Marco Materazzi’s birth chart
Born 19 August 1973, in Lecce, Italy. StarMap has no verified birth time yet.
Leo Sun · Moon in Aries or Taurus
Marco Materazzi’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
19 August 1973 was a Sunday: the day Marco Materazzi was born in Lecce, Italy. That makes Marco a Leo. The Moon left Aries for Taurus at about 11:15 local time, which leaves the Moon sign open without a birth time. Marco turns 53 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Marco, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
By element the count is three fire, three air, one earth and one water, leaving out the Moon and Venus, whose signs depend on the birth time. Across cardinal, fixed and mutable signs the split is three, four and one. Closest of the aspects is the sextile between Jupiter 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. One planet was retrograde: Jupiter. The Moon was waning gibbous, between full and last quarter.
StarMap's dataset holds 12 other people born on 19 August, among them Matthew Perry, Satya Nadella and Gene Roddenberry.

Marco Materazzi’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 26° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Marco Materazzi 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
Aries or Taurus
Aries until about 11:15, then Taurus (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 11:15: Moon in Aries
With the Moon in Aries, Marco 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.
Born after about 11:15: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon feels through the body and its surroundings. On this reading, good food, familiar places and slow evenings are what restore Marco, and sudden change lands hard. Once they feel safe, they can be the steadiest person in the room.
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 Lecce, Italy, at each hour of the day.
Marco Materazzi’s rising sign, by birth time
StarMap has not verified a birth time for Marco 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 19 August 1973, computed for Lecce, Italy.

Marco Materazzi’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Marco Materazzi’s private life.
Purpose for Marco Materazzi 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 Aries or Taurus
Aries until about 11:15, then Taurus
needs and habits
Born before about 11:15: 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 Marco, 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.
Born after about 11:15: Moon in Taurus
A Taurus Moon needs routine, familiar food and physical comfort to feel steady from day to day. A sudden change of schedule probably unsettles Marco more than they let on. A good bed, a favourite mug or the same coffee order can turn an unsteady morning around.
Mercury in Leo gives Marco a mind that thinks in confident, story-shaped terms and communicates with warmth and a bit of flair, drawing people in even when the subject is dry. Attachment to being right can make Marco more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
Venus in Virgo or Libra
Virgo until about 03:10, then Libra
love and values
Born before about 03:10: Venus in Virgo
With Venus in Virgo, Marco 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 03:10: Venus in Libra
Venus in Libra loves with an instinct for balance and partnership, and Marco 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. Marco may give up a personal preference before anyone has even asked.
Mars in Taurus acts deliberately and sticks with a course once chosen, and its anger builds slowly but takes a long time to cool once it arrives. At times Marco may dig in out of stubbornness rather than conviction. It takes real provocation to make this Mars snap, and the rattled feeling tends to last a while afterwards.
Jupiter in Aquarius
4° Aquarius 44' at midday ℞
growth and excess
Jupiter in Aquarius grows through community, ideas and causes bigger than one life. Marco may put so much trust in a theory or a group that its practical flaws are overlooked. Optimism about the future can make them a natural organiser of other people's efforts.
Emotional security is where Marco's Saturn in Cancer builds discipline; it is a placement often associated with learning early to be the steady one. Asking for care tends to be difficult with this Saturn, even when care is clearly needed. Over time, people with this placement often become the dependable anchor for others, including some who never quite return the favour.
Uranus in Libra
20° Libra 08' at midday
freedom, generational
Marco holds Uranus in Libra in common with many people born in the same stretch of years. Together that generation reshapes ideas of partnership, fairness and how relationships are arranged. Its personal side is a readiness to question traditional roles more openly than earlier generations felt able to.
Neptune in Sagittarius
4° Sagittarius 39' at midday
imagination, generational
Neptune in Sagittarius is the dream of a generation: grand systems of belief and utopian journeys. What belongs to Marco in it may be a hopeful conviction that the right philosophy will resolve a practical problem.
Pluto in Libra
2° Libra 52' at midday
power, generational
Pluto in Libra is the signature of the generation Marco 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 Marco Materazzi’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.
Jupiter sextile Neptune
about 0.1° at midday
Inspired ideas are within Marco Materazzi's reach without any loss of footing, since possibility and imagination are gently linked by this sextile. The optimism is soft and workable, useful for keeping a project hopeful without letting it drift far from what is real.
Mars sextile Saturn
about 1.0° at midday
Sustained effort feels manageable, not draining, when Mars and Saturn are in sextile, and Marco has that combination of drive and discipline. What results is quiet, dependable follow-through, the kind that gets a long project finished while flashier approaches give out halfway.
Saturn square Pluto
about 1.1° at midday
Saturn square Pluto sets the need for control against the instinct for transformation, and Marco may grip a structure most tightly at the very moment it needs to change. Each old form that is let go leaves a strength behind that is more real than the grip was.
Venus square Saturn
about 1.4° at midday
Venus square Saturn can pair the desire for closeness with a fear of not being quite enough to keep it. For Marco that may mean self-doubt in relationships that have given no reason for it, and the fear can ease each time they let themselves be loved without first having to deserve it.
Jupiter trine Pluto
about 1.9° at midday
In this trine, Marco's optimism and capacity for transformation feed each other, and the combination can give them the power to turn a big vision into lasting change. The growth it brings tends to be deep as well as broad, which is why the bigger changes usually stick.
Mars square Jupiter
about 2.0° at midday
Drive can outrun capacity under Mars square Jupiter, and Marco may overextend on a project or on a promise made in a burst of confidence. The enthusiasm is sound. It needs matching to a pace that can be sustained.
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.
