A topic that bristles one evening can be taken up calmly the following Sunday. In someone with this cross, distance is regulated through small resistances, as the mood takes them, while everyone around keeps their own pace.


A distance that follows the wave

Gate 6, Friction, does not look for an argument: it regulates a distance, through small resistances, according to the mood of the moment. In this Juxtaposition, which is credited with fixed fate, it shares the Solar Plexus with the 36, without either completing the other.

The Channel of Intimacy, which the 6 would form with its harmonic gate, Gate 59, Sexuality, would define this center and the Sacral. The chart’s authority would then be Emotional: the 6 would measure out its distances and the 36 would go through its low points on their own wave, instead of taking on other people’s.

Not tonight

In the hardware store he has run for twenty years, Gérard and his wife have a conversation that goes nowhere: she would like to sell and move to live near their daughter. On evenings when he comes home tired, the topic makes him bristle and he leaves the room. He does not say no; he says “not tonight.”

They talk about it again one rainy Sunday, then another, at moments when neither of them is on edge. Each time, the gap narrows a little. After three months, Gérard proposes a date, two years later, and he will not budge from it.

A topic set aside, not closed

The 6 knows how to postpone a conversation without closing it. A “not tonight” leaves the question open; taken up again at a better moment, it finds an answer both sides can stand by.

The 36, at the Earth, puts big choices through a low point: an urge to change everything that subsides, then returns or does not. Whatever is decided afterward has been weighed in several moods.

Around the person, the 15 lets everyone keep their own pace and the 10 maintains conduct that does not vary. People know how the person will behave, even when a topic makes them bristle.

Putting it off, again

A “not tonight” can become a habit. Pushed back from week to week, the conversation never happens; the other person ends up deciding alone, or falling silent.

With an open Solar Plexus, the tension of a day at the counter comes home with the person. Gérard then puts the conversation off because of an irritation that belonged to a customer.

The 10 keeps its way of acting whatever the request. Advice that asks it to act like everyone else closes the conversation for a reason other than mood: it is no longer the moment that is missing, it is the way of putting it to them.

For you, for others

For you

When a topic makes you bristle, say “not tonight” rather than no, and suggest yourself when you will come back to it.

For others

Your partner has this cross: do not take their “not tonight” for a refusal, and come back to the topic on a calmer day.

Frequently asked questions about the Juxtaposition Cross of Conflict

Does a person with this cross look for arguments?

Nothing suggests it does. The 6 measures out a distance; it slows things down, it does not provoke. The Solar Plexus, its center, is also the one where conflict causes discomfort.

Do Gates 15 and 10 form a channel?

They share the G Center without completing each other. Defining it takes another channel in the chart, the 5-15 or the 10-34 for example; when open, it seeks its direction and identity through other people.

Does Gate 10, Behavior of the Self, forbid adapting?

It allows following the rules of a place. What does not move is the way of being there, the same in front of everyone.

Should a project you no longer feel like doing be abandoned?

Not on the spot. Gate 36 speaks of a desire that comes back down without the project having changed; a choice made after the low point, whether or not the desire has returned, commits you on a firmer basis.
