The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
The Third Quarter Moon is at 7:58 AM with the Sun in Capricorn and the Moon in Libra.
The last four days and today, Friday (1/17/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun joining with Saturn and Pluto (3*). This vibration is about throwing light in an overwhelming way on analysis and evaluation of what is really important to us in the long-run. There is a sense that figuring this out is absolutely essential on every level. Over and over in these days, Saturn Pluto calls us to honestly face what is happening in our lives and in our world. We are challenged to take the actions to eliminate wrong doing on all levels, to make life work better for our world, for our social sphere and for ourselves. This is very serious stuff as Saturn Pluto demands that we stop working from self-centered perspective and do that which is necessary to correct the destructive patterns in our own lives and in our world. Each of us is responsible for taking the actions that we are able to take and if each of us does that we can make things change into a more constructive long-term pattern.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
{These are modes of operation that are especially available for you to tap into today}
1 (5*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them.
8 (2*) Acting to make something real in the world, manifestation
29 (2*) Transformation through immersion in new and different patterns or lifestyles
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}
Jan 17 – Jan 18 (exact Jan 18) Mercury in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe begins to influence us around 2 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 3:32 AM on January 18 then decreasing fading out around 6 PM on January 18. This vibration is focused on the mind and it is very impulsive. Your mind will be working very fast during this time period and be prone to jump from one idea to another quickly. This can leave you feeling scattered. Keep a notebook with you to write down interesting ideas as they pop into your head so you can refer back to them later.
Dec 31, 2019 – Jan 24, 2020 (exact Jan 12) Saturn in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 6 AM on January 24. This vibration is the strongest pattern at this turn of the year. It is about sensing what is of long term importance and acting purposefully and objectively with an awareness of the long term consequences of your actions. This is a time to let trivial feelings and issues go as you focus on what is really significant.
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.}
Starting at 11:16 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:16 AM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Capricorn. This 4 hr period may find you reacting in ways you did not expect and don’t really understand. This is about old stuff surfacing in your feelings and influencing, possibly distorting your reactions. Consider whether the response you are about to make is appropriate for what is going on and if not, you need to disengage and figure out what is going on within you.
Starting at 11:56 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:56 AM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Capricorn. This 4 hr period has you evaluating your life to see what is really important and meaningful long term. You will tend to get rid of things or people that don’t fit this criteria.
At 7:58 AM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Capricorn. This is the Third Quarter Moon. See below in The Cyclic Patterns Diary.
At 1:20 PM the Moon enters Scorpio For the next 2 ½ days the Moon in Scorpio can tend to get very emotionally intense. The desire is to merge with the people you are involved with and with the projects you are working on. This can be uncomfortable for those not used to it as you can feel like you are being swallowed up. If it gets too much, just step back for a couple of minutes and take a breath, or even take a walk around the block to help you temporarily disconnect.
Starting at 2:36 PM, peaking at 4:36 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is acting and agitating (square) with Mercury in Aquarius. This 4 hr period brings two different perspectives to the feelings and the mind. Integrating these two ways of seeing things will enable you to act very effectively right now.
Starting at 3:55 PM, peaking at 5:55 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is opposing Uranus in Taurus. This 4 hr period is accentuated by the interaction of the Sun with Uranus at this same time. This 4 hours may be especially full of sudden changes in your feelings and impulsive actions as botht he Sun and the Moon interact with Uranus.
Starting at 8:26 PM, peaking at 10:26 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Venus in Pisces. This 4 hr period brings a break from all the challenges of this day. This is a time of more harmony with the inclination to access and express love. This is a very good time to get together with friends and loved ones.
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 January 17, the Third Quarter Moon occurs at 7:58 AM with the Sun in Capricorn and the Moon in Libra. This next week will be influenced by this vibration until the New Moon on January 24. There is a sense here of skepticism and a recognition that we don’t have all the answers and probably will never know all the answers. However it is important to keep hunting for as many answers as we can possibly get. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A mountain pilgrimage” which has to do with expanding your awareness of yourself and the world with humility, not seeing yourself as better than others. The Moon Symbol is “An airplane hovering overhead”. This helps us to operate from an objective perspective where we can better see the patterns of consequences and relationships around us and translate that into practical everyday realities. There is a potential here for seeking to escape the reality and the consequences of your personal situation which could result in those realities crashing into you so that you cannot avoid them.
On January 10, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Sun in Capricorn and the Moon in Cancer. This is an extremely powerful vibration with a strong need for mental evaluation and analysis of the long-term consequences of the actions we are taking right now. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A relay race” which reminds us that it is important to ally ourselves 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. The Moon Symbol is “A prima donna singing” which 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.
On December 26, a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon joined in Capricorn. This vibration will influence us until the next Eclipse Season which begins on July 2, 2020. We start a new Eclipse Season with this New Moon as the Sun and Moon are joined by Jupiter (see the discussion at the beginning of this report.) The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “Indians rowing a canoe and dancing a war dance”. 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. This is combined with Jupiter which is just one degree from the Sun and Moon. Jupiter’s Sabian Symbol is “A dark archway and ten logs at the bottom” which involves growing through facing previous actions and beliefs that have blocked and transforming those blockages into bridges that open you up to new understanding allowing you to transcend your previous blockages.
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:
Introductory Contact for Pluto New Cycle: Turning Forward of Uranus: Final Resolution of Saturn, 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.}
