Why is it masculine?
Origen is masculine in Spanish. It derives from the Latin noun "origo, originis" (feminine), but the Spanish form adopted the masculine gender, likely influenced by the -en ending which became associated with masculine nouns in Spanish (such as "joven", "hombre", "resumen"). This represents a gender shift common in Romance language evolution, where some Latin feminine nouns were reanalyzed as masculine during the development of Spanish.
