Birth data: 1972-02-29, 10:25, La Paz maternity hospital, Madrid, Spain; Rodden rating AA*.

Pedro Sánchez was born on February 29, 1972, in Madrid, on a leap day, so in non-leap years his birthday has no calendar date. The time is known from the Civil Registry entry. The most visible feature of the chart is Mars in Taurus, half a degree from the Ascendant and in a near-exact trine to the Moon.

## What is known and what is not

The official government biography (La Moncloa), Wikidata and the birth entry itself agree: February 29, 1972, Madrid. The entry also names the place, the La Paz maternity hospital, registered in the Fuencarral district.

The entry writes the time in words, "diez veinticinco", that is 10:25. ÑTV España published the scan on August 14, 2023, in a genealogical article by Julio Merino. In May 2024 Juan Estadella found the copy in that article, and Astro-Databank cites it. The scan is low resolution and was published by the article's author, not by the government or Sánchez. Its date, time and place lines are legible and agree with the other sources. We give AA only when the record is published by the person, the authorities or a major outlet, so here the [Rodden rating](/en/methodology#rodden) is AA*: a birth record quoted by a data collector, backed by the scan.

There is another date. His 2006 marriage record, published by El Español in 2025, gives February 20, 1972. Sources at La Moncloa told El Español it was a Civil Registry error, and the birth entry, the government biography and his Congress record give February 29. We list February 20 only as a version. We found no other version of the time.

The coordinates are those of the La Paz hospital complex, not the centre of Madrid. We cast the chart for 10:25 Central European Time (UTC+1): Spain did not observe summer time between 1949 and 1974, so standard time was in force in February 1972.

## Mars on a Taurus Ascendant

The Ascendant is at 11°54′ Taurus and Mars at 12°24′ Taurus, half a degree further on, in the 1st house. Tradition counts a planet this close to the Ascendant among the most visible in a chart. Mars stands for drive, Taurus for endurance, and the classic reading of the pair is steady, persistent energy that can also turn into stubbornness.

The margin is small: Taurus rises quickly at northern latitudes, and a few minutes later Mars would be in the 12th house.

Mars is supported by the Moon at 12°51′ Virgo in the 5th house: the Moon-Mars trine has an orb of 0°26′, the tightest of the aspects between planets. Both are in earth signs. Tradition reads a [trine](/en/aspects/trine) as an angle at which two planets work together, and links a Virgo Moon with attention to detail and practical care.

## The Sun-Moon opposition

The Sun at 9°54′ Pisces in the 11th house faces the Moon in Virgo, orb 2°56′. The aspect is separating, so Sánchez was born shortly after a full moon, when the exact opposition of the lights had already passed. Tradition describes the Pisces-Virgo axis as a tension between a broad, sympathetic view and the need to put things in order. The Sun's 11th house is linked with groups and allies, the Moon's 5th with self-expression.

Mars links both ends of this axis: it trines the Moon and sextiles the Sun with an orb of 2°30′. When a third planet supports both ends of an [opposition](/en/aspects/opposition) with soft aspects, astrologers read the tension between them as manageable, and here Mars gives it an outlet in action.

## Saturn, Pluto and two fixed stars

Saturn at 0°21′ Gemini is also in the 1st house, on the first degree of its sign, and 0°45′ from it lies [Alcyone](/en/fixed-stars/alcyone), a star of the Pleiades. Saturn trines Pluto at 1°15′ Libra in the 6th house, orb 0°54′, and both planets stand at the very start of air signs. Tradition credits a Saturn-Pluto link with stamina and with heavy, slow-moving pressure, both carried and applied. The same Pluto squares Jupiter at 3°50′ Capricorn, orb 2°34′.

The second star, [Alphecca](/en/fixed-stars/alphecca), falls exactly on the Descendant, the cusp of the 7th house of partners and open rivals.

The most exact aspect in the whole chart is not between two planets: Neptune sextiles the North Node at 4°55′ Aquarius, orb 0°19′.
