The Vibrational Astrology Diary,
by Linda Berry*
Today, Tuesday (04/25/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Saturn and Pluto (1*). The vibrational pattern today is dealing with fundamental questions of life and death. There is a recognition that there is a mystery behind life that cannot be explained. This vibration is analyzing this mystery seeking to find out the most fundamental things it can discover. This is a time when you may connect in with a sense of something beyond the everyday routine of life, something more fundamental that you can tap into. (For VA Students: 31)

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Saturn, Pluto >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are forming a working pattern for dealing with the world that enables you to function while you continue to learn about yourself and work on your deeper issues. You are displaying the disciplined orderly aspects of yourself, building up your strength, seeking to keep the more disreputable aspects under control. You are studying the remaining shells of ancient spiritual groups, making a deeper connection to the stability underlying reality as you open up to varying perspectives on the truth. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are pretending that you have everything together and refusing to even consider that there might be something you need to deal with deep within you. You are using the display of your strength and control and power to dominate, control and suppress any opposition. You are dogmatically pushing your beliefs on others, believing that you know the one and only true way, seeking to force other people to follow your beliefs.

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}
Apr 24 – Apr 26 (exact Apr 25) the Sun in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with Saturn in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 6:48 AM then decreasing fading out around 9 AM on Apr 26. This vibration focuses on harmonious relationships with those you are dealing with. There is a strong sense of what is essential to making your relationships work well. If you have a friend or partner that you need to talk with, this could be a good time to sit down and discuss what is happening in your relationship.
Apr 21 – Apr 26 (exact Apr 23) Mercury in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Cancer. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 4 AM. This vibration brings a lot of mental stimulation. This is a good time to tackle some area you have been wanting to learn. Look for how you can put the learning into practical applications.
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 10:10PM yesterday, peaking at 12:10 AM, early April 25, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with the Sun in Taurus. In this 4 hr period you will feel a lightening of your mood with your emotions flowing easily in interaction with others. A meeting or a social gathering would be smoother and easier right now.
Starting at 10:40PM yesterday, peaking at 12:40 AM, early April 25, the Moon in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This 4 hr period stimulates an internal awareness of the patterns that are working for your long term benefit and those that are undermining your goals. It is easy to shift at this time to a more effective expression related to your goals.
Starting at 5:46PM, peaking at 7:46 PM, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Mercury in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings a focus on thinking and communicating those thoughts, so writing down your thoughts, and possibly communicating what you are thinking about in a discussion or just sitting and thinking for a while would be profitable. This has the emotions and the mind interacting well and is a good time to work on important projects.
Starting at 9:08PM, peaking at 11:08 PM, the Moon in Cancer is joining with Mars in Cancer. In this 4 hr period when the Moon and Mars join together the emotions get a lot of energy and there is a desire to go out and take action. If something blocks that action there may be feelings of anger.
The Cyclic Patterns Diary {These are patterns that continue over an extended period oftime 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 April 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and the Moon in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 14. This eclipse in Aries emphasizes our connection with ourselves and encourages you to find a way to do what you feel called to do deep within you. There is a focus on interacting with the world and exploring whatever we are drawn to. This process can be very creative. And with this vibration it leads to taking actions based on your discoveries. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A Duck Pond and its Brood”. This is about recognizing that you are operating within a bounded,limited sphere of activity where you are inter-linked with a particular group of people. It is important to realize that you are interconnected with people in a larger realm and to realize that you need to take into account this larger realm rather than just focusing on the needs of your group.
On March 20 the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun enters Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 21. This is the balancing point of the year when the days and nights are of equal length. This year’s Spring Equinox brings a strong feeling of needing to have your ideas be exceprtional and amazing. The vibration for Spring is deeply involved in sharing other people’s stories and there is a tendency to act based on the things you have learned from others to seek to make the lives of those around you better. The Sabian Symbol for the distance from the Sun to the Moon is “A master instructing his pupil. This is about participating in the transfer of higher knowledge and wisdom, being open to receiving deep insights from unexpected places. This energy becomes distorted if you claim a superior status and special privileges based on your position. This is about recognizing the worth and authority of each person.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Saturn >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Pluto: Reworking of Mercury: Resolution of Uranus {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 “!”}
