Sun in Virgo or Libra · Moon in Cancer or Leo
Antonio Tabucchi’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Antonio Tabucchi was born on Friday, 24 September 1943, in Pisa, Italy. The Sun moved from Virgo into Libra at about 00:10 local time that day, so the zodiac sign depends on the birth time: Virgo for a birth before then, Libra after. The Moon left Cancer for Leo at about 02:35 local time, which leaves the Moon sign open without a birth time. Antonio died on 25 March 2012, aged 68. No verified birth time is on file for Antonio; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
Of the eight planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, five are in air signs, two in fire and one in earth; none is in water. By modality the count is four mutable, two cardinal and two fixed. Gemini holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Mars, Saturn and Uranus. The tightest aspect is Uranus sextile Pluto, about 0.5° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Mercury, Venus and Uranus were retrograde. The Moon was a waning crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds ten other people born on 24 September, among them Birgit Sarrap, Dharius and Jim Henson.

Antonio Tabucchi’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 00:10, then Libra (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 00:10: Sun in Virgo
A Virgo Sun refines. Antonio Tabucchi is likely to notice what could be better and quietly make it so, keeping the highest standards for themselves. The art of this placement is knowing when good enough is the wiser choice.
Born after about 00:10: Sun in Libra
A Libra Sun balances. Fairness, beauty and the quality of relationships tend to shape Antonio's decisions, and this is a placement that can see both sides of almost anything. The growth lies in choosing a side when it counts.
Moon sign
Cancer or Leo
Cancer until about 02:35, then Leo (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 02:35: Moon in Cancer
The Moon is at home in Cancer. For Antonio that points to feelings that are tidal, strong and closely tied to the people they love, and to a memory for how everything felt. This Moon is restored by home, by cooking, and by being needed.
Born after about 02:35: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Antonio up, and being overlooked can empty them faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends usually bring them back to themselves.
Rising sign
The rising sign changes about every two hours, so it cannot be known without a birth time. The table below shows which sign was rising over Pisa, Italy, at each hour of the day.
Antonio Tabucchi’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Antonio yet. It shows a birth time only when Astro-Databank rates it AA, A or B on the Rodden scale (AA from a birth certificate or record, A from the person, someone close to them or a news report, B from a biography). Until then, this is the rising sign for every possible time of birth on 24 September 1943, computed for Pisa, Italy.

The chart wheel
Drawn for midday on 24 September 1943, with only the aspects that held all day. The Moon may stand up to eight degrees either side of where it is drawn. The Sun is drawn at its midday place; it moved from Virgo into Libra at about 00:10, so its sign depends on the birth time. How to read a chart wheel

Antonio Tabucchi’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Antonio Tabucchi’s private life.
Sun in Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 00:10, then Libra
purpose and vitality
Born before about 00:10: Sun in Virgo
A Virgo Sun finds purpose in being useful and doing a job properly, and Antonio Tabucchi's energy tends to stay steady as long as there is a task worth doing well. Rest is the hard part, because it can feel undeserved until everything is fixed. Typically a piece of work is still being adjusted long after everyone else would call it finished.
Born after about 00:10: Sun in Libra
With the Sun in Libra, Antonio's vitality is likely to rise in good company, and purpose to feel real when they are creating balance or beauty with other people. The risk is losing their own direction while managing everyone else's. Deciding alone is probably harder for them than deciding with a second opinion in the room.
Moon in Cancer or Leo
Cancer until about 02:35, then Leo
needs and habits
Born before about 02:35: Moon in Cancer
With the Moon in Cancer, Antonio's needs tend to be tied to home, routine and the people they check in on daily. Small rituals are steadying: a particular meal, a particular chair. The tension is reading other people's moods so closely that those moods can be taken on without noticing.
Born after about 02:35: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon needs warmth and acknowledgement worked into everyday life, not just on big occasions. A day with no one noticing can drain Antonio faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Antonio did.
Mercury in Libra thinks by weighing both sides, and Antonio tends to communicate diplomatically, often finding the version of an idea that will land well with whoever is listening. Settling on an opinion can take so long that the moment for it passes. They may change their mind in the middle of a conversation because the other point had merit.
With Venus in Virgo, Antonio is likely to love through small, practical acts of service and to value competence and reliability in a partner. People with this Venus tend to be hardest on those they love most, and can mistake giving notes for giving care. They may try to fix a partner's problem before simply listening to it.
With Mars in Gemini, Antonio is likely to act through words, argument and quick manoeuvring rather than force, and anger to come out sharp and verbal. Arguments can be won without the conflict underneath ever being resolved. A disagreement can still be under debate long after the other person just wants it to end.
Jupiter in Leo
18° Leo 15' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Leo grows through creative confidence and a willingness to take up space. For Antonio the overreach may be overselling their own contribution or expecting more credit than a situation calls for. There is a natural showmanship here that lifts a room, and occasionally a story that grows a little in the retelling.
Saturn in Gemini builds discipline around clear expression, and it often begins with doubt about whether an idea is good enough to say out loud. For Antonio that would mean overpreparing before speaking or writing anything. Once the self-consciousness eases, the result can be someone unusually precise and credible with words.
Uranus in Gemini
8° Gemini 48' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Gemini is shared by Antonio and many people born in the same few years. These are people who come of age alongside a revolution in communication, fluent in tools older generations learned later in life. The personal version is a restless need for new information.
Neptune in Libra
1° Libra 44' at midday
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Antonio among them. It idealises romantic partnership, often shaped by images of love on screen that outpace real relationships. The personal echo is a dreamy standard for what a relationship should feel like.
Pluto in Leo
8° Leo 16' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Leo is held by a whole generation, one that transforms ideas of individual power, leadership and fame. At a personal scale, for Antonio, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Antonio Tabucchi’s chart
How the planets stand to each other, tightest first. Without a birth time the orbs are those at midday, and aspects to the Moon are left out because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day.
Sun conjunction Mercury
about 0.6° at midday
With the Sun conjunct Mercury, Antonio Tabucchi's sense of self and way of thinking are fused, so an opinion can feel like a statement of who they are. They are likely to speak their mind readily, and telling a passing thought apart from their identity is a practice worth keeping up.
Mercury conjunction Neptune
about 0.7° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Neptune, Antonio's thinking is likely to be imaginative and impressionistic, working through images and instinct as much as straight logic. It is a creative and intuitive strength, at its best when a compelling idea has been held up against the facts before being embraced.
Sun conjunction Neptune
about 1.3° at midday
A Sun-Neptune conjunction tends to make Antonio's sense of self porous and imaginative, drawn towards ideals, art or causes bigger than everyday life. Compassion and creativity come with it, and so does the task of keeping a clear enough sense of who they are underneath the dream.
Mars sextile Jupiter
about 3.1° at midday
There is confident, well-aimed energy in this sextile, and not much wasted effort, since Antonio's drive and optimism pull together. Taking the initiative suits Antonio, above all when they commit to one goal and do not scatter their energy across several.
Sun square Saturn
about 4.1° at midday
With the Sun square Saturn, confidence meets resistance, often in the form of self-doubt or an authority figure whose approval feels hard to win. When Antonio pushes through it anyway, the achievement means more because it was tested.
Venus square Uranus
about 4.3° at midday
In Antonio's chart the desire for closeness and the need for freedom can work against each other, and this square is known for sudden shifts in an otherwise good relationship. The remedy is to build enough independence into the relationship that none has to be created by pulling away.
The rest, listed without a reading. Those between Uranus, Neptune and Pluto hold for years at a time, so everyone born while one holds shares it.

- Saturn square Neptuneabout 5.3°
- Mars conjunction Uranusabout 6.3°
