The Right Angle Cross of the Four Ways (Version 2)

Full breakdown

The second variation puts the Sun in gate 33, Retreat — privacy, the need to withdraw in space and time, to become genuinely unreachable for a while. Civilization itself, in a sense, begins the moment a person gets their own room; that's where this need for privacy actually starts.

This privacy doesn't have to be purely personal — it can extend to protecting a family, a household, a shared shelter. But it starts with the same basic capacity: the ability to close a door, literally or figuratively, and become inaccessible to everyone else for a while. Owning that kind of private space, even briefly, is one of civilization's real gifts, and this cross carries its origin point.
