The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Monday (5/6/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Saturn and Pluto (1*). This vibrational energy pattern involves a focus inside of yourself on how you could express yourself in your life in the way that is the most true to who you really are. This can involve time spent feeling out what is inside of you and envisioning the life you would most like to live, the life that would be the most fulfilling to you. You may get a sense that you have that life well developed and when you do and the time feels right, you may move into this new life that you have been planning for so long. There is a lot of analysis of who you really are and an aim to get in touch with the deepest most fundamental expression of yourself. (For VA Students: 32)
The Effective Response to today’s energies is to work within the networks and groups that you are connected into operating on a very deep profound level within your groups of connections opening up to merging with those that you are interacting with.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Saturn, Pluto >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are feeling a strong sense of yourself as a person who is willing to stand up for yourself and fight for what you know and believe in no matter what the opposition. You are experiencing a greater reality that encompasses everything, passionately sharing this inspiring vision with others. You are discovering that the organized structures for dealing with life are too narrow and inadequate, finding that you must operate based on the awareness and sense of connection within you, refusing to be subject to outside authorities, recognizing and accepting the consequences of your actions.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are failing to effectively defend your point of view and having to deal with the consequences. You are manipulating and exploiting those around you claiming that you have all the answers and that you should be deferred to. You are rebelliously rejecting social structures and their expectations out of immaturity while ignoring the consequences of your actions, causing damage to yourself and all those around 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}
May 5 – May 8 (exact May 7) the Sun in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with Saturn in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:42 AM on May 7 then decreasing fading out around 5 AM on May 8. This vibrational energy pattern is very aware of your responsibility to have a constructive influence on the world around you. There is a sense of the exact ways to operate that will enable you to accomplish your goals and have everyone be happy with what you accomplished.
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 11:57 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:57 AM early May 6, the Moon in Aries is joining with Mercury in Aries. The emotions and moods and mental patterns are working together. This is a time when you are very effective in doing projects.
At 5:42 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 7:08 PM, peaking at 9:08 PM, the Moon in Taurus is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Aquarius. 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 ancient feelings on the people you are currently interacting with.
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 1, the Third Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Aquarius and the Sun in Taurus. This pattern will be influencing us until the New Moon on May 7, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern involves a need for community and a recognition of whether you are comfortable and supported in the community(s) that you are in. This pattern brings the need to see if you can find a community that does work for you. There is an emphasis here on a community with a literary focus and a sense of reaching for what is fundamental, especially focusing on the values that last past death. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Window-Shoppers” which is opening to a growing awareness of all the opportunities and possibilities available to you. There is a warning here to not have your feelings of worth tied to whether you get what you desire. The Symbol for the Moon is “People on Stairs graduated upwards”. Here you are perceiving the many possible levels of awareness that human beings can experience and recognizing your place within that pattern. This involves appreciation of what you have learned and the awareness that you still have a lot to learn.
On April 23, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus. This pattern will be influencing us until the New Moon on May 7, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern involves tapping into deep buried patterns and taking actions that will enable you to release these patterns and build new patterns in their place. This release and transformation occurs as you are playing around with what you are finding inside you, exploring it with no particular agenda. There is spontaneous action that you take impulsively in the moment and this attunement helps to trigger a release and transformation of these energies. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Widow at an Open Grave” which is about recognizing that there is a greater life that transcends our experiences here in time and space and we are connected with our loved ones when they pass into that realm. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Massive, Rocky Shore” which relates to old established patterns that resist all attempts to change them. These deeply buried patterns may be able to be addressed with love and compassion. This is about facing the things inside you that you have been inclined to hold onto even though they are causing you pain and personal harm. This is about letting go.
On April 8, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 2, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings us into connection with each other. We understand more and more how the life experiences of others impact our own life experiences. There is a call to support others where they need support as we also respect the importance of each person fashioning their own life pattern. There is a challenge here to learn to work together harmoniously while still respecting each person’s individual experiences and understandings. The Sabian Symbol for the Solar Eclipse is “A Young Girl feeding Birds in Winter”. Here we are making a tentative connection into and expressing the nurturing love that is the core of this realm of manifestation. This love is always there in the depths, if we will allow ourselves to connect into it, no matter what our situation. There is a warning here about trying to manipulate others by controlling what they need that they do not have access to on their own.
On March 25, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on September 17, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is especially focused on taking actions in ways that are compatible with the other people involved in and impacted by the actions. There is the potential here for sudden unexpected events to occur and for the results of one’s actions to have unexpected consequences. There is also an emphasis here of being able to get down to the true core patterns involved and to be able to see the real motives behind people’s actions. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Square brightly lighted on one side”. This symbol is about identifying your destination point and sensing the path you need to take to reach it. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Ideals of a man abundantly crystallized”. This encourages you to work internally to solidify your ideals, forming a solid foundation from which you can relate to others effectively.
On March 19, the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Aries. This pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is connecting into our deep emotional levels making us aware of these deep levels and bringing the potential for a reworking, a rebirth of these deep levels based on insight into what is actually going on within us. This insight may come as a result of seeking to act out of these deep levels and getting feedback from the world around us. There is the potential for a reality check on the foundations of our systems during this three month period. The Sabian Symbol for the relationship of Sun to Moon is “A Man formally dressed and a Deer with its Horns folded. This symbol recognized our more primitive aggressive instincts and shows that we use formal, polite relationship patterns to guide our interactions with other. This will enable us to gain control of our more primitive aggressive instincts. Displaying power, dominance and intimidation in this time period is going against the current energy flow and will tend to undermine the accomplishment of your goals.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory Period for Saturn: Turning Back of Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Mercury, Uranus, {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 “!!!”}
