Peter Gabriel's Birth Card: The Queen of Diamonds

2010 Performers with Genesis; 2014 Performers

Born February 13, 1950

The Prosperous Nurturer

A birth card is a calendar coordinate for the month and day. It is not fortune-telling and does not predict a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction.

In the record

Peter Brian Gabriel (born 13 February 1950) is an English singer-songwriter, musician, and human rights activist. The birth-card coordinate for February 13 is the Queen of Diamonds — a calendar position, not a forecast of the 2010 Performers with Genesis; 2014 Performers induction.

Rock Hall record

The Queen of Diamonds coordinate

Peter Gabriel's birthday maps to the Queen of Diamonds (The Prosperous Nurturer). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day), and the year is unused. It is not a prediction about a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame vote and not a verdict on Peter Gabriel. The card's own language, quoted as system copy rather than biography: You protect what you have without making every dollar a referendum on safety.

Peter Gabriel in the public record

He is known for being a co-founder and the lead vocalist of Genesis for their first eight years and for his subsequent solo career. A winner of multiple major awards, he has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Genesis and as a solo artist. While attending Charterhouse School in Surrey, Gabriel co-founded Genesis in 1967. As the band's lead vocalist and principal lyricist, several of the albums released during his tenure, such as Nursery Cryme (1971), Foxtrot (1972) and Selling England by the Pound (1973), are considered progressive rock classics. Known for his theatrical performances and stage costumes, Gabriel's relations with his bandmates became strained around the release of the concept album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway in 1974, and he left the band in 1975 following a world tour to support the album. Genesis continued with drummer Phil Collins handling lead vocals. Gabriel took a brief musical hiatus before launching a successful solo career with four self-titled studio albums, which spanned progressive rock, new wave, post-punk, and world music styles. They contained the hit singles "Solsbury Hill" (1977), "Games Without Frontiers" (1980), "Shock the Monkey" (1982), and "Biko" (1980), a protest song against apartheid in South Africa.
