Good point about Madonna!
Strangely enough (what about birth certificates? ) Madonna doesn't seem to know her time of birth and its never been clarified. The one used which puts 4 planets into the 12th house is a rectified chart: Rated D/D because of this unknown factor and guesswork.

She does appear to have a big heart for the needy and grew her family in this manner - of mixed races - children.
Madonna decided to adopt a young girl from Malawi. On 12 June 2009 the high court of that country granted the request, and the three-year-old girl, named Mercy Chifundo James, was flown to London on June 20th. In February 2017, Madonna adopted four-year old twin sisters from Malawi named Esther and Stella.
Although I never as a habit approve of the rectified guesswork charts, in her case there seems to be some 2nd hand information that might be eventually verifiable?
confirmed by LMR (Lois Rodden) on e-mail with Tashi on 7/24/96: "My girlfriend worked for Madonna in her management office and was on speaking terms with her father. We called him one evening and he called the hospital who looked up the records; it was 7:05 AM. I met Madonna and she is very tuned into meditation (the 12th house), loves the mystical and feels a sense of responsibility to the collective transcendence."
Why with all of this 2nd hand info was the chart still rated a D/D?. Probably because it could have been the same info passed around - especially when once published.
Michigan Rock & Roll Legends, as part of their "Bay City's Madonna Tour" on their website, writes that Madonna "was born in Mercy Hospital at 7:05 a.m. on August 16, 1958, in the Maternity Ward on the 4th floor". "The physician who brought Madonna into this world was Dr. Abraham Jacoby".

An article by Marcie Noonan from Bay-Journal, in 2003, states "Madonna Louise Ciccone was born in Bay City at
7:05 AM on August 16, 1958 at the old Mercy Hospital quite unexpectedly. Her parents... were here visiting relatives when her mother who was pregnant at the time went into labor"
It may be that it's not even the time of day but rather the YEAR that is highly in question?
Erin Sullivan quotes an email from Helen Stillwell (CPA Student) in which she writes, "On 12/16/1998, Channel 4 in London, Madonna was interviewed by [Johnny Vaughan]... She asked him what sign he was....she told him she was a Leo with an 'Aquarius Ascendant.'" He talked about a letter that Madonna had written to him... The cameraman actually showed the hand-written letter...
at the top of the letter she had written her name and birth date, August 16, 1959... It read 1959 in her writing." (Is it possible that Madonna gives out different data in an attempt to preserve privacy?)
On 17 September 2013, a forum member reported that Madonna was doing a question and answer on Reddit
[5] and someone asked her "Do you believe in Astrology? What is your rising sign? Do you feel more your sun sign or moon sign or rising sign?" and she answered: "I believe in the [science] of astrology. I do not know my rising because you need to know your time of birth, but my moon is in Virgo and I feel equally split down the middle 50% Leo 50% Virgo". With supposedly no knowledge of her time of birth, the chart she describes in the two TV interviews may have possibly been a rectification she received from a professional astrologer.
