About Dick Fosbury

American high jumper who revolutionized his sport by inventing the 'Fosbury Flop' back-first jumping technique at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, where he won gold. His innovation completely transformed high jumping and remains the standard technique used by virtually all elite jumpers today.

Dick Fosbury the Pisces

Pisces has thin walls. A mutable water sign ruled traditionally by Jupiter and modernly by Neptune, Pisces takes the world in without much filter: other people's moods, the atmosphere of a place, the feeling under a piece of music. It makes for extraordinary empathy and an ongoing problem of telling one's own feelings from everyone else's.

Drawn from the birth date alone: without a birth time there is no Rising sign or houses, and a planet that changed sign that day shows both signs.
