The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
At 5:57 PM EST, the New Moon occurs with the Sun in Sagittarius joining with the Moon in Sagittarius.
Jupiter turns direct today at 6:02 PM EST.
Today, Wednesday (11/23/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Venus and Neptune (2*). This vibrational energy is about connecting in with yourself, experiencing yourself by spending some time alone where other things do not interfere with your sense of who you are. This is also about sharing the depths of your being with others and learning how to move deeper into yourself in a group that is gathered for that purpose. This is about opening yourself up to the beauty of who you are and connecting into the dreams you have for more effectively expressing yourself by taking action that comes from deep inside you. This vibration is especially well suited to meditating or taking a walk in the woods where you open up and connect into the natural world around you. (For VA Students: 7, 14, 21, 28)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
23 (4*) Follows One’s Personal Intuition; Takes Risks
1 (2*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Venus, Neptune >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are being guided with love and care through progressive levels of awareness, growing in understanding of this beautiful place step by step. You are perceiving fantastic opportunities that need to be carefully evaluated and responded to appropriately, with the potential of opening the door to fulfillment, experiencing great success, and making opportunities available to others. You are experiencing various sorts of spirits operating within the mundane world, evaluating them and their messages for authenticity and depth, sharing appropriate messages with others. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are closing off to interacting with others, refusing to give or receive help, insisting that you can do it all on your own, or refusing to grow up and continuing to expect to be looked after and taken care of. You are naively jumping into any opportunity that appears, failing to evaluate its validity, being exploited by or exploiting others as you constantly chase after opportunities that come to nothing. You are pretending to connect into spirit realms, putting on a performance, and making up messages in order to gain your own ends.

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 here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
Nov 18 – Nov 25 (exact Nov 21) Mercury in Sagittarius is joining with Venus in Sagittarius. This vibe is decreasing in influence and fading out around 4:30 AM on Nov. 25. This vibrational energy brings beautiful thoughts and the ability to express yourself in a beautiful way. This is a special time for reading literature that contains beautiful phrases and for reading poetry.
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 1:03 AM, peaking at 3:03 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period takes you into your dreams, they are living inside you and you are feeling them. You may find yourself daydreaming more than usual. You can use this time to get deeply in touch with your dreams and draw inspiration from them to help you make them more real.
Starting at 7:38 AM, peaking at 9:38 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Capricorn. In this 4 hr period there is an easier connection into deeply buried feelings than at other times. There is an opportunity here to share these deep levels with your friends and to be open to them sharing their deep feelings with you. This exchange can sometimes have a healing quality and reduce the pain within you and your friends.
Starting at 11:16 AM, peaking at 1:16 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Pisces. In this 4 hr period there is a sense of emotional openness and expansion within you. This can feel either good or bad depending on what your general feeling at the time is.
At 3:15 PM, the Moon enters Sagittarius. The Moon in Sagittarius brings exuberant feelings and a desire to explore your external world and your internal world. This 2 ½ days is a great time to explore someplace you have never been or to learn something new that you have been wondering about.
At 5:57 PM EST, the Sun in Sagittarius joins with the Moon in Sagittarius. This is the New Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Dairy below.
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.}
At 5:57 PM EST on November 23rd, the New Moon occurs with the Sun in Sagittarius conjunct with the Moon in Sagittarius.This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 23. The pattern at this New Moon is expansive and involves dealing with the unpredictable aspects of life. There is a sense of joy and adventure here. You look at what you are dealing with, analyze it and figure out as best you can what would be effective. Then you use your intuition to sort through the analysis you have made and figure out what really needs to happen. There is an element of leaping into the unknown here with an embracing of the risk involved in truly expressing yourself. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “The ocean covered with whitecaps”. This symbol is about penetrating surface disturbances, finding deep inner peace and stillness below the surface, as you begin to perceive the underlying strength, stability and permanence of the universal into which you can tap. Try to avoid getting caught up in immediate emotional reactions that keep you from tuning into the deeper stability below the emotional level.
On November 8, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Sun in Scorpio opposite the Moon in Taurus. This is the end of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 20, 2023. This vibrational energy is seeking to get to the true or fundamental essence helping each person discover the unique essence within them and realize how amazing and beautiful it is. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A woman the father of her own child”. This symbol is about giving birth to yourself as a conscious spiritual being connected in with the greater reality around you. The challenge is not to move into feelings of being alone and abandoned which may force you into an unwanted independence without support. The Moon Symbol is “A battle between the swords and the torches”. This might lead you into engaging in a battle between the forces of light, awareness & love and the forces of domination & control with the light shining in and revealing the strongly held distortions that must be defeated. It is important to claim your power and not surrender to the domination and control of others.
On October 25 the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Scorpio. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 20, 2023. This vibrational energy brings a sense of the importance of listening to the stories of others. There is a drive towards expanded action seeking to respond to the stories and the needs you encounter in the people around you. This involves a sense of reaching for the fundamental beauty in others that you can see more clearly at this time. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “A house-raising”. This symbol is about being involved in building a new structure for yourself with the entire community generously gathering and harmoniously participating in the process according to their skills and abilities. This is a reminder that others help make our lives work right. Take care not to refuse the help of others because of a lack of trust or an excessive sense of independence related to fear of being controlled. Also be aware that you may have a belief that you do not deserve help or do not have the right to ask for help. This is your own issues. We all need help at times.
On September 22 the Fall Equinox occurs as the Sun enters Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern involves tuning into yourself and following what is within you rather than seeking to meet external expectations. There is a sense of skepticism about simple pat answers. This comes from a sense of a depth to life with a deep mystery at the very core of life, a mystery that cannot be reduced down to words.. The Sabian Symbol for the Fall Equinox is “An Ancient Pottery Bowl filled with Violets”. This is about basing your pattern on the foundation principles of life. You are encouraged to develop a delicate and beautiful essence that radiates love, peace, beauty and simplicity.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Reworking of Mars, Uranus: Turning forward of Jupiter, Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Saturn {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 “!”}
