Norman Foster’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he is

   ☉Sun in Gemini, the Messenger

   Lit up by ideas, people and the next good question. Happiest when there is something new to learn and someone to tell about it. Self-belief comes slowly and has to be earned, one result at a time, and every result counts.

   The Sun square Saturn (almost exact at 0.1°)

2. What he needs

   ☽Moon in Gemini, the Talker

   Feels better after talking it through. Needs conversation, variety and something interesting to think about. His feelings and his imagination pull in different directions: he lives between what is real and what he longs for.

   The Moon square Neptune (almost exact at 0.2°)

3. How he loves

   ♀Venus in Cancer, the Nurturer

   Loves tenderly and protectively. Wants closeness, family and a feeling of belonging. A deep, private heart: he draws people in and keeps some feelings locked away.

   Venus conjunction Pluto (close at 1.3°)

4. How he thinks

   ☿Mercury in Cancer, the Remembering Mind

   Thinks with feeling and remembers everything that mattered. Speaks kindly and reads between the lines. A quick, original mind: ideas arrive in flashes, and he sees answers others miss.

   Mercury sextile Uranus (close at 1.8°)

5. What drives him

   ♂Mars in Libra, the Negotiator

   Gets things done through people, charm and fairness. Prefers teamwork to a fight, and fights hardest for others. When to push and when to wait takes constant judging, and he learns timing the hard way.

   Mars quincunx Saturn (close at 2.6°)

6. The shape of his chart

   In his chart, his mind, his heart and his intensity (Mercury, Venus and Pluto) gather in Cancer, and that part of life draws his attention first. No fire at all, so the bold first move comes by choice rather than by instinct.
