The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Monday (5/17/2021), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Mars joining with Pluto (1*). This vibration is has a very smooth flowing creative energy to it that can either be expressed individually or in a group. There is potential for excellent shared work to be done under this pattern. There is also a lot of energy and intense desire to get out there and be doing something. This gives the potential for bringing some of your dreams into concrete expression in a big way. It is important to remember that there is support out there for you if you will just be open and reach out to embrace it. This can involve projects that you share with others. This is an especially good energy in which to sit down with others and brainstorm together how to solve the problems you face. You are more likely to come up with a solution if in work with others.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are paying the price required to open up to and receive a sense of your own defined individuality. You are joining with a group of comrades, enjoying your share of the abundance that life has offered you as a result of your competence. 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 most dysfunctional expression of this message: You are devaluing or overvaluing yourself based on external conditions. You are overindulging and consuming more than your share of resources, becoming bloated and overweight while others are in need. 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}
May 16 – May 18 (exact May 17) the Sun in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 5:48 AM then decreasing fading out around 6 AM on May 18. This vibration may help connect you in with your mission in life. There is a sense of needing to be intensely involved in life. You may find yourself concentrating intensely on something of importance to you today.
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 12:05 AM, peaking at 2:05 AM, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with the Sun in Taurus. This 4 hr period is balanced emotionally and is a good time for whatever activities you need to be doing.
Starting at 12:22 AM, peaking at 2:22 AM, the Moon in Cancer is opposing Pluto in Capricorn. This 4 hr period digs down deep inside and touched on old patterns which if triggered may result in over-reactions in your current experiences.
At 8:44 AM the Moon enters Leo and for 2 ½ days it brings a feeling of wanting to express yourself as a unique individual in a broad sweeping dramatic fashion. You will also enjoy the unique individual expressions of others around you.
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 May 11 the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon joining together in Taurus. This vibration will be influencing us until the next New Moon on June 10. This vibration ties into Neptune which means we are seeking to develop our dreams this lunation cycle as well as to bring our ideals into operation in our world around us. There is a sense of deep internal work here that you then take action on. You may experience feelings of restlessness and dissatisfaction this cycle that have you working to develop new ways of operating in your lives and in society. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “White Dove over Troubled Waters” which relates to learning how to separate yourself from your emotional patterns, knowing that they are a part of you, but you do not have to act them out. When you see the bigger picture, you may be able to transcend some of your personal distress.
On March 20, the Sun entered Aries. This is the Spring Equinox, the start of Spring. This vibration will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2021. The Spring vibration is extremely creative. There is unusual ability this spring to focus and work on creative projects. You are capable of making your own analysis of what is really important and what most needs to be done. At the same time there is a strong inclination to integrate this with your dreams and to take actions that will make your dreams more real. A Sabian Symbol that relates to this spring is “A Fellowship Supper” which relates to breaking through your feelings of alienation opening yourself up to healing your lines of connection to others. It is important to work past your fears and face whatever issues are relevant so that you can reconnect both with yourself and with the world around you.
This current Eclipse season ended on December 14, 2020 and the next eclipse season will begin on May 26, 2021. The current eclipse season will be influencing us until the next one begins. The current eclipse cycle involved a push for action based on feelings of dissatisfaction. This is combined with an awareness of the importance of being true to ourselves and that our true self is tuned into a greater reality of which we are a part, something greater than ourselves that we participate in. This is a call to open up to that greater reality, become one with it and be transformed by this experience.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury
Introductory contact for Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune: Turning Backward 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 “!”}
