Dimitris Salpingidis’s birth chart
Born 18 August 1981, in Thessaloniki, Greece. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.
Leo Sun · Moon in Pisces or Aries
Dimitris Salpingidis’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
18 August 1981 was a Tuesday: the day Dimitris Salpingidis was born in Thessaloniki, Greece. That makes Dimitris a Leo. The Moon was in Pisces until about 12:50 and in Aries afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Dimitris turns 45 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Dimitris, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
Of the eight planets whose sign does not depend on the birth time, three are in air signs, two in fire, two in water and one in earth. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is four, two and two. Libra holds a stellium, three planets in one sign: Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto. They are slow planets, so the grouping is shared with people born around the same time. Closest of the aspects is the sextile between Neptune and Pluto, exact to a tenth of a degree. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. One planet was retrograde: Neptune. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 19 other people born on 18 August, among them Roman Polanski, Robert Redford and Edward Norton.

Dimitris Salpingidis’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 25° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Dimitris Salpingidis that suggests warmth, generosity and a need to be seen for who they really are, running through much of what they do. This placement grows by learning that the light is not diminished when it is shared.
Moon sign
Pisces or Aries
Pisces until about 12:50, then Aries (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 12:50: Moon in Pisces
With the Moon in Pisces, Dimitris may well pick up the mood of a whole room. Music, water, sleep and imagination tend to restore them, and it matters whose moods they carry home. The empathy of this Moon is a gift that needs a door.
Born after about 12:50: Moon in Aries
With the Moon in Aries, Dimitris is likely to feel fast and forgive fast. Anger comes up quickly and passes just as quickly, and feeling needs a physical outlet. This is a Moon soothed by action, not by talking it over.
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 Thessaloniki, Greece, at each hour of the day.
Dimitris Salpingidis’s rising sign, by birth time

Dimitris Salpingidis’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Dimitris Salpingidis’s private life.
Purpose for Dimitris Salpingidis is probably tied to creating and being seen doing it, and a Leo Sun's vitality rises the moment there is an audience, even an audience of one. The tension is losing steam when no one is watching. The giveaway is often the extra effort that goes into something the moment someone notices them making it.
Moon in Pisces or Aries
Pisces until about 12:50, then Aries
needs and habits
Born before about 12:50: Moon in Pisces
The Moon in Pisces makes for a porous daily mood, one that picks up the emotional temperature of a room without choosing to. Quiet, music or time near water probably restores Dimitris more than talking things out. It can be easy for them to miss how much of what they feel belongs to someone else.
Born after about 12:50: Moon in Aries
The Moon in Aries keeps day-to-day needs simple: something to do right now, and permission to feel it and move on. For Dimitris, comfort probably comes from action rather than discussion. The instinct of this Moon is to pace the room or go for a walk rather than sit with a feeling until it passes on its own.
For Dimitris, Mercury in Virgo points to thinking that is precise and attentive to detail, and to clear communication, because the facts have usually been checked first. The catch is fixating on a small error and losing sight of the larger point. This is the placement that edits a message three times before sending something everyone else would have sent in one go.
Venus in Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 16:45, then Libra
love and values
Born before about 16:45: Venus in Virgo
With Venus in Virgo, Dimitris 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.
Born after about 16:45: Venus in Libra
Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Dimitris probably values harmony, fairness and someone who makes an effort to look good together. The risk with this Venus is staying in a relationship for the sake of the pairing itself. Dimitris may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.
Mars in Cancer acts to protect the people and things that matter, and its anger is usually about feeling hurt more than feeling wronged. The habit to watch, for Dimitris, may be going quiet or indirect instead of naming the upset. Other people tend to notice a shift of mood and take a while to trace it back to its cause.
Jupiter in Libra
9° Libra 04' at midday
growth and excess
In Dimitris's chart, Jupiter in Libra suggests growth through partnership and a gift for bringing people together. Excess here looks like pleasing people so broadly that every expectation becomes a commitment. Someone with this Jupiter is often the connector whose introductions and events other people benefit from more than they realise.
For Dimitris, Saturn in Libra means discipline built around relationships, and fairness and commitment are trusted slowly. The doubt is overthinking whether a partnership is truly equal. With time, people with this Saturn tend to become the ones others rely on to negotiate and to keep things fair.
Uranus in Scorpio
26° Scorpio 08' at midday
freedom, generational
Much of Dimitris's age group has Uranus in Scorpio. It changes attitudes to power, secrecy and what is held in common, often while living through upheavals in institutions once considered permanent. In an individual it tends to be a low tolerance for hidden agendas.
Neptune in Sagittarius
22° Sagittarius 09' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Dimitris in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
22° Libra 09' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Dimitris belongs to, because Pluto moves so slowly. That generation transforms ideas of partnership, fairness and what people owe one another. Personally it can be an intense need for relationships to be fundamentally fair.
Aspects in Dimitris Salpingidis’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 square Uranus
about 0.8° at midday
When the Sun is square Uranus, Dimitris Salpingidis's identity keeps bumping against a need to break from convention, which can look like sudden changes of direction that surprise the people nearby. The skill is choosing those disruptions rather than letting restlessness choose them.
Mars square Pluto
about 1.6° at midday
With Mars square Pluto, Dimitris's drive can turn into a fight for control, whether the opponent is within them or is someone who resists them. When they redirect that intensity into the work itself, the friction becomes lasting strength.
Jupiter conjunction Saturn
about 1.9° at midday
Growth and discipline are unusually well matched when Jupiter is conjunct Saturn, so Dimitris's optimism tends to come with a realistic plan attached. It is an effective combination for building things that last, with vision balanced by the patience to see it through.
Sun sextile Pluto
about 3.2° at midday
Dimitris's identity and depth are allies, which gives them resilience without constant upheaval. They probably handle intensity better than most, and it takes less out of them than it looks from outside, especially once they trust their own steadiness.
Sun trine Neptune
about 3.2° at midday
Dimitris's identity and imagination flow together easily, giving them an intuitive, artistic quality that feels natural rather than performed. With the Sun trine Neptune, compassion comes without much effort, and other people often sense it before a word has been said.
Venus sextile Uranus
about 3.6° at midday
An independent streak and a warm heart get along in this sextile, which tends to give Dimitris's relationships room to breathe without cooling them. The freedom involved is easy and low on drama: enough to keep a relationship interesting, never so much that it feels unstable.
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.
