The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
 
The First Quarter Moon was at 11:45 PM last night January 2 with the Sun in Capricorn interacting with an Aries Moon.
Yesterday and today, Friday (1/3/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun joining with Mercury and Jupiter (1*).  This vibration is about stepping back and seeing and embracing the big picture, getting an overview of what is happening in your life and in your world.  This is a perfect energy for the beginning of the new year as this is a time to evaluate what has happened and not happened and what we are seeking to make happen in the future.  This vibration encourages us to realize and honor the truth within us, and to share with others in mutual harmonious involvement.  Let’s make the world a better place this year than it was at the start of the year. And today this vibration is combined with Venus, Mars, Saturn (1*) which calls us to look deep within ourselves and do the hard work needed to find the beauty within our spirits and the spirits of those around us.

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 (4*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them.
14 (3*) Silence, Internal focus and discipline shared with others
28 (2*) Action from within or from silence and an Internal focus

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}

At 4:37 AM, Mars enters Sagittarius.  Mars in Sagittarius brings exuberant feelings and a desire to explore your external world and your internal world.  This 45 day period is a great time to explore someplace you have never been or to learn something new that you have been wondering about.  Take action to discover and act in a greater world for purposes that server more than yourself.

Jan 1 – Jan 3 (exact Jan 2) Mercury in Capricorn is joining with Jupiter in Capricorn. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 5 AM. This vibration is about seeing the big picture in an objective way.  This is a great energy for evaluation of what has been and what can be in this next year.

Dec 31, 2019 – Jan 24, 2020 (exact Jan 12) Saturn in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 11:58 AM on January 12, 2020 then 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.}

At 11:45 PM yesterday January 2, the Moon in Aries was acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Capricorn. This is the First Quarter Moon.  See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.

Starting at 8:38 AM, peaking at 10:38 AM, the Moon in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with Venus in Aquarius. This 4 hr period this is a time of gentleness and caring, a great time to spend with friends and loved ones.
 
Starting at 4:49 PM, peaking at 6:49 PM, the Moon in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Capricorn. This 4 hr period evaluates our actions and thoughts seeking to determine what has long term consequences and what is merely of the immediate moment.  Saturn strongly focuses on the former and tries to remove the former from our lives.
Starting at 6:18 PM, peaking at 8:18 PM, the Moon in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Capricorn. This 4 hr period deals with old patterns that are still dwelling within us and influencing our behavior.  It challenges us to release these patterns and be free of them so we can be more effective.

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 11:45 PM on Thursday January 2, the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Aries acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Capricorn. This vibration will be influencing us in this next week until the Full Moon Eclipse on January 10. This Moon phase encourages us to move more toward a clear effective expression of that which is developing within us, discarding those things which stand in the way of our development. This Quarter Moon challenges us to see the big picture and face the truth of what is really important in the long run.  It is important to not focus your energy on trivial things that you will not even remember in a few days.  The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A fire worshipper” which calls you to humbly recognize your ties to the divine essence in the heart of all things, opening up to an exaltation and a consummation that transcends ambition. The lesson is to focus beyond yourself for if you focus intensely upon yourself you will be prone to overestimate your personal powers and abilities which could lead you into danger. The Moon Symbol is “An unsuccessful bomb explosion” which calls you to face your situation and take personal responsibility for yourself and your actions recognizing that there are restrictions, limitations, and constraints on your actions here in the world.

On December 26, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurs 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:
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.}
