The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry

For the last 8 days and today, Monday (2/19/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Venus and Mars joining with Pluto (2*). The strongest vibrational energy pattern today involves tuning into yourself and interacting with the world around you. This is about opening up to your internal sense of your life and what your personal awareness is and how to express it. There is a sense inside of you of who you are that you can connect with. This can bring a natural flow that you can use to make changes you desire. it will help to guide your decisions and your actions. We are talking about a need to get really directly involved in yourself and your interactions with the world. Learn what you can do and what you need to do. (For VA Students: 1, 2, 3, 4)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
7 (2*) Quiet, introverted, meditative, observant, forming own internal reality.
14 (2*) Quiet, Inner Focus, Abstract thinking shared with others

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets:, Venus, Mars, Pluto >>>

The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through:
You are studying the remaining shells of ancient spiritual groups, making a deeper connection to the stability underlying reality as you open up to varying perspectives on the truth. You are resonating with the true values that underlie the manifest plane, seeing the way that those values shape everyday reality.

The more dysfunctional expression of this message: 
You are dogmatically pushing your beliefs on others, believing that you know the one and only true way, seeking to force other people to follow your beliefs. You are being caught up in an empty, emotionless facade that lacks depth and integrity.

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}

Feb 19 – Feb 24 (exact Feb 22) Venus in Aquarius is joining with Mars in Aquarius. This vibe begins to influence us around 11 PM on Feb. 19 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 2:14 AM on Feb. 22 then decreasing fading out around 6 AM on Feb. 24.This vibrational energy pattern brings very hands-on direct involvement in whatever you are engaged in. You are most likely to be focused on networking with others.

Jan 24 – Feb 19 (not exact, closest Feb 6) Jupiter in Taurus and Saturn in Pisces. Jupiter moves back into a wide sextile with Saturn at the end of its retrograde period, between Jan 24, 2024 and Feb 19, 2024 but this aspect never becomes exact. This vibrational pattern gives some potential for balanced growth, but since the aspect never becomes exact it is a potential people can choose to use if they wish.

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 8:20 PM, peaking at 10:20 PM, the Moon in Gemini is flowing freely (trine) with the Sun in Aquarius. 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 1:02 PM, peaking at 3:02 PM, the Moon in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This 4 hr period stimulates an internal awareness of the patterns that are working for your long term benefit and those that are undermining your goals. It is easier to shift at this time to a more effective pattern that supports your goals.

Starting at 3:00 PM, peaking at 5:00 PM, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings a sense of emotional expansion and optimism and a desire to reach out and interact with others socially

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 February 16, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Aquarius. This pattern will be influencing us until the Full Moon on February 24, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is involved in testing the motives and drives that it is basing its actions on. What is really effective and what do I want to accomplish? Then are my current drives, motives and strategies enabling me to accomplish the things that are really important to me. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Tree Felled and Sawed”. This is about releasing old ego patterns and seeking to be of service to the needs of others rather than focusing on your personal needs. With this pattern holding onto your individualized orientation will likely leave you feeling that you are being pulled in many different directions, feeling resentful, and separating yourself from any sense of being part of an integrated wholeness. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Woman pursued by Mature Romance”. This is about opening up to a greater awareness of your internal beauty and your interconnections with others, moving beyond social expectations to embrace a greater more encompassing love.

On February 9, the New Moon occurs with the Moon and Sun in Aquarius. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on March 10, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern involves connecting our ideas together. There is a focus on our communities and how effectively our communities are at being sensitive to the needs of those in the community. Are the people in the community being enabled and supported? Or are they falling through the cracks in the system? What is the responsibility of the community to be there in difficult situations? The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Woman Disappointed and Disillusioned. This is about whether you are being true to yourself or tending to get lost in responding to the needs of others. This New Moon calls for us to take care of ourselves so we can better take care of others. You are called to refocus on the true expression of yourself and your potentials and not get lost in grief, guilt, disappointment and disillusionment. It is time to let go of the past.

On December 21 the Winter Solstice occurred as the Sun entered Capricorn. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Spring Equinox on March 19, 2024.This is the shortest day of the year. After the Winter Solstice the days start getting longer and by the Spring Equinox the temperature starts to catch up with the lengthening days. The Solstice brings a flow of unfolding energy that contains the potential for a rebirth in our understanding of both the past and the present. There is a sense of being called to walk in harmony with the people and the world around us as we tune into what is really fundamental and foundational. The Vibration between the Sun and the Moon gives us the Sabian Symbol of “A Case of Apoplexy”. Apoplexy is an old name for something like a stroke where you are temporarily unconscious from an overload in your system. This speaks to very contradictory feelings wanting to express but feeling anxious and fearing disapproval. This is about facing that which is within you that may be inhibiting your ability to truly express what you are. You are meant to shine as a reflection of the one light connecting into something beyond yourself.

On October 28 the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Scorpio. This vibrational energy pattern will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on Mar 25, 2024. This vibrational energy brings a deep desire to expand your emotional connections and to learn new and different things. There is an underlying whisper of dreams of beauty and exotic experiences. There may be some tendency to project your dreams into the world and not know what is real and what is not. There is a strong need to participate in a new and different worldview that will at least give the hope of involvement in a creative community. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Gold Rush” which can represent you going out into the rugged dangerous depths of yourself and seeking to break up the rigid structures within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. The Moon Symbols is “A Bridge being built across a Gorge”. Here is the opportunity to build a bridge that will cross the abyss and connect you to the next level of awareness. This is not something we can do by ourselves, but if you ask for help from spirit, you will receive it.

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: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory Period for Pluto: Turning Forward of Uranus: Resolution of Jupiter, Neptune, {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 “!!!”}
