The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
 
Today (4/1/19) the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Jupiter and Neptune (1*).  With Mercury in the process of changing directions it is moving very slow and this has it engaging in some extended conversations when it usually just speeds by saying “Hi” as it whizzes by.  Today the focus is on big dreams and ideals and how to express the specialness we each feel inside of us.  Part of this is to acknowledge that each person has a special essence at the core of his or her being.  Today is a good time to tap into the specialness within you and into how you can make your unique awareness and gifts a greater part of your life.  At the same time look at those around you and let them know the special things you see in them and how much you appreciate them.
 
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
20 (1*) Evolving Non-linear Creative or Playful Action
29 (1*) 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}

Mar 22 – Apr 3 (exact Mar 24 and Apr 2) Mercury in Pisces is joining with Neptune in Pisces.  This vibe is slowly increasing moving toward a second peak on Apr 2.  This is a very dreamy state of mind that is not grounded in reality at all.  It is all about dreams and visions you may have.  Wait to make any important commitments until this vibe has cleared out.  It lasts an unusually long time because Mercury is moving very slowly and changing directions as it is turning direct.
 
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns that impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of their listed time.}
 
Starting at 9:01 PM, peaking at 11:01 PM, the Moon in Aquarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Sagittarius.  This 4 hr period feels very expansive and optimistic.  Be very careful because it will be very easy to get carried away feeling unrealistic levels of optimism.  Especially be careful to curtail your spending at this time.

At 10:48 AM the Moon enters Pisces bringing a sense of the connections we all have with each other and with everything around us.  A Pisces moon is very good at connection things together that don’t look like they belong together, so use this 2 ½ days to reach out and connect with those that you thought you could never establish a relationship with, right now it might work.
Starting at 10:44 AM, peaking at 12:44 PM, the Moon in Pisces is acting and agitating (square) with Mars in Gemini.  This 4 hr period has a lot of energy in it and a big need for action.  Go do something physical and expend some of that energy.  Play an active game, take a walk or a hike, exercise.  Find someway to release that energy that is constructive.  If you don’t the energy may come out in a way that is not constructive.
Starting at 11:29 AM, peaking at 1:29 PM, the Moon in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus.  This 4 hr period involves a lot of impulsivity and a need for freedom to act spontaneously.  Give yourself the freedom to do something unexpected, whatever comes to your mind, as long as it doesn’t hurt other people.

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.}

The third quarter moon was on Mar 28 and it will be felt for the next week until the New Moon on Apr 5.  The Sun in Aries was squaring the Moon in Capricorn.  There is a lot of examination within people about what their ideals are and how well they are expressing them as well as what their dreams and visions are and whether they are moving toward the life they want to live.  The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A large hat with streamers flying, facing east”.  This is about opening up to a sense of spiritual protection and guidance.  The Symbol for the Moon is “Birds in the house singing happily” which helps you to sense the light and love that is around you, clearing your motives so that you can use power in a balanced way with a resulting surge of happiness and delight.  There is a warning here about the importance of focusing on the blessings in your life rather than whining and complaining about the problems.
 
The Full Moon occurred on March 20 with the Sun in Aries and the Moon in Libra.  This is very unusual because this means the Full Moon happens on the Spring Equinox.  This is influencing us until the next New Moon on Apr 5.  This is likely to bring events that have been taking shape for significant periods of time into focus.  Action coming from the deep places within is the focus of this full moon.  The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A woman rises out of water, a seal rises and embraces her”.  This indicates that there is the potential for a new way of being and understanding things to surface this spring if we are willing to take the risks involved and open up to the new potentials of this time.  The Sabian Symbol of the Moon is “A butterfly made perfect by a dart through it”.  The challenge here is to realize that how we perceive ourselves is not the whole picture and we need to interact with others and their expectations learning how they perceive us and be prepared to learn and grow from the feedback we have.  If you get stuck in a pattern with this symbol and try to hold onto your personal perspective refusing to accept input from others, you may well become immobilized.
 
On March 20 the Sun officially entered Aries and Spring began.  This is the Spring Equinox when the days and nights are of equal length.  We are moving into the Spring and Summer when the days will be longer than the nights.  This Spring Equinox happens just 4 hours before the Full Moon.  This would indicate that some important things are going to come to a head this Spring.  There is a focus here on our dreams and whether or not they are moving into reality.  Internal thought patterns that others may not expect are driving our actions.   The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “A bald-headed man”.  This spring people will be focused on whether the actions of those in control are based on concern for everyone involved or whether those in control are misusing their powers, not taking into account the concerns of the people affected.
 
On March 6 the Sun and Moon joined together in Pisces for the start of the next moon cycle.  This vibrational pattern will influence us for a month until the next new moon on April 5.  This moon cycle especially focuses on our dreams and visions and how well we are working toward bringing our dreams to life.  The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and the Moon is “The flow of inspiration”.  This Moon cycle brings the potential to connect into the flow of inspiration within yourself helping you to be open to that which you have not previously know or experienced.  The danger is that you will close up and get caught in a cycle of negativity that will limit your perceptions and shut you off from others.

The Eclipse pattern for the next 5 months focuses on how we use our power and whether our actions are sustainable.  We are reminded that there are different perspectives on the truth and we need to reach down to a deeper level that brings a truer, clearer awareness.  The dangers of an over inflated ego are especially focused with a reminder of the importance of stepping back for each situation and looking at what is really important.  The next eclipse cycle will begin on July 2, 2019.
 
The Retrograde Diary: Check out changes today:   PHASE CHANGES: Mercury  DEGREE CHANGES: Mercury
Introductory Contact for Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Jupiter, Pluto: Final Resolution of Mercury, Uranus
{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.}
