The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
At 12:46 AM on February 1 The New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Aquarius.
Yesterday and today, Monday (1/31/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Moon and Mercury joining with Pluto (1*). This Vibrational Pattern is about an intense sense of how the past affects the present. There is an innate sense of psychological and emotional understanding in this vibration and it is spread over a wide range of areas. There is the potential here for a greater understanding of your own needs and motivations with the resulting ability to accomplish something you have been wanting to accomplish for a long time. This is combined with creative potential either by yourself or working with others. Concern for your impact on your community is also operating here. And finally there may be feelings of restlessness and a need to search and find something better than what you currently have. Your own inclinations will guide how you focus this energy. (For VA Students: Vibe(s): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
17 (1*) Interest in other’s stories that inclines to many possible outcomes, such as involvement in theater, literature, counseling or personal performance.
1 (1*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Moon, Mercury, Pluto
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are experiencing an exceptional level of sensitiveness to subtle energies as you spontaneously open to delight and wonder, allowing you to make better contact with both the spiritual and elemental realms. You are climbing to the heights of the mountains, seeking to make the connections needed to bring spiritual awareness into yourself and the world. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are being so lighthearted and irresponsible that you don’t take anything seriously or being so bogged down in work that you don’t get any form of release. You are seeking to reach the top of the heap in order to show that you’re better than others so you can look down on them from your exalted position.

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}
Jan 29 – Jan 31 (exact Jan 30) the Sun in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 2 PM. This vibration has a strong need for freedom to be able to do what you feel moved to do in the moment without regard for the expectations of others or the consequences of your action. This is about both how you connect in with others in networks and how you can express yourself in a natural spontaneous evolving way. The challenge of combining these together can bring you a deeper understanding of what freedom really is.
Jan 23 – Feb 4 (Closest Jan 28) Venus in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe does not become exact because Venus changes directions. This is about sudden feelings of attraction to beauty and the desire to pursue them. These attractions can be very powerful. Be aware that as Venus leaves the influence of Uranus these attractions will stop being compelling and may be regretted or not make sense to you. The feelings can be amazing, but take care to not make any commitments until after Venus and Uranus have separated and you find out if this has long term potential.
The Moods of the Moon.
{Remember that the quicker Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a short window of time around 4 hours, 2 hours each side of the exact position.}
Starting at 9:44 PM yesterday, peaking at 11:44 PM yesterday, the Moon in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. This 4 hr period is likely to bring some deep intense emotional feelings with perhaps an awareness of older patterns that are influencing your reactions right now.
At 4:44 AM the Moon enters Aquarius and becomes focused for the next 2 ½ days on participating in group processes. We are all a part of many groups including our family, our friends, our community, our country and our world. The Moon in Aquarius finds satisfaction in being a part of its groups and contributing to the functioning and well being of those groups.
Starting at 8:25 PM, peaking at 10:25 PM, the Moon in Aquarius 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 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.”
At 12:46 AM early February 1, the Moon in Aquarius is joining with the Sun in Aquarius. This is the New Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary
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 12:46 AM on February 1 The New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Aquarius. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on March 2. This vibrational pattern points to two conflicting influences, the need to be responsible and do what will last through the ages and the need to do what you feel like in the moment. There is also an awareness here of the importance of directly participating in life in a real nitty gritty way. There is more going on that people can see and this calls for tuning into the mystery and then acting based on your analysis and intuition seeking to understand that which is foreign to you. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Barometer” which is about tuning into the flucturations in the people and environment around you, recognizing the patterns that are in the process of forming and thus being able to predict and guide unfolding events. There is a potential for getting so caught up in the unfolding currents that you become blind to the patterns that are present.
On December 21, the Winter Solstice occurred with the Sun entering Capricorn and the Moon in Cancer. This Vibrational Pattern is about the importance and the beauty of old patterns and a very strong attraction to this. This is combined with a sense of the importance of the unique way each person can make contributions to life by connecting in with and expressing the unique essence within them. There is encouragement here to spend time inside yourself connecting into who you are in your core and to work on how that fits into the world around you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun to Moon interaction is “Two Angels bringing Protection”. This encourages you to open up to the protection of the divine that is being offered to both your conscious and unconscious selves. Be open to people appearing to help just when you need them.
On December 4, a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Sagittarius. This is the final event of this eclipse season. It will be influencing us at least until the start of the next Eclipse Season on April 30, 2022. There is a special emphasis in this Eclipse on evaluating the patterns we are living by. It is especially important to consider the strengths and weaknesses of the ways that we have been understanding the world. There is a restlessness and a need to move out and find a different world that will work more effectively and be more satisfactory. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “A Widow’s Past brought to Light”. This is about facing your past actions, the destructiveness, and blindness that you have been involved in and taking responsibility for them. The emphasis is on working on the distorted patterns within you, making amends, and forgiving yourself and others so that you can make a new beginning.
On November 19, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Taurus opposing the Sun in Scorpio. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 30, 2022. This Vibrational Pattern involves the Sun and Moon especially strongly interacting with Mercury. This shows that emotional patterns and history will be very important during this next 5 months. There is a focus on creating programs, concepts that are acceptable to everybody involved. There is also an awareness of the needs of people and how they are or are not being met. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “The King of the Fairies approaching his Domain” which points to the importance of understanding your true essence, the domain within the core of your being where you’re truly and confidently in command of yourself. If you are not in touch with the core of your being you may try to use control to prove your superiority. The Moon Symbol is “A Woman pursued by Mature Romance”. This is about participating in a mature type of love that involves a greater awareness of your interconnectivity to others. There is a warning to not closing down to love because you are being guided by social expectations of what love means and what types of love are permissible.
The Retrograde Diary: CHANGES TODAY: Mercury
Turning Forward of Mercury, Venus, Uranus: Resolution of 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. Points of especially concentrated energy are marked with “!”}
