The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Friday (1/29/21) the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun joining with Jupiter and Saturn (2*). This vibration deals with the process of growth at a reasonable pace that lets you adjust to changes and growth experiences before moving on to the next one. The process in this interaction of the Sun, with Saturn and Jupiter involves the Sun moving from Saturn into Jupiter. This means that the fears and insecurities are brought to light. There is a strong awareness of what is constricting or limiting your true expression of yourself. This leads to a releasing of fear and constriction which enables you to grow and expand into a new way of experiencing life that feels freer and more open. The Sun, Saturn and Neptune is still active enough to provide a sense of connection to something beyond yourself that is guiding this growth process.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Jupiter, Saturn
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are studying the shells remaining of ancient spiritual truths, making a deeper connection to the stability underlying reality as you open up to varying perspectives on the truth. You are receiving guidance, knowledge and wisdom from the spirit world and the ancestors, evaluating which parts of the ancient wisdom are effective in addressing the problems of today. You are remaining true to your sense of yourself and your personal integrity, even if it means losing the approval and adulation that you have been receiving from others. The most dysfunctional expression of this message: You are dogmatically pushing your beliefs on others, believing that you know the one and only true way, seeking to force other people to follow your beliefs. You are being caught up in tradition, limited and bound by the patterns of the past and the approval of the elders, seeking to validate what you’re doing and prove to yourself that you have worth. You are doing whatever you need to do to retain your popular appeal, losing track of yourself and what truly represents you in the process.

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 27 – Jan 30 (exact Jan 28) the Sun in Aquarius is joining with Jupiter in Aquarius. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 3 AM on January 30. This vibration brings feelings of expansiveness and optimism and is especially interested in our connections to each other and our group processes. Groups activities may be especially effective at this time.
Jan 27 Jan 29 (exact Jan 28) Venus in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 7 AM. This vibration brings intense feelings of attraction that may not make rational sense. The important thing to remember is that this is just a passing phase and it will fade as this aspect fades.
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 6:53 PM, peaking at 8:53 PM, the Moon in Leo is opposing Mercury in Aquarius. This 4 hr period brings the mind and the emotions into interaction. How well they will work together will depend on whether you have unresolved emotional patterns that are interfering with your thinking process. This is a good time to engage in inner dialogue facing and working with your emotional feelings.
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 2:16 PM the Full Moon occurs with the Moon in Leo and the Sun in Aquarius. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on February 11. This Full Moon vibration has a lot of keyed up, high strung energy that could potentially be triggered. This is energy that just wants to explode all over the place rather than operating in a balanced reasonable manner. The emotional feelings are likely going to feel like there is a tug of war between reasonable measured growth and big spontaneous actions right now. We may well be feeling this tug-of-war for this entire two weeks. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A popularity that proves ephemeral” which asks whether you will remain true to your sense of yourself and your personal integrity or betray who you are in order to retain your popular appeal. The Symbol for the Moon is “Early morning dew” which is about feeling a sense of nourishment, renewal, and refreshment after a long dark night of doubt and fear in which you were depressed and isolated from everything. You can either welcome the change and release and renewal or hold onto the difficulties, staying caught in depression so that you fail to see the new answers right in front of you.
On January 13, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Capricorn. This energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on February 11. This vibration is focused in each person in their own evaluation of what is happening in the world around them. Each person is especially prone to act out of their internal sense of reference and ideas about themselves, the world, and life in general. This is a time when people are not open to the ideas of those around them and are unlikely to be influenced by others. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Woman entering a Convent”. This speaks to letting go of your own personal needs in order to be of service to others seeking a deeper, and more effective connection to the universal spirit of life. Take care not to neglect yourself and hide away so others will feel sorry for you.
On December 21 the Winter Solstice occurred as the Sun enters Capricorn. This sets the pattern for the next three months. And with the Jupiter Saturn conjunction today this sets the patterns for the next 20 years. There is a potential here for a new pattern to form that brings a sense of hope that we haven’t felt in a while. This involves facing the ways we act out of the darkness within us in confusion and pain and letting a new sense of light come in to clear out the pain and bring new life. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun at every Winter Solstice is “An Indian Chief demanding Recognition” which points to the importance of each of us connecting in with a sense of inner security that brings us into our inner authority which lets us listen comfortably to others and give way when appropriate. This is combined with the Moon Symbol “An Inhabited Island” which helps us to connect deeply into ourselves this winter and recognize our own boundaries as we learn to balance our needs against the needs of those around us.
This current Eclipse season ended on December 14, 2020 and the next eclipse season will begin on May 26, 2021. The current eclipse season will be influencing us until the next one begins. The current eclipse cycle involved a push for action based on feelings of dissatisfaction. This is combined with an awareness of the importance of being true to ourselves and that our true self is tuned into a greater reality of which we are a part, something greater than ourselves that we participate in. This is a call to open up to that greater reality, become one with it and be transformed by this experience.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGE TODAY
Introductory contact for Pluto: Turning Backward of Mercury: Turning Forward of Uranus: Resolution of 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. Points of especially concentrated energy are marked with “!”}
Mercury {Jan 15, 2021 !Jan 21! [Jan 30 – !Feb 8! – Feb 21] !Mar 8! Mar 13} 11-26 Aquarius –> Jan. 28 – Feb. 1: (26-27 Aqu) Turning Back: The Issue is to base your pattern on the foundation principles of life, developing a delicate and beautiful essence within that pattern that is radiating love, peace, beauty and simplicity, as you ground yourself and use your emotions appropriately, opening to the flow of spirit moving through you, learning to cease focusing on conventionality and its meaningless trappings, closing off from subtle awarenesses and sensitivity, becoming shy and unresponsive, potentially shriveling up and dying [An ancient pottery bowl filled with violets]
Uranus {Apr. 28, 2020 !Jun 3! [Aug 15 – !Oct 31! – Jan 14, 2021] !Mar 25! May 1, 2021} 6 – 10 Taurus –> Dec. 19, 2020 – Feb. 8, 2021: (7-6 Tau) Turning Forward: The Challenge is to experience love that recognizes your alienation and embraces it; reaching across the abyss to affirm you, learning to cease rejecting the love being offered; as you continue to focus on your separateness, alienation and loneliness [A woman of Samaria]
Neptune {Mar. 2, 2020 !Apr 9! [June 22 – !Sep 11! – Nov. 28] !Feb 9! Mar. 19, 2021} 18 – 21 Pisces –> Jan. 22 – Feb. 21: (19-20 Pis) Resolution: Remember to prepare yourself by opening up in gratitude, giving thanks for what you have and trusting that you will receive whatever you need from the abundance of life, learning to cease constantly demanding and devouring everything around you, arguing, overindulging and not appreciating what you have received [A table set for an evening meal]
Pluto {Jan 4, 2021 !Feb 12! [Apr. 27 – !Jul 17! – Oct 6] !Dec 20! Jan. 27, 2022} 24, 25, 26 Capricorn –Jan. 25 – Feb. 27: (25-26 Cap) Introductory: Remember to experience an exceptional level of sensitiveness to subtle energies as you spontaneously open to delight and wonder, allowing you to make better contact with both the spiritual and elemental realms, learning to cease being so lighthearted and irresponsible that you don’t take anything seriously or being so bogged down in work that you don’t get any form of release [A water sprite]
