The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Saturday (10/3/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Mars and Jupiter (1*). This vibration is very creative in a flowing way. There is a sense of stepping back and seeing the broad picture, learning and studying and creative understanding and then taking big actions that are precisely correct. There is a flow involved with people sharing with each other and learning from each other. This is combined with the foundational pattern of Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto which is again growing in strength and demanding that we grow into a greater awareness of ourselves, of those around us and of our world.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Mars, Jupiter
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are exploring the deepest realms of your being learning about the tremendous pressures operating within you opening to new awarenesses of your talents and gifts. You are experiencing the double promise of (1) the realm of spirit ever present as the life of all that is with its promise to honor your free will choices and (2) the realm of matter that is embracing you with its promise to faithfully reflect back to you the patterns you carry within. You are reaching a level of awareness where you can bring the gifts of the spirit into reality, even though you are not mature enough to effectively manage them all.
The most dysfunctional expression of this message: You are losing touch with the reality around you as you get sucked down into your depths and overwhelmed by the pressures within you. You are trying to manipulate the pattern to gain what you want without paying the price. You are getting overloaded by all the expectations for yourself that you and others have.

The Dancing 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 couple of hours either side of the time given. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed first, followed by the Moods of the Moon}
Sep 27 – Oct 20 (exact Oct 12) Jupiter in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 3:07 AM on October 12 then decreasing fading out around 6 AM on October 20. This vibration is about opening up to our dreams and expanding them making them more a part of our lives.
Sep 25 – Oct 3 (exact Sep 29) Mars in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Capricorn. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 11 AM. This vibration is about being willing to take the actions that need to be taken to accomplish the tasks you are responsible for doing.
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of their peak time.}
Starting at 9:57 PM yesterday, peaking at 11:57 PM yesterday, the Moon in Aries is joining with Mars in Aries. This 4 hr period is very active and energetic. You can use this energy constructively doing exercise, sports or physical work to release it or you may find that it tends to get frustrated and angry as the energy builds up.
Starting at 11:47 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:47 AM, the Moon in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Capricorn. This 4 hr period has you acting to make your actions and life expression more meaningful and true to long term values and consequences.
At 11:12 AM the Moon enters Taurus and for the next 2 ½ days you feel more like you are working with the world around you with everything evolving in its own way. There is a lot more patience here and a sense of life unfolding as it should with a sense that you and everything around you change in the ways that are natural and proper.
Starting at 11:13 AM, peaking at 1:13 PM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Venus in Virgo. This 4 hr period is a time of close connections and sharing. This is an important time to spend with those that you are close to.
Starting at 11:17 PM, peaking at 1:17 AM on October 4, the Moon in Taurus is opposing Mercury in Scorpio. This 4 hr period is about balancing the mind and the emotions through the two of them interacting with each other. It is important to remember that both the mind and the emotions are important parts of us.
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 October 1 the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Aries and the Sun in Libra. This vibration will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 16. This vibration is focused on us not knowing the answer to how things will unfold but challenging us to look at the possibilities and see what makes the most sense to develop and work hard to make that happen. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A canoe approaching safety through dangerous waters”. This is about beginning to move beyond the dangers of control patterns and emotional rebellion into a place of harmony within yourself. The Moon Symbol is “A man teaching new forms for old symbols” which encourages you to learn and then teach the deeper truer meanings as you are able to revise and expand your understanding of older beliefs and symbols. This is a time to move to a different understanding, to change old attitudes, symbols and beliefs.
On September 22, the Sun enters Libra. This is the Fall Equinox when the days and nights are equal. This vibration will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern calls us to look inside of ourselves and see who we really are and whether we are being true to ourselves. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Butterfly made perfect by a dart through it” which involves recognizing that your personal understanding is limited and opening up to learn and flexibly relate to others and adjust based on how they are perceiving you and what they expect of you. The Moon Symbol is “A drowning man rescued”. This is about seeking help to better ground yourself and to take responsibility for your actions, learning how to be more effective.
On September 17, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon joining in Virgo and will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 16. This Vibrational Pattern is about doing the things you feel you must do. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “A Boy with a censer” which is about modeling yourself after those who are more spiritually experienced and developed than you seeking to open yourself up and expand your awareness recognizing that you have responsibility both for yourself and for what you can do for others.
The Eclipse Season was from June 4 through July 5 and the patterns of this season will be in effect at least until the next Eclipse Season starts on November 30. The Eclipses begin by helping us to recognize that there is something special within each of us and that it is important for each of us to communicate our ideas clearly recognizing that there is a give and take to life as we share with each other. It then reminded us that we need to be adaptable and realize that we are being called to a new orientation to life. Each of us need to face our self-centeredness and reorganize ourselves to more effectively respond to the demands of ourselves and our world. We need to develop a bigger focus that encompasses all of the universe recognizing that we are part of something bigger than ourselves while at the same time being open to ancient truths that may contain wisdom that will help us to be more aware and more effective.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY
Introductory Contact for Mercury: Reworking Patterns of Mars, Uranus, Neptune, Turning Forward of Jupiter, Saturn, 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 “!”}
