The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Today, Monday (9/26/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Venus joining with Pluto (4*). The strongest vibration today is about flow and interaction with others. There is a special emphasis on being aware of how your actions are impacting those around you This includes a sense of your relationship to your community and thinking about how your community is or is not meeting your needs and bringing you feelings of connection and contentment. If you find your community is not meshing with you, you can think about what community might work better for you and go seek people that you are more compatible with. There is potential for creativity today more when you are working by yourself. There is also the potential for acting effectively and considerately. You may especially feel a need to talk with others and share your views with them. You may find yourself able to express yourself very effectively today. (For VA Students: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
16 (9*) Deep motivations and desires expressed as action
24 (5*) Free-flowing action expressing of your motivations and drives harmoniously

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Venus, Pluto >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are gaining a deeper understanding of the patterns of life unfolding within and around you, recognizing your responsibility to pass this on to others. You are climbing to the heights of the mountains, seeking to make the connections needed to bring a deeper level of spiritual awareness into yourself and the world. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are selfishly focused on maintaining your position of privilege and only deigning to communicate with those whom you perceive as worthy of your notice. 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 here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}

Sep 26 – Sep 28 (exact Sep 27) Mercury in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 5 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 8:56 AM on Sept 27 then decreasing fading out around 9:30 PM on Sept 28. This vibration brings a smooth flow of mental focus. This is a great way to get important projects done.

Sep 26 – Sep 27 (exact Sep 26) Mercury in Virgo is joining with Venus in Virgo. This vibe begins to influence us around 3 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:30 AM on Sept then decreasing fading out around 1:30 AM on Sept 27. This vibration brings real ability to communicate effectively with others. This is a great time to be writing things that you want to share with others, or to speak with others. You will find yourself better able to communicate effectively.

Sep 25 – Sep 30 (exact Sep 28) Mars in Gemini is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Aquarius. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:48 AM on Sept 28 then decreasing fading out around 2:30 PM on Sept 30. This vibration makes it easier for you to do the essential work necessary for you to accomplish the critical projects you are involved in. Use this time to get things straightened out and working better.

Sep 25 – Sep 27 (exact Sep 26) the Sun in Libra is opposing Jupiter in Aries. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 3:33 PM then decreasing fading out around 12:30 PM on Sept 27. This vibration brings an expansion in your relationships to others. This is a great time to interact with others and get to know them better. This is good for socializing because you are more open to new connections that normal.

Sep 25 – Sep 26 (exact Sep 26) Venus in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:46 AM then decreasing fading out around 9 PM. This vibration intensifies your feeling of attraction to that which you find beautiful. The draw could be irresistible. Remember this is not a rational feeling. Also remember that this will only last a couple of days. This often is about relationships and if the relationship is good, this may allow you to enhance it and this will be a blessing. If the relationship is not entirely comfortable, acting now may cause you problems.

Sept. 15 – Oct. 22 (closest position Oct. 4, never exact) Saturn in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is a repeat of a strong pattern that we saw in the last year where there is a focus on doing your own thing and not taking into account the ideas or needs of the rest of the world. This is a very independent, sometimes rebellious, pattern that can tend to be disruptive.

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 8:54 PM, peaking at 10:54 PM, the Moon in Libra is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Gemini. 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.

Starting at 9:44 PM, peaking at 11:44 PM, the Moon in Libra is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Aquarius. This 4 hr period stimulates an internal awareness of the patterns that are working for your long term benefit and those that are undermining your goals. It is easy to shift at this time to a more effective expression related to your goals.

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.}

At 5:54 PM EDT on September 25, the New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon October 25. This vibrational pattern has some contradictions in it. First it is expansive and seeking to act on its motivations and drives. There is a tendency to act without thinking about how other people are going to be affected by your actions. This is likely to run up against the ideas other people have about how the world works. If you are not naturally inclined to be inclusive, this is a time when you may find you have jumped over the edge of the cliff in your relationships with others. So take extra care about your choices right now and realize there is something self-oriented and irrational pushing you to not take others into account. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “The Dawn of a New Day, Everything Changed”. This symbol is about recognizing a new center of awareness within yourself. You are encouraged to embrace a reorientation that causes everything to be changed. The rules are now different and the reactions of others will be different from what you expect. This is especially true if you do not adjust to the changes that are occurring in you and in those around you. If you find you are feeling fear and anger, stop and evaluate and see what the awareness is that you are blocking.

On September 22 the Fall Equinox occurs as the Sun enters Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern involves tuning into yourself and following what is within you rather than seeking to meet external expectations. There is a sense of skepticism about simple pat answers. This comes from a sense of a depth to life with a deep mystery at the very core of life, a mystery that cannot be reduced down to words.. The Sabian Symbol for the Fall Equinox is “An Ancient Pottery Bowl filled with Violets”. This is about basing your pattern on the foundation principles of life. You are encouraged to develop a delicate and beautiful essence that radiates love, peace, beauty and simplicity.

On May 16, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus. This is the end of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse is especially involved with Saturn seeking to focus on that which is essential and of long-term importance and to let go of passing feelings and actions that will not be remembered at a later time. This vibrational pattern involves deep inner work seeking to find the appropriate actions and includes a sense of not knowing and not being able to know all the answers. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Spaniard serenading his Senorita” which calls for you to refocus the assertive/aggressive aspect of yourself, discovering the value of love and gentleness, and seeing the beauty within you and in others. The Moon Symbol is “Indians making Camp”. This symbol is about learning to operate in a new realm where you need to learn the rules for functioning in this place so that you respect the rights of everyone involved.

On April 30, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Taurus. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse focuses on devotion to the beauty of the past with a sense of the importance of direct hands on experience seeking to evaluate what really needs to happen to properly honor the past in the present. The importance of actually taking action to make a more direct involved and beautiful world is especially emphasized. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “Deep-Sea Divers” which is about exploring the deepest realms of your being finding the tremendous pressures that are operating within you calling you to open to new awarenesses of your talents and gifts. Take care to keep in touch with the reality of the world around you as you are probing the depths within you.

The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury, Mars >> Introductory Period of Mars: Turning back of Uranus: Reworking of Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune: Turning forward of 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 “!”}
