The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
At 2:55 PM EDT on October 10, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Capricorn and the Sun in Libra.
Today, Thursday (10/9/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Mars joining with Pluto (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 Mercury, Mars Pluto which is compulsively recognizing and studying the patterns that are produced by the people around them seeking to understand how they work and what could be improved in them. The second vibration which is almost as strong is Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus which is seeking sudden insights into the broad patterns of the stresses and strains in their cultural pattern seeking to find ways other cultures have learned to maybe do some things better and more effectively. (For VA Students: 19 || 29)
The stronger vibrational energy is enhanced by tuning into the universal patterns and using them as the template for creating earthly forms. This is most effectively done working with others with equally shared responsibility for what is done.
The second vibration is enhanced by non-attached interactions that see what is happening from an objective state of awareness as one is engaged in seeking something that will work better than your current world, seeking a place where you can truly be yourself without criticism.

29 (0*) Involvement in other world views, seeking ways to rebalance the stresses in the social order in an incremental manner.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Mars, Pluto >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are seeing fundamental truths revealed with their camouflage removed and recognizing that life transcends the apparent reality of life and death. You are energizing and vibrating the beautiful jewel of your essence humbly opening up to it, singing out the beauty within the depths of your being. You are reaching a level of expertise where you operate from true authority and are participating in and managing the world’s hidden realities.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are focusing on the ephemeral cyclical processes of life and death and believing that that is all that there is. You are feeling a sense of entitlement and privilege because of your superior gifts and expecting special consideration. You are failing to claim your true authority as you block yourself off from awareness of the deeper realities around you and within you.

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}
All the two planet patterns today involve the Moon, see below.
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 5:16 AM, peaking at 7:16 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Saturn in Pisces. In this 4 hr period you find it easier to accept responsibility and work comfortably with others getting the things done that really need to be done.
At 2:55 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Libra. This is the First Quarter Moon, See the Cyclic Patterns Diary below.
Starting at 4:21 PM, peaking at 6:21 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is opposing Mars in Cancer. In this 4 hr period you have a lot of energy that can be shared with others in group projects or group activities like sports or exercise. It is important to guide this energy into positive channels that flow through you so that you can use it constructively.
Starting at 7:58 PM, peaking at 9:58 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Venus in Scorpio. In this 4 hr period you especially want to experience loving interactions with those that you are closest to, especially those with whom you feel a soul connection.
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 2:55 PM EDT on October 10, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Capricorn and the Sun in Libra. This pattern will be influencing us until the Full Moon on October 17, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern shows that there is a lot of emotionally based actions that are likely to be exposed to the light of day this week. There is a potential here for gathering in creative communities and developing new awareness. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Two men placed under arrest” which is about stopping operation as usual as you realize that both your ego and your subconscious have been operating in ways that are harmful to other people and to yourself. The corollary to this is that if you will not respect the rights of others and accept reasonable person and societal expectations then you must be restrained by forces outside of you. The Moon Symbol is “The Union Jack”. Here the issue is that protection must be based on respect for those protected rather than seeking to force others to follow your mold and your values. It is important to not use people’s insecurity and fear and need for protection as a way of controlling other people.
On October 2, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on March 29, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern shows a strong need for the freedom to express yourself as you feel inside. This involves the development of your own unique pattern of expression being within your culture but free to operate as who you truly are with the awarenesses you have developed. If this is blocked there is likely to be a strong sense of dissatisfaction where you join with others and reach out seeking to find another more satisfactory place. The Sabian Symbol for the Solar Eclipse is “A Professor peering over his Glasses” which encourages you to move beyond your normal mode of perception to perceive a more comprehensive reality where others are viewed kindly, seriously and with respect.. The challenge is to not get caught up in a superior position that distorts your perception and leads to you seeing others as inferior to you where they need to be bossed around for their own good.
On September 22, the Fall Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Libra. This pattern will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings a strong need to live life in a harmonious flow. This is a visceral need which you will seek to meet in the way you deal with the people around you. If you feel you are trapped in a situation that is not flowing for you there is the potential for violence. You are likely to be especially sensitive, impulsive and driven during this time period. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun Moon interaction is “A Muse weighing Twins”. This relates to weighing and evaluating the rational and irrational levels within you and realizing that they are reflections of each other. This is an opportunity to begin to understand that you need to learn to establish a balance between them based on a higher more expansive level of awareness within you that transcends both of them.
On September 17, 2024, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on March 14, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern brings a focus on dreams and ideals that last past death. This is about tuning into the long term patterns of unfolding evolving awareness that transcend the resistance of the moment. There is a major focus in this eclipse on evaluation of your motives and drives to be sure you are getting the result you want. There is also a balancing of your individual view of life against what works for everyone else. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Boy with a Censer” which involves learning how to expand your awareness and accept responsibility for both yourself and your interactions with others by modeling yourself after those who are more spiritually experienced and developed. The Moon Symbol is “A New Moon that divides its Influences” which involves learning how to operate effectively in both the spiritual and the earthly realms based on a new vision and finding your unique way to respond to that vision. If you do not realize that everyone is connected you may start feeling alone and isolated.
On September 2, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Virgo. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on October 2, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is permeated with a shared sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction. We are all reaching out seeking beautiful connections to others and more civility in our interactions. There is a sense of a soulful beauty that we could find a way to share together. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Bride with her Veil snatched away” which is about our concealment being ripped away and us each being forced to reveal ourselves and become vulnerable to transformative change. This is about us each making a commitment to open up and relate to those that are around us in a deeper, more meaningful way.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory Period of Mars: Turning Back of Jupiter: Reworking of Saturn, Uranus: Turning Forward of Neptune, 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 “!!!”}
