RIGHT ANGLE CROSS OF THE SPHINX

In Human Design, Right Angle Cross of the Sphinx names a cross of direction, formed by the G center gates 13, 7, 1 and 2. Ra Uru Hu taught that Sphinx gates are among the points where global cycles enter humanity.

Which gates form the Sphinx cross?

Base form 13/7 | 1/2: Personality Sun in gate 13 (Listener), Personality Earth in gate 7 (role in interaction), Design Sun in gate 1 (Self Expression), Design Earth in gate 2 (The Direction Of The Self). A Sun in 7, 1 or 2 with a Right Angle profile is also a Sphinx. The four gates open the four quarters: 13 Initiation, 2 Civilization, 7 Duality, 1 Mutation.

Their channels run to the throat (1-8 Inspiration, 7-31 The Alpha, 13-33 The Prodigal) and to the sacral (2-14 The Beat).

What did Ra Uru Hu teach about the Sphinx?

For Ra the Sphinx is direction, nothing more. Others sense it in the aura and come for orientation, often without the Sphinx noticing, and refusing someone direction earns resentment. Some Sphinxes with an open G center orient everyone while feeling lost themselves. In the gate 7 lecture he tied the cross to logic, leadership and the future: nobody leads without followers.

What are the Sphinx locks in the cycle from 1615 to 2027?

In the Global Cycles course Ra described two sets of locks, the four Vessel of Love gates and the four Sphinx gates, each paired with a key gate set by the equinox precession. When a round closes, both sets fold into each other. Since 1615 the Sphinx pairs have been 13 with 61 (Inner Truth), 7 with 62 (Details), 1 with 32 (Continuity), 2 with 42 (Growth).

His readings: an era open to inner truth, in a first line phase since 1961; authority grounded in facts, the age of experts; creativity driven by fear of failure and material gain, which he expected to fade; and gate 42 as the gate that ends cycles.

Why does the Sphinx matter for 2027?

As the Cross of Planning yields to the Sleeping Phoenix, Ra expected direction to move away from materialism and outer experts toward each person's own authority, which he saw as preparation for the next generation. Compare Eden.
