builds around you. Yet in group situations you thrive. You are here to make your contribution to the family, group or community even if you are not always happy being in that situation. You might find balance as an outside contributor or freelancer.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Consciousness 2

35 (Change)5 (Fixed Rhythms)63 (Doubt)64 (Confusion)
You are here to balance the energies of desire to have an experience and be done with it. Your motto is ''been there, done that.'' As situations arise in life, many times you may realize that you have experienced something similar before so you don't need to go through all the effort to do that all again. You may feel enormous pressure to experience all aspects of a situation so you can know that experience fully. Your job is to save the collective from repeating what we know and help us experience what we haven't mastered yet.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Experience

35 (Change)5 (Fixed Rhythms)22 (Openness)47 (Realizing)
You are driven to have very specific and unique experiences. There is this inner desire to focus on a particular experience and then work toward it until completion. There is enormous expectation placed upon the outcome, and you may be disappointed because there was no way for the experience to match up to such a buildup. It is important that you follow your Human Design type and strategy, so you go forward following the experiences that are right for you.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Separation

35 (Change)5 (Fixed Rhythms)22 (Openness)47 (Realizing)
The energy of your Cross is to live life with acceptance of all types. There is a heritage in us as humans that we are tribal by nature, treating foreigners from our tribe as suspicious. But your Cross has evolved beyond that as our cities have grown larger there is a need for not knowing everyone or even recognizing them. Your energy is to be accepting and comfortable with strangers around you. This is probably a key talent that you can utilize in your career.
 

The Right Angle Cross of the Eden

36 (Crisis)6 (Friction)11 (Ideas)12 (Caution)
The energy you carry is about being thrown out of Eden and then rediscovering it. Many people on this Cross will come into life and either feel they have been tossed out of paradise (heaven) or have an experience early in life that leaves them feeling Eden was lost. Your energy provides the drive to go seek your own Eden through experience. The experience is really your drive to move forward. Your gift is to find this slice of Eden and show it to the world.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Crisis

36 (Crisis)6 (Friction)10 (Behavior of the Self)15 (Extremes)
Your Cross brings the energy of the love of humanity and the desire for intimacy together. This can create conflict from within as you strive to reconcile the behavior of the self rooted in the love of humanity and the desire to act on the drive for intimacy. Your purpose is to bring these to balance in harmony with the rest of your design.
 

The Left Angle Cross of the Plane

36 (Crisis)6 (Friction)10 (Behavior of the Self)15 (Extremes)
The energy of your Cross is to find balance in intimacy with people in your life. Your energies are driven to find the personal pleasure you require, but to balance that with your life as it fits within the collective. On one hand, you have this push to grab one of your dreams and run off to the cave to be alone, and on the other hand, to be part of the group around the campfire. Finding and displaying the balance is the key gift that you can bring to this world.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Planning

37 (Friendship)40 (Aloneness)9 (Focus)16 (Skills)
The energy in your Cross is to create deals and bargains as part of forming community. The structure of communities and institutions are made up of these bargains or compromises. For example, we pay local taxes so that we can have public schools and transportation, among other community benefits. Your energy strives to contribute to the creation, fortification or continuance of community in whatever shape and form that takes.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Bargains

37 (Friendship)40 (Aloneness)5 (Fixed Rhythms)35 (Change)
The energy in your Cross is about making deals and bargains which contribute to yourself and may also contribute to making community. There is the potential to find give-and-take in everything, and the energy you carry will strongly express itself to get something back for each action you take.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Migration

37 (Friendship)40 (Aloneness)5 (Fixed Rhythms)35 (Change)
Your energy is to seek a break from the existing communities and groups that are built. By living in a community, one makes bargains and sacrifices in order to please everyone (such as taxes paid so schools can be built). At some point the community realizes that it can't please everyone. Your energy is there to be the voice to identify that the compromise has gone too far and we need to move on and begin to build again. Your voice contributes to the community building process.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Tension 4

38 (The Fighter)39 (The Provocateur)48 (Depth)21 (The Hunter/Huntress)
Your Cross is based on energy that is looking for a purpose and ready to struggle to make it happen. Because of this quality, it is paramount for you to find purpose in your life. Living your Human Design type and strategy is key to finding that purpose, because that is just how the energy works. If you don't find purpose you will likely end up struggling with lack of purpose and direction. Follow your strategy and listen to your inner voice. Put that energy to fight-through-it-all to good use.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Opposition

38 (The Fighter)39 (The Provocateur)57 (Intuitive Insight)51 (Shock)
You are here to be an opposing force to almost everything you encounter. It is through this opposition that you will make others justify what they do, what they are talking about or what they are selling. This is an important process both to you and others because it is through the justification process that society can begin to see what ideas are legitimate and what are full of holes. You add value to all involved in the conversation because you ask the right questions and push the buttons to reveal the underlying truth.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Individualism 2

38 (The Fighter)39 (The Provocateur)57 (Intuitive Insight)51 (Shock)
Your Cross carries energy to provoke others and create tension. Through provocation you create tension in others around you. Situations may become heated at times because people will unload on you. Energetically, however, you are ready for this and it does not seem to bother you. What you are doing is forcing them to take a position and making them justify it. You probably don't even know you are doing this, but your energy gives people a little nudge here or there and then they are suddenly worked up. Through this dance you are here to get people going, to get their emotions flowing and push them to find meaning in their lives.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Tension 2

39 (The Provocateur)38 (The Fighter)21 (The Hunter/Huntress)48 (Depth)
You were born with the gift to push people's buttons. While this can create some negative reactions, the goal of the provocation is to find the right spirit in the reaction. Those who you provoke are given a ''gift,'' as they have an opportunity to work on whatever you have provoked within them. They may not always see it that way though, so be forewarned. Your purpose is to create tension which causes a reaction typically in the form of a tirade or emotional expression. From that reaction come the seeds of information that through analysis can lead to the other finding an emotional path to spirit.
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Provocation

39 (The Provocateur)38 (The Fighter)51 (Shock)57 (Intuitive Insight)
You carry a design to be deeply provoking to others around you. The goal of this provocation is to create a reaction and movement around the area that you provoke. If there wasn't something for the other to work on or examine, you would not get such a reaction. Realize that not everyone is ready to work on things, so be mindful of your timing or you may get more than you bargain for.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Individualism

39 (The Provocateur)38 (The Fighter)51 (Shock)57 (Intuitive Insight)
You are here to be an individual. The energies in your Cross are all individual in nature. This is not about being social or in community. Not that you can't, but ultimately you are here to march to your own drummer. This is a valuable contribution to society as it gives us a chance to view your expression and adopt parts of it if we are inspired to. However it can annoy others who are more community-minded, as it is vastly different from what they accept, so it may be provoking. That provocation is ultimately what leads to change.
 

The Right Angle Cross of Planning 3

40 (Aloneness)37 (Friendship)16 (Skills)9 (Focus)
The point of your Cross is to evaluate the cost of community projects. This is all about the evaluation of the bargain. ''How much work is going to needed, and what is the return?'' Your Cross has the channel of community, but with the transition from individual to community we have to give things up to fit in. We have to give currency of either money or work to build and be a part of that community. Your Cross is here to say, ''like the idea, but is it worth the cost?''
 

The Juxtaposition Cross of Denial

40 (Aloneness)37 (Friendship)35 (Change)5 (Fixed Rhythms)
You are here to be the brakes on things when we get carried away. You are here to raise the voice of concern that we have already done that.

42 (Growth)32 (Continuity)60 (Acceptance)56 (Stimulation)

You are here to offer this heritage because there is a balance in change and tradition that is important to maintain. You help preserve the tradition.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Distraction 2

60 (Acceptance)56 (Stimulation)28 (The Game Player)27 (Caring)
The energy of your Cross is to help put the breaks on change. There is a great balance between tradition and change. Progress is all about change but if it was left unchecked pure progress would create chaos. You are here to insist upon the checks and balance and say, ''Hey, why are you trying to change something that we've been doing the same way for the last 200 years.'' This can be distracting to those that are on the progress side as they just want to move forward, but your voice is important so let it be heard.

The Juxtaposition Cross of Detail

62 (Detail)61 (Mystery)3 (Ordering)50 (Values)
This Cross is driven to deliver meaning through the inclusion of detail. There is a bit of fuzzy logic here, as the detail is not always precise and the method of delivery obscures the meaning. This is like a story teller who keeps interrupting themselves to add in odd, detailed facts and on the way loses the momentum of the story. You are here to be a contributor in relationship with others where your contribution will flow and deliver its full punch.

It is from this doubt that the idea, the product or the process is analyzed to make sure it works without undue risk. You in a sense are the safety engineer or over seer of society.
 

The Left Angle Cross of Dominion

63 (Doubt)64 (Confusion)26 (The Egoist)45 (Gatherer)
You have the energy to step in and taken power or authority. This is a transpersonal drive. There is karma involved, perhaps personal or perhaps to protect those being taken advantage of.

The Juxtaposition Cross of Confusion

64 (Confusion)63 (Doubt)45 (Gatherer)26 (The Egoist)
Your energy is here to be conscious of our pattern of life and our pattern of thinking. You have the energy to be a narrator or historian. There will be a tendency to manipulate the facts when there is a personal stake. This is due to the fact that some of the Cross energy is connected to the ego and the ego is driven for material gain for self preservation. This is where the confusion surfaces since the facts and reality don't always match. An objective position is your best spot to maintain the accuracy of your documentation or expression of events.

This is a karmic Cross, so when considering an authoritative position, you need to weigh the outcome as part of your decision making process.
