The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Yesterday and today, Friday (5/16/2025), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Jupiter joining with Uranus and Neptune (2*). This vibrational energy pattern is about focusing inside yourself, moving deep inside past your emotional disturbances to the deep essence of your being. There is a sense of joy and exuberance as you open up your awareness and allow yourself to be very sensitive to the deep aspects of yourself. (For VA Students: 13, 26)
For two days now this vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by working on setting up a safe space where you and those around you can truly be yourselves without any expectations or judgment. There is a recognition of the importance of connecting in with others and having everyone be equal partners in the relationship.

13 (3*) Internally focused on connecting into and expressing your true self, moving beyond Average or Mediocre
TheSabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are working to guide the tumultuous growth within you in order to develop a beautiful, healthy structure, (this part is healthy, this is twisted and distorted and needs to be removed) even if it means you feel more exposed and vulnerable. You are paying the price required to open up to the deeper level within yourself by forging a path through your blocks and issues enabling you to make a superficial connection with the beautiful spirit light within your core. You are using humor and the resulting objectivity to make a clear analysis of the world around you, moving beyond a subjective emotional viewpoint.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are working routinely on superficial appearances without knowing when to stop, and thus leaving a mess, where you’re neglecting your deeper needs for nourishment and love. You are refusing to connect into the deeper level within you, devaluing or overvaluing yourself based on external conditions. You are getting caught up in an artificial sense of pretension and reactiveness coming from taking yourself way too seriously.

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 o fthe aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}.
May 16 – May 18 (exact May 17) the Sun in Taurus is joining with Uranus in Taurus. This energy begins to influence us around 5 PM on May 16 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 7:32 PM on May 17 then decreasing fading out around 9 PM on May 18. This vibrational energy pattern is all about being in the moment. You want to be free to respond as you feel you need to in the moment.
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 11:29 AM, peaking at 1:29 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Mercury in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings a good interaction between your mind and emotions helping you to both think and feel clearly. This is a good time to be working on important projects.
Starting at 11:45 AM, peaking at 1:45 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Aries. This 4 hr period brings a desire to feel beautiful. You will probably be more aware of your appearance and the appearance of the world around you. You may be moved to make something around you look nicer.
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.}
On May 12, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on May 26, 2025.This vibrational energy pattern is very much focused on being in the moment and responding spontaneously in the moment. There may be an unexpected surprise occurring at this time. There is an awareness that everyone is a unique valuable individual and a focus on helping each person connect into their true gifts and purpose. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Jewelry Shop” which is about you beginning to sense that you are one of the jewels, a part of the divine awareness. You can vaguely sense a higher purpose, a distant potential. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Bunny metamorphosed into a Fairy”. This is about experiencing the metamorphosis of aspects of the ordinary reality around you into their wondrous, magical, spiritual essence and starting to develop a greater awareness of this expanded realm.
On April 27, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Taurus. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on May 26, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern has you doing what you decide to do internally with no regard for the opinions of others. This can be risky. There is a sense of compulsive action that drives you whether it makes sense or not. There is a possibility of moving beyond self driven action into a form of exploration and interaction with that which you are attracted to that lets go of the drive to accomplish something and instead, just explores for the sake of exploration. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Sleigh without Snow”. This is about being aware of the unfolding of future possibilities and developing the skills and tools needed to meet those possible future situations. The alternative is to accept your current limitations, get caught up in your frustrations and be unable to move beyond them.
On March 29, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on September 21, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern brings a sense of dissatisfaction and a restless searching that is reaching out to find something more satisfactory. There is a sense of connecting into another level of awareness that is idealistic and visionary. This awareness can either open you up to amazing deep spiritual truths or bring a sense of confusion and deceit and betrayal that needs to be penetrated to get to the truths underneath it. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon Solar Eclipse is “A False Call unheard in attention to Immediate Service”. This is about totally focusing on the immediate project or development in which you’re engaged, ignoring all distractions, operating from a state of personal completion and fulfillment. Remaining focused at this time enables you to pursue the opportunities available to you.
On March 20, the Spring Equinox occurred with the Sun entering Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern is focused on our dreams and whether we are seeing the potential for them to become a part of our everyday life. Part of this is tapping into ourselves and being clear what kinds of dreams are speaking to us. Then comes being willing to act on those dreams and express them. This means taking risks, putting yourself out there. Remember you cannot succeed without taking the risk of failing. Count each failure as a step toward success. The Sun-Moon angle for the Spring Equinox is the Sabian Symbol “A Woman and two Men on a bit of sunlit land facing south”. This is about learning to be flexible and open. There is the potential here to see clearly how you can make appropriate choices to act either in the realm of Spirit or the realm of Matter as appropriate. You may discover competing needs within you. If you disconnect from that which is around you and isolate yourself you may experience a devastating sense of estrangement.
On March 14, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Pisces. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on September 7, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern helps us connect into what we really feel deep inside of us. It encourages us to be true to those internal feelings. This can involve letting go of some emotional feelings that do not really serve us. There is a strong focus on working with others helping them to connect into the deep patterns within them that show who they really are. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Inhabited Island” which is about you truly grounding within yourself in the essence of yourself, recognizing your boundaries and empowering yourself while learning how to balance your needs against the needs of those around you. Take care to not be putting restrictive boundaries between yourself and those around you and focus only on yourself feeling alienated, deserted and alone. The Moon Symbol is “Mary and her little Lamb”, which is about loving yourself and those around you, operating based on love, kindness and friendship for mutual support, while maintaining your boundaries and your sense of self-integrity. There is a danger here of you or the other person becoming overly dependent on the other.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Venus >> Introductory Period of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Back of Pluto: Resolution of Venus, 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 “!!!”}
