The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Monday (9/9/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Venus joining with Mars (1*). The strongest vibrational energy today is oriented towards involvement in communities that are open, exploratory and creative. There is a need to be involved with others in such a community. This involves writing and speaking in beautiful ways and seeking to learn and develop greater levels of creative expression. There is a significant focus on personal hands-on involvement in creative activities. (For VA Students: 25)
The essential principle to guide expression of this vibrational energy is to tune into the universal pattern for your current project and use it as a guide to enable your project to be developed into its purest most effective form. This is accomplished through relationships that connect you and your project and everything involved in the project with everyone free to express their curiosity exploring everything around them.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
25 (1*) Need to participation in an open, creative community
10 (1*) Play and Creative Exploration with Others
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets:, Mercury, Venus, Mars >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are opening the door into this deeper level that has been sealed up exposing the many hidden distortions and illusions within you. You are spontaneously enjoying a playful focus, sharing with others in the present in delight and wonder, finding great creativity unfolding in your life. You are acknowledging the distortions, misunderstandings and illusions that you have been operating out of. You are taking some time out to relax and rest giving yourself time to reflect and process so that you can be refreshed and able to interact with others more effectively. You are setting out to directly experience the world around you, prepared for hardship, looking to understand yourself better and find a place where you can be accepted as you are and operate naturally expressing your genuine, authentic self, rough edges and all, with no restrictions or expectations.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are working desperately to hide from yourself and others the deeper issues within you and failing. You are getting caught up in daydreaming and rejecting any type of serious responsible behavior or, at the opposite pole, you’re rejecting any type of frivolous, light, impractical behavior. You are seeking to justify your distortions blaming others for things that you’re doing. You are getting so caught up and entangled in your affairs that you’re losing any sense of objectivity. You are resenting the hardship and difficulty of your circumstances and refusing to connect in with other people or face yourself even though you are feeling lost and isolated without support in cold and forbidding circumstances.

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}
At 2:50 AM Mercury enters Virgo and is there for 17 days bringing the sense of an attunement to the universal patterns that underlie the projects you encounter around you. There is a need to bring your projects into alignment with their underlying universal models.
All the two planet patterns involve the Moon, see below.
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 5:58 AM, peaking at 7:58 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is opposing Uranus in Taurus. You may be feeling pretty independent right now and more touchy about other people being in control of what you are doing. You will have a tendency to react. Right now you want to do what you feel like doing right this moment and you don’t want to worry about what other people feel about it. Remember other people are feeling the same way and give them the same space you are needing at the moment.
Starting at 9:07 AM, peaking at 11:07 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. 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 11:11 AM, peaking at 1:11 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Capricorn. In this 4 hr period there is an easier connection into deeply buried feelings than at other times. There is an opportunity here to share these deep levels with your friends and to be open to them sharing their deep feelings with you. This exchange can sometimes have a healing quality and reduce the pain within you and your friends.
At 1:25 PM, the Moon enters Sagittarius. The Moon in Sagittarius brings exuberant feelings and a desire to explore your external world and your internal world. This 2 ½ days is a great time to explore someplace you have never been or to learn something new that you have been wondering about.
Starting at 12:49 PM, peaking at 2:49 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius is acting and agitating (square) with Mercury in Virgo. This 4 hr period involves your emotions and moods stimulating your mind and results in you needing to balance your mind and emotions in order to act in clear constructive ways. It is important for you to pay attention to your feelings and your thoughts on whatever is happening now and remember to think before you act.
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 2, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Virgo. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 2, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is permeated with a shared sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction. We are all reaching out seeking beautiful connections to others and more civility in our interactions. There is a sense of a soulful beauty that we could find a way to share together. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Bride with her Veil snatched away” which is about our concealment being ripped away and us each being forced to reveal ourselves and become vulnerable to transformative change. This is about us each making a commitment to open up and relate to those that are around us in a deeper, more meaningful way.
On June 20, the Summer Solstice occurred as the Sun enters Cancer. This pattern will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 22, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings a potential for rebirth of the experience of beauty in our everyday life. There is a challenge to adjust and rebirth our dreams and visions. There is a strong sense of smooth flowing development and refinement of the inner self. This is a time to interact and explore on a deep inner level. This gives the potential for new patterns to form organically within you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun Moon distance is “An Orangutan” which points to each of us sensing powerful primitive distortions deep within us. We are recognizing the need to refine and guide these forces into more mature expression. There is the possibility of distortion if you take for granted your right to do whatever you feel like in life without considering its effect on other people.
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.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory Period for Jupiter: Turning Back of Uranus: Reworking of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Forward of Pluto: Resolution of Mercury {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 “!!!”}
