The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
At 12:36 AM early on Friday, August 19, the Third Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Leo.
Today, Friday (8/19/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mars joining with Saturn and Neptune (1*). This vibrational pattern is restless and dissatisfied. It is reaching out seeking something different and more satisfactory than the life it is living right now. It may well join with others to engage in this reaching seeking dissatisfaction together. There is a real strong need to take action. The world has become too dull, too mundane. There is a need for inspiration, for a sense of vision, for a reaching out into spiritual realms where there is a greater sense of meaning and purpose. This is a time to take action based on your sense of what is greater than the mundane life you live right now. Reach for the thing that gives your life meaning, the thing that your soul and spirit cry out for. (For VA Students: 11, 22).
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
11 (1*) Dissatisfaction, Restless Seeking of something different
29 (1*) Evolution through immersion in new world views
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mars, Saturn, 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 opening yourself up to new responses that have not seemed natural to you in the past, discovering new modes of self-expression. You are perceiving hidden realms and your dual levels of operation when your emotions are stilled so that you can see past the usual emotional turmoil. You are getting rid of all that is not truly part of your essence as a deeply spiritually aligned and complete person, while recognizing the truth of other people, seeing who and what they are in the essence of their beings. 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 sacrificing a true sense of yourself to please those around you. You are being unable to quiet the emotions and failing to become aware of the deeper patterns beneath them. You are refusing to look at distortions in your values and motives, clinging to rigid positions, deceiving, lying, and misleading those around you and being rejected.

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 couple of hours either side of the time given. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
All of the two planet patterns today involve the Moon. See below in 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.}
At 12:36 AM on August 19, the Third Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Taurus acting and agitating (square) the Sun in Leo. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary for more information.
Starting at 11:32 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:32 AM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn. In this 4 hr period deep feelings within you that you have buried could affect your mood. Be aware that you may be reacting to the past rather than the present. Ask yourself if you have felt this way in the past and when and with whom. Be prepared to walk away from a situation if you get triggered.
Starting at 5:05 AM, peaking at 7:05 AM, the Moon in Taurus is joining with Mars in Taurus. In this 4 hr period when the Moon and Mars join together the emotions get a lot of energy and there is a desire to go out and take action. If something blocks that action there may be feelings of anger.
At 8:06 AM the Moon enters Gemini bringing 2 ½ days where your mood may be light hearted and you may just feel like exploring your world especially in combination with spending time with friends. This is a wonderful time to stop and smell the roses or walk down the main drag in your town go into some of the shops you have never been in to just learn what they are doing. You may discover something really exciting.
Starting at 9:51 PM, peaking at 11:51 PM, the Moon in Gemini is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Aries. This 4 hr period brings a sense of emotional expansion and optimism and a desire to reach out and interact with others socially
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 12:36 AM early on Friday, August 19, the Third Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on Aug 27. This vibrational pattern is very transformative. It is strongly active and the energy involved could turn aggressive if thwarted or possibly even if frustrated. This is definitely a time to take action, the trick is to act with wisdom. There is a strong tendency to be interested in new and different ways of seeing the world. Some people may be ready to expand their understanding of life and see their world in a different way. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Daybreak”. This connects you in with a new beginning. The light of the divine could start to shine through you bringing awareness that your ego is not the core and source of who and what you are. The Moon Symbol is “A Squaw selling Beads”. This symbol reminds us that there is a price to pay for opening up to the deeper levels within us. This price is in letting go and neither overvaluing or undervaluing yourself. This is the way to connection with the beautiful spirit light within you at the core of your being.
On August 11, the Full Moon occurred with the Sun in Leo and the Moon in Aquarius. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on Aug 27. This vibrational pattern is very action oriented. There is a strong need to go out and do things. The focus is on expressing yourself in your unique way and forming your own ideas about how things work and what you need to do. This involves internal evaluation of your own motives and desires and a lot of introspection to get in touch with you really are and how to express that. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “The Zuni Sun Worshippers”. This helps you reconnect with the sacredness of all life. It brings an awareness that even during stressful times, you can connect into the universal and let the fire of the divine shine through you. The Moon Symbol is “A Big White Dove, a Message Bearer”. This symbols is about you being open to messages from spirit coming from the world around you or speaking quietly within you. There is the potential here for opening yourself to a deeper, clearer level of interaction with spirit.
On July 28, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on Aug 27. This vibrational pattern brings a focus on your own internal world and may well be a time of withdrawal. You may find yourself needing more time to yourself than usual in order to keep your internal balance. At the same time there is the indication of a need to expand either your own awareness or your connections with the greater world. The Sabian Symbol for the new moon is “An Old-Fashioned Woman and an Up-To-Date Girl”. This is about needing to balance tried and true patterns with new innovative patterns looking for the most effective and wisest course of action. There is a danger of becoming so attached to a particular point of view that you feel threatened by anything that challenges it.
On June 21 the Summer Solstice occurred as the Sun entered Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 22. The vibrational energy pattern for the solstice contains a shared potential for creative exploration. There is also a sense of shared restlessness and dissatisfaction that seems to drive people to seek something different than what they have. The Sabian Symbol for the Summer Solstice comes from the relationship of the Sun to the Moon. It is “A Gypsy coming out of the Forest” which shows the potential for people to move beyond their previously restricted viewpoint and become aware of a larger reality that they can connect into.
On May 16, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus. This is the end of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse is especially involved with Saturn seeking to focus on that which is essential and of long-term importance and to let go of passing feelings and actions that will not be remembered at a later time. This vibrational pattern involves deep inner work seeking to find the appropriate actions and includes a sense of not knowing and not being able to know all the answers. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Spaniard serenading his Senorita” which calls for you to refocus the assertive/aggressive aspect of yourself, discovering the value of love and gentleness, and seeing the beauty within you and in others. The Moon Symbol is “Indians making Camp”. This symbol is about learning to operate in a new realm where you need to learn the rules for functioning in this place so that you respect the rights of everyone involved.
On April 30, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Taurus. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse focuses on devotion to the beauty of the past with a sense of the importance of direct hands on experience seeking to evaluate what really needs to happen to properly honor the past in the present. The importance of actually taking action to make a more direct involved and beautiful world is especially emphasized. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “Deep-Sea Divers” which is about exploring the deepest realms of your being finding the tremendous pressures that are operating within you calling you to open to new awareness of your talents and gifts. Take care to keep in touch with the reality of the world around you as you are probing the depths within you.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: None >>> Turning back of Uranus: Reworking of Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune: Turning forward 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 “!”}
