The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Monday (9/7/2026), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Venus joining with Mars (1*). This vibrational energy is about joining with others in interaction and exploration of your areas of interest without an agenda. This is a playful creative process that often brings an organic understanding of the area(s) you are exploring. You want to get deeply involved in creating beauty through natural processes. This pattern brings new exciting understandings that are shared with everyone in your group. For VA Students (25)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by you going on an adventure where you are looking into the far distance and seeking something amazing that is making connections that are not obvious seeing the underlying oneness that joins everything.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Venus, Mars >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are seeing the beautiful façade that you have learned to present to the world and realizing that there is something dark and distorted that it is concealing. You are reaching out to span the generations, being open to the transfer of knowledge from others and seeking to transfer your knowledge to others. You are sensing powerful primitive distortions deep within you and recognizing the need to refine and guide those forces into more mature expression. You are being hungry and blocked and opening up to help from a mother spirit recognizing that you need a greater awareness and strength than you have in order to penetrate through the barriers and find the nourishment you need.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are focusing on the beautiful façade you have learned to display and insisting that that is all there is, refusing to see the hidden darker levels below it that are potentially out of control. You are holding onto the traditions passed on to you, refusing to share, seeing yourself as one of the select few who has the true knowledge. You are taking for granted your right to do whatever you feel like in life without considering its effect on other people. You are refusing help from others, seeking to do it all by yourself and gradually getting weaker and weaker.

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}.
Jun 11 – Oct 30 (exact Jul 25 and Sep 15) Neptune in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:26 AM on Jul 25 and at Sept 15 both during the retrograde finally fading out around 3 AM on Oct 30 This vibrational energy pattern brings a potential for shared passion and purpose. You are seeking the people who share your vision and sense of purpose and calling in order to work together.
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 1:01 AM, peaking at 3:01 AM, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Mercury in Virgo. This 4 hr period brings a focus on thinking and communicating those thoughts, so writing down your thoughts, and possibly communicating what you are thinking about in a discussion or just sitting and thinking for a while would be profitable. This has the emotions and the mind interacting well and is a good time to work on important projects.
Starting at 7:39 AM, peaking at 9:39 AM, the Moon in Cancer is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Libra. This 4 hr period brings a desire to feel beautiful. You will probably be more aware of your appearance and the appearance of the world around you. You may be moved to make something around you look nicer.
At 12:49 PM the Moon enters Leo and for 2 ½ days it brings a feeling of wanting to develop and express yourself as a unique individual not necessarily in a broad sweeping dramatic fashion. You will also enjoy the unique individual expressions of others around you.
Starting at 4:31 PM, peaking at 6:31 PM, the Moon in Leo is opposing Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period you may connect into deep, even ancient feelings, within you if something another person does triggers you. Be aware of this potential and if it happens study what comes up and work on releasing it. If you respond directly to the other person, you are likely to over-react. This can be a powerful wave of energy that washes over you. You may need to walk away from the situation to keep from dumping this old energy on another person.
Starting at 4:41 PM, peaking at 6:41 PM, the Moon in Leo is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Aries. This 4 hr period takes you into your dreams, they are living inside you and you are feeling them. You may find yourself daydreaming more than usual. You can use this time to get deeply in touch with your dreams and draw inspiration from them to help you make them more real.
Starting at 8:23 PM, peaking at 10:23 PM, the Moon in Leo is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Gemini. In this 4 hr period you are wanting to share spontaneous exciting experiences with your friends and companions. You need the freedom to be able to impulsively do what you feel like in this moment.
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 September 4, the Third Quarter Moon Phase was reached with the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Virgo. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on September 10, 2026. This Vibrational Energy brings a tendency to see past patterns and history as beautiful. This may bring feelings of nostalgia for the past. This is combined with an awareness of ways in which your groups are not really meeting the needs of the people in the group. This brings a tendency to be looking for ways that the group can change to better meet the needs of the people involved. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bride with her Veil snatched away” which has to do with having your concealment ripped away from you, being forced to reveal yourself and become vulnerable to transformative change, as a result of commitments to opening up and relating that you have made. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Topsy saucily asserting herself” which can represebt asserting your independence, openly expressing the deeper feelings within you, in defiance of the expectations of those around you.
On August 28, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on February 20, 2027. This Vibrational Energy carries a strong drive to take action expressing your emotional feelings. You are seeking to communicate beautifully and effectively in the moment expressing spontaneous feelings. On a deeper level you may feel the call to probe deep inside of yourself and see if you can make a connection with something that reaches beyond your personal levels of experience. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A man dreaming of fairies”. This points to learning to see the invisible and effectively penetrating into deeper and more mysterious levels of yourself and of what is around you through your imagination; reintegrating with the rejected aspects of yourself and your world. The Symbol for the Moon is “A church bazaar” which encourages you to release your customary restraints and preoccupations and gather together the many bits and pieces of yourself to form an organized structure that can operate temporarily for the benefit of others.
On August 12, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Moon and Sun in Leo. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on February 6, 2027. This vibrational energy is focused on communication of deep purpose and awareness in your own unique way. This is about moving beyond the boundaries of common society seeking something better while creatively expressing your unique vision. There is an indication here of the possible restructuring of society with new boundaries. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “Chickens Intoxicated” which is about making mistakes due to lack of experience or preparation and learning from this to step back and go more slowly; getting the proper training. There is a danger here of seeking stimulation from that which you don’t know how to handle, being thrown for a loop, staggering around as if you were drunk on the energy you have received.
On June 21, the Summer Solstice occurred with the Sun entering Cancer and the Moon in Virgo. This Energy will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 22, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern brings a searching for a new way of experiencing life where there is a more balanced harmonious relationship between people. There is a recognition that you have to take the risk of acting based on your inner sense of what needs to be done without knowing if you will be successful. You project the outcomes of different actions but must then choose what you sense is best for you and those around you. The Sun Moon pattern of the Summer Solstice has the Sabian Symbol “A Woman and two Men on a bit of sunlit land facing south”. This encourages you to be flexible and open, seeing clearly how you can make appropriate choices to act either in the realm of Spirit and the realm of Matter as appropriate. If you are not flexible you may feel that you are being torn apart by the competing needs within you, disconnecting and isolating yourself with a devastating sense of ineptitude and estrangement from everything around you.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Venus >> Introductory Phase of Venus: Turning Backward of Uranus: Reworking of 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 “!!!”}
