The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Thursday (5/22/2025), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Moon joining with Saturn and Neptune (3*). This vibrational energy pattern is about basic interactions with the world around you that let you sort through what is important to you and figure out how to accomplish your goals in ways that work with the people around you. You are likely to take time to figure out which of your dreams and visions is really important to you and gets to the really core things you want to have happen in your life. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by developing at your own pace in the way that is natural to you, working deep inside yourself and also being involved in a network of connected people.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
1 (2*) 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:, Moon, Saturn, Neptune >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are seeing and experiencing the wholeness that lies behind the polarized realm of time and space recognizing that everything is a manifestation of the one Spirit that is All That Is. 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 continuing to be caught up in the illusion of many separate and distinct forms. 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 21 – May 23 (exact May 22) the Sun in Gemini is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Aries. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 8:40 AM on May 22 then decreasing fading out around 10 AM on May 23. This vibrational energy pattern is seeking amazing out-of-this-world experiences. Stop and look at a flower and let yourself see how amazing it is.
May 19 – May 24 (exact May 22) Venus in Aries is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Leo. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 3:41 AM on May 22 then decreasing fading out around 7 PM on May 24. This vibrational energy pattern brings a need to put energy into making the world around you more beautiful, more proportioned, more balanced. Your attraction rises up within you and brings an expression of your unique perspective on the areas of concern.
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 8:20 PM yesterday, peaking at 10:20 PM yesterday, the Moon in Pisces 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 3:27 AM, peaking at 5:27 AM, the Moon in Pisces is acting and agitating (square) with Jupiter in Gemini. In this 4 hr period your emotions will tend to expand. If you are feeling good, this can be great. If you are not feeling good, then this can be difficult. See if you can direct your feelings and thoughts to things that are pleasant and positive and you will be rewarded with some really good feelings.
Starting at 6:19 AM, peaking at 8:19 AM, the Moon in Pisces 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.
Starting at 10:06 AM, peaking at 12:06 PM, the Moon in Pisces is joining with Saturn in Pisces. This 4 hr period calls for an evaluation of your emotional patterns to see whether you are reacting emotionally to things that do not really matter where you will not remember what upset you in an hour or a day. It is about learning to let go of emotional feelings that are not about significant long-term issues.
At 12:25 PM the Moon enters Aries. For the next 2½ days you may find you want to do your own thing, this is when it is easiest to just go out and operate and express yourself in an independent manner. This is a great time to explore something you have always wanted to look into.
Starting at 1:15 PM, peaking at 3:15 PM, the Moon in Aries is joining with Neptune in Aries. This 4 hr period is about wanting to feel the magical awesomeness of your dreams and visions and to have these be the center of the way you are living your life. You are likely to find yourself caught up in your dreams and not very connected into the dull boring everyday reality.
Starting at 1:42 PM, peaking at 3:42 PM, the Moon in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with the Sun in Gemini. 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 4:42 PM, peaking at 6:42 PM, the Moon in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period there is an easier connection into deeply buried feelings than at other times. There is an opportunity here to share these deep levels with your friends and to be open to them sharing their deep feelings with you. This exchange can sometimes have a healing quality and reduce the pain within you and your friends.
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 20, the Third Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Aquarius and the Sun in Taurus. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the New Moon on May 26, 2025. This Vibrational Energy Pattern brings a potential for sudden unexpected events that can significantly change the world. You are likely working inside of yourself figuring out what you really need to do and what is especially important to you so you can figure out how to more effectively focus your energy. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Peacock parading on an Ancient Lawn” which is about 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. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Field of Ardath in Bloom” which is about embracing the connections you have with everything around you, from sources both ancient and modern, celebrating the new, amazing fruit, coming from the seeds of the ancient past, adapted and nurtured by the present and now manifesting in beauty and abundance.
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 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: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> 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 “!!!”}
