Matthijs de Ligt’s zodiac sign and chart, in brief
Matthijs de Ligt was born in Leiderdorp, Netherlands, on 12 August 1999, a Thursday. The Sun was in Leo, so Leo is their zodiac sign. The Moon was in Leo until about 09:20 and in Virgo afterwards, so the Moon sign turns on the birth time. Matthijs turns 27 in 2026. StarMap has no verified birth time for Matthijs, so the chart is cast for midday and leaves the houses out.
By element the count is three fire, three earth, two air and one water, leaving out the Moon, whose sign depends on the birth time. Fixed signs hold seven, mutable signs two and cardinal signs none. Closest of the aspects is the opposition between Mars and Saturn, about 0.5° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day. Four planets were retrograde: Venus, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Over the course of the day the Moon went from new to waxing crescent.
StarMap's dataset holds 20 other people born on 12 August, among them George Soros, Mario Balotelli and Pete Sampras.

Matthijs de Ligt’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Leo
about 19° Leo at midday
A Leo Sun shines. For Matthijs de Ligt 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
Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 09:20, then Virgo (local time). Which one depends on a birth time StarMap does not have.
Born before about 09:20: Moon in Leo
A Leo Moon feels with its whole heart and needs that to be noticed. Warm attention tends to fill Matthijs up, and being overlooked can empty them faster than anything. Play, creativity and loyal friends usually bring them back to themselves.
Born after about 09:20: Moon in Virgo
A Virgo Moon feels by fixing. When something is wrong, Matthijs 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.
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 Leiderdorp, Netherlands, at each hour of the day.

Matthijs de Ligt’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Matthijs de Ligt’s private life.
Purpose for Matthijs de Ligt 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 Leo or Virgo
Leo until about 09:20, then Virgo
needs and habits
Born before about 09:20: 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 Matthijs faster than a hard day with an audience. The mood tends to lift visibly the moment someone compliments something small Matthijs did.
Born after about 09:20: Moon in Virgo
The Moon in Virgo runs towards order, and a messy space or an unfinished list can unsettle Matthijs's mood more than most people would guess. Small, useful tasks are calming. The trouble can start when Matthijs's own needs become another chore to get right instead of something to enjoy.
Mercury in Leo gives Matthijs 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 Matthijs more persuasive than accurate. A simple update, in their hands, can become something closer to a performance.
With Venus in Virgo, Matthijs 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.
In Matthijs's chart, Mars in Scorpio acts with focus and intensity, and its anger, when it surfaces, tends to be controlled, cutting and hard to forget. The risk with this Mars is holding on to a grievance well past its useful life. A calm exterior gives little warning before a sharp response.
Jupiter in Taurus
4° Taurus 43' at midday
growth and excess
In Matthijs's chart, Jupiter in Taurus grows through patience, and what it builds tends to come together slowly and steadily rather than in one leap. Taken too far, that can become excess: holding on to more comfort or more stuff than serves them. They are probably generous with food, gifts and shared pleasures, and now and then generosity tips into indulgence.
Saturn in Taurus gathers its discipline around security and the things a person relies on, and Matthijs is likely to take very little for granted. The doubt is a fear that stability could disappear, even when it clearly has not. This placement likes to know what things cost before committing, and tends to stay careful even in steady times.
Uranus in Aquarius
14° Aquarius 37' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus is at home in Aquarius, and many people born in the years around Matthijs's birth have it too. The generation is defined by rapid technological and social change within a single lifetime. One person's share of it is an unusually easy relationship with disruption and reinvention.
Neptune in Aquarius
2° Aquarius 31' at midday ℞
imagination, generational
Before it belongs to Matthijs, Neptune in Aquarius belongs to a generation. Together that generation dreams about technology, community and shared futures. In one life it can become an idealism about groups and causes that real people sometimes fail to live up to.
Pluto in Sagittarius
7° Sagittarius 45' at midday ℞
power, generational
Pluto in Sagittarius is an era's placement, shared by Matthijs with many people of a similar age. This generation transforms belief, religion and ideas of truth on a large scale. In one life it can be intensity around whatever worldview a person has chosen to hold.
Aspects in Matthijs de Ligt’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.
Mars opposition Saturn
about 0.5° at midday
Mars opposite Saturn can set Matthijs de Ligt's wish to act against a fear of being blocked or criticised for it, and the result may be frustration with anything that slows them down. Working steadily around an obstacle usually gets further than fighting it head on.
Mercury opposition Neptune
about 1.7° at midday
Under Mercury opposite Neptune, clear thinking competes with the lure of an appealing story or a hopeful assumption. Checking conclusions against plain evidence keeps Matthijs on firm ground, without asking them to give up the imagination that makes their thinking interesting in the first place.
Sun square Mars
about 1.9° at midday
Impatience, or a habit of picking fights that did not need picking, can come from the clash between Matthijs's sense of self and their drive to act. With the Sun square Mars, a pause between the impulse and the action turns this friction into determination they can use.
Jupiter square Neptune
about 2.2° at midday
Jupiter square Neptune lets optimism drift into wishful thinking, and plans can end up built more on hope than on a clear reading of the situation. For Matthijs the answer may be to keep hoping and to pair that hope with an honest look at the details.
Saturn square Uranus
about 2.3° at midday
The need for stability and the need for freedom can clash in Matthijs's chart, producing either rigid routines that eventually snap or sudden breaks from commitments that were meant sincerely. Saturn square Uranus is best answered with structure loose enough to bend before it has to break.
Sun square Saturn
about 2.4° 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 Matthijs pushes through it anyway, the achievement means more because it was tested.
