The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Today, Friday (2/28/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Venus joining with Pluto (2*). This vibration is very intensely in need of interaction with beauty.  There is a need to manifest something beautiful in the world, to share a sense of love and beauty with others.  You may also find yourself dwelling in your mind on the things that you are attracted to and how you can bring these things into your life more effectively. Think about what places are really beautiful to you and go spend some time there.  Or see if you can connect with people that you really love and spend some special time with them. There is an intense need here and hopefully recognizing that need will enable you to make choices today that help satisfy that need.  There will be a special sense of rightness and joy if you will honor this need for beauty today.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets
Today’s theme is about getting an objective perspective on the blocks and barriers you are encountering which can enable you to release them more easily as you see these patterns reflected in your life.  This brings a growing appreciation of your innate worth.

10 Pisces = Sun

You are flying above the limitations you encounter, getting an objective perspective on your blocks and barriers, going through the process of releasing them and/or you are losing track of what is going on around you, removing yourself from what is happening, seeking to escape your responsibilities, putting yourself above everyone else
25 Aries = Venus
A double promise
You are experiencing the double promise of (1) the realm of spirit ever present as the life of all that is with its promise to honor your free will choices and (2) the realm of matter that is embracing you with its promise to faithfully reflect back to you the patterns you carry within and/or you are trying to manipulate the pattern to gain what you want without paying the price
25 Capricorn = Pluto

The Dancing 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 first, followed by the Moods of the Moon}

Feb 28 – Feb 29 (exact Feb 28) Mercury in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe begins to influence us around 1 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 10:12 PM then decreasing fading out around 10 PM on February 29. This vibration is about your mind moving very quickly and you responding to situations very quickly.  There is a sense here of spontaneousness and even impulsiveness.  You may find your mind tends to be more scattered than usual.

Feb 27 – Feb 29 (exact Feb 28) Venus in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 5:08 PM then decreasing fading out around 3 PM on February 29. This vibration is very concerned about proportion and balance, recognizing that everyone is important.  There is a tendency here to act in your own way and not be influenced by the crowd.

Feb 21 – Feb 28 (exact Feb 24) the Sun in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Capricorn. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 1 AM. This vibe is extremely energetic and active.  This is a great time to go for a walk, do some exercise or engage in some sports.  You can also do projects and get a lot done, but be careful to be aware of what you are doing, there is a potential from Uranus to misjudge things. So double check before you act.
 
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a window of a
couple of hours either side of their peak time.}

At 2:30 AM the Moon enters Taurus and for the next 2 ½ days you feel more like you are working with the world around you with everything evolving in its own way.  There is a lot more patience here and a sense of life unfolding as it should with a sense that you and everything around you change in the ways that are natural and proper.
 
Starting at 7:50 AM, peaking at 9:50 AM, the Moon in Taurus is joining with Uranus in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings impulsive possibly erratic emotional feelings.  It is important to realize that you may tend to be over-reactive right now.
Starting at 8:51 AM, peaking at 10:51 AM, the Moon in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with Mercury in Pisces. This 4 hr period has the mind and the emotions in balance.  This is a good time to work on your current projects.
 
Starting at 5:56 PM, peaking at 7:56 PM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Capricorn. This 4 hr period is very highly energized.  There is a lot of energy that needs to be used right now.  This is a great time to be physically active, exercise, play sports, do physically demanding work.
Starting at 8:40 PM, peaking at 10:40 PM, the Moon in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with the Sun in Pisces. This 4 hr period is a time of emotional balance.  This is a great time to spend sharing with friends or working with others to accomplish a common goal.

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 February 23, the Moon and Sun joined together for the New Moon in Pisces. This vibration will be affecting us until the next New Moon on March 24.  This New Moon is especially oriented toward a sense of something special that you can share with others.  There is a push for controlled growth that is based on a solid foundation. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “A Church Bazaar” which focuses on working together to provide the resources we all need to make our lives work well, each making available what they can let go of sharing it with others.  There is a recognition here of your worth and value and the value of all those around you.

This Eclipse Season was from December 26 through January 10.  This vibrational pattern will be in effect until June 5, 2020. This is about mobilizing the resources of yourself and your group to stand up for your principles and being willing to deal with or use focused assertive/aggressive energy if necessary to reach your goal.  There is a warning that if you engage in threats and arguments and bickering, it will keep you from reaching your goals. There is a strong emphasis on mental evaluation and analysis of the long-term consequences of the actions we are taking right now. Remember that it is important to ally yourself with others in order to accomplish our goals.  That you will likely be defeated it you refuse to work with other people being unable to trust anything beyond yourself. It is important to operate on a positive level involves unselfconsciously displaying yourself expressing your gifts with humility and delight.  The challenge is to not come from a place of entitlement and self inflation.

The Winter Solstice was on December 21 as the Sun entered Capricorn.  This is the shortest day and longest night of the year as the Sun turns in its orbit to start increasing its light shining upon us. This winter season brings a great potential for creativity and sensitivity.  There is also a sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction with what is happening in your life and around you.  The challenge is to use your creativity to make your world and your life better. You are encouraged this winter to open up to your ties to the universal awareness that is at the heart of all things and experience an exaltation and consummation that transcends ambition letting of your focus on yourself that brings a tendency to overestimate your personal powers and abilities resulting in damage to yourself. For the winter there is a focus on the Sabian Symbol “Dental Work” which can help you to return your structure to its proper functional form as you rebuild your internal pattern.

The Retrograde Diary: Check out changes today: DEGREE CHANGES: Mercury, Saturn
Introductory Contact for Jupiter, Saturn: Turning Backward of Pluto: Reworking Patterns of Mercury: Final Resolution of Uranus, Neptune
{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.}
