The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Monday (07/10/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Moon and Mercury joining with Pluto (1*). This vibrational pattern is once again probing and planning seeking to find a life expression that truly reflects what is deep within us. There is a lot of reflection and a willingness to do whatever it takes to express the deep soul urges within. This involves sensing the emotional distress within and tuning into the historical patterns that created those emotional issues. This is a time when you can release some ancient patterns that have been creating emotional blocks within you. It is a matter of opening the door and letting the deeply buried energies within flow out of you then asking for healing for the rawness within. (For VA Students: 32)

32 (8*) Action plans formulated within yourself and then acted upon at the right moment.
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 recognizing that you operate within a bounded, limited sphere of activity, inter-linked with a particular group of people, within a greater realm. You are accepting that you have a heritage that is fraught with problems and issues that have been seeking to control and limit you and you are seeking to free yourself from these forces and to learn how to operate genuinely and freely, in a full expression to who you truly are. You are reaching a level of expertise where you operate from true authority and are participating in and managing the world’s hidden realities.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are defining your immediate sphere (the duck pond) as all that is important and becoming provincially focused on the needs of your small group. You are holding onto your traditional position in society seeking to continue in the patterns you have being unwilling to reexamine your current patterns and accept on the problems and issues you need to work on holding onto your holding onto the traditional values with which you have been raised; glorifying the past as a way of maintaining your traditional superiority over others. You are failing to claim your true authority as you block yourself off from awareness of the deeper realities around you and within you.

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}
At 7:40 AM Mars enters Virgo and is there for 48 days bringing the sense of an elusive perfection that you would like to express here on earth. This can result in a desire to fix things that are not working the way they “should”.
Jul 10 – Jul 11 (exact Jul 10) Mercury in Cancer is opposing Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 11 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 4:47 PM then decreasing fading out around 5 AM on July 11. This vibration is about intense mental patterns that you are tending to focus on and perhaps obsess about. This is a time when you can really concentrate on a project and get a lot done.
Jul 9 – Jul 10 (exact Jul 9) Mercury in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 8 AM. This vibration brings a fascination with ideas that are new and different and that transport you out of the everyday world. This is a time to let your imagination loose, explore the boundaries and move beyond 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 10:34 AM, peaking at 12:34 PM, the Moon in Aries is flowing freely (trine) with Venus in Leo. This 4 hr period brings a very nice flow of love and good feelings. This can be a special time to share with those you care about.
Starting at 4:49 PM, peaking at 6:49 PM, the Moon in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Capricorn. In this 4 hr period you may feel a need to act based on deep feelings within you that may come to the surface at this time. Ask yourself whether you are responding to the past or the present. Try to not put past feeling on the people you are currently interacting with.
Starting at 5:11 PM, peaking at 7:11 PM, the Moon in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Mercury in Cancer. This 4 hr period involves your emotions and moods stimulating your mind and results in you needing to balance your mind and emotions in order to act in clear constructive ways. It is important for you to pay attention to your feelings and your thoughts on whatever is happening now and remember to think before you act.
At 7:55 PM the Moon enters Taurus and for the next 2 ½ days you feel more like you are working with the world around you with everything evolving in its own way. There is a lot more patience here and a sense of life unfolding as it should with a sense that you and everything around you change in the ways that are natural and proper.
Starting at 6:31 PM, peaking at 8:31 PM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Virgo. This 4 hr period is probably going to have your emotions and moods whooped up a bit, you will tend to focus on something you want to do and really get on with it. You may get upset if someone interferes at this time, you won’t want to be interrupted or blocked.
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 July 9, the Third Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Aries and the Sun in Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on July 17. This vibrational pattern is feeling a call to explore and interact with others in an upbeat creative process. There is an attraction to beauty that is seeking to be expressed through hands on direct creative processes that allow you to move into a communion with life that transcends the ordinary everyday reality. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Hen scratching for her Chicks” which involves opening up to the Mother Spirit as you are recognizing that you need a greater awareness and strength. You have to penetrate through the barriers you are encountering that block you from getting the spiritual nourishment you need. The Symbol for the Moon is “An Empty Hammock”. This is about becoming aware of a feeling of emptiness within you, realizing that this place contains great potential, and opening up to connecting into yourself on a deeper level.
On July 3 the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Capricorn and the Sun in Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on July 17. This vibrational pattern is about areas where you don’t know what actions to take to bring a favorable outcome. You need to thoroughly analyze the situation then use your intuition to pick the best outcome. There will likely be situations where you need to respond in the moment. It is especially urgent that you really be in the moment perceiving what is really happening in the moment in order to avoid accidents. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Chinese Woman nursing a Baby with a Message”. This is about opening up to the flow of nourishment coming into you from an unexpected source, finding that this nourishment is feeding the true essence of yourself and connecting you into who your really are. The Moon Symbol is “A Student of Nature lecturing” which is about studying the natural harmonies of all of life and seeing how all life is integrated together. This is about you opening up to these natural patterns and helping others to do the same.
On June 21, the Summer Solstice occurred as the Sun entered Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 21. This is the longest day of the year and the shortest night. This vibrational pattern is dominated by the Sun Quincunx Pluto which shows that this is a time when each person must face and claim their own power and stand tall in it. There is an emphasis on working in support of your community this summer in very creative ways along with the potential for expansion through sudden insights and personal breakthroughs. The Sabian symbol for the Sun-Moon relationship is “A Christmas Tree decorated” which is like bringing the Winter Solstice into operation in the middle of Summer. This is about the light being reborn in the darkness within each of us.
On June 18, the New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Gemini. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on July 17. This vibrational energy pattern brings a focus on our communities. How are our communities operating? How well are they meeting the needs of the people within the communities? What can we do to improve the ways our communities function? This is combined with a restless sense of dissatisfaction with the status quo and a desire to change it. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Gypsy coming out of the Forest” which is about moving beyond your previously restricted viewpoint and becoming aware of a larger reality.
On May 5, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio opposing the Sun in Taurus. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational pattern is expansive and seeking to understand the different ways people can understand the world. This is often done by participating in a culture that is different from your culture of origin. There is a strong need for the freedom to express yourself and to act on your feelings. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bridge being built across a Gorge” which helps you connect to the next more expansive level of awareness beyond where you currently are operating. The Moon Symbol is “A Gold Rush”. This helps you find and identify the rigid patterns within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. You can break up these rigid structures and open up to a deeper truer understanding of yourself.
On April 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and the Moon in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 14. This eclipse in Aries emphasizes your connection within yourself and encourages you to find a way to do what you feel called to do deep within you. There is a focus on interacting with the world and exploring whatever you are drawn to. This process can be very creative. And with this vibration it leads to taking actions based on your discoveries. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A Duck Pond and its Brood”. This is about recognizing that you are operating within a bounded, limited sphere of activity where you are inter-linked with a particular group of people. It is important to realize that you are interconnected with people in a larger realm and to realize that you need to take into account this larger realm rather than just focusing on the needs of your group.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Venus >> Introductory phase of Venus, Jupiter, Uranus: Turning Backward of Neptune: Reworking of Saturn, 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 “!”}
