Closest of the aspects is the sextile between Neptune and Pluto, about 0.7° from exact at midday. Aspects to the Moon are not counted, because the Moon moves about thirteen degrees in a day.

Ottmar Hitzfeld’s Sun, Moon and rising sign
Sun sign
Capricorn
about 21° Capricorn at midday
A Capricorn Sun endures. Ambition, patience and a dry sense of humour are what tend to carry Ottmar Hitzfeld up long slopes other people give up on. The placement learns, eventually, that rest is part of the climb.
Moon sign
Gemini
in this sign all day; the degree depends on the birth time
The Moon in Gemini processes feeling by naming it. For Ottmar, talking, writing and switching perspective are likely ways to settle, and silence can make small worries loud. They probably need people who let them think out loud.
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 Lörrach, Germany, at each hour of the day.

Ottmar Hitzfeld’s planets, sign by sign
Each planet by sign: what the placement is traditionally taken to mean, not a claim about Ottmar Hitzfeld’s private life.
With the Sun in Capricorn, Ottmar Hitzfeld is likely to find purpose in building a reputation and a structure that will outlast them, with a vitality that is steady rather than showy. The trap can be measuring their worth by output alone. They may well work through tiredness instead of naming it, until someone else has to point it out.
The Moon in Gemini runs its daily habits on conversation and mental stimulation, and Ottmar is likely to settle by talking a worry through rather than sitting with it quietly. A day with no one to talk to can leave them restless. The habit is to message a friend the moment something comes to mind, before deciding what to think about it.
In Ottmar's chart, Mercury in Aquarius describes thinking that is original and a step removed from convention, and communication that works best through ideas rather than small talk. The stubborn streak is holding a position out of principle after the evidence has moved on. In a group, this is the person who asks the question nobody else thought to ask.
Venus in Sagittarius loves with enthusiasm and a need for shared adventure, and Ottmar probably values a partner who gives them room to roam. When things get serious, this placement can confuse freedom with distance. The pattern with this Venus is to plan the next trip together before settling into the current one.
Mars in Aquarius acts on principle, and its anger surfaces most over unfairness or hypocrisy rather than personal slights. Ottmar can detach from a conflict so thoroughly that the other person feels shut out. The issue tends to get argued with heat while the relationship itself is treated with strange calm.
Jupiter in Capricorn
13° Capricorn 01' at midday
growth and excess
Jupiter in Capricorn grows through long-term discipline, and Ottmar would probably rather build slowly and properly than quickly. The overreach is taking on more responsibility than any one person should reasonably carry. The authority this Jupiter brings is slow and hard-won, the kind people tend to trust more the longer they know someone.
Competence is what Saturn in Virgo builds discipline around, often driven by a fear of not yet having done enough to deserve rest. Ottmar 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 Gemini
27° Gemini 35' at midday ℞
freedom, generational
Uranus in Gemini is shared by Ottmar 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
15° Libra 10' at midday
imagination, generational
A whole generation has Neptune in Libra, Ottmar 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
15° Leo 54' 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 Ottmar, it can be a charged relationship with authority and with who gets to hold the spotlight.
Aspects in Ottmar Hitzfeld’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.
Venus opposition Uranus
about 1.3° at midday
Ottmar Hitzfeld may want intimacy and still feel a reflex to protect their freedom the moment things seem too certain; that is the tension of Venus opposite Uranus. Naming the need for space early tends to work better than acting on it as sudden distance.
Jupiter square Neptune
about 2.1° 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 Ottmar the answer may be to keep hoping and to pair that hope with an honest look at the details.
Mercury conjunction Mars
about 3.2° at midday
With Mercury conjunct Mars, thinking and the drive to act are closely linked, so ideas turn into words and decisions almost immediately. It makes Ottmar quick and direct in conversation, and the discipline is letting a thought settle before saying it out loud.
Mercury trine Neptune
about 5.9° at midday
Ottmar probably has a natural gift for metaphor, storytelling and intuitive leaps, the work of thinking and imagination in easy partnership. With Mercury trine Neptune, communicating something hard to put into words comes easily, in a way that other people often find memorable.
Mercury opposition Pluto
about 6.6° at midday
With Mercury opposite Pluto, other people's attempts to control the story can collide with Ottmar's own conclusions and turn a disagreement into a deeper power struggle. Staying with the argument itself, rather than the fight for control, resolves more.
Sun square Neptune
about 6.8° at midday
A Sun-Neptune square can blur Ottmar's sense of who they are under the pull of an ideal, a cause or someone else's story, until it is unclear where they end and the dream begins. The task is staying inspired without losing their own outline.
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.

How this page is made
Planet positions are computed with the astronomy-engine ephemeris and checked against Swiss Ephemeris. Birth dates and places come from Wikidata; birth times, where StarMap has one, come from Astro-Databank and are shown with their Rodden rating. The readings describe what a placement is traditionally taken to mean. They are written by StarMap for reflection and entertainment, not as statements about the person’s private life. New to charts?
