The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Monday (9/21/2026), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Jupiter joining with Neptune and Pluto (0*). There are no vibrational energies strong enough to be a focus for the energy today. Instead there are several clusters of energy and you will tend to be attracted to the one that you resonate with the most. The largest energy concentration is in the featured pattern Jupiter, Neptune, and Pluto which needs to express expansive ideals and visions in a smooth harmonious way building agreeable interactions. The second energy concentration joins Venus, Jupiter and Saturn working on expressing the beautiful expansive but fundamental patterns that arise within you as you are operating out of your internal sense of what you need to do. The third pattern involves Moon, Neptune and Pluto seeking to find those with whom you have a lot in common, looking to build relationships of mutual support and encouragement. For VA Students (24 || 23 || 6, 12, 18, 24, 30)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by you making connections that are not obvious seeing the underlying oneness that joins everything while stepping back and operating from a detached objective position as you are going on an adventure where you are looking into the far distance and seeking something amazing.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
24 (2*) Free-flowing action expressing of your motivations and drives harmoniously
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Jupiter, Neptune, Pluto >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are trying out new patterns of interaction with others in an enthusiastic, vivacious manner in a relaxed, defined environment, removed from general activity, cradled in the universal waters. You are embracing the polarization of your basic essence into two modes of operation, the masculine and the feminine, the active and the receptive, and the need for the flow of love to link the polarities together. You are making a deeper connection into the divine energy of light and love, healing the damage within you and within others that is the result of following distorted external patterns, becoming an experienced healer.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are feeling trapped in an interaction with a group of people you do not know well, being caught up in circumstances where expectations may force you to behave in ways that are not comfortable or appropriate for you. You are being isolated and separated from an important part of yourself, out of touch with either your ability to give to others or your ability to take care of yourself . You are making false claims of abilities and powers that you do not possess, seeking to manipulate others into believing your claims.

The Two Planet Diary
{When 2 planets interact it influences the way we want to express ourselves, our attitudes, moods, and impulses. Becoming aware of these vibrations helps us to guide these aspects of ourselves with awareness rather than being controlled by them.
There are longer patterns which tend to have more impact because we feel them for several days in a row and there are quick Moon patterns that impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of the exact time of the aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}.
Sep 21 – Sep 22 (exact Sep 21) Mercury in Libra is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Leo. This energy begins to influence us around 1 AM on Sep 21 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 6:51 PM on Sep 21 then it is decreasing fading out around 1 PM on Sep 22. This vibrational energy pattern brings a desire to share the perception of the broad perspectives and big picture of the project of interest with others who think and/or feel like you do.
Jun 11 – Oct 30 (exact Jul 25 and Sep 15) Neptune in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:26 AM on Jul 25 and at Sept 15 both during the retrograde finally fading out around 3 AM on Oct 30 This vibrational energy pattern brings a potential for shared passion and purpose. You are seeking the people who share your vision and sense of purpose and calling in order to work together.
The Moods of the Moon
{The Moon patterns only last a short period of time. They impact our moods and feelings for around 4 hours, 2 hours each side of the exact position.}
Starting at 3:16 AM, peaking at 5:16 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is opposing Mars in Cancer. In this 4 hr period you have a lot of energy that can be shared with others in group projects or group activities like sports or exercise. It is important to guide this energy into positive channels that flow through you so that you can use it constructively.
Starting at 8:31 AM, peaking at 10:31 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with the Sun in Virgo. In this 4 hr period your mood and emotional feelings are likely to be balanced and soft and you are just more likely to feel in harmony with yourself. This is a good time to engage in projects you need to do.
At 1:14 PM the Moon enters Aquarius and becomes focused for the next 2 ½ days on participating in group processes. We are all a part of many groups including our family, our friends, our community, our country and our world. The Moon in Aquarius finds satisfaction in being a part of its groups and contributing to the functioning and well being of those groups.
Starting at 5:24 PM, peaking at 7:24 PM, the Moon in Aquarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Aries. This 4 hr period could bring a distracted dreamy feeling where you are not really sharply focused. Instead you may find yourself day-dreaming about what you would like your life to be like. This is a good time to dream, but not a good time to act on those dreams. Wait until you are thinking more clearly.
Starting at 5:35 PM, peaking at 7:35 PM, the Moon in Aquarius is joining with Pluto in Aquarius. This 4 hr period is likely to bring some deep intense emotional feelings with perhaps an awareness of older patterns that are influencing your reactions right now.
Starting at 10:23 PM, peaking at 12:23 AM, early September 22, the Moon in Aquarius is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Gemini. In this 4 hr period you have an easy sense of flexibility and ability to respond in the immediate moment by connecting with others in a flowing network of curious exploration.
Starting at 11:40 PM, peaking at 1:40 AM, early September 22, the Moon in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Scorpio. This 4 hr period brings a desire to feel beautiful. You will probably be more aware of your appearance and the appearance of the world around you. You may be moved to make something around you look nicer.
The Cyclic Patterns Diary {These are patterns that continue over an extended period of time and you may find that rereading this periodically will help you effectively handle what we are all experiencing as our “astral weather” in this time period.}
On September 18, the First Quarter Moon Phase was reached with the Moon in Sagittarius and the Sun in Virgo. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon on September 26, 2026. This vibrational pattern brings a general sense of restlessness. There is a lot of awareness of the ways the societal organization is failing to meet the needs of the people involved. This brings a strong need to search for a better way for us to relate that will work better. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A boy with a censer” which involves you modeling yourself after those who are more spiritually experienced and developed than you, learning how to expand your awareness and accept responsibility for both yourself and your interactions with others. If you just go through the motions without understanding the deeper significance of what you are doing, you may experience difficulties. The Symbol for the Moon is “A flag-bearer” which is about you standing up for what you believe in as the symbolic representative of the values your community is fighting for and being prepared to sacrifice yourself for the greater cause you support. It is critical to evaluate the support you have for your ideas before you push them forward.
On September 10, the New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Virgo. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 10, 2026.This Vibrational Energy brings a pursuit of amazing out of this world ideas with passion that may border on obsession wanting your dreams and visions to come true right now. There is a sense of dissatisfaction with the “real” world around you and a restless reaching out for something different that will work better for you. You are likely to take actions that will seek to bring a different reality into your experience. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Swimming Race”. This is about learning to work through emotional issues and attitudes blocking you from forming an integrated disciplined structure that can work with others to reach a goal. The alternative is to focus on winning at all costs, seeing every intraction in terms of competition and winners and losers.
On August 28, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on February 20, 2027. This Vibrational Energy carries a strong drive to take action expressing your emotional feelings. You are seeking to communicate beautifully and effectively in the moment expressing spontaneous feelings. On a deeper level you may feel the call to probe deep inside of yourself and see if you can make a connection with something that reaches beyond your personal levels of experience. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A man dreaming of fairies”. This points to learning to see the invisible and effectively penetrating into deeper and more mysterious levels of yourself and of what is around you through your imagination; reintegrating with the rejected aspects of yourself and your world. The Symbol for the Moon is “A church bazaar” which encourages you to release your customary restraints and preoccupations and gather together the many bits and pieces of yourself to form an organized structure that can operate temporarily for the benefit of others.
On August 12, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Moon and Sun in Leo. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on February 6, 2027. This vibrational energy is focused on communication of deep purpose and awareness in your own unique way. This is about moving beyond the boundaries of common society seeking something better while creatively expressing your unique vision. There is an indication here of the possible restructuring of society with new boundaries. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “Chickens Intoxicated” which is about making mistakes due to lack of experience or preparation and learning from this to step back and go more slowly; getting the proper training. There is a danger here of seeking stimulation from that which you don’t know how to handle, being thrown for a loop, staggering around as if you were drunk on the energy you have received.
On June 21, the Summer Solstice occurred with the Sun entering Cancer and the Moon in Virgo. This Energy will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 22, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern brings a searching for a new way of experiencing life where there is a more balanced harmonious relationship between people. There is a recognition that you have to take the risk of acting based on your inner sense of what needs to be done without knowing if you will be successful. You project the outcomes of different actions but must then choose what you sense is best for you and those around you. The Sun Moon pattern of the Summer Solstice has the Sabian Symbol “A Woman and two Men on a bit of sunlit land facing south”. This encourages you to be flexible and open, seeing clearly how you can make appropriate choices to act either in the realm of Spirit and the realm of Matter as appropriate. If you are not flexible you may feel that you are being torn apart by the competing needs within you, disconnecting and isolating yourself with a devastating sense of ineptitude and estrangement from everything around you.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Venus >> Introductory Phase of Venus, Jupiter: Turning Backward of Uranus: Reworking of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Forward of Pluto{During the apparent retrograde period each planet’s movement relative to the backdrop of the stars slows down, reverses and then turns back around forward again concentrating its vibration in a particular area. There are issues that each planet focuses on during the period leading up to its turn backwards. These issues are addressed again to be reworked on during the retrograde period [in brackets] then a new understanding of these issues occurs during the post retrograde period. These issues are not from Vibrational Astrology, this is an experiment based on interpretations of the Sabian Symbols that I wrote many years ago. If an entry resonates with you, then claim it, if not, release it, it was for someone else. I would very much like your feedback on this. Points of especially concentrated energy are marked with “!!!”}
