The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Monday (4/7/2025), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Venus joining with Saturn (8*). This vibrational energy pattern involves all the basic energies from self focused expression to involvement in a community. There is an emphasis on literary awareness and ability that is seeking to uncover and communicate about that which is really essential and fundamental. You will find more ability to write and speak clearly and beautifully at this time. This pattern is also analytical evaluating what the true foundation of your area of focus is. (For VA Students: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by opening up and curiously exploring what you are attracted to. This will work better if you allow yourself to sense the universal patterns that connect to the things you are involved with.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
6 (14*) Need for compatible interactions with others
3 (8*) Need to experience a flow of energy within and around you. Can be very distressed if your efforts and experiences do not bring this sense of flow.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Venus, Mars, Saturn >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are beginning to operate effectively in both the spiritual and the earthly realms based on a new vision and finding your unique way to respond to that vision.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are feeling alone and isolated, fearing disconnection from others if you’re true to yourself, failing to see the underlying reality in which everyone is connected.
26 Pisces = Mercury and Venus merging with Saturn [A new moon that divides its influences] You are beginning to operate effectively in both the spiritual and the earthly realms based on a new vision and finding your unique way to respond to that vision and/or you are feeling alone and isolated, fearing disconnection from others if you’re true to yourself, failing to see the underlying reality in which everyone is connected.
The 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 a couple of hours either side of the exact time of the aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
Apr 5 – Apr 7 (exact Apr 6) the Sun in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Gemini. This energy is decreasing fading out around 11 AM on Apr. 7. This vibrational energy pattern is about sharing socially with people that you are close to. This could easily be a special gathering of friends.
Apr 4 – Apr 24 (exact Apr 8) Venus in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:49 AM on Apr. 8 then decreasing fading out around 3 AM on Apr. 24. This vibrational energy pattern is about sudden feelings of attraction to beauty that are shared with another person. This is a good time to go out dancing with someone as this can also be about beautiful rhythms.
Apr 4 – Apr 11 (exact Apr 7) Venus in Pisces is joining with Saturn in Pisces. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 7:02 AM on Apr. 7 then decreasing fading out around 12:30 AM on Apr. 11. This vibrational energy pattern is about tuning into the deep fundamental beauty that underlies life. This is a level that some people would describe as spiritual
Apr 4 – Apr 8 (exact Apr 6) Venus in Pisces is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Cancer. This energy is decreasing fading out around 12:30 AM on Apr. 8. This vibrational energy pattern is about a need for flowing involvement in actively seeking to create beauty. There is a very hands-on character to this vibrational pattern. You really want to be actively involved in what you are doing.
Apr 1 – Apr 8 (exact Apr 4) Mars in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This energy is decreasing fading out around 12:30 AM on Apr. 8. This vibrational energy pattern is about sudden impulsive actions. There is a level of unpredictability here both in your actions and in the actions of those around you. This type of energy can result in accidents. Your best way to avoid some kind of accident is to be alert and in the moment during this time period.
Mar 31 – Apr 8 (exact Apr 4) Mars in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This energy is decreasing fading out around 11 PM on Apr. 8. This vibrational energy pattern is about doing the boring, essential work that needs to be done to accomplish your goals.
Mar 22 – Apr 20 (exact Apr 4) Saturn in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This energy is decreasing fading out around 5 AM on Apr. 20. This vibrational energy pattern is about learning how to stay true to the unique way you perceive life and at the same time give others space for and respect for having their own unique perception and understanding of what is happening around them.
The Moods of the Moon
{The Moon patterns only last a short period of time. They impact our moods and feelings for around 4 hours, 2 hours each side of the exact position.}
Starting at 6:36 AM, peaking at 8:36 AM, the Moon in Leo is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Gemini. This 4 hr period brings a sense of emotional expansion and optimism and a desire to reach out and interact with others socially.
Starting at 8:30 AM, peaking at 10:30 AM, the Moon in Leo is flowing freely (trine) with the Sun in Aries. In this 4 hr period your mood and emotional feelings are likely to be balanced and soft and you are just more likely to feel in harmony with yourself. This is a good time to engage in projects you need to do.
Starting at 10:08 PM, peaking at 12:08 AM early April 8, the Moon in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period your emotions could be scattered all over the place with you feeling one thing one moment and another the next moment and you have the energy and desire to act on each of these things as it spontaneously surfaces. It is good to have a little bit of you watching this process and every once in a while saying, “I better wait on that one.”
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 April 4, the First Quarter Moon Phase occurred with the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the Full Moon on April 12, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern carries a strong need to have a flowing harmonious environment within and around you. It is important to not have this need distort your perceptions of what is actually happening. This is a time to work on developing the harmonious pattern that you need by analyzing what you see happening around you and developing a deeper sense of the patterns that are in place and the patterns that are developing. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Brownies dancing in the setting Sun”. This is about connecting into a sense of celebration of the joy of life found in every moment of existence. If you are disconnected from the spontaneous joy of life, you are probably going to be feeling empty and disillusioned. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Man before a Square with a Manuscript Scroll before him”. Here you are finding an ancient source that contains information related to what you’re experiencing, giving a better understanding of this vast new world you are dealing with. If you limit yourself to current understandings and assume that current levels of awareness contain everything you need, you will be missing vital clues that are contained in ancient sources of wisdom.
On March 29, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on September 21, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern brings a sense of dissatisfaction and a restless searching that is reaching out to find something more satisfactory. There is a sense of connecting into another level of awareness that is idealistic and visionary. This awareness can either open you up to amazing deep spiritual truths or bring a sense of confusion and deceit and betrayal that needs to be penetrated to get to the truths underneath it. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon Solar Eclipse is “A False Call unheard in attention to Immediate Service”.
This is about totally focusing on the immediate project or development in which you’re engaged, ignoring all distractions, operating from a state of personal completion and fulfillment. Remaining focused at this time enables you to pursue the opportunities available to you.
On March 20, the Spring Equinox occurred with the Sun entering Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern is focused on our dreams and whether we are seeing the potential for them to become a part of our everyday life. Part of this is tapping into ourselves and being clear what kinds of dreams are speaking to us. Then comes being willing to act on those dreams and express them. This means taking risks, putting yourself out there. Remember you cannot succeed without taking the risk of failing. Count each failure as a step toward success. The Sun-Moon angle for the Spring Equinox is the Sabian Symbol “A Woman and two Men on a bit of sunlit land facing south”. This is about learning to be flexible and open. There is the potential here to see clearly how you can make appropriate choices to act either in the realm of Spirit or the realm of Matter as appropriate. You may discover competing needs within you. If you disconnect from that which is around you and isolate yourself you may experience a devastating sense of estrangement.
On March 14, the Full Moon Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Pisces. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on September 7, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern helps us connect into what we really feel deep inside of us. It encourages us to be true to those internal feelings. This can involve letting go of some emotional feelings that do not really serve us. There is a strong focus on working with others helping them to connect into the deep patterns within them that show who they really are. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Inhabited Island” which is about you truly grounding within yourself in the essence of yourself, recognizing your boundaries and empowering yourself while learning how to balance your needs against the needs of those around you. Take care to not be putting restrictive boundaries between yourself and those around you and focus only on yourself feeling alienated, deserted and alone. The Moon Symbol is “Mary and her little Lamb”, which is about loving yourself and those around you, operating based on love, kindness and friendship for mutual support, while maintaining your boundaries and your sense of self-integrity. There is a danger here of you or the other person becoming overly dependent on the other.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mars, Jupiter >> Introductory Period of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Back of Pluto: Reworking of Venus: Turning Forward of Mercury: Resolution of Mars, Jupiter, 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. Points of especially concentrated energy are marked with “!!!”}
