The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
At 2:21 PM EDT on April 8, the New Moon – Solar Eclipse occurs with the Sun and Moon in Aries.
Today, Monday (4/8/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Moon joining with Mercury (1*).The strongest vibrational energy today is about our tuning into what is rising up from within us and reaching out to interact with the world around us in a natural flow of energy. This is a time to combine our feelings and thought patterns together bringing a fuller experience of the world as we see life from two perspectives that interact with each other, sometimes in harmony and sometimes in contradiction to each other. This can open us to a deeper understanding of the forces and patterns moving within us. (For VA Students: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
The Theme for today is about relatedness about connecting things and people together in interactive patterns.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Moon, Mercury >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are making a tentative connection into and expressing the nurturing love that is the core of the realm of manifestation, the love that is always there, even in times of apparent deprivation. You are experiencing the double promise of (1) the realm of spirit ever present as the life of all that is with its promise to honor your free will choices and (2) the realm of matter that is embracing you with its promise to faithfully reflect back to you the patterns you carry within.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are seeking to manipulate others through the control of that which they need but do not have access to on their own. You are trying to manipulate the pattern to gain what you want without paying the price.

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}
The two planet patterns today all involve the Moon, See Below.
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.}
At 2:21 PM, the Moon in Aries is joining with the Sun in Aries. This is the New Moon – Solar Eclipse. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.
Starting at 8:38 PM, peaking at 10:38 PM, the Moon in Aries is joining with Mercury in Aries. The emotions and moods and mental patterns are working together. This is a time when you are very effective in doing projects.
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 2:21 PM EDT on April 8, the New Moon – Solar Eclipse occurs with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 2, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings us into connection with each other. We understand more and more how the life experiences of others impact our own life experiences. There is a call to support others where they need support as we also respect the importance of each person fashioning their own life pattern. There is a challenge here to learn to work together harmoniously while still respecting each person’s individual experiences and understandings. The Sabian Symbol for the Solar Eclipse is “A Young Girl feeding Birds in Winter”. Here we are making a tentative connection into and expressing the nurturing love that is the core of this realm of manifestation. This love is always there in the depths, if we will allow ourselves to connect into it, no matter what our situation. There is a warning here about trying to manipulate others by controlling what they need that they do not have access to on their own.
On March 25, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. This will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on September 17, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is especially focused on taking actions in ways that are compatible with the other people involved in and impacted by the actions. There is the potential here for sudden unexpected events to occur and for the results of one’s actions to have unexpected consequences. There is also an emphasis here of being able to get down to the true core patterns involved and to be able to see the real motives behind people’s actions. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Square brightly lighted on one side”. This symbol is about identifying your destination point and sensing the path you need to take to reach it. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Ideals of a man abundantly crystallized”. This encourages you to work internally to solidify your ideals, forming a solid foundation from which you can relate to others effectively.
On March 19, the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Aries. This pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is connecting into our deep emotional levels making us aware of these deep levels and bringing the potential for a reworking, a rebirth of these deep levels based on insight into what is actually going on within us. This insight may come as a result of seeking to act out of these deep levels and getting feedback from the world around us. There is the potential for a reality check on the foundations of our systems during this three month period. The Sabian Symbol for the relationship of Sun to Moon is “A Man formally dressed and a Deer with its Horns folded. This symbol recognized our more primitive aggressive instincts and shows that we use formal, polite relationship patterns to guide our interactions with other. This will enable us to gain control of our more primitive aggressive instincts. Displaying power, dominance and intimidation in this time period is going against the current energy flow and will tend to undermine the accomplishment of your goals.
On March 10, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Pisces. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon, the Solar Eclipse, on April 8,2024. This vibrational energy pattern involves an evaluation of the world around you to see how well it matches up with your internal sense of the way the world needs to operate. This is a time to take action to adjust the patterns around you so that they more closely match up with what is inside you. It is important to look at the consequences of the patterns within you and those around you and to adjust your actions when they are not reaching to objectives you want to have happen. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A little white Lamb, a Child and a Chinese Servant”. This is a challenge to recognize the value of all levels of consciousness, seeking to serve and teach those who are less aware than you in a gentle loving manner while you are recognizing that you are learning from everyone around you. There is a warning here that if you fail to take responsibility for yourself you may face unpleasant consequences.
On October 14, 2023 the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024. This vibrational energy is particularly oriented towards involvement in creative groups. There is a desire to explore without an agenda and see what wonders you can find. This involves a passion for learning and applying what you have learned. There is a desire to expand emotionally at a pace you can handle effectively. There is also a need to go out and act and express yourself, make your life happen. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “A Child giving Birds a Drink at a Fountain”. This is about drawing from the fountain of spiritual nourishment, replenishing yourself and generously sharing with those around you who are not able to obtain it for themselves.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory Period for Saturn, Neptune, Pluto: Reworking of Mercury: Resolution of 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 “!!!”}
