Alexander Zverev birth chart with time of birth

Birth data

Alexander Zverev, known as Sascha, was born on April 20, 1997, in Hamburg. Both his parents were professional tennis players. With a known time the chart has houses: Gemini rises, the Sun has only just entered Taurus, and four planets gather in the 12th house.

What is known and what is not

Wikidata, the German Wikipedia, Astro-Databank and Astrotheme all give April 20, 1997, Hamburg. The hospital is unknown, so the coordinates are for the city centre.

The time comes from his elder brother Mischa Zverev, interviewed by L'Equipe in September 2023 during the US Open. The French site We Love Tennis reports his words: his brother was born on April 20 at 7:29 in the morning, and the evening before, their mother was still playing tennis with Mischa. The L'Equipe original was not found. Mischa was about nine at the time, so this is family knowledge, not a document.

A close relative's quote with an exact minute gives a Rodden rating of A. Astro-Databank added 07:29 only in June 2026, rated B, and Astrotheme cites the brother, so neither confirms it independently: the A rests on Mischa's quote alone. One other version: 03:00 was entered in Astro-Databank in May 2017 as a news report and reverted the same day, with no source named. Before that, from 2017, Astro-Databank showed 23:00 (rating C, collector De Jabrun, source not named), first with a wrong date of 20 May and then with 20 April; it is listed as a version.

The chart is cast for 07:29 Central European Summer Time (UTC+2), which Germany observed in April 1997.

Gemini rising and Mercury

The Ascendant is at 3°43′ Gemini, and its ruler Mercury is at 8°21′ Taurus, retrograde, in the 12th house. The tightest major aspect in the chart belongs to Mercury: a square to Uranus at 8°27′ Aquarius with an orb of 0°05′. Uranus is in the 10th house.

Tradition links a Gemini Ascendant with mobility, quick reactions and a lively manner. In the classic reading a Mercury-Uranus square gives sharp, unconventional thinking and sudden decisions, and a retrograde Mercury in the 12th house turns thoughts over privately before showing them.

Four planets in the 12th house

The Sun at 0°10′ Taurus, Mercury at 8°21′ Taurus and Venus at 4°43′ Taurus form a stellium in the 12th house, and Saturn at 12°46′ Aries sits in the same house. The Sun entered Taurus a few hours before the birth, during the night. Mercury and Venus are conjunct with an orb of 3°38′.

Tradition links Taurus with stamina and patience, and Venus is in its own domicile there. Classical astrology treats the 12th house as the house of seclusion and of what happens behind the scenes, and a crowded 12th is read as a large part of life kept from the public: preparation nobody sees.

Neptune on the MC and a figure with Chiron

Neptune at 29°55′ Capricorn is in the 10th house, less than a degree and a half from the MC at 28°28′ Capricorn. In the same 10th house, already in Aquarius, are Jupiter at 18°06′ Aquarius and Uranus.

The Sun squares Neptune with an orb of 0°15′ and opposes Chiron at 28°48′ Libra with an orb of 1°22′. Neptune squares Chiron with an orb of 1°06′. If Chiron is counted, this is a T-square with Neptune at the apex. Not every astrologer counts Chiron, so the profile's list of patterns omits it. Also, the Sun is at the very start of Taurus while Chiron and Neptune are at the end of their signs: by degree the Sun's two aspects are an opposition and a square, by sign they are not; the Neptune-Chiron square holds by sign too.

Tradition links Neptune near the MC with the image the public projects onto a person and a career that depends on inspiration.

The Moon in the 5th house

The Moon at 0°26′ Libra is in the 5th house, conjunct the North Node at 28°32′ Virgo with an orb of 1°53′ and trine Neptune with an orb of 0°31′. A retrograde Mars at 17°06′ Virgo is in the 5th house too. Neptune also trines the North Node with an orb of 1°22′.

Tradition links the 5th house with play, creativity and competition. Modern astrologers read the Moon on the North Node as an emotional need that also points the direction of growth, and Mars there as energy that goes into play.
