Louis Saha’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Louis Saha was born in 13th arrondissement of Paris, France, on 8 August 1978, a Tuesday. Their zodiac sign is Leo. The Moon changed sign at about 03:30, from Virgo to Libra; which of the two is the Moon sign depends on the hour of birth. Louis turns 48 in 2026. No verified birth time is on file for Louis; the chart is cast for midday, without houses.
By element the count is two fire, two earth, two air and two water, leaving out the Moon and Venus, whose signs depend on the birth time. By modality the count is three cardinal, three mutable and two fixed. Closest of the aspects is the trine between Sun and Neptune, about 0.1° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Two planets were retrograde: Mercury and Neptune. The Moon was a waxing crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 14 other people born on 8 August, among them Roger Federer, Dustin Hoffman and Jostein Gaarder.

Louis Saha’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 15° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Louis Saha 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
Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 03:30, then Libra (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 03:30: Moon in Virgo
A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, Louis is likely to look for the practical cause and to calm down by tidying, planning or being useful. The lesson of this Moon is to accept help without a to-do list attached.
Born after about 03:30: Moon in Libra
A Libra Moon feels through relationship. Harmony nearby tends to settle Louis, and conflict, even other people's, can unsettle them. What restores this Moon is beauty, fairness, and one person who truly listens.
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 13th arrondissement of Paris, France, at each hour of the day.
Louis Saha’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Louis 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 8 August 1978, computed for 13th arrondissement of Paris, France.

Louis Saha’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Louis Saha’s private life.
Purpose for Louis Saha 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 Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 03:30, then Libra
needs and habits
Born before about 03:30: Moon in Virgo
The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Louis's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Louis's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.
Born after about 03:30: Moon in Libra
A Libra Moon needs harmony in the immediate surroundings to feel settled day to day, and a tense conversation nearby can throw off Louis's whole afternoon. Comfort comes from pleasant company and pleasant spaces. The habit to watch is smoothing things over before they have worked out what they want.
For Louis, 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 05:10, then Libra
love and values
Born before about 05:10: Venus in Virgo
With Venus in Virgo, Louis 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 05:10: Venus in Libra
Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Louis 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. Louis may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.
In Louis's chart, Mars in Libra acts diplomatically and prefers negotiation to confrontation, and its anger tends to stay buried until it is too big to ignore. Avoided consistently, conflict leaves resentment building underneath the calm surface. The pattern is saying yes to something that rankled, then feeling it later.
Jupiter in Cancer
24° Cancer 15' at midday
growth and excess
For Louis, Jupiter in Cancer means growing by nurturing others and building a home that people want to return to. The excess can be protecting loved ones past the point they need it. Generosity here takes the form of home-cooked meals, open doors and an instinct to take in anyone who needs somewhere to land.
Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. Louis may feel like a fraud even when the track record says otherwise. The usual result is someone quietly excellent at something long before they will admit it out loud.
Uranus in Scorpio
12° Scorpio 27' at midday
freedom, generational
Much of Louis'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
15° Sagittarius 38' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Louis in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
14° Libra 27' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Louis 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 Louis Saha’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 trine Neptune
about 0.1° at midday
Louis Saha'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.
Mercury conjunction Saturn
about 0.9° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Saturn, Louis's thinking is likely to be careful and structured, and they tend to say only what they are sure of. That makes their word worth taking, and the risk is that caution keeps an idea back until it feels perfectly finished.
Sun sextile Pluto
about 1.1° at midday
Louis'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.
Venus conjunction Mars
about 2.2° at midday
With Venus conjunct Mars, affection and drive are closely linked, so, for Louis, wanting something and going after it are likely to feel like one impulse. The aspect brings plenty of romantic and creative energy; its test is letting the wanting outlast the first chase.
Sun square Uranus
about 3.1° at midday
When the Sun is square Uranus, Louis'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.
One more aspect, listed without a reading. It is between two of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, whose aspects hold for years at a time, so everyone born while it holds shares it.

Planet positions are computed with the astronomy-engine ephemeris and checked against Swiss Ephemeris.
