The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
For the last two days and today, Monday (11/17/2025), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun joining with Jupiter and Saturn (9*). This Vibrational Energy Pattern is about you working to establish a flow in your interactions. You will be specially attracted to people that you have things in common with. You may find a community of people that just feels right to you and as you seek to take action to reach your goals you will temper that action with an awareness of how others feel. There is a strong need to grow and expand, but an awareness of the importance of moving forward step by step in a sensible way. For VA Students (3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30)
For three days now this vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by curiously exploring that which you are attracted to in a natural way where your learning comes as you are ready to accept it.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
3 (2*) You are seeking to create a flow of energy within and around you.
6 (2*) Need for compatible interactions with others
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Jupiter, Saturn >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are establishing a base of operations within a new realm, learning the rules for functioning there with respect for the rights of all concerned. You are relaxing in a safe space with others where you can truly be yourself and explore the new awarenesses and connections within yourself, gaining insight from the books and people you are sharing with. You are beginning to operate effectively in both the spiritual and the earthly realms based on a new vision and finding your unique way to respond to that vision.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are barging into other people’s space, invading their territory and failing to respect their space which makes a mess and may result in others treating your space with this same type of disrespect. You are being unable to share yourself authentically and feeling left out and isolated because of feeling repressed and inhibited by the expectations within and around you. You are feeling alone and isolated, fearing disconnection from others if you’re true to yourself, failing to see the underlying reality in which everyone is connected.
26 Scorpio = Sun [Indians making camp] You are establishing a base of operations within a new realm, learning the rules for functioning there with respect for the rights of all concerned and/or you are barging into other people’s space, invading their territory and failing to respect their space which makes a mess and may result in others treating your space with this same type of disrespect
26 Cancer = Jupiter [Contentment and happiness in luxury, people reading on davenports] You are relaxing in a safe space with others where you can truly be yourself and explore the new awarenesses and connections within yourself, gaining insight from the books and people you are sharing with and/or you are being unable to share yourself authentically and feeling left out and isolated because of feeling repressed and inhibited by the expectations within and around you
26 Pisces = Saturn [A new moon that divides its influences] You are beginning to operate effectively in both the spiritual and the earthly realms based on a new vision and finding your unique way to respond to that vision and/or you are feeling alone and isolated, fearing disconnection from others if you’re true to yourself, failing to see the underlying reality in which everyone is connected
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 o fthe aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}.
Nov 16 – Nov 18 (exact Nov 17) Mercury in Sagittarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 3:36 PM on Nov 17 then it is decreasing fading out around 10 AM on Nov 18. This vibrational energy pattern brings ideas that you are extremely focused on, probably working to develop a deeper understanding of these ideas that you just can’t get out of your head.
Nov 16 – Nov 18 (exact Nov 17) the Sun in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 3:56 AM on Nov 17 then it is decreasing fading out around 3 AM on Nov 18. This vibrational energy pattern brings a need to create an environment where there is a flow of responsibility where you are responding in the ways that are essential and important.
Nov 16 – Nov 17 (exact Nov 17) the Sun in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Cancer. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:07 AM on Nov 17 then it is decreasing fading out around 11 PM on Nov 17. This vibrational energy pattern brings a need to create an environment where there is a flow of growth and expansion.
Oct 29 – Dec 5 (not exact) Jupiter in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This energy is increasing in influence but not becoming exact until Nov 10 then it is decreasing fading out around 10 AM on Dec 5. This vibrational energy pattern brings expansion in a step-by-step way that deals with moving from one fundamental step to the next.
Aug 2 – Dec 17 (exact Aug 28 and then Nov 20) Uranus in Gemini is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Aries. This energy is decreasing fading out around 7 PM on Dec 17. This vibrational energy pattern brings a high level of sensitivity to the energy flows around you even if you can’t really describe what you are feeling. This sensitivity can result in sometimes unexplainable reactions to things that happen around you.
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 4:51 AM, peaking at 6:51 AM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Jupiter in Cancer. In this 4 hr period your emotions will tend to expand. If you are feeling good, this can be great. If you are not feeling good, then this can be difficult. See if you can direct your feelings and thoughts to things that are pleasant and positive and you will be rewarded with some really good feelings.
At 4:44 PM the Moon enters Scorpio For the next 2 ½ days the Moon in Scorpio can tend to get very emotionally intense. The desire is to merge with the people you are involved with and with the projects you are working on. This can be uncomfortable for those not used to it as you can feel like you are being swallowed up. If it gets too much, just step back for a couple of minutes and take a breath, or even take a walk around the block to help you temporarily disconnect.
Starting at 6:05 PM, peaking at 8:05 PM, the Moon in Scorpio 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 Wednesday November 12, the Third Quarter Moon Phase was reached with the Moon in Leo and the Sun in Scorpio. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the New Moon on November 20, 2025. This Vibrational Energy Pattern is about interaction with and exploration of what you are attracted to getting to the foundational essence of your interests. This is combined with an awareness of what those around you are going through and a reevaluation of your own actions based on the impact they have on others. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Soldier derelict in Duty” which is about you finding yourself trapped in rigid, intolerable patterns of duty and obligation that compromise your personal integrity so you stop operating within these previously binding structure. The Symbol for the Moon is “Chickens Intoxicated”. This is about you realizing that you are making mistakes due to lack of experience or preparation and realizing that you need to step back and go more slowly, getting proper training. Take care to not be over stimulated by getting into that which you don’t know how to handle.
On November 5, the Moon in Taurus was opposing the Sun in Scorpio. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the New Moon on November 20, 2025. This Vibrational Energy Pattern is bringing into focus how the past is impacting the present. There is a need for a rebirth, a renewal of our social understandings recognizing the impact of social understandings on the lives of the people in the society. You are called to operate out of your best understanding when you do not know what the eventual outcome is. You can project possible future scenarios and use those as a guide to your actions adjusting as you get a better understanding of what is unfolding. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Telephone Linemen at Work”. This is about establishing new and more extensive connections between different aspects of yourself and the higher more universal awarenesses. If your communication lines are all tangled up you may have trouble separating truly important information from the distorted awareness that is mixed in with it. The Symbol for the Moon is “Shellfish Groping and Children Playing”. Here you are starting to feel things out, connecting in, groping around and playing, seeking to develop some new ways of understanding and expressing yourself . You are likely to have problems if you are holding onto the issues and habitual ways you have been operating and refusing to try anything new.
On October 21, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 21, 2025. This Vibrational Energy Pattern brings a strong emotional need to develop a greater awareness of the beauty of the connections we all have to each other and how to share gentle energy with each other. There is a growing awareness that we are impacted internally by the way we relate to others. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “Humanity seeking to bridge the Span of Knowledge”. This is about are reaching out to span the generations, being open to the transfer of knowledge from others and seeking to transfer your knowledge to others. There is a warning here about keeping your knowledge as a secret and refusing to share with others for the good of all.
On September 22, the Sun entered Libra. This is the Fall Equinox. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21, 2025. This Vibrational Energy Pattern shows the potential for either deception and betrayal or increased spiritual awareness. There is an underlying awareness of the importanceof personal growth and development and a need to have this expressed more effectively in your culture. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun to Moon distance is “The President of the Country” which has to do with you claiming the authority of your position and accepting responsibility to act in ways that benefit all. There is danger of distortion if you are focusing on a sense of privilege, power and personal aggrandizement.
On September 21, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Moon and Sun in Virgo. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on February 17, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern brings an evaluation of emotional patterns and responses seeking to separate deception and betrayal from the seeking of deep spiritual truth. If you listen clearly in your heart you will know which is which. This is a time for you to focus inside yourself and explore the deeper aspects inside seeking to get past any barriers that keep you from connecting into your unique self and your gifts. You are encouraged to project the current patterns into the future and see what will bring the best results for everybody involved. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “A False Call unheard in attention to immediate service”.This is about the importance of totally focusing on the immediate project or development in which you’re engaged, ignoring all distractions, operating from a state of personal completion and fulfillment. There is danger in you being pulled away from critical tasks, responding to outside interruptions and losing your sense of yourself and your ability to pursue the opportunities available to you.
On September 7, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurs with Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on March 3, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern encourages us to see beyond our emotional reactions to the truth of this moment showing that we must learn to embrace that which we have previously excluded. We are challenged to adjust our visions of the future to see more clearly the possibilities for sudden insights into the deep archaic patterns that are holding us back from realizing our dreams. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Orangutan” which involves sensing powerful primitive distortions deep within you and recognizing the need to refine and guide those forces into more mature expression. It is dangerous in this energy pattern to take for granted your right to do whatever you feel like in life without considering its effect on other people. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Flow of Inspiration” which brings the potential for you to connect into the flow of spiritual inspiration moving through you and out into the world, If you close up and get caught in a cycle of negativity you will find your perceptions limited which will shut you off from others.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Turning Back of Mercury, Jupiter: Reworking of Saturn, Uranus: Turning Forward 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 “!!!”}
