The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
At 3:13 PM EDT on April 15, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Aries.
Today, Monday (4/15/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Saturn joining with Uranus and Neptune (0*). There are no vibrational energies strong enough to be a focus for the energy today. Instead there are two 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 vibration Saturn, Uranus, Neptune which is focused on working to have the community improve its ability to support and nurture its residents. There is a sense of recognizing that we all have responsibility for situations which are set up so that people cannot live successfully. This is about making changes to help the community work better. The second energy pattern involves Venus, Mars, Jupiter and is about seeking to find ways of living life that provide better solutions to our problems as individuals and as s community. (For VA Students: 27 || 29)
The Theme for today is to focus on relatedness with an emphasis of being totally focused on whatever you are doing so that it holds your whole attention while you are involved in that interaction.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
23 (2*) A need to respond in situations where you must act before you know what is going to happen. This involves analysis followed by taking the risk of following your personal intuition.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Saturn, Uranus, Neptune >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are evaluating possible future situations that you will face, figuring out the skills that need to be developed to protect those for whom you’re responsible, recognizing the strength, authority and responsibility within you while being relaxed at the same time, recognizing that yours is an essential role in the unfolding of universal awareness. You are experiencing emotional distress but learning how to soar above these distresses and connect with an awareness that recognizes that you’re not your emotional patterns. You are recognizing the splitting of the divine into many facets or rays of which you’re one, celebrating the beauty of the whole and the beauty of each part of the whole.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are constantly worrying about possible future problems, being fearful and overreacting and losing touch with the joy of life. You are getting sucked up in your emotional distress and drowning in it. You are locking yourself into seeing everything from a particular perspective and missing the broad overview, tending to over-analyze everything and losing track of the essence in a study of the pieces.

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 15 – Apr 26 (exact Apr 20) Jupiter in Taurus is joining with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe begins to influence us around 6 AM on Apr. 15 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 10:27 PM on Apr. 20 then decreasing fading out around 3 PM on Apr. 26. This vibrational energy pattern brings a sense of expansion focusing in the present moment without regard to the past or future. This can be a delightful experience of freedom and spontaneity. It is probably not the best time to make significant changes in your life.
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 9:17 PM yesterday, peaking at 11:17 PM yesterday, the Moon in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Pisces. This 4 hr period is probably going to have your emotions and moods whooped up a bit, you will tend to focus on something you want to do and really get on with it. You may get upset if someone interferes at this time, you won’t want to be interrupted or blocked.
Starting at 1:12 AM, peaking at 3:12 AM, the Moon in Cancer is acting and agitating (square) with Mercury in Aries. This 4 hr period involves your emotions and moods stimulating your mind and results in you needing to balance your mind and emotions in order to act in clear constructive ways. It is important for you to pay attention to your feelings and your thoughts on whatever is happening now and remember to think before you act.
Starting at 2:05 AM, peaking at 4:05 AM, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings a sense of emotional expansion and optimism and a desire to reach out and interact with others socially.
Starting at 4:00 AM, peaking at 6:00 AM, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period you are wanting to share spontaneous exciting experiences with your friends and companions. You need the freedom to be able to impulsively do what you feel like in this moment.
At 3:13 PM, the Moon in Cancer is acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Aries. This is the First Quarter Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.
Starting at 5:22 PM, peaking at 7:22 PM, the Moon in Cancer 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.
At 10:24 PM the Moon enters Leo and for 2 ½ days it brings a feeling of wanting to express yourself as a unique individual in a broad sweeping dramatic fashion. You will also enjoy the unique individual expressions of others around you.
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 3:13 PM EDT on April 15, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Aries. This will be influencing us until the Full Moon on April 23. This vibrational energy pattern is about taking actions to expand your connections and include people that you may have previously excluded. There is a sense of planning for what you really want and figuring out the way you can genuinely express yourself. You are likely to be exploring and trying different techniques to find the ones that feel the most right for you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Lost Opportunities regained in the Imagination”. This is about getting a second change and being able to reconnect with lost opportunities through the use of your imagination. There is a potential to focus on what is lost and be unable to move into a place where you can experience a second chance. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Storm in a Canyon” which relates to you recognizing that you have unresolved issues and undeveloped primitive aspects of yourself that are generating storms within you. Recognizing the source of these internal storms will enable you to work on the issues within you more effectively.
On April 8, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 2, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings us into connection with each other. We understand more and more how the life experiences of others impact our own life experiences. There is a call to support others where they need support as we also respect the importance of each person fashioning their own life pattern. There is a challenge here to learn to work together harmoniously while still respecting each person’s individual experiences and understandings. The Sabian Symbol for the Solar Eclipse is “A Young Girl feeding Birds in Winter”. Here we are making a tentative connection into and expressing the nurturing love that is the core of this realm of manifestation. This love is always there in the depths, if we will allow ourselves to connect into it, no matter what our situation. There is a warning here about trying to manipulate others by controlling what they need that they do not have access to on their own.
On March 25, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. This will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on September 17, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is especially focused on taking actions in ways that are compatible with the other people involved in and impacted by the actions. There is the potential here for sudden unexpected events to occur and for the results of one’s actions to have unexpected consequences. There is also an emphasis here of being able to get down to the true core patterns involved and to be able to see the real motives behind people’s actions. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Square brightly lighted on one side”. This symbol is about identifying your destination point and sensing the path you need to take to reach it. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Ideals of a man abundantly crystallized”. This encourages you to work internally to solidify your ideals, forming a solid foundation from which you can relate to others effectively.
On March 19, the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Aries. This pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is connecting into our deep emotional levels making us aware of these deep levels and bringing the potential for a reworking, a rebirth of these deep levels based on insight into what is actually going on within us. This insight may come as a result of seeking to act out of these deep levels and getting feedback from the world around us. There is the potential for a reality check on the foundations of our systems during this three month period. The Sabian Symbol for the relationship of Sun to Moon is “A Man formally dressed and a Deer with its Horns folded. This symbol recognized our more primitive aggressive instincts and shows that we use formal, polite relationship patterns to guide our interactions with other. This will enable us to gain control of our more primitive aggressive instincts. Displaying power, dominance and intimidation in this time period is going against the current energy flow and will tend to undermine the accomplishment of your goals.
On March 10, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Pisces. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon, the Solar Eclipse, on April 8,2024. This vibrational energy pattern involves an evaluation of the world around you to see how well it matches up with your internal sense of the way the world needs to operate. This is a time to take action to adjust the patterns around you so that they more closely match up with what is inside you. It is important to look at the consequences of the patterns within you and those around you and to adjust your actions when they are not reaching to objectives you want to have happen. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A little white Lamb, a Child and a Chinese Servant”. This is a challenge to recognize the value of all levels of consciousness, seeking to serve and teach those who are less aware than you in a gentle loving manner while you are recognizing that you are learning from everyone around you. There is a warning here that if you fail to take responsibility for yourself you may face unpleasant consequences.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory Period for Saturn, Neptune: Turning Back 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 “!!!”}
