The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Monday (12/23/19), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Mars joining with Saturn (0*). This vibration continues the theme of creativity we have been experiencing the last few days. This is a time when you can come up with solutions to your projects and problems that you might never have thought of at some other time. There is great potential here for learning new things and expanding your understanding of the world and yourself, provided you are willing to do the personal work involved in facing yourself and the plain old hard work needed to change things in your environment. It is up to you, this is a time when it may be a little easier than usual to discover what is really special in your life.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
{These are modes of operation that are especially available for you to tap into today}
25 (1*) Extreme Focused Evolutionary Non-linear Creativity
17 (1*) Empathic participation in the experiences of others experiencing their stories.
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}
Dec 23 – Dec 25 (exact Dec 24) the Sun in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe begins to influence us around 6 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 4:40 PM on December 24 then decreasing fading out around 4 PM on December 25. This vibration has the potential to be delightful. If you want spontaneity and doing things on the spur of the moment, this vibe will encourage you. Take care to take a moment to look before you leap so that this time will be blessed with joy and not laced with pain.
Dec 21 – Dec 23 (exact Dec 22) Venus in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 4 AM. This vibration brings a strong need to act impulsively in the moment seeking to relate to that which you are attracted to, that which is beautiful for you. This can be a person you are attracted to or something else that is beautiful to you that you feel a need to relate to.
Dec 20 – Dec 23 (exact Dec 22) Mars in Scorpio is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 11 PM. This vibration brings a great deal of energy that is prone to be extreme. Constructive use of this energy involves physical activity, sports, walking, physical work of various kinds. This is definitely an energy that if you don’t direct it, it can turn destructive. Fortunately it is capable of being directed, it just takes being aware and working at it.
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 8:27 PM yesterday, peaking at 10:27 PM yesterday, the Moon in Scorpio is joining with Mars in Scorpio. This 4 hr period is about activity, the need to take action and actually accomplish something. Pick some project that you have been working on and move it to the next level. This is an especially good time to do any kind of physical activity. It helps direct this energy in a constructive way.
At 11:34 AM, the Moon enters Sagittarius. The Moon in Sagittarius brings exuberant feelings and a desire to explore your external world and your internal world. This 2 ½ days is a great time to explore someplace you have never been or to learn something new that you have been wondering about.
Starting at 5:37 PM, peaking at 7:37 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Venus in Aquarius. This 4 hr period is full of gentle loving energies. This is a great time to appreciate those that you love and be sure to tell them so. Sharing with friends and loved ones is just what the doctor ordered right now.
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 Winter Solstice was on December 21 at 11:19 pm 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 Third Quarter Moon was December 18-9 with the Sun in Sagittarius and the Moon in Virgo. This will influence us until the next New Moon on December 26. There is a strong need here to do the work that has to be done for the greater long term goal. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A sculptor” which refers to cutting away all extraneous material to reveal the true patterned buried deep within and being flexible enough to accept the truth when you tune into it. The Moon Symbol is “Grande dames at tea”. This is a recognition that the pattern of life is unfolding within and around you and it is your responsibility to pass this awareness on to others.
The Full Moon is on December 12 with the Moon is in Gemini opposing the Sun in Sagittarius. This will influence us until the next New Moon on December 26. There is an especially strong focus on doing things in your own way without regard to what other people expect or how others thing things should be done. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Men cutting through ice”. This is about cutting through the frozen patterns within the self, releasing underlying emotions and feelings before they cause you serious problems. The Moon Symbol is “A cafeteria” which indicates that you have many choices for how you nourish yourself. There is a warning about becoming overwhelmed by the things coming at you especially if you are caught up in frozen patterns finding it difficult to be flexible.
The New Moon was on November 26 with the Moon in Sagittarius joining with the Sun in Sagittarius. This vibration will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 26. The New Moon is involved in deep analysis of patterns seeking to figure out what works best and to join together to express the resulting pattern. There is a recognition that individual expression must be tempered with responsibility for the effect your behaviors have on others. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “An old owl up in a tree” which helps us to see the big picture being able to penetrate beyond the darkness around us helping us to tap into a wisdom beyond us. This is not a good time to close down and refuse to listen to any input from others.
This Eclipse Cycle began on July 2 and lasts until December 26. This period is about evaluation and consideration of the meaning of your life and your actions and how you want the rest of your life to go. There is a calling for you to open up to a greater awareness and learn to assume responsibility for using that awareness wisely with humility while operating fairly and being real and genuine. This is done by stepping back and getting the objectivity that will enable you to move more effectively towards your dreams recognizing that sometimes the reactions of others to you come from their problems and issues rather than from your actions. This is about acting from your true self rather than using a façade to cover up who you really are.
The Retrograde Diary:
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.}
