The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Venus stationed turning retrograde on July 23
Today, Monday (07/24/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Mars joining with Neptune (0*). The strongest vibrational energy today is seeking out new patterns and life views wanting to explore new ways of understanding life. There is a reaching out, a sense of restlessness where you are seeking to follow your dreams. This is a time to be joining with others to help the other person involved experience a fuller more joyful life. There is a strong sense of community involvement here and the potential for you to receive assistance or have the opportunity to provide assistance to another. It takes all of us to build a healthy community. (For VA Students: 29)

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Mars, Neptune >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through:
You are developing a passionate sensitiveness to everything in yourself and in the world, learning how and when patterns start and how best to stop them when they start spiraling out of control. You are looking at things in a uniquely different light, using your creativity to discover new and different possibilities for the future. You are experiencing a sense of fullness, completion and wholeness as you tune into the fertile potency within you that enables you to manifest anything you truly desire.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are experiencing the arrogant pride and presumptuousness of an overinflated ego that is seeking to spread out like a disease, destroying those opposed to it. You are being caught in patterns of unrealistic thoughts, making plans for the future that do not work, losing touch with the real world. You are being caught up in pride and possessiveness, jealously trying to protect all that is yours and failing.
2 Leo = Sun [An epidemic of mumps] You are developing a passionate sensitiveness to everything in yourself and in the world, learning how and when patterns start and how best to stop them when they start spiraling out of control and/or you are experiencing the arrogant pride and presumptuousness of an overinflated ego that is seeking to spread out like a disease, destroying those opposed to it
9 Virgo = Mars [A man making a futurist drawing] You are looking at things in a uniquely different light, using your creativity to discover new and different possibilities for the future and/or you are being caught in patterns of unrealistic thoughts, making plans for the future that do not work, losing touch with the real world
28 Pisces = Neptune [A fertile garden under the full moon] You are experiencing a sense of fullness, completion and wholeness as you tune into the fertile potency within you that enables you to manifest anything you truly desire and/or you are being caught up in pride and possessiveness, jealously trying to protect all that is yours and failing
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}
Jul 23 – Jul 24 (exact Jul 23) Mercury in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 10 AM. This vibration is about thinking and acting quickly. This energy is very good at handling emergencies or doing anything else that requires quick decisions and actions in the moment.
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.}
There are no two planet patterns involving the Moon today.
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 17 the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on August 16. This vibrational pattern is emotionally intense and visionary. There are likely to be a lot of passions stirred up. There is also a potential for sudden moves that can bring harmony in unexpected ways. In situations with uncertain outcomes, you need to research as much as you can and then take the risks to follow your intuitions. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “ A Dark Shadow or Mantle thrown suddenly over the Right Shoulder”. This is about opening to a connection that overshadows you, a greater authority that is calling on you to transcend ego and logical rationalization, open to spiritual power and learn to assume responsibility for using the power that has been given to you wisely and with humility. There is the temptation here to claim this power as your own rather than something you are connecting into, in which case you are in danger of abusing your power from a sense of personal superiority.
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 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: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY; Venus stationed turning retrograde on July 23 >> Introductory phase of Jupiter, Uranus: Turning Backward of Venus, 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 “!”}
