The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
At 9:53 AM EDT on May 23, the Full Moon occurs with the Moon in Sagittarius and the Sun in Gemini.
Today, Thursday (5/23/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Venus joining with Jupiter and Neptune (5*). This vibrational energy pattern is about
Working in harmony with others. There is a great deal of concern for what the reactions of others to your actions will be. This can involve a tendency to focus on one or more people in your community and use them as reference points. The result of this is a smooth flow of action that fits in without resistance because the only actions taken are the one’s that everyone is comfortable with. There is a potential here to focus on creative support of your community. (For VA Students: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30)
An Effective Response to this vibrational energy pattern involves forming relationships and connections. This involves tuning into the universal patterns and seeking to modify patterns here on earth to be more in line with the universal patterns. There is a sense of looking far away and reaching for the out of this world experiences that may be possible.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
1 (5*) 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: Venus, Jupiter, Neptune >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are celebrating your body as an unfolding of natural beauty and delightful rightness that is an expression of the ancient supporting foundation pattern of your core that is manifesting through you. You are seeing and experiencing the wholeness that lies behind the polarized realm of time and space recognizing the everything is a manifestation of the one Spirit that is All That Is.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are vainly taking all credit to yourself and ignoring the ancient patterns that have supported and defined you. You are continuing to be caught up in the illusion of many separate and distinct forms.

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}

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 1:06 AM, peaking at 3:06 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is opposing Venus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period you are especially attracted to beauty that has a history to it. You also want to share with the people that you have a history with. You treasure deep soul connections that are built out of the history contained in the objects and people around you.
Starting at 1:13 AM, peaking at 3:13 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is opposing Jupiter in Taurus.

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 4:24 AM, 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.
Starting at 6:10 AM, peaking at 8:10 AM, the Moon in Sagittarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius.

At 9:53 AM, the Moon in Sagittarius is opposing the Sun in Gemini. This is the Full Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.
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 9:53 AM EDT on May 23, the Full Moon occurs with the Moon in Sagittarius and the Sun in Gemini. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on June 6, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings a compulsive need to expand the beauty in your life. You may have sudden experiences of unexpected beauty that will absolutely thrill you. There is a focus here on connecting into yourself and sensing what you need to do without reference to other people. This can lead to working on forming an organization or combination of some very specific ideas into a new and different conceptual pattern. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “The Garden of the Tuileries” which involves relating to a formalized expression of graceful and exquisite patterns around you that gives you a beautiful model for organizing the gifts within you. Take care to be aware of distortions and the tendency to rationalize them. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Quiver filled with Arrows” which refers to the ways we continually hurt ourselves and others by our unconscious actions. This is a call for each of us to pay more attention to what we are actually saying and doing.
On May 7, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Taurus. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on June 6, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is about reevaluation of your goals. What really are your goals? Are you accomplishing them? What are the internal motives and drives that are generating your behaviors and do these behaviors get you to the result that you really want to accomplish. There is a sense of the importance of the patterns and traditions on the past and of the need for freedom to act spontaneously in the future. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Newly Formed Continent”. This involves a sense of acceptance of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right. There is a danger that you will react to the new pattern forming within you with fear and rejection. The effective expression of this New Moon Pattern involves establishing a stable form at each point based on your current understanding while recognizing that you need to continuously revise your form as your understanding develops.
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 pattern 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.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Pluto >> Introductory Period for Saturn, Uranus: Turning Back of Neptune: Reworking 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 “!!!”}
